HuskersNC949597 Posted March 26, 2016 Share Posted March 26, 2016 I'm confused, everything I see on WarrenNolan.com and Boydsworld.com has us around 41 or 42 after tonight's W? Still a good bounce-back. Quote Link to comment
BigRedBuster Posted March 26, 2016 Share Posted March 26, 2016 Ok, I think Nebraska is 14-7 on the season and 12-1 over last 13 games. The offense has been awakened and are showing their power. So...question to people who follow husker baseball more than me. How good is this team? Did they get off to a bad start and now have started rolling to what is going to be something special? Or, are they playing through some teams that aren't as good as what is coming? Quote Link to comment

Just don't have definitive reliable guys that you know will close games. While winning 12 of 13 is very impressive, we haven't played the heftiest competition during that stretch. Not a cupcake either, but I think we learn more about this team when we play Illinois next weekend, at Michigan in a few weeks, at Michigan State later. Even against Creighton, who is having a really solid start to the year. Would love to see this team keep it rolling. Quote Link to comment

Agreed...though to add to that, Purdue is one of the worst offensive teams in the B1G, and we gave up 11 in two games to them. Our offense and defense appears to be on track, but our pitching has derailed. I'd love for us to get all three things on the same page for once; it's maddening how we have one or two phases locked down, only to be derailed by a third we had nailed down the prior season...

PaulCrewe Posted March 27, 2016 Share Posted March 27, 2016 Need to sweep today. Purdue is not very good. This conference us such a crap shoot this year. Hell Iowa, who was beaten by UNO, is on the verge of sweeping Maryland at Maryland. The same Maryland who just went out to California and took down Fullerton. Show up and take care of business. As for the question as the two previous posters said it's a combination of both probably. Love that the bats have heated up early this year, but the questions with the pitching staff are unsettling. We could see seven innings of one hit ball just as quickly as another 15 walks issued.Trotting some Youngins out there, hopefully they grow up throughout the year. Quote Link to comment

Mavric Posted March 27, 2016 Author Share Posted March 27, 2016 Can't complain too much after winning 13 out of 14, though. Quote Link to comment
HuskersNC949597 Posted March 27, 2016 Share Posted March 27, 2016 4 errors today But a sweep Get Howell back in the fold and leave certain bullpen guys out of the weekend picture altogether. Quote Link to comment
C N Red Posted March 28, 2016 Share Posted March 28, 2016 4 errors today But a sweep Get Howell back in the fold and leave certain bullpen guys out of the weekend picture altogether. Unfortunately you cant just leave certain bullpen guys out of weekends all together or you will quickly get a lot of tired arms. The bullpen guys have to get better, period. Lets hope they can get something figured out. Quote Link to comment

Creighton has a good pitching staff statistically, but they are just numbers and regardless of who they have played it still an accomplishment. Quote Link to comment

mbhusker13 Posted March 29, 2016 Share Posted March 29, 2016 I was trying to figure out what he was looking at when he saw 29 earlier this week. My best guess is that he saw the NPI (Nolan Power Index) earlier last week. The NPI has us at 34 I believe as of today. Quote Link to comment
