Top 10 University of Michigan basketball teams of all time
9. 1976-77 (26-4)
Led by second-year forward Phil Hubbard (19.6 PPG, 13 RPG) and senior guard Rickey Green (19.5 PPG), the Wolverines went 16-2 in-conference and waltzed to a Big Ten title. U of M outscored the opposition by over 11 points per game. Coach Johnny Orr’s team advanced to the regional final in that year’s NCAA Tournament.
That special 1976-77 season ended 3/17/77, 43 years ago today, U-D losing a close game in the Sweet 16 to #1 Michigan. I was there, greatest college basketball experience of my life! Here’s the cover of the game program. pic.twitter.com/vrCUaXN7Fg
