                Huskers Shoot for Season Series Sweep at Michigan Thursday

The No. 21 Nebraska women’s basketball team hopes to continue its strong Big Ten play in February while shooting for a season series sweep at Michigan on Thursday. Tip-off between the Huskers and Wolverines is set for 6 p.m.

 

Nebraska heads to Ann Arbor riding a four-game winning streak that began with an 84-51 win over Michigan in Lincoln. The Big Red surge included a win at Iowa and an overtime win at Wisconsin, before the Huskers notched a win over No. 24 Michigan State.

 

Nebraska has opened February with three straight wins, stretching its February winning streak to 11 games. NU’s last February loss came at Michigan State in 2012. Last season, the Huskers worked their way to a 57-39 win over Michigan in Ann Arbor. Nebraska is 13-4 overall and 7-2 on the road in February as a member of the Big Ten.

 

Last season, the Huskers went a perfect 7-0 in February to cap a 10-game winning streak that started with their 19th game of the season. Nebraska’s current four-game winning streak also started with its 19th game on the schedule. Over the last four games, the Big Red have outscored their opponents by an average of 77.8 - 61.0.

 

Michigan carries a 15-9 overall record and a 6-5 Big Ten mark into the season series rematch with Nebraska. After the loss to Nebraska, Michigan dropped a 16-point decision to Minnesota in Ann Arbor before rebounding with a 70-68 road win at Northwestern However, the Wolverines lost their third straight home game 65-56 to Purdue, despite leading the Boilermakers by 14 points in the first half.

 

Michigan is shooting 44.7 percent from the field and a glossy 38.1 percent from three-point range. The Wolverines are also shooting 74.8 percent from the line, including 76.8 percent in Big Ten play.

Do you think it is disheartening to teams that barely get 1000 fans in the stands to come to Lincoln and see the 5000+ in the stand night in and night out ? I mean don't you think it is hard to play in an arena that is that empty.

I'm going to say the 'reported' attendance was 5,500. Seems like every team reports 5k even if there's obviously 200 people in attendance.

I looked it up last night and Michigan reported 1100 and some in attendance, even when they played Michigan State i think they only had somewhere like 2500 in the arena. I think Nebraska has to leading the league in attendance.
