Michigan Wolverines head coach Dusty May pulled a "genius" coaching move before the Final Four on Saturday night.
Michigan topped Arizona in blowout fashion in the Final Four. The Wolverines are off to the national title game, where No. 2 seed UConn awaits. The Final Four is being played at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis this year.
The massive NFL domes can be tough to shoot in. Teams will typically struggle to shoot the ball in the major, cavernous venues. It will often take a lot of time for teams to warm up inside of the venue..
But that wasn't the case for Michigan.

Prior to the Final Four, May had Michigan's players practice inside of the 100,000 seat Michigan Stadium. The football stadium provided an ideal practice backdrop for the Wolverines' basketball players.
It ended up working out.
Michigan shot the ball better than everyone else at the Final Four this year.
May praised for 'genius' coaching move
May knew what he was doing, apparently.
Michigan ended up shooting 44 percent from the 3-point line, better than everyone else in the Final Four.
Michigan and UConn are set to tip off at 8:50 p.m. E.T. on Monday night. The game will air on CBS.
