| Nebraska Athletics The Huskers beat Indiana again, this time by a convincing 10-4. You could feel the excitement and belief building every day this week as the team marched through the losers bracket one game after another. Not just from the team, who with the resolve of their manager never seemed to falter in their belief, but the fans arrived in more abundance, and with more enthusiasm each game. Now the pressure shifts to the team that is now in the same boat of possibly... |
| Nebraska Athletics Semifinal Saturday had some big time players making big time plays. Semifinal Saturday is upon us! The two lower seeds are more well rounded than the lower seeds that own the 1 game advantage over them. Nebraska has almost every pitcher in its arsenal that was tops in the league ready to go against the potent Indiana lineup. Michigan got a near complete game from Will Rodgers last night, so their bullpen is nearly as rested as the upstart Nittany Lions. We could... |
| I realize a lot of you probably don’t care about this. It’s a lot more fun to discuss your teams, your favorite players, you know, actual sports. But this IS the most fundamental change in collegiate sports since its inception. So if you want to know what’s going on, I did this video about it. **Summary:** The settlement of the House case will mark a significant shift in collegiate sports, ending amateurism. The NCAA and the five autonomy conferences have agreed to settle this antitrust... |
| Nebraska Athletics The Huskers win 4-2 and will take on the Hoosiers again at 5pm. Two Big Ten baseball heavy weights took the field on Semifinal Saturday in Omaha. Indiana sporting their talent filled lineup. A lineup that just lives on extra base hits. They are taking on a Nebraska pitching staff that Ohio State coach Bill Mosiello called “the only team (in the B1G) built to come back (from the loser bracket) and win this, and play a long time in a regional.” Nebraska... |

| Mason McConnaughey was spot on today in win over Ohio State | Nebraska Athletic Department And then there were four Game 9 — Quality Start, Quality Swings #7 Ohio State 5 #2 Nebraska 12 Nostradamus most likely could not predict how things would transpire over the course of a nine-inning baseball game based on how Mason McConnaughey handled the first three Ohio State batters, but a betting man would easily lay down some money that Nebraska would not surrender twelve walks to the Buckeyes like... |
| Nebraska Athletics It’s hard to overshadow a pitcher striking out a career high 11, but Swansen did exactly that. A big day for Nebraska. A win today, and a tournament championship seems a little less daunting. A perfect 70 degree day with a slight breeze welcomed them, as did the biggest crowd of the week for the Big Ten Tournament, including a special friend calling the game that has been missing from all too many games this season as he deals with his health issues.... |
| Look, we get it…we don’t want to relive Nebraska-Colorado 2023 either. But the idea of this series of shows is to review the games with the benefit of being emotionally detached instead of the instant reactions in the moment. This is a clinical approach to the game, breaking down the numbers and missed opportunities. Nebraska did a tremendous job of shooting itself in the foot. The turnovers in that game were indicative of the issues that would plague the Huskers all season long. While it... |
| Nebraska Athletic Department Nebraska always seems to answer when they suffer a setback this season, lets see if they keep that mindset going against the offending team today. #7 Ohio State Buckeyes (29-25) at #2 Nebraska Cornhuskers (35-20) Location: Charles Schwab Field, Omaha, NE Date/Time: Friday, May 24th at 2pm Head Coaches: Bill Mosiello (2nd season, 60-50) & Will Bolt (5th season, 132-95-1) TV/Stream: BTN Radio: Huskers Radio Network, Huskers.com, Huskers App Probable Pitchers: RHP Colin Purcell (3-4, 7.44 ERA) vs RHP Mason McConnaughey (7-3,... |
| Photo by Tim Warner/Getty Images Last weekend I drove down to a town outside of Austin, TX for some training. While I have been on some long road trips, I realized that the longest I have ever driven by myself was probably to Kansas City. I have driven to many other destinations much further away from Nebraska but I was always with family or friends when that happened. I had complete control of my trip down to Texas so I went a little bit out... |
| Penn State Athletics An entertaining, albeit lacking Nebraska, day. Game 6 — Iowa got screwed! #1 Illinois 4 #5 Iowa 2 For the second day in a row, Iowa went to the tenth inning before their fate was sealed. Yesterday against Michigan, they got beat because their pitcher could not throw the ball over the plate. Today, they got beat because two umpires absolutely screwed them over on an interference call that never should have been called, let alone confirmed on review. If Coach Rick... |
| Photo by Keith Gillett/Icon Sportswire via Getty Images This week on the Five Heart Podcast, Greg and his assistants will bury the hatchet of bad Husker football. But before we get there, prepare yourselves for the first Nebraska home game under the Friday Night Lights as it was announced that the Cornhuskers will host Illinois on Friday, September 20. The sellout streak reaches 400 that night if enough parents and grandparents forget their offspring and fill up Memorial Stadium. We feel for you fans who... |
