MBBA GAME #25 VS MICHIGAN @ MICHIGAN 530 PM CT BTN GAME THREAD





This is such a big game in so many ways to shape the stretch run. Winnable/losable game on the road against a pretty good team. This team has not shown the ability to put two games together back to back and they are coming off just about a perfect game performance. In fact, about the only time I can remember NU basketball teams in recent years putting together back to back great efforts was the final three games of last year. Now would be a good time to find some of that mojo.
 




'The Skinny' (from another site :redface)
  • Nebraska Men's basketball has never won a game in Ann Arbor, 0-11 lifetime. The closest they've been is 6 points, including last season losing 85-79
  • Both coaches have sons on their respective teams. Fred Hoiberg's son Sam plays for the Huskers while Juwan Howard's sons Jace and Jett play for Michigan
KenPom Analysis: Michigan doesn't turn you over and doesn't generate a ton of fouls which is good news for Nebraska.

The Skinny:
Nothing like a win to get the Husker faithful from wondering if we will replace the coach to wondering if we could actually make a post season. Winning on the road in this conference though is no small feat and it will be one for the record books if Nebraska can nab their first ever win in Ann Arbor.

Nebraska will try and cover Dickinson with at least 2 guys tonight and the plan will be to try and scramble on 3pt shooters. I think it will be about how well Nebraska can shoot at the crazy thing is that with Lawrence and Hoiberg playing is that it's picked up. Suspect that Michigan will key in on Tominaga after he went off for 30 so it will be up to the rest of the team to manufacture points. Thus far the Huskers have struggled to score over 60 on the road. (not counting their OT win over Minny)
Prediction: Michigan 72 - Nebraska 59
