As long as we hit the ball everything will be fine. Nebraska doesn’t have anymore great pitching and I believe we will wake up today


No doubt.

Slavens, Franklin, Smith, Battles, Opitz are all without a hit in 2 games vs. Nebraska. Welch has just 1 hit

Exactly. Our bats all went silent at the same time. That time just happened to be Regionals

Time to revert to the mean today

So end was just pressing yesterday with it being his first day back I think. Idk what franklins deal is we need him to lock in. Opitz job is to be a rock behind the plate and gun down anyone foolish enough to run on him his bat is just extra if he gets going. And just because battles got hot last week doesn’t mean we should expect that type of performance from him at the plate all the time I mean there’s a reason he’s been in the 8-9 hole all year.

Nebraska didn't have great pitching yesterday. They had two good upper 80s / low 90s guys with a great scouting report.

Multiple guys are swinging through piped pitches trying to uppercut everything out of the park.
Franklin is the most obvious example but most of them are just as guilty of it... there is no way Franklin is going to get to a ball in the upper 3rd of the zone with his current current motion. When he had two clear whiffs on down the pipe 4-seamers you could see the mental decision made by Nebraska... throw another one.

Oh and who thinks Welch will see a fastball at all tonight?

Our hitters have to make adjustments.
