Actually, they are playing in the conference tournament and beat KU 3-1.
They play Texas A&M on Friday.

No, actually, the winner of the Big 12 earns the automatic bid to the NCAA
tournament, losers 
get to wait on the selection committee.  Do well in the Big 12 tournament
and 
you're likely in, do bad and you might not get in.  That is why I said 
they were playing to get into the NCAA.  But it's nice to see that 
someone kind of knew what was going on.

In reply to the other post, just because I don't post every day doesn't mean
I'm new, (I'm lazy, why write two posts)  I've lurked here for years and
only occassionally post because I'm too da#n far away to have much first
hand (as in none) knowledge of anything going on. So I read and occasionally
learn something.  I've just tired of hitting delete this week with the ad
nausium rehash of two years ago.

This is a husker list, not exclusively a Husker football list.  The
volleyball team hasn't been mentioned since August.  Not recently.  Based on
the comments, I guess if we went back to 95 when the football team was so
good, there would have been no posts because they were beating everyone so
soundly.  Why do I doubt that.  As for the soccer team, - I don't remember
any posts on them this year.  I suspect we'll hear about the men's
basketball team in January when they go into their annual swoon in the Big
12.

Hurry up baseball season, we might have something to talk about.
