The Ags did not bounce back from their poor performance against the horns like I hoped they would and fell to Nebraska 5-3. They left 13 men on base and were only 2 for 14 with runners in scoring position. The Ags have no lost 5 straight games and can probably kiss away their chances of hosting a regional. Many people are pointing to Stouffer striking out after being up in a count 3-0 and the bases loaded with 2 outs late in the game down one but they shouldn't have ever been in that situation. They squandered opportunities from the beginning and the pitchers didn't help either after giving up a run on two balks. Childress used Ehlert, Uekert, and Starling in the game and in his postgame audio said Rivers would get the start today against Texas. He said that unless there was a late chance for a win don't expect to see Nicholson. So now we'll see if they can snap an 8 game losing streak to the horns when they play today at 4 pm. The horns won yesterday in a slugfest against KSU 19-10 but had to use their top reliever in the win. They'll probably be reluctant to run him out there again so maybe the ags can get into that bullpen.
