Nebraska basketball looks to right the ship against Purdue

Saturday afternoon basketball is upon us as Nebraska basketball takes on 15th-ranked Purdue in what should be an exciting start to the weekend. One team still has a lot to play for, while one team can play the role of spoilers.

Nebraska basketball did not have a great game at all against Penn State on Wednesday. It looked like they were sleepwalking. They fell behind early and never recovered. James Palmer lead Nebraska basketball in scoring with 24 points on the evening. He shot seven-of-20 from the field and nine of 13 from the free-throw line.
