The Nebraska basketball team looks to rebound after a difficult loss to Michigan on Sunday, when the Huskers travel to Purdue for an important Big Ten matchup.

Tipoff is set for 11:01 a.m. at Mackey Arena and the game will be carried nationally on BTN (Ch. 610 on DirecTV, Chs. 439 and 9500 on Dish; Chs. 2, 1333 on Time Warner Cable) with Chris Denari and Shon Morris on the call. The game will also be available online and on mobile devices on BTN2Go.

Sunday’s game will also be carried across the state on the 27-station Husker Sports Network with Kent Pavelka and Matt Davison calling all of the action, including flagship stations KLIN (1400 AM/94.5 FM) in Lincoln and KFAB (1110 AM) in Omaha (complete list of affiliates is on page five of the game notes). The game can also be heard on Huskers.com and is available on the Huskers’ app on iOS or android devices, as well as Sirius and XM Radio.

The Huskers (8-7, 0-3 B1G) battled Michigan to the wire, but were unable to get the go-ahead basket in the final seconds of a 71-70 loss against Michigan Thursday night. Derrick Walton Jr. hit a driving basket with 23 seconds left to give the Wolverines a one-point lead. The Huskers had two chances in the final seconds, one on a drive by Terran Petteway and a tip in from Leslee Smith just before the buzzer, but both shots rolled out and Nebraska suffered its first loss at Pinnacle Bank Arena.

Nebraska shot a season-high 53.1 percent against Michigan after shooting just 33 percent in losses at No. 22 Iowa and No. 3 Ohio State and out-rebounded the Wolverines, 26-20, but were done in by 13 turnovers which led to 21 Wolverine points.

If Nebraska is to get its first Big Ten win of the season on Sunday, the Huskers will need to continue to rebound well. Entering Big Ten play, Nebraska was out-rebounded by 2.4 boards per game, while the Huskers have turned that around in conference action, grabbing 2.3 caroms per game more than their opponents.

Nebraska will also need a strong effort from their backcourt, as Ray Gallegos, Tai Webster and Deverell Biggs combined for 30 points on 11 of 19 shooting in Thursday’s loss to the Wolverines.

Purdue (10-5, 0-2 B1G) has been off since an 82-79 loss at Minnesota last Sunday, as the Boilermakers look to avoid their first 0-3 Big Ten start since 2005-06. The Boilermakers, who are 8-1 at Mackey Arena this season, are led by Terone and Ronnie Johnson, as the brothers combine for 25.3 points and 6.2 assists per game. In addition, sophomore center A.J. Hammons averages 8.6 points and a team-best 7.1 rebounds per contest.
