hskrfan4life Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 Since the Baseball season starts this weekend against Gonzaga in Peoria, AZ. What are everyone's predictions? Will we make it to Omaha this year? Will we win the Big Ten? How about regular season title? I think we will sweep the Big Ten and make it to the Tournament but fail to make it to Omaha. The schedule looks like this: February Feb. 17, 18, 19 vs. Gonzaga in Peoria, AZ Kleberg Bank College Classic Feb. 24, 25 vs. Utah in Corpus Christi, TX Feb. 25 vs. Texas A&M Corpus Christi Feb. 26 vs. UNLV March MArch 6 vs. Kansas State-H March 7 vs. UNK-H March 9-12 vs. Cal-H March 13 vs. South Dakota State -H March 15-18 vs. Louisiana Tech -H March 20-21 vs. Northern Colorado-H March 23-25 vs. Illinois-H March 27 vs. Kansas State -H March 30-April 1 @ Northwestern April 3rd @ Kansas State April 6-8 vs. Iowa-H April 10 vs. Crieghton - H April 13-15 @ Ohio State April 20-22 vs., Purdue - H April 24 vs. Creighton -A TD Ameritrade Park April 27-29 vs. CSU Bakersfield - H May 5-7 @ Indiana May 8 vs. Creighton -A TD Ameritrade Park May 11-13 vs. Minnesota -H May 15 vs. Wichita State -H May 17-19 @ Michigan May 23-27 @ Big Ten Tournament Quote Link to comment
Jaybird Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 I tend to think we should be able to handle the B1G early on but hope we can recruit and maintain the talent level to dominate the conference for the long run. I hope our success forces the conference to up the ante and put more focus on baseball improving the talent and reputation of the B1G. Experts are not as confident as some are putting us near the top but not winning it. I really hope we can come in and show that we are superior. If not I will be dissapointed. Quote Link to comment

Omaha-Husker Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 Where is the Big Ten Tournament? Columbus. Quote Link to comment
95huskers Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 They should have the tourny on a circuit so we can get it in omaha once every few years Quote Link to comment
Omaha-Husker Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 Well they signed up Columbus through 2012 before Nebraska was a member so Omaha should be in the running in the coming years. Columbus has a pretty nice stadium also. It's no TD and Omaha would probably double the crowds they get in Columbus, but it is far more central. Quote Link to comment
95huskers Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 i know that omaha isnt central local, but what team wouldnt want to play their conference championship in the home of the CWS. i dont think it needs to be there every year and im sure the MVC has tournys there as well, but i do know that they move around their conference as well.. Especially some of those teams and kids in the B1G that will never play in omaha have a chance to. Quote Link to comment
huskrplaya Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 I think we will win 6 of our conference series, get 2nd place in the Big 10, win the conference tournament and lose in a regional championship. I will be happy to go 2-1 against Gonzaga and split with Cali. Quote Link to comment

huskered17 Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 When I was a kid, we didn't even think about Neb having a baseball team, about the only time the program was talked about, was when the college world series was going on. That changed when we started winning in the Big-12. It would be special if the program can get back to doing that, in the B1G. At least now the kids know there is something besides waiting for the football season to start. There are a lot of top football schools that have good baseball and basketball programs. I could just not figure out why we couldn't do it. Title IX is used as an excuse a lot, but we weren't doing it before that came along anyway. I think we have started to turn the corner on this, at least I hope so. GBR!!! Quote Link to comment
