The Huskers (5-4) look to snap a two-game losing streak following a 68-55 loss at Indiana on Saturday. The Huskers got off to a quick start, building an early double-figure lead, but cold shooting from beyond the 3-point line proved costly..... Nebraska stayed in the game with its best defensive performance of the year, holding Indiana to a season-low 40.4 percent shooting, while the 68 points matched the Hoosiers' lowest offensive of the season. The Huskers have been solid defensively in 2021-22, holding eight of its nine opponents to below 45 percent shooting from the field, including five to under 40 percent.
The Huskers will need another strong performance as Michigan (5-3) comes to town following a 72-58 win over San Diego State...... The game features two of the Big Ten's best freshmen in Nebraska's Bryce McGowens and Michigan's Caleb Houstan. McGowens is averaging team-bests in both scoring (17.3 ppg) and rebounding (6.9 rpg), as he leads all Big Ten freshmen in scoring and is second in rebounding. Houstan, a preseason All-Big Ten selection, is averaging 9.8 points and 4.6 rebounds per game and had 17 points in Michigan's win over the Aztecs.
