Illinois/Michigan in a doubleheader today.
Illinois wins the first 13-7
Michigan leads the second 7-2 after one. Yeah, first inning.

Gonna keep an eye on this one.

It shouldn’t hurt us too much in the standings because we have a chance to play Michigan and Indiana. We just need to use it as a gut check and move on to the next series. 0-0 at this point in the season. Knock on wood. Haha
