2006 College Baseball thread
 

The game is tied 3-3 right now, top of the 7th.

I heard Scherzer (sp) won't be pitching at all this series. Anyone know why? Pitt Gorilla?

I haven't heard if he had recovered from shutting his hand in a car door a couple of weeks back.

That is unfortunate.

5-3 Cats bottom of the 9th.

So who won?
BTW # 2 Nebraska starts a 3 game series against Kansas tomorrow with a double header at 1. :thumb:

Noone yet. 2 outs though. 1 out away from a 5-3 K-State victory.

Thanks for the update.

By the way, the K-State women just beat the NU women to advance to the WNIT Final 4. :)

K-State wins 5-3. 16th win in a row.

College baseball....are you guys serious? :spock:

ROFL

I'd assume KU fans would naturally love college baseball. It gives you guys a chance to watch KU play in late March. :)

That score sounds vaguely familiar. :mad:

Damn straight. :thumb:

K-State is for real.






I think. :drool:

BTW Saul Creighton has won 15 in a row. Don't know the outcome of their series opener against Bradley today. Or even if they played yet.

It would be hard to argue against that point. The Shocks went out to California after that loss and pounded CSF I believe.

Long Beach State. Good team.

Doubt it. Lotta snow up there.

Yep and those teams have a little longer season.

Ouch, double whammy for the Shockers tonight as they lose 2-4 to SIU, in Wichita.

Well crap, at least the Grey Goose is good.

Well... Creightons streak is over they lost to Bradley 4-0 today. Don't know if they played in Omaha or at Bradley. And the Shockers lost yesterday as well.
The Big 12 should shake out as league play gets underway. KState has suprised me at how well they've started out.
Missouri has probably underachieved and more than likely overrated as to their ballclub. The were some peoples favorite to win the North.
Nebraska just may have the best pitching in the country this year. They are going to be tough to beat. And the kid Luke Gorsett who we got from some Juco in Kansas is leading the nation in HR's with 9 in 17 games. Gorsett has awesome power.
I'm not really sure who should be the favorite in the Big 12 South. I thought Texas would be but their playing so-so ball and stand at 11-5. They may still get it together. Baylor usually is pretty good and A+M has Nebraska's old pitching coach, Rob Childress, who took their head coaching job this year. But I haven't heard much about them so far.
I still think Nebraska is going to run away with the conference though.
They are just that good. Knock on wood.
:)

Actually I was in Omaha last weekend. Got snowed in Monday and Tuesday and finally got home Wednesday. Most of the snow went around Omaha. I think they only got about 7" total. The middle of the state got hammered which is why they had Interstate 80 closed. But the snow in Omaha never stuck to the streets or sidewalks. I missed all the TRich stuff though.

We'll see. NU visits Manhattan next weekend. I don't think K-State will challenge for the conference, but damn,they are playing well. I just hope for the Big XII tourney this year.

Nebraska up 4-0 against Kansas on a Grand slam by Luke Gorsett. Bottom of the 1st, No outs and now the next guy up just singled. Gorsett has 10 hr's in 18 games. :thumb:

Perhaps this should just be the "2006 College Baseball thread".

Game 2...0-0 going in to the 2nd.

The Huskers take 2 from Kansas today 9-2 and 4-1 to go 17-2 on the season. :)

I doubt the Shockers will be #11 much longer after dropping two in a row to SIU at home.

Our pitching got shelled yesterday. MU won 9-5.

Creighton got back on track yesterday to even the series against Bradley with the rubber being played today at 1.
Creighton was ranked 27th last week but should move up in the poles they sit now at 16-4.

No. 13 Shockers Host No. 10 Arkansas Tonight

The Wichita State baseball team (21-5) will host Arkansas (20-5) in a mid-week contest on Tue., March 28, with first pitch scheduled for 7:06 p.m.

The game will be broadcast live on KNSS 1330 AM with Mike Kennedy and Terry Elliot calling the action.

Tuesday night is Family Night where fans can purchase four tickets, four hot dogs, four drinks and four popcorns for just $32.

Arkansas leads the overall series 28-27, but Wichita State leads the series under head coach Gene Stephenson 18-14. In Wichita, the Shockers lead the overall series 18-6 and 13-4 under Stephenson. The teams have split the last eight meetings overall, while the Shocks have won the last three in Wichita.

They lost in 11 innings.

Wichita State is getting pounded by KU.

Is this the end of the line for WSU baseball?

My Devils are up to tenth in the country after splitting with Oklahoma and sweeping Penn State. I got to see the win against Oklahoma in the St. Pat's green hats and socks.

Probably, they are going to put all of their effort into Basketball now. It is going to be tuff remaining the top Basketball school in Kansas since KState hired Huggins.

Heh.

Which reminds me, when I was watching the local sports in Wichita, they were saying something like that Turgeon is high on Oklahoma's coach search list.

The Huskers got back on track today beating No Colorado 9-1 after losing the final game against Kansas Sunday, a game where they went 1-16 with men in scoring position. They lost 7-6. Yesterday was Freshman day when all the kiddies played and they lost to No Colorado 5-2. I guess today they got back down to business. :)

ROFL Elton John is gay!

I still don't think Creighton has lost a game since they opened with 3 straight loses. I'll check when I get home from school. But they have to be at least 16 or 17-3.

He seems to have dropped off the radar for the ASU search. That's too bad, I really wanted him. Oklahoma is a much more prestigious job, good for him if he can get it.

Things have really changed in Nebraska. Have the fans gotten behind baseball yet? When I used to travel to Nebraska, it was all about Big Red Husker Football.

I'd say so, ever since they moved to Haymarket Park in 2001 they've been drawing good, the place was crazy for the super regionals last year. They've taken over the CWS games that NU has played in the last few years as well.

