Michigan vs. Rutgers time and channel announced
Who: Rutgers vs Michigan
What: SOFTBALL!!!!!
When: 12noon & 2:30pm (approx) EDT TODAY
Where: Big Ten Network
Michigan won 3-0 last night in the series opener.
Rutgers is... not good at softball. At all. Should be a sweep of the 4 game series this weekend.
Michigan wrapped up the B10 title and autobid to the NCAA tourney (no B10 tourney this year).
NCAA field should be announced tomorrow at 9pm on ESPN2. IMO, Ann Arbor has a 60-70% chance of hosting a regional next weekend.
This is the year!!!!!!
Go Blue ?
Hope we get to host?
Well played, Michigan Arrogance.
Pleasant weather to play softball, today. Go Blue!
13-0 and 11-0. Seems convincing
I thought they wrapped up the title last Saturday against Minnesota.
They did......it's in the OP's original comment.
Baseball has a big series this weekend too against Indiana.
I forget who is who on the hockey podcast but the one who posed the question, “Is the B1G champion better than the 8th place SEC team?” in relation to them getting to host or not really made it seem quite ridiculous that they may not. Seems very unlikely there are eight teams in one conference that are better than the best in another.

Finally, some real rivalry news.
hosting is great, but i wouldn’t get hung up on it ... i have a strong feeling they will give michigan the 16 seed just to have a midwest host for travel and they will have earned it in my opinion ... but be careful what you wish for, the annoying part of that is then they will face the #1 seed in super regionals if they advance. traveling to a 13 or 14 seed might not be that bad...
Double header - Rutger + Rutger = Rutgers
Definitely been a fun softball season. Baseball hosting a huge series against Indiana. Could be time to fire Bakich.
Agreed re: Backich. If he can't win at least 6 games against IU today, show him the door.
Perfect game in the "nightcap" for Meghan Beaubien.
PERFECTION. Megan Moses them down.
