Game 3: TCU at Michigan Preview

Michigan looks to bounce back tonight (6:00 p.m., FS1) against TCU at the Crisler Center. The Wolverines fell short on Sunday against Wake Forest in Greensboro and now get a second shot at a high-major foe early in the non-conference slate.

The Horned Frogs start four transfers, including former Wolverine Frankie Collins, and rely on another to play a critical role off the bench. They’re off to a 3-0 start with wins over Florida A&M, Florida Gulf Coast, and Texas State. Dixon’s squad is picked to finish in the middle of the Big 12 pack and has made the NCAA Tournament for three consecutive seasons.

Dixon was once known for a bruising, methodical style of play but has shifted to a more uptempo style over the last two seasons. Despite a roster overhaul, this trend looks on track to continue this year.
