The Huskers, who are 7-2 against ranked teams this season, have won 14 of their last 15 games and return home with a 32-6 mark, the best Division I record in the country. Nebraska won 2-of-3 against fifth-ranked Texas, overcoming a four-run deficit on Saturday before Johnny Dorn, Erik Bird and Zach Herr combined on a five-hit shutout on Sunday, the first time Texas had been shutout at home since the 2004 campaign. The Huskers’ 32-6 mark is the program’s best 38-game start since 1983, and a game ahead of last year’s school-record 57 win pace.

The only other conference that can boast that in the Baseball America poll is the ACC trio of North Carolina, Clemson and Georgia Tech. The Huskers run into another team hitting its stride, as Wichita State comes to Lincoln with a 31- 14 record and has won seven of its last eight games. The Shockers, who had lost 2-of-3 in each of their first three MVC series, have now swept Missouri State and Bradley to move into a tie for first place in the MVC.
