Penn State men’s basketball is a long shot to win the Big Ten tournament, but you can’t win the whole thing unless you win game one. Penn State will take to the court for its first Big Ten men’s basketball game on Wednesday evening with a matchup against Minnesota.
The Nittany Lions are the No. 11 seed in the Big Ten tournament, while Minnesota is the No. 14 seed. The Gophers slumped their way to the bottom of the tournament bracket in a week that saw Nebraska go on a surprise tear to end the year on a hot streak, which included a blowout victory at Penn State last week.
Penn State and Minnesota split their two regular-season meetings, both occurring within a week of each other after rescheduling one game. Each team won on its home court, leaving this game seemingly up for grabs on a neutral court.
Penn State is favored in the game, albeit by a slight margin. Here’s all the information you need to know about following the game Wednesday evening.
