Maryland takes the final 2 of the series using a big 6th inning today to erase a 1 run Gopher lead. Gophers will enter the final weekend with a shot at the 8 seed but I believe need to sweep Rutgers while having Nebraska sweep Purdue and Indiana sweep Michigan State. Man that loss to Illinois...

That is a heck of a win. Maryland's park inflates the numbers offensively some but that is a old lineup that can absolutely mash and Wietgrefe absolutley diced them up. This group has consistently improved throughout the year and a large majority of the guys getting the ABs and innings will be...

Feels good to be on the other side of a late inning comeback! Always a risk to have those position player closers and that was huge for this. I'm not a fan of Swenson playing at all but gotta give him credit as well as Jurgella for sparking the comeback with the 1 out singles. Counsell comes...

Threw a pitch grabbed his arm after but it was more toward his bicep, tried to throw another to see if he could continue but it was same issue.

Really solid Friday night win. Tucker Novotny and Noah Rooney were excellent on the mound but I fear we may have lost Rooney for the rest of the year. Offensively took advantage of one of the better pitchers in the conference struggling with command in the 1st and put up the crooked number...

Gophers had multiple chances to take control of this game early and didn't, they gave the Huskers the chance in the 4th with the multiple walks and hit batters and they took advantage delivering the big blow with the 3 run homerun. Good to see Senior Kyle Bork performing well and looking like he...

Gophers certainly missed some chances they really need to score on but they showed that they just continue to battle. Bateman and Merila had a heck of a night. Big time by Hokenson to come through left on left after a horrendous at bat from Swenson, I really really hope we see very little of him...

Not getting that 3rd run from Perry in the 1st and then Counsell's first pitch double play with bases loaded will be the difference in this one.

What a punch in the nuts that was! Gophers just couldn't ever get that shutdown inning when they scored. Gophers score 2, Illinois answers with 1, Gophers get 1 Illini get solo homer, Gophers score 2 in the 9th and Illinois gets 3. Thought Brett Bateman had ended that with a great catch. Moreman...

His coach at Montana State is now the coach at Utah State

Gophers/Illinois now on BTN as the softball game is done

Was worried that bust of a 2nd inning would come back and haunt and it did. Have to put up a crooked number in that situation. Man was the homeplate ump horrendous today. That go ahead homerun for Illinois was one of the weakest I can recall, talk about wind aided.

Looking ahead 7 more conference wins would probably get you into the conference tournament based on history. Can we get there with @ Illinois, @ Nebraska, Michigan, @ Maryland, and Rutgers left?

Extremely ugly game today. Two things that have been pretty reliable this year Holetz and the defense were not at all. Holetz constantly seemed to be in bad counts and the defense had like 6 errors. Bullpen came in and didn't fare any better. Sitting at 4-5 after 3 B1G series isn't too bad...

Too many free passes from Klassen and missed opportunities situationally for the offense. Really needed to come through with at least a run in that 2nd inning.

Really nice job by the offense really making things tough and adjusting about halfway through the game against a really good Iowa staff. Novotny and Wietgrefe combine for a nice job on the mound as well. Gophers win game 1 12-3

Back and forth game tonight. Defense was not sharp at all but the offense with 4 homeruns comes through in the 12-9 win.

Nice to see the offense jump on a starter early. Had to have the win and got it 9-3. Holetz was a little shaky at times with command but made the pitches he needed to and gave a solid 6+. Wietgrefe was really good out of the bullpen. Hopefully build on that performance facing a NDSU team Tuesday...

Ugly one today, defense failed Shepard starting in place of Klassen who had been away from team due to a death in the family. Bullpen management was weird going to DeLuga first. Offense has been atrocious in conference play.

Hated the bunt call in that situation and then you add on especially against a reliever right away. The no replay and no pitch clock is embarrasing. I thought Counsell got enough of it off the bat even though it was a moonshot but just missed. Swenson has shown me nothing to stay in the lineup...
