How to Watch Indiana Basketball Against Nebraska Wednesday

Indiana continues the 2023-24 season on Wednesday against the Nebraska Cornhuskers at Simon Skjodt Assembly Hall in Bloomington, Ind. Here's how to watch, game time and TV information, the point spread and over/under, the coaching matchup, series history, predicted score, stats, rankings and more.

BLOOMINGTON, Ind. – Indiana is back in action Wednesday at 8:30 p.m. ET inside Simon Skjodt Assembly Hall against Nebraska. 

Coach Mike Woodson and the Hoosiers have lost six of their last eight games and most recently suffered a 76-72 home loss to Northwestern on Sunday. Now they look to avenge their January loss at Nebraska, which comes to Bloomington after a pair of home wins over Michigan and Penn State. 

The Cornhuskers are currently projected to make their first NCAA Tournament appearance since 2014, and winning their first Big Ten road game of the season would certainly help them get off the bubble.
