In a matchup involving two of the top point guards in men's college basketball, it was Michigan's Daniel Horton who earned the spotlight Tuesday, Feb. 21, scoring a career-high 39 points to lead the Wolverines to a 72-64 upset of Dee Brown's No. 8-ranked Illinois squad in Crisler Arena. Horton scored 25 points after intermission as Michigan overcame a 34-30 halftime deficit to post its first win over a Top 10 team since 1998-99. Courtney Sims added 11 points and Graham Brown had 10 rebounds for U-M (18-7, 8-6 Big Ten).
