I don’t think Ryan field had stadium lights either. Surely the new stadium will

And have a 5 week season?

Nope. Push everything back so it goes into the last part of July or the first part of August.

Purely for selfish reasons of course. If baseball started now and ended when I proposed it to it would fill up the reason of the dead time between basketball and football season.

 

[Mr.Bojangles]

If we made it to a super I would chalk that up as a big fuck you to The Simulation.

We'll just play Texas gay&M again so it will give us the middle finger right back.

More than likely.

I've been curious about this listening in here and there. Do they ever just decide to do something like a double header today when they know there's a chance of games being cancelled over the weekend? I'm sure there's a reason, but it doesn't make sense to me if you can insure you get the games in.

Both sides have to agree to it. Bolt is pretty well known for wanting to play, regardless. He's good with 2 games during the week, but more bullish during the week to play 3 if we already have a different weekday game scheduled. I'm not sure any coaches are for 3 weekday games to be honest with you.

Yeah, I get that it would be nice from a fan perspective but college students need a summer.

These kids take a week and then go play summer ball after they’re done with their season though. I know that’s a bit less structured, but it’s still not really a summer in the traditional sense.

Believe me, I know. I've done it lol. Summer ball is far less structured and also gives you the chance to get off campus and separate from school for a bit.

Summer ball exists primarily for the extra reps, so if you shift the college season into summer then kids lose a month of reps at least.

well shit

Announcers:

"my did he get a hold of this one"

"we'll watch this OPPO BOMB here"



That ball cleared the fence by one foot in the RF corner.

 

[HCFord1]

Walsh! Good grief he's murdering the ball lately.

 

[Goskers07]

Yeah I'd be ok if he quit pitching and focused on his hitting. He's been on a roll.

 

[SOHusker11]

Willy again.

This announcer has done literally no research on Nebraska's season so far. Just said the reason Sears is getting hit well today is because we haven't faced tough competition in the non conference season.

Yup it’s like they didn’t look up our SOS or RPI……. And he overvalued the BIG baseball quality by essentially saying it was so much better than the “mid majors” we played so far this season.

 

[Kaladin]

Sears having a rough day so far

 

[Kaladin]

2-2, going to the bottom of the 4th

He’s gonna run up a 4.5m gambling tab and blame it on his best friend?
