Michigan rides nearly perfect second half offense into an easy win at Nebraska. The Wolverines move to 18-7 (8-4 B10) on the season and will host Illinois on Sunday. Full post game coverage (including video, photos and analysis) coming shortly. For now, here’s your post game thread.
Michigan travels to Nebraska tonight for its first Big Ten game against the Cornhuskers. Tip off is scheduled for 8:30 p.m. (eastern) with Eric Collins and Shon Morris on the call. The Wolverines look to remain undefeated after a loss while gunning for their second road win of the 2011-12 campaign. Follow along and participate in the comments section below before, during and after the game this evening.
Pre-Game Reading:
We’re now a week into February, and March is slowly but surely creeping into view. We’re at the point in the season where every regular season game means that much more, especially for teams fighting to get off the bubble or battling for a conference championship. With a win at home against Indiana Wednesday and a loss in East Lansing to Michigan State Sunday, the Wolverines still are in good position for a solid seed on Selection Sunday. Most experts still have Michigan slated safely as a four or five seed in their projected fields of 68.
With a very manageable end to the conference schedule – Michigan’s final four road games are against Nebraska, Northwestern, Illinois and Penn State, all teams at the middle or bottom of the conference standings – the Wolverines could greatly improve their conference record and garner some solid road wins. Conversely, if Michigan doesn’t take care of business against teams that it should, the slide down the S-curve could be just as quick.

Michigan heads back on the road tonight for the fifth time in six games, this time to face the Nebraska Cornhuskers. Road games in the Big Ten are never easy but this match-up could provide the Wolverines with the slightest bit of reprieve. This will be Michigan’s first game against a team ranked outside of Ken Pomeroy’s top-100 since the calendar turned to the year 2012 and the Wolverines have played six of their last ten games against against teams ranked in Pomeroy’s top 10. Nebraska is ranked in the 129th slot by Pomeroy’s metrics and holds an 8-6 home record on the season.
Glenn Robinson III Guides Comeback
Robinson led Lake Central to a big come from behind 60-59 victory over East Chicago.
The elder Robinson had 11 first-half points and shot 5-of-8 from the field, including three monstrous dunks that sent the building into a frenzy.
EC Central (8-8) was up 11 in the middle of the third, but Lake Central and Robinson took over after that. The LC senior star and Michigan recruit went on to score a game-high 26, including two free throws to break a 56-56 tie with 1:10 left.
Scout.com’s Evan Daniels is a big fan of Robinson, noting that he underrated him originally. (Photo: Jeff Paschen)
