Following Sunday’s back-and-forth triumph against the Penn State Nittany Lions, Marisa Moseley’s Wisconsin squad (5-13, 2-6 Big Ten) faces the Nebraska Cornhuskers (13-4, 2-4 Big Ten) in Lincoln on Jan. 27.
The two teams last squared off in January 2021, with Nebraska beating the Badgers in a 84-68 blowout. With a 2-12 mark since 2012 and 2-8 record in their last 10 matches against Nebraska, UW aims to add another conference win and reverse their track record against the Cornhuskers on Thursday evening.
Led by Amy Williams, the 2018 Big Ten Coach of the Year and two-time Summit League Coach of the Year, the 2020-21 group went 13-13 and clinched a WNIT playoff berth.
