A Michigan team that has won just two games since Christmas wraps up its regular season at home on Sunday (noon, BTN) against Nebraska. The Wolverines will honor their seniors, play their final 40 minutes of regular season basketball, and close the book on a season that everyone is eager to move past.
Nebraska arrives in Ann Arbor with plenty to play for. The Cornhuskers have struggled away from home — winning just one Big Ten road game all season — but have a chance to wrap up an NCAA Tournament bid and earn a double-bye in the Big Ten Tournament.
The first meeting was one of many non-competitive road defeats for the Wolverines. Michigan fell behind 43-13 with over five minutes left to play in the first half and was dominated in every facet of play. Sunday will be one final chance to go out on a more positive note in a season that started brightly but fell woefully short of expectations for the last three months.
