Nebraska @ Michigan

Current Records: Nebraska 11-13; Michigan 13-10

What to Know

The Nebraska Cornhuskers have been on the wrong side of a one-way rivalry with the Michigan Wolverines and are hoping to record their first win since Jan. 18 of 2018. Nebraska and Michigan will face off in a Big Ten battle at 6:30 p.m. ET Wednesday at Crisler Center.

The Penn State Nittany Lions typically have all the answers at home, but on Sunday the Cornhuskers proved too difficult a challenge. Nebraska was able to grind out a solid victory over Penn State, winning 72-63. Guard Keisei Tominaga took over for Nebraska, finishing with 30 points (a whopping 42% of their total).

Meanwhile, the Wolverines bagged a 77-69 win over the Ohio State Buckeyes on Sunday. Michigan's center Hunter Dickinson did his thing and posted a double-double on 26 points and 11 boards.

The Cornhuskers have to know they'll be fighting an uphill battle given the 11.5-point spread they are up against. Those betting on them against the spread shouldn't have high expectations for them since the squad is 5-11 ATS when expected to lose.

Their wins bumped Nebraska to 11-13 and Michigan to 13-10. Tominaga will be someone to keep an eye on after he shot 5-for-10 from downtown and finished with 30 points on Sunday. Let's see if he can build on that strong performance or if Michigan's defense can bottle him up.
