[Husker] OT: A&M this weekend

[Skylar Dodds]

To further Jon's point:

1) If we sweep, we're in control of our own destiny.  We sweep Missouri, we
win the Big XII and probably a National Seed.
2) If we win 2, we'd need to sweep Mizzouri and have Texas beat aTm twice to
win the Big XII.  Host Regional, maybe still National Seed with a good
showing in the Big XII tourney
3) If we win 1, we cannot win the Big XII and outside of sweepting MIzzou
and winning the Big XII tourney, we'd probably host a regional, but no
National Seed AND with OSU playing so well, they may catch us.  They're only
1.5 behind us.
4) If we get swept, we'd still probably host a regional, but have no shot at
a national seed.  The only way we're not going to host a regional is pretty
much losing out.  

@Mizzou at the end of the year was looking very tough at the beginning of
the year, but they've been playing really bad as of late.  It's really a
three team race in the Big XII.  A&M is a legitimate National Seed in my
mind right now and it will be a tall order to sweep (even take 2 of 3) even
though it's at home.  Should be a great series though, the biggest concern
for me is keeping their bats cool.  As I posted earlier this week, they lead
just about every offensive category imaginable.

Hope that helps!

Top four look like this:
Texas A&M
18-3-0
Nebraska
15-5-1
Oklahoma State
14-7-0
Missouri
11-10-0

If we get swept, it's more of a matter of looking bad than anything -  
as we're getting closer to the postseason play. Both A&M and Oklahoma  
State are playing pretty good baseball, and our last series of the  
season's at Missouri, so now is not the time to fall down.

Right now, we're projected for a regional - it'd be good to maintain  
at least the #2 spot to make sure we get one.
