What channel is Michigan vs. Penn State on today? Time, TV schedule for Wolverines game

Head coach Juwan Howard of the Michigan Wolverines reacts against the Minnesota Golden Gophers during the first half at Crisler Center in Ann Arbor on Thursday, Jan. 4, 2024.

Michigan basketball's struggles continued Thursday, with Juwan Howard's Wolverines fizzling out against Minnesota in conference play to lose 73-71.

The team will try to bounce back Sunday against Penn State, which is also licking its wounds after being routed by Michigan State on Thursday. The Nittany Lions are "hosting" Michigan at the Palestra in Philadelphia, hoping that a whiteout can tip the scales.

Though football is the dominant dish in Ann Arbor this week, a Michigan-Michigan State doubleheader on a relatively quiet Sunday could be just the palate cleanser fans need.
