Nebraska and Michigan State basketball are meeting on Friday night in Lincoln for what’s being called “the biggest game in program history” for the Cornhuskers.
Is that a little dramatic? Potentially, but Nebraska doesn’t exactly have a ton of history.
The Cornhuskers are 13-0 and playing the best basketball in school history, beating some quality teams over the past month to jump all the way to No. 13 in the polls. In fact, the Cornhuskers beat Creighton by 21, then beat Wisconsin by 30, and then went on the road to take down a really talented Illinois team, 83-80, in a shocker.
