Good morning and Arbor, Michigan.

Happy Wednesday, everybody.

It is Wednesday, January 28th, 2026.

This is the Michigan Insider.

This is the Big 1050 WTK online at the Big 1050.com.

And our Michigan Wolverines got a big win in the Big 10 last night, 75, 72, the third

ranked Wolverines over the fifth ranked Nebraska Cornhuskers. Michigan 19 and 1 on the season,

9 and 1 in Big 10 play in Nebraska's first loss of the year. They are 20 and 1 on the season, 9 and 1 in the

Big 10. And it was not pretty. It it was not easy but Michigan got the job done

and now it is on to the next which of course is on to Sparty coming up on Friday night

Sparty had a tough one last night they were in they were at Rutgers and it took uh they went to

overtime last night they ended up winning the game last night but they they, it went to overtime, 88, 79. Tom, who's quite critical of his team last night, which, yeah, well, I guess he actually shouldn't really be all that surprised. So last line in the Big Ten, big win by the Michigan Wolverines to set up the matchup. And of course, Michigan State getting their win as well.

There's now a three-way tie atop of the Big Ten Conference. Three teams sitting at 9-1.

Michigan, Michigan State in Nebraska, followed by Illinois at 8-1. And then after their

lost last night at Indiana, Purdue lost last night to their rival on the road. Purdue is

and 3 in the Big

10. So it looks like you have, at least for the moment, you have a four team separation at the top

of the Big 10, but Michigan and Nebraska just played each other. Michigan and Michigan State

are about to play each other and then we'll play each other on the last day of the regular season.

That game could be a massively important game. And of course, Michigan's got their matchup with Illinois coming up soon for Illinois.

They have Nebraska coming up on Sunday.

They go to Nebraska this coming Sunday.
