Michigan basketball knew at the start of Wednesday's practice that Charles Matthews wouldn't play Thursday night against Nebraska.

For a team that has struggled to establish depth all season, that could've been an issue.

But it wasn't. The Wolverines (25-4, 14-4 Big Ten) had no trouble with Nebraska (15-14, 5-13) in an 82-53 blowout, leaving coach John Beilein happy as his team approaches the end of the regular season.

“That was a great way to end the home season here," Beilein said postgame.
