Yeah, that's awesome getting Cal to come to NU.

Greg

I didn't even notice that they are only playing CU twice. Â I have a feeling that is b/c CU has plenty of OOC opponents willing to make the trip to Omaha.

Post by **nebugeater** » Tue Sep 06, 2011 8:50 am

The schedule as it is shown on Huskers.com has Nebraska and CU playing three times. This is what I had seen posted elsewhere too.

April 10 in Lincoln
April 24 at TDA
May 8 at TDA

0-2 for the season so far.

They had a 3 run lead going into the 9th tonight and ended up losing 10-8.

Post by **nebugeater** » Mon Feb 20, 2012 6:19 am

0-3 now with game 2 and 3 both being lost with a lead going into the 9th and a rally in the 9th by Gonzaga.

Lot of season ahead but a bumpy start.

I'm guessing they'll finish 4th in the B10 and its going to be a rough season...

Awesome comeback with 2 outs in the 9th to win 8-7 and finish the weekend 4-0.

Great weekend for the team! Â There is a really good opportunity to enter the Cal series at least 8-4 on the year.

Greg S · Post by **Greg S** » Tue Feb 28, 2012 10:49 am

It was a nice weekend for NU baseball. Â Can't wait to go to Haymarket and catch a game or two next month.

Greg

Greg S · Post by **Greg S** » Sun Mar 04, 2012 12:18 pm

Nice win again for NU baseball yesterday. Â Can't wait to make the trip to Haymarket. Â Also planning on catching a couple games of theirs at TD.

Greg

Home opener today against Kansas State. Â First pitch at 2:05. Â Weather in the 70's on March 6 is too much to pass up. Â Leaving work at noon and taking in my first baseball game of the season this afternoon!!!!

Linkin5 · Post by **Linkin5** » Tue Mar 06, 2012 9:02 am

Wish I could be there!

Pretty cool to sit down in my seat at Haymarket and see six tower cranes spread across downtown Lincoln from Memorial stadium to the new arena and seems like everywhere in between

Some of what I saw at the game today.

4100+ people came out to the game today in Lincoln on March 6. Hit about 70 deg too.

Here is a quick and dirty pano of what the stadium looked like at the end of the first inning.

Yes, Â Deff. brighter, larger and HD. Â Guess it was installed last week. Â Underused for today but I can see it having BIG potential. Â Old video portion was still 4X5 Ration too.

Great Shots Nebugeater!

l-dude · Post by **l-dude** » Wed Mar 07, 2012 8:46 am

Nebugeater...I would have been in your pano Haymarket shot, in section 110, just beyond 1st base with all my old/new K-State "friends", but I was stuck in concession stand line for almost the first two innings. (First game at TDA Park last year was the same... huge lines) Wanted to sit them out, but what's the ballpark experience like without ballpark food, especially on opening day? Also, couldn't pass up the promise of a March game with temps in the 70's (!), but in our prairie city ballpark with wind gusts of 15 to 20 mph (my guess) blowing in from outfield, the wind chill must have been in the low 50's. That still didn't stop Kiser (Husker, for those that don't know) from hitting the 2 run HR over center-field fence! Al-in-all, a great first home game.

Greg S · Post by **Greg S** » Wed Mar 07, 2012 11:55 am

No way they could have anticipated that big of a crowd for an afternoon weekday game. Â Temps obviously were a huge factor but either way 5k was awesome.

Love to see the new scoreboard, looks great. Â TO has done such a great job on facilities. Â

It is amazing how much construction is going on in downtown Lincoln now. Â Nice to see.

Greg

Greg S · Post by **Greg S** » Fri Mar 09, 2012 11:55 am

If NU keeps winning, there could be a couple huge crowds at McStadium for the NU/CU games. Â I'm planning on going to both.

Greg

Post by **nebugeater** » Fri Mar 09, 2012 12:59 pm

In Lincoln. For the first gage of the Cal series today. Who would have thought the weather would feel as good as Tue. Little cooler but less wind and full sun today!

Greg S · Post by **Greg S** » Fri Mar 16, 2012 1:16 pm

Nice to see NU get another win, this one over La Tech.

Greg

Greg S · Post by **Greg S** » Sat Mar 17, 2012 11:48 am

Wow, NU just destroyed La Tech in the 2nd game of the series. Â Been awhile since we hung more than 20 on a division 1 team, especially one from the deep south.

Greg

Other than the Gonzaga series they have exceeded my expectations.

Post by **nebugeater** » Sat Mar 17, 2012 5:30 pm

11-4 win for game 3 against La Tech. Â Was there today and they are playing with much more of a killer attitude than the last couple of years. Â La Tech it not the strongest in their pitching but they are above the fold IMO. Â To win 3 and have a chance of 4 of 4 tomorrow is a great run. Â Building some decent wins and it is going to take everything with the Big 10 RPI. Â Ill to open Big 10 play in Lincoln next weekend.

Greg S · Post by **Greg S** » Wed Mar 21, 2012 9:04 am

I'll take 3 of 4.

Purdue is now ranked 17th in the country. Â Will be interesting to see how we do against them.

Greg

Greg S · Post by **Greg S** » Tue Mar 27, 2012 5:03 pm

If starting pitching continues to develop NU could be very dangerous. Â We have some kids that can tear the cover off the ball. Â Good thing is...we are a pretty darn young team. Â Future looks bright!

That's good to hear. I'm always looking for solid bandwagon opportunities. I'll keep an eye out for this one. ;)

Bad loss for NU against Northwestern. Â They are not good and the Husker's played sloppy d.

Hated to see NU lose the opener to Iowa. Â Glad to get game two. Â Hopefully we get the series today.
