J/k I am the King of typos and not checking auto correct , but had to bust your chops on that one
Brutal conditions today as the Illini lost 4-2. Temp's were in the low 30's with wind chill's in the low 20's. For added fun they played a few innings with snow showers.
So, forgive my ignorance of college baseball, but...
We lost two out of three at #15 Indiana this weekend after winning the Friday game. We still have three games vs. a good Michigan team (in Ann Arbor) this year, but the rest of our schedule isn't very "tough" by national standards. We are currently 25-14 (10-5). Can we make the NCAA Tournament with an at-large bid still??
Illini took two of three from Big Ten leader Michigan in Ann Arbor this weekend (and only lost the third game in extra innings ) ... before the series, one projection I saw had us in the "First Four Out" category. We have a three game home series vs. Nebraska left on the schedule ... probably need to sweep them to feel good.
Glad to see Illini take the series at Michigan.
I checked the standings and was surprised to see Wisconsin doesn't have baseball team.
Isn't that un-American?
According to Wiki, the program was dropped in 1991 because of budget problems.
#ILLINI WIN

I read an interesting stat that was posted on the Indiana baseball twitter feed:
Since 2008, Illinois is second in Big Ten wins behind only Indiana. They are ahead of both Michigan and Nebraska.
I'd say Hartleb has done a great job.
Absolutely. It's such a shame that we ran into defending champ Vanderbilt that year we hosted the regional a few years ago (2015?). It'd be really nice to make the Tournament this year and maybe get the bats hot and make a run!
How does Minnesota do it?:huh:
Our unis are sweet.
Just cut the sleeves off and make those the basketball jerseys.
