Nebraska did a good job working through Wiese last night. The Michigan closer entered the game with a 6-3 lead in the bottom of the fifth and Nebraska took the lead right back. Will be interesting to see how much of him Nebraska sees throughout the weekend. Michigan also scored eight of their nine runs with two outs including all of their home runs. The Wolverines hit 12-21 (.571) with two outs compared to the Huskers 2-11 (.182) in the same category. Those are trends to watch (and Nebraska's bullpen) throughout the day today.
