Game Preview
The Nebraska Cornhuskers (15-6) take on the No. 6 Wisconsin Badgers (16-4) on February 1 at Pinnacle Bank Arena.
Wisconsin comes into the game with a 16-4 overall record and an 8-1 conference record. They had a poor start to the season, going down to Tennessee and Providence. After that, they would win 6 straight games until losing to a team ranked first in Arizona. They have taken 9 of them since then, losing only one when traveling to Penn State. Despite the close game, they would lose 87-83. Wisconsin entered their encounter having won 2 straight, but they ended up winning 3. They defeated the Spartans 66–81. Steven Crowl, who scored 15 points and pulled down 7 rebounds, and AJ Storr, who scored 28 points, were the main forces behind Wisconsin’s victory. Although Crowl didn’t do anything to advance Wisconsin’s position in their last game against the Golden Gophers, the same cannot be said for this game.
Nebraska, meanwhile, has a record of 15-6 overall and 5-5 in conference play. They have pulled off an upset in the Big Ten despite losing 5 games in league play. They gave Purdue just 1 of their 2 conference losses, defeating them 88–72. The 2 teams have previously faced each other. On January 6, they faced off, with Wisconsin winning 88-72 after controlling the game for nearly the whole duration. Nebraska struggled in their last game after dominating to 83 points the previous game. Their loss against the Terrapins, 73-51, could not have come at a worse time. Considering that’s the lowest number of points Nebraska has scored this season, the outcome shouldn’t be shocking. Nebraska had trouble getting the ball back on offense and ended the game with just 3 offensive rebounds, which may not have come as a surprise considering the score. In that area, they were completely destroyed by their rivals, as Maryland grabbed 17 offensive rebounds.
