Beyond the O.U., Jewish groups decried the actions of the settlers but mostly avoided mentioning the Israeli government or its leader.

Even as the Eagles went up 5-0 early in the first quarter, Michigan learned and adjusted in real time. Heading into the second quarter, it led 6-2. Mulholland scored his second of the game after the Wolverines’ ball movement opened up some space for him to take a shot.
