Eric the Red Posted May 24, 2006 Share Posted May 24, 2006 Huskers to Battle Baylor at Big 12 Championship Lincoln - The Nebraska baseball team will begin play in the Phillips 66 Big 12 Championship at the AT&T Bricktown Ballpark on Wednesday, May 24, when the Huskers battle the Baylor Bears in the opening game of the tournament at 10 a.m. The Big 12 Championship format has been modified this season to feature pool play, in which the eight teams that qualify for the championship are broken into two pools based on seeding. The Huskers, who received the fourth seed in the championship, are in a pool with top seeded Texas, fifth seed Baylor and eighth seed Texas Tech. The other pool will feature Oklahoma State, Oklahoma, Kansas and Missouri. A team will play one game against each of the other three teams in their pool, and the team with the best record in each of the pools will advance to Sunday’s 1 p.m. championship game. If two teams are tied in pool play, the tie will be broken based on first on head-to-head competition and then on seeding, with the higher seed advancing. The Huskers will continue play on Thursday in an 8 p.m. matchup with Texas Tech before concluding pool play on Saturday in a Fox Sports (Ch. 37 in Lincoln-Time Warner and Ch. 47 in Omaha-Cox) nationally televised contest with top seeded Texas at 1 p.m. All three Nebraska games can be heard live on the Pinnacle Sports Network and on the internet at Huskers.com.
