MINNEAPOLIS, MN -- When the B1G Baseball Tournament takes place Wednesday-Sunday at Target Field, there will be more than usual at stake. The event likely will be poorly attended, and it certainly doesn't help that the host team Gophers were not one of the 8 qualifiers. There will be too many fans disguised as empty seats, with the lone exceptions likely to be 'Husker Nation and (you would think) fans of Illinois, whose sizzling Illini ride a nation-best 26-game winning streak into the tournament. That's too bad if only a few people notice, because it figures to be a whale of a double-elimination tournament.
