you say that like DBU is a bad baseball team... DBU is a VERY solid ball club.....
Based on their sweeps of Oakland and Siena who have a combined 2 wins between them? Or a 2-1 series against Binghamton who also only has 1 win? Their schedule is horrifyingly bad. Nebraska should not be having trouble with Tech like this, but I suppose it happens.
based on the fact of actually following college baseball and knowing about their team and their coach.. they aren't in a conference and it is very difficult for them to get a tough schedule. Should Nebraska be losing? IMO no. But this is the 1st big 12 series and it's on the road. The question mark coming into the year was our pitching, and it is proving to be so. Top to bottom, the big 12 is probably THE best baseball conference this year.
They scheduled Rice and TCU. And got beat by a combined 19-6. I know what Newman helped build there was impressive considering, but from what I see they've not yet advanced past being cannon fodder in a regional for better teams. Like Creighton in basketball.
Toss in being swept by Northridge, this is very atypical performance by Tech today this season.
