Omaha-Husker Posted April 20, 2012 Share Posted April 20, 2012 Lose tonight win the weekend. I need to see a better Friday performance before I can start predicting wins on Fridays. Quote Link to comment
Hoosker Posted April 20, 2012 Share Posted April 20, 2012 Wish I could go tonight, but I'll be stuck at work until 8. Hopefully I can make it for either Saturday or Sunday. I'm liking what I've seen out of Erstad and this group. This is a huge series and quite a measuring stick for us! Quote Link to comment
HuskerHacker Posted April 20, 2012 Author Share Posted April 20, 2012 I was so tempted to turn back my umpiring schedule tonight but need the money for kids schooling. Grrrr!!!!! To bad it didn't rain last night/this morning so the softball games at Dill were canceled. Quote Link to comment
Lyons in the Sea of Red. Posted April 20, 2012 Share Posted April 20, 2012 Well lose tonight. Hopefully the crowd can get into the Purdue players and give us a shot. Quote Link to comment
HuskerHacker Posted April 20, 2012 Author Share Posted April 20, 2012 Silva to Keller >>>> you listen to me Jon, this is your night, your coming out party. You own this mound, this turf, this game. Nobody and I mean NOBODY hits your rock tonight. Tonight you split the air with this rock. Tonight the catcher's mitt is on fire with every thud. Tonight the batters, they will see but not and let me emphasis NOT be able to touch this rock. Tonight is your night. No folding, No excuses, Tonight you put yourself in the heads of the batter tonight you'll hear the roar, tonight you'll feel the chill and tonight tonight you'll OWN THIS PARK!!!

Comish Posted April 20, 2012 Share Posted April 20, 2012 It's game day and therefore I feel compelled to post a pregame prediction so here it is. I think Keller gives up 4 earned runs, 2 unearned I think Lemke gets 5 outs without giving up a run. I think Vogt throws 2 scoreless innings (7th and 8th) I think Huber enters with a 1 run lead and I think the skers win this one. Scoreboard at games end: Purdue ....... 1 2 2 1 0 0 0 0 0 - 6 Nebraska .... 0 0 1 0 2 2 2 0 x - 7 anyone else willing to post a prediction? I predict we lose tonight because of too many walks. BUT, I predict we come back strong Saturday and Sunday and win the series......generate momentum into Tuesday vs Creighton. So, 3 of next 4 would be ok....(love the sweep, but can't predict it) Quote Link to comment
HuskerHacker Posted April 20, 2012 Author Share Posted April 20, 2012 lol, believe it or not but suddenly i have an itch on my butt Quote Link to comment
huskerswrkhavoc Posted April 20, 2012 Share Posted April 20, 2012 Purdue is good, in fact they are "very" good. I don't think they've been tested on the road though and this will be a true test for them. I also think if they played Wichita State now the outcome would likely be different but then who knows and really, who cares? Score board shows a split. sker's win this series and they hold destiny in their own hands. Lose it and they likely don't see post season play unless they win the auto qualifier. I much prefer we hold our own cards, yes? Or, The Huskers win this series and still need to win the tourney for the auto qualifier.... Likely not. Even if we lose the series to Purdue, a strong showing the rest of the way will help us get picked by the selection committee. LOL wow. You realize we are playing in the Big TEN not the Big TWELVE right? LOL...yes, I do realize we're in the Big 10 now. Do you realize that selection committees look at more than just RPI when they pick teams and that there have been high RPI teams selected before? Yes, I am quite aware that a team with a high RPI has been taken before, but our RPI will be astronomical compared to at large teams. You realize a high RPI is in the 50s? Ours is 71 going in to this series. Quote Link to comment
95huskers Posted April 20, 2012 Share Posted April 20, 2012 i just have one thing to say Jon, STRIKE THIS MUTHA ............ OUT!!! Quote Link to comment
HuskerHacker Posted April 20, 2012 Author Share Posted April 20, 2012 it will be momentarily improved after this though. Purdue doesn't hurt our rpi. Creighton however and the remaining schedule is pathetic. Creighton at 196 Bakersfield at 156 Indiana at 133 Michigan at 216 Wichita St at 80 Minnesota at 128 remaining rpi average after Purdue = 151.50 (its killing our chances) Quote Link to comment
