One
NEBRASKA CORNHUSKERS
After going 4-1 last week, including a 2-1 series with the Texas Longhorns, the Cornhuskers found themselves at the top of the Big 12. Playing two different styles in the Texas series. Usually, the team relies primarily on its offense or primarily on its defense. The Cornhuskers opened with a 14-12 victory and followed it with a 2-0 shutout. They will attempt to continue this streak as they play host to Texas Tech this weekend.
Record 21-4-1

TEXAS A&M AGGIES
After they dropped their series to Oklahoma State last weekend, the Aggies came back this week to go 4-0. The Aggies swept the Kansas Jayhawks this weekend.

MISSOURI TIGERS

TEXAS LONGHORNS
The Longhorns had a long weekend, dropping two games to the Nebraska Cornhuskers and losing ground in the Big 12. The Texas bats were silenced as they got shut out in one game and scored only four and three runs in the others. The Longhorns will need their bats to ignite as they travel to Oklahoma this weekend.
Record 18-8
Five
OKLAHOMA STATE COWBOYS
After starting the season strong, the Cowboys dropped two of three to Kansas State last weekend. The Cowboys got shut out in two of those three games and could not muster any offense.

TEXAS TECH RED RAIDERS
The Red Raider’s bats came alive in the Missouri series. They finally to beat the highly rated Tigers and won the series.

Eight
BAYLOR BEARS
The Baylor Bears salvaged their weekend by winning the third game against the Oklahoma Sooners. The Bears will look to build off the win, as they will take a trip to play TCU in a midweek game today. The Bears pitching has been inconsistent this year. The Jayhawks will test them this weekend.
Record 16-9
Nine
KANSAS STATE WILDCATS
The Wildcats shutout Oklahoma State Sunday and captured the series. The Wildcats went 3-1 last week and are starting to pick up momentum as they try to maneuver amid the tough Big 12. The Wildcats pitching has been sound and will need to remain consistent with Texas A&M coming to town this weekend.
Record 13-12
Ten
