HUSKERS vs. Lions for the Baton Rouge Regional Title: What You Need To Know

Andy Ketterson The first thought has to be the Huskers handled this team already. The record says no one blows SLU out and they play ranked teams tough. Ask LSU. We know Southeastern Louisiana well by now. And so does softball fandom nationwide after watching them walk-off LSU last night on ESPN for their second victory over the #10 seed in the last two days. Let’s make this quick and get right into it. For a deeper dive into the Lions or a scouting report,...

Husker Baseball Pours it on a Tarp-less Purdue, 14-2

Nebraska Athletics Lots of games break the Huskers way to move them up the standings on the final day of the regular season. It was clear right from the words “Play ball!” that this would be the Huskers’ day. After a poor start Thursday, and a nightmare finish to the game Friday (after the tarp had been out), Nebraska put together a complete game. Nebraska knew going in that they weren’t going to tax anyone on their pitching staff, so they would potentially need some...

HUSKERS SOFTBALL Regional – It Was a Good Day: NEBRASKA 14 SLU 1

Andy Ketterson And if anyone thinks this kind of performance was expected? Well, it was not. Not by SLU, not Rhonda, not anyone – read on. For many Nebraska Cornhuskers fans, the Southeastern Louisiana matchup was a godsend, a swinging door to the finals on Sunday. And, after the game concluded with a 14-1 thumping on a very warm but breezy Saturday afternoon, that opinion had appeared to turn into a well-supported conclusion. The Huskers unloaded on the Lions with a .444 average on 12-27...

HUSKERS SOFTBALL Regional: A “Quick” SLU Preview After the Lions Flipped the Script

Andy Ketterson And by quick, I mean the Southeastern Louisiana Lions will run – or will they? Are the Southland Conference champs for real? After three innings in the LSU – SLU matchup, the Baton Rouge regional was cruising along according to script. The Nebraska Cornhuskers handled Big East champion Connecticut in run-rule fashion dispatching the Huskies in six innings and relieving Jordy Bahl after three while riding her 2-homer 5-RBI performance to victory. In the second game, LSU was on point with a 3-0...

Purdue Gets the Final Word with 5-4 Ninth Inning Win Over Nebraska

Devin Nunez homers for the first time since March | Nebraska Athletics Defensive miscues cost Cornhuskers in disappointing loss in Indiana In a game that got chippy early on, the Purdue Boilermakers got to puff their chests out after a rain delay as they walked-off Nebraska to split the series. Nebraska has been on the other side of these kind of heroics, but in tonight’s game, four defensive errors had as much to do with the loss as the ninth inning homer. Having clinched a...

HUSKERS SOFTBALL Regional Recap – Takin’ Care of Bidness: NEBRASKA 10 UCONN 2

Andy Ketterson Jordy Bahl served notice in the Huskers opener with 3 strong innings and two long blasts. Sure, this wasn’t LSU, it was Connecticut from the softball afterthought Big East Conference. But nonetheless, Jordy Bahl sent the opening salvos of the NCAA tournament and sending a loud message to all after being nominated for two different organization’s national player of the year awards. In the circle, the Nebraska Cornhuskers pitcher surrendered nothing and struck out 3, before handing things off to Kylee Magee after...

Players and coaches don’t want to leave Nebraska.

Photo by Steven Branscombe/Getty Images College football has never had more coaches and player turnover than it has at this very moment. The expectation to win and win quickly means that coaches are shown the door, with buyouts being the norm. Players are chasing the best deal possible with little to no regulation on the transfer portal. Players and coaches can expect to move on before a contract or degree is concluded. Nebraska is bucking that trend; players and coaches with opportunities and reason to...

Friday Flakes: No, We Will Not Mention Scott Frost Today

Photo by Steven Branscombe/Getty Images Scott Frost. Oops. Anyways, if you have been scouring the Husker hot takes this week then you likely stumbled upon many mentions of Scott Frost. In particularly, was Josh Peterson of 1620 the Zone who thinks that Frost should testify in front of a jury of his peers and take responsibility for the travesty that was the Frost tenure. Only then will Josh be satisfied and then we as a fan base will be given permission to move on. Unfortunately...
