Nebraska baseball fall 11-6 to Spartans, finish second in Big Ten regular season


Nebraska baseball (34-19, 16-8) fell a game short of a series sweep and a shot at the share of the Big Ten regular-season title with an 11-6 loss to Michigan State (23-27, 10-13). The Big Red leave East Lansing with another series win, winning 12 of their 14 weekends in the regular season.

Despite the disappointment of falling short of the Big Ten regular season title, Nebraska baseball clinched second place in the Big Ten Regular season. NU still has a chance at the Big Ten Tournament title. The Huskers will battle No. 7 Ohio State in the first round of the Big Ten Tournament at 2:00 p.m. CT on Tuesday, May 21 in Omaha, Nebraska.

Heard on 1620 Nebraska's current RPI is 31. So it sounds like regardless of how the team does in the Big 10 tournament they will be in the NCAA's, most likely as a 2 seed.

I have felt like they are solid in the NCAA regionals for a while. Hosting is off the table IMO and it is about where they land as a 2

NU had a pair of baserunners in the bottom of the seventh after Anglim’s pinch-hit one-out double and a two-out walk to Rhett Stokes, but the Huskers couldn’t cut into the deficit, leading to Ohio State’s 15-2 run-rule win in seven innings on Tuesday night.

Nebraska takes on sixth-seeded Purdue tomorrow in an elimination game tomorrow night at 7 p.m. at Charles Schwab Field in Omaha.

Nebraska just beat Purdue 6-2. They did much better tonight than they did last night. So Purdue's out.

I have a funeral on Friday afternoon, so I won't be able to attend the Friday session in my pair of seats with this view. If someone is interested in my pair of tickets at a reasonable price to cheer on the Huskers on Friday, please PM me.

It's the bottom of the 7th and Nebraska's up 6-3. After what happened on Tuesday night, how Ohio State just shellacked Nebraska, I was expecting a repeat of that. But no.

UPDATE: Now it's the 8th and Nebraska's up 9-3. Incredible! I think it's safe to say they're going to win this one.

Bottom of the 3rd and Nebraska's leading 4-1. Pretty good so far. Josh Caron just scored another solo home run. Man, that's guy's pretty good.

Nebraska should not take Penn State lightly. They've been having a pretty good Cinderella run this year.

This is the first time since 2009 in The B1G tournament that a team that lost their first game has reached the finals.

Also, if you are interested in this tourny, you have likely heard, that the champ game has been moved up to a 10 AM start instead of 2 PM with the weather threat that is forecast.

Will Bolt excited for opportunity to play for Big Ten championship


No. 2 seed Nebraska is set to battle No. 8 seed Penn State in the 2024 Big Ten Tournament championship on Sunday after defeating No. 3 seed Indiana twice on Saturday in the semifinal round.

Bolt was a second baseman for Nebraska from 1999-2002, has three Big 12 Championships (1999, 2000, 2001) under his belt as a player — not to mention being a part of two of the three Huskers squads to ever make it to the College World Series in 2001 and 2002.

Nebraska moved over to the Big Ten in 2012, however, and has never won a title in its current league. They were runner-ups in 2013, 2014 and 2019, but have not tasted similar success since.
