Fighting Erstads Huskers vs tOSU Buckeyes

Rhetorical alert ---> Here's something worth pondering? Does any Husker baseball team from 2009-2011 come back and win the series against Illinois & Ohio State after losing as big as they did in those 1st games this year?

This has been one of the positives that should be applauded about this 1st season under Erstad. It's that mental toughness that's been lacking the last few years. Hopefully they continue to build on this trait and find a steady Friday ace to rely on in the future.

Agree. Great to win a conference road series against a team that's right with us in the standings. Need to have a good clean series against Purdue now. I agree we don't have a Friday/Saturday starter. We have a whole slew of Sunday starters....

 
We're 3 games back from first place if Purdue wins this second game against Illinois. They're up 5-3 in the 8th.

I think we've sort of found a Saturday starter. I don't think we've found the right guy for Friday yet. I think Pierce actually does pretty well, for the most part, and will probably compete pretty well against most teams' Saturday starters. That Friday spot has just been tough. And sadly, on most weekends, that has put us in an 0-1 game hole to start the series. Hopefully, they'll find somebody that will stick on Fridays.

 
Great ending to the series. Snapped OSU's 7 game win streak and snapped our own 15 conference series losing streak on the road. Our biggest conference series of the year next weekend. Hopefully someone can step up on the mound next Friday. We need to punch Purdue in the mouth early to get some momentum going.

 
exactly Nexus, we need to punch em in the mouth, then maybe a kidney shot. THEN GO FOR THE JUGGLER AND RIP THERE HEARTS OUT AND SACRIFICE IT TO THE GODS!
