Horrible start dooms Cornhusker in 15-4 Loss to Auburn

Story byNico Newhan hits home run at Auburn | Nebraska AthleticsTodd WolvertonSun, March 1, 2026 at 2:27 AM UTC·3 min readThis game wrap-up can be pretty much summed up with a couple of sentences and some imagination. Auburn sent 19 batters to the plate in the first two innings, scored eight runs, with only one hit out of the infield. Nebraska pitching, Carson Jasa and Colin Nowaczyk, issued five walks and hit three batters. They gifted the Tigers a blowout victory faster than some people can eat a cheeseburger.

Key Highlights

  • That ended up being significant as the Cornhusker offense found some life and gave a little hope to fans by putting up two runs in the fourth and another pair in the fifth. Cole Kitchens roped a one-out single in the top of the fourth and scored just a few minutes later when Jett Buck smashed a home run over the leftfield foul pole.
  • After striking out four times last night and dropping down in the lineup, it was good to see Buck put the barrel of the bat on the ball as he has all season until last night.
  • After four innings, it was 8-2 Auburn. Nebraska took another step to get back into the game in the fifth.
  • For the second time in the game, Mac Moyer led off an inning with a single.
  • Up came Nico Newhan, a redshirt sophomore making his second appearance of the season, who got his first hit as a Cornhusker – a two-run homer over the rightfield wall. The Positive Pete’s of the world got even more excited as Big Red batters continued to put the ball in play.
