Parra with a pretty fearsome back row attack there.

And a liability in serve receiver

Normally, I think she's pretty reliable.  Everyone's ball control has been shit for about 8 points now.  Geezus.

SKT dump ends set 2. 25-18 Texas. Tied at 1

If anyone is tempted to switch to football, don't bother.

As much as I hate the ESPN+ Baylor announcers, not worth it haha

What's football? 

Fucking hell Parra, how are you that late on a free ball? 

13-15. Media TO

I just don’t know what we are doing 

18-21. Timeout Texas. About to be down 2-1

Logan is sucking tonight. 18-23

God we look awful

The bar is high after last night. The difference is we flipped our SA-SE number 

20-25. Down 2-1 

What’s worse than the constant red screen in Ames? No replays when it matters in Waco.  Fuck Big 12 Now

I mean no one has been really great, but she's been really awful for several points.

We can’t even handle free balls tonight   One hit the floor and one was bumped into an overpass kill. Embarrassing 

Watching Parra overpass on serve receive is getting old.  Parra is having a bad night 

16-18. Timeout Texas 

The Longhorns in the crowd are so loud, it’s hard to tell whose point it was sometimes 

23-22 Texas. TO Baylor

The never ending fourth set 

28-27 Texas. TO Baylor and they’re out of subs in this set.  

Tip coverage blows chunks 

30-30. Baylor challenging because they have no timeouts or subs left 

What a stupid fucking loss 

Last night we looked as good as all year.

Tonight as bad.

I mean, there were stretches of some of the worst volleyball I've ever seen us play.  And Baylor was sucking pretty hard too.

Don’t play any back to backs against the same opponent in the tournament. Felt like a loss we needed - better Baylor than OU/KSU/Tech.  Just annoyed because a) it’s Baylor and b) we just fucked up over and over 

Completely self inflicted errors.  We had so many chances to go to a fifth when Baylor had two 5’7 players in the front row.

Yeah, I was somewhat expecting a let down after pretty much locking up the Big 12 and a top 4 seed. Baylor is good enough to beat us too when we play like shit. 

I don't think this loss is all that terrible if we take care of business the rest of the way in the Big 12 against shit teams. It's a wake up call and the pressure of winning it all after an undefeated regular season is even higher. 

I remember Elliott talking about the 2012 season (national title year) and losing the final regular season game to Iowa State. Texas was on a huge winning streak and Elliott pretty much said the team got cocky and the loss was a good thing. Hopefully, this ends in the same result.

We dropped a spot in the RPI to #3 and Baylor is up to #4.  Both teams could be in a position to host depending on what happens to with:

#5 Wisconsin (toughest matches remaining: Purdue, @ Minnesota, Nebraska)
#1 Pitt (toughest matches remaining: @ Georgia Tech, Louisville)
#2 Louisville (toughest matches remaining: Georgia Tech, @ ND, @ Pitt, ND)

I think it's basically any combo of Pitt/Louisville/Texas/Wisconsin/Baylor getting the top 4 seeds

If you're Texas, you need Minnesota and Notre Dame to grab some wins against Wisky and Louisville. 

Texas' remaining schedule: #142 Oklahoma, #38 Kansas State, @ #47 Texas Tech  (average: 75.7)
Baylor's remaining schedule: @ #95 TCU, #45 ISU, #142 Oklahoma (average: 94)

Texas has the better closing schedule and split with Baylor (won 4/7 sets played) and, if we win out, will be the Big 12 champs. 

Edited by Js1

If Texas wins out they're getting a top 4 seed. 

There's no reason we should lose any of these remaining matches especially with 4/6 at home. 

We should win the rest of the matches.  Usually we re-focus after a loss.  

For all the herald that this Baylor senior class has (rightfully) gotten, similar to that Kansas senior class that ran to the Final Four .... Baylor's senior class has 2 wins over Texas in their 4/5 years and that KU senior class had 1 win over Texas in their 4 years.

Just like football, Baylor is taking advantage of a lot of players who came back for the extra year or took advantage of the free COVID transfer - Williams/Skinner/VDM/Sedwick/Anderson/Pressley/Bramschreiber are all gone after this year.   

And just like football, Baylor also took advantage of the portal - Williams (Tennessee), Skinner (Kentucky), Anderson (Cal), Harrison (UNC) are all key contributors.  Which if Baylor wants to be TransferU, so be it.  I'll take Elliot actually recruiting high-level talent onto campus and getting to watch them for 4 years over that.

All 2022 kids signed except McKenna Miller - “signed” some fake papers bc she’s walking on. 

19-15 Texas in the first over OU. Our serving errors keeping OU in it 

Sluggish play in set one for the Horns -- a lot of missed serves

Up  19-16

blOU is bad

22-20 Texas. We look uninterested. Baylor loss hangover?
