The B1G Baseball Recap:  Day 5 – An Extra Game and Two Surprising Semifinalists

Big Ten Tournament — Day 4 Nebraska ends up winning twice and will face off against UCLA in the finals on Sunday Walking out of Charles Schwab Field last night, Oregon coach Mike Wasikowski had a look of frustration on his face, as did a fairly large contingent of Nebraska fans, who had waited out a three-and-a-half-hour rain delay only to be denied the opportunity to watch a baseball game. The Ducks had been hanging out at the stadium for at least five hours and...

Nebraska Beats Penn State 6-3, Headed to B1G Championship Game

HUSKERS Super Regional Recap: NEBRASKA 5 Tennessee 2 (More to Come)

Andy Ketterson Tennessee miscues once again cost Tennessee in a Game 1 Super Regional loss in Knoxville As I brought up in an article just before game-time, in the Nebraska Cornhuskers previous meeting with Tennessee, the Vols’ defensive goofs in the top of the 5th blew the game open for Nebraska 5-1 on their way to 7-1 victory. Tonight in Knoxville, it was the top of the 4th which became deja vu all over again. Hannah Camenzind had begun the inning with a high solo...

Nebraska is quietly heating up on the recruiting trail.

Photo by Steven Branscombe/Getty Images Nebraska may not be landing an extensive array of players in the 2026 class, but they are certainly making some waves with top recruits. The class sits at four commits, but I expect that number to jump significantly going into the busy June and July recruiting visit season. The new calendar means players are signing earlier, which means the coaches need to analyze film nonstop. Final schools. The Huskers are among the final four schools for Kelvin Obot, a top-ten...
