If my math is correct.......

- Nebraska can clinch the Big Ten championship tomorrow with a win over Ohio State -AND- with a Michigan loss to Maryland

- If Nebraska wins vs. Ohio State on Sunday and Michigan beats Maryland, the Huskers win the Big Ten with one win over Michigan in their three-game series next weekend

- If Nebraska loses to Ohio State -AND- Michigan loses to Maryland, Huskers need one win over Michigan

- If Nebraska loses to Ohio State -AND- Michigan beats Maryland, Nebraska would have a 1.5 game lead with 3 games to go and would have to win just one against the Wolverines
 
Kind of incredibly, the coaches were pretty damn close... They just didn't count on Will Bolt:

Basically they got the 6 teams right with just one obvious omission :)

I’ll definitely be pulling for Maryland today. Let’s wrap it up sooner rather than later.

Part of me, though, hopes Michigan wins. Husker Nation desperately needs a feel-good moment. When was the last time a men’s team clinched anything of substance in front of a home crowd? Beating Kansas State in 2009 to win the Big 12 North?

A Michigan win means a Friday game vs. the Wolverines with Cade Povich on the mound and perhaps 8,000+ looking on with no scoreboard-watching necessary. Just win and go nuts.