We still like football too. :)

Nebraska historically has always been a big baseball state. They've always produced Div 1 talent but that talent always left the state when John Saunders was the HC at Nebraska. He alienated the HS and American Legion coaches. That all changed when he was fired and Dave Van Horn took over. Since then the Husker program took off when the instate talent stayed home instead of heading off to Stanford, Arizona St ect. ect. And is continuing with Mike Anderson the current HC. Creighton has always had a good pick of the instate talent as well. For such a small state Nebraska has a unbelievable number of players in MLB HOF. 20 some odd I believe.

I have always wanted to go to the CWS, someday I will. I used to go to the National Baseball Congress games in Wichita. Good times, you can watch baseball around the clock for a couple of weeks.


Which Football team do most of them follow now? :p

I did not know this, thanks alanm.

Creighton has been undefeated for years.

ROFL So have the Shockers.

I just looked at the schedule, big three game series at Rosenblatt this weekend starting tomorrow night. Anybody going?

That's true!! Creighton hasn't lost a football game since WWII :thumb: PBJ

I guess Saul went to the KState BB game tonight. The last I heard Nebraska was losing 7-1 in the 4th. I bet he's having a great time. :)
Huskers are going to drop in the polls after this weekend. Oh well, that's what I love about baseball there's always another game tomorrow. :thumb:

Couldn't make it. The Lady Cats played tonight in the WNIT Championship, so I went there instead with 13,000 other crazed Wildcats. I bet our baseball stadium was mostly Husker fans. Haha. Cats win 11-5. I'll be at the game tomorrow, though.

Huskers win 5-4. Rubber game tomorrow. :)

5th inning, 2 on, 1 out, and our batter hits the ball off his leg. He hobbles around, and the ****ing ump calls the ball FAIR, which leads to a double play. Absolute horseshit. Oh well, we'll get you ****ing corn ****ers tommorow (I hope).

0 for 2! :cuss:

WSU sucks.

I guess we will see how the season ends up. I am looking so forward to April 18.

Me too. KU fell 0-4 to WSU last night. WSU is still struggling at the plate though.

The Huskers sweep Missouri this weekend for their 6th win in a row to take sole possession of 2nd place in the Big 12 behind Texas. Huskers stand 24-5 and 7-2 in Big 12. 1/2 game back from Texas only because Texas has played more games. PBJ :thumb:

Hey Saul, What has happened to Kansas St? I thought they'd at least be able to beat Texas once this weekend. They've pretty much headed south since they got into Big 12 play. Kansas St. I mean. :)

Pretty much. Although we've played 3 of the top 4 teams in the conference thus far. I thought we should have won yesterday, but who the hell knows what the coach was thinking when he pulled Hornbeck.

I think we will have better luck when we face A&M, OSU, KU, etc...

We have a game against Iowa tomorrow then a 3 game set against aTm starting Thursday.

We play your Bluejays tommorow.

Go Jim Morris and the Canes.

It should be a good game. The Blue Jays are sitting at 20-8 and 5-4 in the MVC. The Jays pitching is so-so but they can hit the shit out of the ball.

Cats beat CRETIN 5-4!

The just announced it on the Husker broadcast. BTW the Huskers are up on Iowa 9-2 in the top of the 4th.

Wow, I must of missed a wild game. Earlier when I was home getting ready to head back to school the Huskers were winning 9-2 in the 3rd. Just got home and found out that they won in 13 over Iowa and the score was 16-14. :eek:

Course Tuesday's being kiddie day when all the freshmen play it doesn't really suprise me. The main thing is that they won. :thumb:

Weekend update. Huskers sweep aTm this weekend and win their 10th in a row. They're 28-5 and 10-2 in the Big 12. Big week coming up, Game Tuesday against Creighton and then the big series next weekend in Austin againt Texas.

Shocks may be breaking out of the long scoring slump. They run-ruled the MSU Bears 16-5, to take the first two games of the series.

Guess what? We TIED Texas Tech.

I saw that. I wonder what type of implications that could have down the road come tournament time. The travel cutoff time rule is just stupid. Did they have to be home in time today to hunt Easter eggs? Watching Missouri play Oklahoma at the moment. Missouri is winning 3-2 in the 6th.

Nebraska beats Creighton tonight to extend their win streak to 11 and go to 29-5 on the season. They play Nebraska-Kearney tomorrow and then get ready for the big series this weekend against Texas. :thumb:

Shocks are out of the slump. They run ruled first place Bradley 10-0. They are going to Nebraska and Play the Huska's on Tuesday IIRC.

Shocks win the second game in a wild one, 19-13. They were down 9-2 and came back with 10 in the 6th.

Nebraska beat Texas today. The rubber game is tomorrow. If Nebraska wins the Big 12 is tied.

Shocks sweep Bradley 5-2. A sweep two week ends in a row against the Valley leaders. Next up Nebraska.

Nebraska shuts out Texas today 6-0 to win the series and take sole possession of 1st place in the Big 12. They improved to 32-6. PBJ

Next up the Shocks. Nebraska will probably go with the Freshman scrubs Tuesday. :D

I hope so. One week sig bet?

Wow, Huskers "Piss Pounded" the Shockers, 11-0. Kudos to Nebraska.
Of course, the Shockers did not use one of the regular starters and they are mainly concerned with Valley play. :D

I had to head back to school when it was 5-0 in the 7th. So I missed all the extra scoring. The freshman pitcher for the Huskers had a no-no going into the 7th as well. This winning is all well and good but doesn't mean squat until tourney time and the regionals. That's when you have to win. But it will be nice going in as a high seed.
