Kelly error will cost us this game..... typical... we don't deserve post season play. Choking again!

The question is, would you rather see us lose to Minnesota now (going 2x2 with them on the season) or win and then get beat by tOSU for a 4th time this year? Face it, we can't beat either Indiana or tOSU especially on the road and without a proven starter.

I am cheery

Just removed the rose colored glasses... Never did I think the cupboards were this bare but we are seeing exactly how bare they were. Mike Anderson ruined the program and the players that were willing to play for him, well.... it was more that NU was the only D1 offers me thinks.

Lol... another loss, not that surprising tbh.

Game over... not going to touch their closer..... and with deleon hurt, we are out in 3. Illinois will win tomorrows game..

Bryan Peters... what a joke at bat that was swinging at a pitch that was in the middle of the opposite box.... another anderson D3 recruit.

If Chad and Company would have actually cared enough to focus this year the attendance would have been much higher. I had every intention of being in the twin cities for the tourney but not when we've given away games as often as we did this year. Lost interest almost from the start (following the La Tech series). The attendance will sky rocket next year "if" the returning team can actually play with a little more zest then this team does. No way was I going to risk $1K on watching us go 3 and out. tOSU 8 - NU 2 ... << My game prediction.

The Oregon Ace is a Nebraska Native too..

10 Karissa Hovinga RHP R/R 5-9 So. Ralston, Neb. (Papillion) (Frozen Ropes Fury)

umm... 19-9 in "our" park.... I'm not confident that we can even give up less then 10 runs let alone win. It's really sad to think how bad we "can" be at times and yet how good we've been (Arkansas games) at times.

 

That's baseball for ya. No chance they score that many runs again.

Guarantee they score more then 6 runs.. Oh wait... Kubat is starting, ok, they score 2 through 7 innings and then 10 in the 8th and 9th... We lose a 12-10 barn burner.

In Honesty, I cringe at the thought of having to hope for a victory as I know its senseless to hold out hope of winning the tourney.

lol.. i give us a less then 50% chance of winning... Maybe we should throw bummer for 2, DeLeon for 2, Kubat for 2, Vogt for 1 and Roeder 2 to close... maybe we can win a 9-8 game. Obviously I'm being sarcastic but really, who is confident that we can win today?

My disappointment is with Ted Silva. Not one NU pitcher made the 1st-3rd team All-Big Ten teams! Seriously, can anyone name me ONE pitcher who has improved during the last 2 years? Injuries happen, and it's a contributing factor, but to me, there is no excuse for Silva having to put way too many innings on Vogt (and sometimes Roeder), because he hasn't developed anyone else who can consistently throw strikes out of the bullpen!

Wow!!!

I think Silva was handed a totally empty cupboard and has done wonders with what he was given. The change-up is finally part of the arsenal, he's not afraid to throw strikes early and the young arms looked more impressive then the seniors... Silva IMO, should be applauded for the job he's done.

Wrong... flatwaterfan is sugar coating the season and not rationally seeing what others have. The players brought in by Erstad and Co. are simply better then what Anderson could bring in. Anderson and his arrogant, weasel like expressions and dishonest character left this team talentless.. I respect the seniors for coming back and trying but I will not pat them on the back and tell them lies. Chad is at best a AAA ball player (probably a AA tops). None of the senior pitching staff has even a chance in H3LL of seeing AA let alone AAA ball. There was a reason the writers and coaches had this team picked 4th to begin the season. They "KNEW" our talent sucked.

Saying goodbye, good riddens and good luck at the next level suggests they have a chance at the next level. THEY DON'T!!!

Husker's win Kubat's start and lose the rest... No Heart, No Talent, No desire, No focus and definetely, no hope of advancing so do us all the favor and end the season watching from the sidelines. Once the season ends it opens up room for young players that hopefully, if nothing else, have heart.

All the apologist here make me laugh while at the same time frustrate the h3ll out of me. The fact is this. We aren't the worst team in the B1G but we ARE the modt pathetic. Why? Because this team has a fan base that cares. A fan base that will support through all the ups and downs. A fan base that shows up in horrid conditions to give support and this team gives nothing back. Are you flippin kidding me? We won one... that's right JUST ONE home series in the BIG...... JUST FLIPPIN 1. If that's not pathetic with the fan support given then maybe I need to reconsider what the sporting definition of pathetic is. WE WON ONLY 1 FREAKING HOME SERIES (Northwestern). Good riddens seniors... Take your losing is acceptable attitudes with you when you leave... Who here thinks we can win 4 games in the tourney? I predict we win 1 (kubat's start) is it. These seniors don't care and really don't want to win.... let them punch their tickets and move on. Hopefully with their LOSING attitudes so Erstad and Co can start rebuilding with winners.

I'm going to save myself the heartache and demoralizing humility of watching the sker's give another game away and instead go to a movie with my kids... No doubt in my mind at all that we lose this series "tonight"... They don't have any heart and even less confidence then the fans do. Staff will give up 9 runs again tonight and Michigan will throw some nobody tomorrow and give us the win.

LOL.

 

Probably a good thing you didnt watch. With a 9-2 lead to start the 8th, we walked(?) the bases loaded and then proceeded to give up a grand slam to make it 9-6. haha. Luckily we held on thought.

The funny part is that I turned the tv on just before the grand slam... it happened and I shut boob tube off. Lol

lmao ... I jumped after the la tech failure... They caught me with the Arky miracle but then body slammed my arse back to the ground at the Ameritas Classic. (cry)

lol... I'm so black and blue from all the heart breaks (ex: Michigan 7 NU 5) that I feel like I've freaking jumped/landed/climbed the steps and jumped again.

Lol.... just end this atrocious excuse for a baseball season.... we are so far from just a 500 team. Not 1 player that played for us today has even the slightest shot at aaa ball. Our best player is Kelly and he's at best a reach to see aaa.

This team (if it can be called that) s.u.c.k.s!

Headley SCREWED us in the first... Couldnt lay a bunt down. Crap fundamentals AGAIN are getting old.

This is by far the worst team nebraska has fielded since maybe the early 90's... Thanks for all you did mr. Arrogant arse Anderson. I don't see reson one for this team to get post season play. They are horrible. Especially in crunch time.

our only chance is to win the big tourney and get the auto qual... however, I find myself asking if I personally feel as though they deserve a chance to play in the post season.

We have one (only 1) pitcher that is even comparable to what Dave V was able to recruit. Kubat is the only pitcher with stuff capable of throwing at the D1 level.

Darby to lead off:

1st pitch strike

2nd pitch up and outside

low, 2-1

foul, 2-2

foul, 2-2 (5 pitches total)

foul, (6 pitches)

ground ball out (7 pitches) acceptable at bat by Darby

Peters batting:

1st pitch strike

2nd pitch strike (swinging)

ball, 1-2

ball, 2-2

pop-up, (5 pitches)

Lubach up:

1st pitch ball

ground ball hit, first of the game

Sang up:

1st pitch strike

low, 1-1

swinging strike, 1-2

swing K, (4 pitches total)

Better plate discipline, did produce a hit but this is sad... Seniors not doing their part.

I think Silva is afraid to pitch to these hitters.... Our pitchers are intimidated by Indiana's bats and is why Bummer threw more pitches in the first inning alone then Indiana's pitcher has the entire game.

That said, ground out on a 2-2 pitch.

1st and 2nd, 2 outs.... amazingly, the team that is disciplined at the plate has a 2 run lead. Go Figure
