Nebraska Baseball Shocks #7 Auburn with Nail-Biting 9-8 Extra Innings Victory—What Fueled the Stunning Comeback?
The game carried that unmistakable Friday night energy, a first this season, as each squad threw their ace starters into the fray. Nebraska’s Ty Horn and Auburn’s Virginia Tech transfer Jake Marciano locked horns early—both commanding the mound fiercely, combining for seven strikeouts over the opening two innings. A spectacle, no doubt, that underscored the intensity brewing through what promised to be a compelling series opener.
This wasn’t a matchup we hadever seen before, Auburn vs Nebraska on the diamond. In fact, going to any SEC team for a weekend series isn’t something we see very often at all. But the way the NCAA Tournament Committee has been rewarding teams that have a tough non-conference schedule, it will probably become a more common sight. And with how good of a game we saw tonight, it would be a welcome one.
For the first time this season, the game had a true Friday night feeling as the teams rolled out top flight starters to begin a series. Nebraska with Ty Horn and Auburn with Virginia Tech transfer Jake Marciano, and they were dueling early on. They combined to strike out 7 batters in the first two innings.
