The No. 3 Michigan Wolverines destroyed the No. 24 USC USC Trojans 96-66 on Friday, despite ugly shooting numbers and multiple injuries.

Michigan struggled from deep in the matchup, shooting 6-for-30 from three-point range and 31-for-65 overall. Luckily for them, defense was anything but a struggle against the Trojans.

The Wolverines forced 21 total turnovers, completely deflating USC’s offense.

Morez Johnson Jr. had a spectacular night for Michigan with 29 points and six rebounds while shooting 10-for-12 from the floor.

Michigan improves to 13-0 with the victory while USC falls to 12-2.
