Another crazy game - for us to have 11 left on base and NW to have 1 almost never happens in an extra inning game.

 

For us to manufacture a run in the 10th without a hit is exactly what this team is all about. The offense was pretty putrid most of the day, but we found a way. 

 

10 road wins before April 1 makes the NCAA selection committee take notice.

 

Teams that want to win a conference title have to find a way to collect the W multiple times when things aren't going quite right. We probably fit that criteria a couple of times this weekend.

 

Road conference sweeps are hard, and NW is going to beat some people the rest of the season - perfect way to start the B1G race.

Nebraska at 20-5 is a legit threat to host regionals. Really need to make-up that K-St. roadie. GBR Always.

RE: Black unis, I don't think it was a middle finger to Trev. They still wore the road greys and black unis last year. I'm a little sad that it seems the road greys have been put away. Love that classic baseball look. I do like wearing a specific jersey for a sweep game though. It kind of gives a bit of a psychological edge to a team in a way. I'm encouraged they'll still do that since they did the black socks and hat but probably didn't do the full jersey because Northwestern was wearing their black/dark jerseys. 

 

If they wanted to stick it to Trev they'd go back to the skinnier N hats....

 

I have been enjoying this team very much so far. Ready to get back out there for some home baseball this weekend after missing last home series due to a spur of the moment trip to Memphis.
