seaofred92 Posted May 20, 2017 Share Posted May 20, 2017 I know its been covered in the game thread for PSU but it deserves its own thread. Congratulations, Huskers! First conference title since 2005: 2 Quote Link to comment

Pasadena Husker Posted May 21, 2017 Share Posted May 21, 2017 I gotta hand it to 'em for playing a complete game to end the regular season. so great to see Erstad and the players so excited after their conference championship. Quote Link to comment
ColoradoHusk Posted May 21, 2017 Share Posted May 21, 2017 Great way to wrap up a conference championship. I know that a lot of people on this board want NU to compete for CWS appearances and titles, but I don't know if we will ever see that again. Let's be supportive of the team and congratulate them on earning conference championships, regardless of what happens in the NCAA tournament. 1 Quote Link to comment

Outside of about 4 or 5 years, Nebraska baseball is now where it's always been: competitive in the conference with an appearance in the Regionals. Outside of the 3 CWS appearances, I think they've been to one Super Regional, right? Quote Link to comment
Mary Pats BOB Posted May 27, 2017 Share Posted May 27, 2017 Choked hard trying to win the real conference title. Wish I could say I'm surprised. Quote Link to comment

Savage Husker Posted May 27, 2017 Share Posted May 27, 2017 I mean, congratulations on winning the regular but considering how they backed into title plus another dismal tournament showing, MPBOB isn't wrong. Also, from here on out it is tournament ball and can't rely on another team to carry them into the next weekend. Quote Link to comment

Don't the first weekend of conference games count the same as the last weekend of conference games? Quote Link to comment
Huskball Posted May 27, 2017 Share Posted May 27, 2017 Nebraska went 10-2 in the last 12 regular season conference games. They did not back into the title. Hopefully, these couple days of extra rest for the players (especially pitchers) will turn out to be a good thing before Regionals. All of the NCAA baseball projections have us squarely in still today, not on the bubble. 1 Quote Link to comment

All of the NCAA baseball projections have us squarely in still today, not on the bubble. I fully expect Michigan and Nebraska to be in... but we were playing for a higher seed and hosting. Neither of that will happen now...but honestly this may be for the best if we want a deep tourney run. Quote Link to comment

Not sure if we are a 2 or 3 in a regional now. Our RPI dropped to #43 because of Big 10 Tournament Michigan/Nebraska/Maryland and Indiana make it IMO unless someone else steals a bid Quote Link to comment
