(AP) -- Michigan's continued dominance at home has placed it in the thick of the Big Ten race, but it's going to have to start playing better on the road to stay there.

The 11th-ranked Wolverines go for their fourth straight win Tuesday night when they visit Northwestern.

Michigan improved to 15-0 at home with a 56-51 win over then-No. 6 Ohio State on Saturday, moving into a tie with the Buckeyes for second place in the conference, one game behind sixth-ranked Michigan State.

Freshman Trey Burke had another impressive game with a team-high 17 points - including a game-clinching runner with 11 seconds left - while Jordan Morgan added 11 points and 11 rebounds for his first double-double.

The win was the team's fifth over a Top 25 opponent and third against a top-10 team. Michigan's ranking in Monday's AP poll is the highest since it was No. 8 on Dec. 30, 1996.
