ohiocornhusker Posted May 26, 2019 Share Posted May 26, 2019 I knew we would lose as soon as I trash talked the buckeyes with my classmates..... 1 Quote Link to comment
Comish Posted May 26, 2019 Share Posted May 26, 2019 The immutable laws of mathematics should dictate an OCCASIONAL call going our way! However, when hitters are ZERO for the game with runners in scoring position...it's hard to use the Umps as an excuse. So many of our strikeouts are by LOOKING, you'd think the coaches would be basically reminding them we've got plenty of Lookers...if you want to participate....Be Agressive! They grind with other aspects of the game, and congrats to reaching the championship game, but it's frustrating to watch them go down with the bat on the shoulder so many times. 1 Quote Link to comment

Typical Nebraska sports loss 19 minutes ago, SouthLincoln Husker said: Good tourney, but 3 SO to end the game shows our teams main issue. We need a hitting cosch. Over the previous 11 games (before today), we averaged 6.9 runs per game which would have been roughly Top 15 among Power 5 schools over the season. BUT LOOK AT THIS ONE GAME THE REINFORCES MY NARRATIVE!!!! 1 Quote Link to comment
unl123 Posted May 27, 2019 Share Posted May 27, 2019 So many walks. Nobody can hit Quote Link to comment
VectorVictor Posted May 27, 2019 Share Posted May 27, 2019 The upside to this loss is that it likely knocked Michigan out of the NCAA Tourney. The B1G is getting four teams in: Indiana, Illinois, Nebraska, and Ohio State. I doubt we’ll get five, and Michigan is the first to get cut. Regardless, this loss underscores the need for a hitting coach replacement. The lack of patience at the plate today, coupled with the lack of power and copious amounts of strikeouts underscores this. 1 Quote Link to comment

BUT LOOK AT THIS ONE GAME THE REINFORCES MY NARRATIVE!!!! We were given 13 or 14 free passes against Michigan. As I have been saying, since bolt left our hitting numbers have gone down every year with this being the worse. 1 Quote Link to comment

And had several games against lesser opponents - where they boost their numbers - cancelled? 1 Quote Link to comment
Apathy Posted May 27, 2019 Share Posted May 27, 2019 Can anyone explain how the lower seed team gets home field? Why do we even seed teams if the higher seed team isn’t the home team in the championship game? 1 Quote Link to comment

It would not be overturned because they use such low definition cameras. There was no way to prove anything conclusively. Quote Link to comment
