Big Ten Baseball: Michigan beats Illinois
Michigan moves on after beating the Illini 6-3. Next they'll play the loser of the Iowa Indiana game. Nice bounce back from yesterday.
Saw the traffic going down there after work. Didn't even know they were playing.
Good performance by the Michigan pitchers today, 12 strikeouts and only 1 walk by Rennard and Denner.
So now a day off and then they just need to win 4 games in 3 days. Go Blue.
Hoping the team can make Omaha "home away from home"...
One game at a time... Go Blue!
Fun game to watch. Clutch pitching at the end after they let the lead start to slip away.
Nothing to lose at this point. Keep it going.
Wtf is an ILLINI
It's plural for Illinus
An ill anus?
No
An Anus is useful.
Short for Illiwhiners?
A band of Native Americans that lived in the area.
Thanks for this. Good for Illinois for keeping their memory alive. From elementary to high school, every school in my Clinton Township area was named after an Indian tribe.
A member of the loose confederation of Algonquin-speaking native Americans who were:
- misnamed by French explorers
-ethnically cleansed by American settlers
-caricatured visually and in minstrelry/ethnic drag by white men on behalf of the University of Illinois and its sports fans* for decades
*hundreds, if not thousands of whom chant for that racist mascot at the halftime of sporting events
Next question?

Fire Bakich
Only Clemson can do that now. #6 ranked Clemson...
I almost forgot. When is the annual Memorial Firing Of Bakich Thread? It has to be a memorial-type thing, of course, since he is no longer at Michigan, but I see no reason to stop the tradition.
