You can bet that if we make it to Sunday... with it being memorial day weekend... I'll be doing everything in my power to get the Mrs. to go to Omaha with me and the kiddos.

This can't be said enough. Even I go through a lull after baseball season and prior to football season/early basketball season.

I know we are upset with how we did in the midweek. However, credit where it’s due… taking care of business on the weekend was refreshing this year.

2 seed means afternoon games both Tuesday and Thursday (should we win Tuesday)

Our inability to win slugfests doesn’t bode well for post season.

What sucks about Maryland is we now only have 1 team (Illinois) who will be a Q1 neutral site game. So can't boost that metric much in Omaha. And even then, the Illini are 1 bad loss away from a Q2 neutral site game.

Unknown what MSU does today. Nothing to play for, so it could be a pack it in game or they could rally as this ends their season.

Purdue just gave up a Grand Salami. Looking like Illini will take Game 2.

Of note: we play the earlier game tomorrow rather than PU/Illinois. Should the Boilers win tonight, we could put quite the pressure on Illinois tomorrow.

Wow. Maryland will officially miss the B1G tournament.

Great job all the way around tonight. Put em away like a good team does.

Randomly came across this on Twitter. Seems like a guy that Rob could work with but the raw stuff is there.

Illini hang on. Only us and Illinois can win the B1G regular season title now.

Did what we needed to do. Bats were off, but Sears and Clark combine to give up just 1 run.

Michigan and Hoosiers split. Best they can do is tie for title. Penn St beats Maryland and those two are now tied for 9th. Maryland at legit risk of missing Omaha.

We’ll know a ton before the nights over! Just win our game and then peek at the league.

B1G teams still in action yesterday with mid-week games. Finals look like the below.

A chance at a “get right” series at the plate. A lot for both teams to play for. Huskers still have a legit shot to win the B1G and MSU a legit shot to make it to Omaha. very much a chance that these two teams could meet in the 1st round in Omaha as well.

B1G Remaining Opponents Illinois: @Purdue Nebraska: @Michigan State Purdue: Illinois Indiana: Michigan Iowa: Non-con Michigan: @Indiana Mich St: Nebraska Maryland: Penn St OSU: @Rutgers Penn St: @Maryland Minnesota: @Northwestern Rutgers: Ohio St Northwestern: Minnesota - B1G Tourney Eliminated: Rutgers, Northwestern - B1G Tourney Clinched: Illinois, Nebraska, Iowa - Could still win regular season title: Illinois, Nebraska, Purdue, Indiana, Michigan Series Notes: Every final series has some type of B1G tournament implications. From just sneaking in to winning the regular season title and capturing that #1 seed! - Purdue needs a sweep for a chance at a title. Illini need a sweep to ensure title. - Nebraska needs a sweep and Illini loss, 2/3 and Illini 2 losses or 1/3 and Purdue sweep. MSU is in a 3 way tie for the final two spots AND PSU/Minny are just a game back. They’ll be fighting like hell this weekend. A sweep for them ensures their ticket to the B1G tourney. - IU/Mich are both tied in the standings and a sweep for either could put them in position for a share or outright title. Both need at least 1 win to ensure B1G tourney. - Iowa can’t move up, but did enough to clinch Omaha. - Maryland is in that 3 way tie for the last spot and PSU is just a game back. A series win for PSU ties them with Maryland. A PSU sweep leapfrogs UMD. A TON of implications in this one! Maryland is a legit shot to miss Omaha should they lose 2. - OSU is in that 3 way tie mentioned above. Rutgers is already eliminated. Do the Scarlet Knights show any fight in their last home games and overall games of the year? OSU would love a sweep here. - Golden opportunity for the gophers as they end the season with NW at home. NW is already eliminated. A golden opportunity for the gophers to sweep. A series win for Minny has them feeling ok, but a sweep would have them feeling a lot better. Watchability Rankings: 1. Illinois/Purdue 2. Maryland/Penn St 3. Nebraska/Michigan St 4. Indiana/Michigan 5. Gophers/NW 5. OSU/Rutgers Last: Iowa… always Iowa.

That’s a huge series win and, while it makes things on Friday that much more frustrating, it keep us in the title hunt!

Dropped off a cliff.

Christo, Brockett, Walsh-- lot of options. Start someone who you believe will give you the best chance at 3 scoreless innings. Our O will have to be on their game.

Wasn't who I was expecting him to leave one hanging to, but I'll take it!
