Will have to sit this year but still a good get.

Good, now let's show up this time around. Michigan State is a team very similar to us in terms of talent but their coaching and discipline has been head and shoulders above us the last two years.

Huskers win! 7-6

Placzek back up the middle, Schleppenbach scores! 1st & 2nd, no outs for NU!

Ryan Boldt chops it up the middle, off of pitcher's glove, Schleppenbach advances and Boldt is safe!

Schleppenbach doubles off the wall! One on, no outs!

Ugh, huge mistake by Lubach by trying to make a double play on the strikeout, ball skips into the outfield and the Jays' runner on 3rd easily scores. 6-6 going to the 9th.

Yikes.

He had been hit and miss on the Husker Legends Show on 93.7 The Ticket since the season ended so I figured he was under the weather. Didn't know anything was too serious, though.

Wow. Rest in peace, Ade

Hey if two times isn't enough for you to film it, then you don't deserve it
