Nebraska basketball has a new date on the schedule.

There has been a schedule change for Nebraska basketball. As the Big Ten looks to reschedule games for Nebraska as a result of their pause for COVID-19, one new date came out on Wednesday.

Nebraska basketball will take on Penn State next Tuesday, with the time to be determined.

As Nebraska continues to go through their conference schedule, this game could be one that could benefit Nebraska. After losing to Maryland on Tuesday night, they face the Terrapins again on Wednesday. Their first conference win of the season came against Penn State on Sunday.

This could be exactly what Nebraska basketball needs in order to get back on the right track. With good performances by Teddy Allen among others, Nebraska was able to put their dubious losing streak to an end. Aside from just Nebraska winning the game, it was a fun basketball game to watch. Both teams played extremely hard, and that made for a fun afternoon of basketball.

As Nebraska looks to finish out this conference schedule, this game could be a momentum-booster. There is no doubt that this Nebraska basketball team has been playing better in recent days, and they are starting to look like more of a team than a collection of individual players. Their rotations have been better defensively, and they are playing with more energy now than they have in the past couple of months. That is exactly what I want to see.

I’ll be interested to see how Nebraska plays in this game. They played well on Sunday, and now they have another shot at getting a victory. This game is coming at the right time for Nebraska. With the team playing better, and a victory already in hand against Penn State, this could be exactly what they need. I can’t wait to see how they do.
