Hope the Huskers can play some decent ball this weekend.

Weak fly ball after weak fly ball by batters.  Making a very average pitcher look like a Cy Young award winner.

We are dangerously close to using our last life.  Michigan State looks so much better than us.

[brfrad]

How do you hit the runner in the back of the head?  This team has to be one of the worst Nebraska teams in the last 25 years.  We are so fundamentally bad.

They had an 80-1 horse win the Kentucky Derby.  The horse had better odds than Nebraska does of winning this game tonight.

30 loss season.  30 losses.  Wow.

Visibly this team was identified as "bad" from the first series of the year...literally the first series.  There were some good games and some bright spots, but they simply never had the right mojo. 

Too bad, so sad.  Hopefully the heavy influx of juco players will provide the talent, character and chemistry that will propel us forward next year.

It seems that there is no fire in the bellies. And maybe they thought that with the season last year everyone would lay down. I just wonder what the turnover will be.

We have already witnessed a couple players sent packing.  I am guessing we will see at least an additional 4-6 wave bye-bye.

Amazingly enough... there is still SOMETHING to play for today.  Have to win these next two and have Purdue get swept.

Purdue doing their part

WINNER WINNER CHICKEN DINNER!!!!!!!

Watch-- we're going to win tomorrow and Purdue will have their game canceled.

Big hit by Matthews saves the day and the season!  The best game this season by Matthews.  Showed what he could do when locked in.

 

I was watching the broadcast on Nebraska Media, and they were talking about the chance of thunderstorms in Indiana tomorrow.  If they made Nebraska and Illinois go 8 hours on Sunday to get the game in, they better do everything to get the Maryland/Purdue game in.  Not only did they make Nebraska stay at the ballpark forever, they then made them spend the night, and bus back home on Monday.   Knowing the Big 10 from the previous years, they will call the game once the 1st rain drop falls.

[brfrad]

I wonder what Michigan State's motivation will be now that they are eliminated from the Big 10 tournament.  Of course, the same could be said for Maryland, now that they won the Big 10 title.
