The Huskers (9-8, 3-2 Big Ten) look to bounce back after dropping an 91-85 setback at Michigan on Saturday. The Huskers shot 56 percent from the field and enjoyed a 29-23 advantage on the boards, but allowed Michigan to shoot 54 percent from the floor and get to the line 30 times - the most by a Husker opponent this season, vs only 5 trips to the line for the Huskers.
Tai Webster posted career highs with 28 points and nine rebounds against Michigan, hitting 12-of-20 shots from the floor and chipping in four assists. On the season, Webster is second in the Big Ten in scoring at 18.3 points per game while also ranking sixth in assists at 4.1 per game and adding 5.2 rebounds per game.
