Nebraska Baseball Opponent Preview: The Yale Bulldogs

Getting to know the Bulldogs, Nebraska’s NCAA Tournament opener

In the Corvallis Regional, Nebraska will have to face off Friday afternoon against the Yale Bulldogs. Yale has never faced Nebraska. The Bulldogs (32-16, 16-4 Ivy) are the Ivy League automatic bid, by virtue of defeating the University of Pennsylvania in the best of three game format.

The Bulldogs have not beaten a top 50 RPI team since they took a doubleheader from Columbia back in 2014. That season the Bulldogs also took a Sunday series finale from Louisiana State. Other than those three top 50 RPI wins, Yale has not beaten a RPI top 50 team since 2011 when they beat Connecticut.

No foolin’, Nebraska Baseball’s first-round foe, No. 3 seed Yale, is 0-11 vs. top-100 RPI teams since April 1, 2014, when it beat Columbia.
