Anyone know where the Huskers baseball team was picked to finish the BIG?

I believe they were picked behind Maryland and Michigan.

They get tired, still. I'm ok now, but they will be a little sore later on. No complaints; there are many more worse off than I am, for sure.

Sorry I let you down this weekend.

Congratulations to the team! NU's first Big 10 title in one of the "major" men's sports.

BIG TEN CHAMPIONS
The Huskers are the Big Ten regular-season baseball champs after a 21-3 drubbing of Penn State. Five Huskers had at least three RBIs apiece, and Jake Meyers threw six innings of one-hit ball.

(We are all so proud of you guys! Keep it going!!

GO BIG RED!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[CrnhskrBob]

We all should let the B1G network know his disappointed it was that Nebraska playing for the title was not available to watch. Instead, we had MSU-UM playing for something like 5th and 9th place. Big10 Plus wasn't available? Why have I seen the UM spring football game about 14 times, but can't catch Nebraska baseball winning the league title?

Well, like I said earlier, "because we are the red-headed stepchild"?

 

[CrnhskrBob]

Thanks. I sure wish that I could have joined in today. Would have been a lot of fun.

Sit back with a cool one, read the thread, and you'll be just fine!! Yell loud enough for you neighbors to hear?

Cornhuskerbob, I have not been around much this year to comment on the game threads, but I really appreciate everything you and all the other pbp'ers do during all the games. One of the main reasons I became a paying member many years ago was because of the Baseball forum. This year was a bad one for me but a good one for the Huskers.
