I don't know much about Illinois, but I thought Nebraska's block was pretty impressive in that match.  Even if they weren't blocking to the floor they were consistently sending the ball back to the Illini side or getting hands on their attack.  Seems like there was one rally when the Nebraska block sent the ball back 3 time in a row against the Illini's left pin.

I thought Corn looked pretty solid. Their defense is salty and we better slow down their middles. Block needs to show up.  I think it's going to be dogfight. Hope I'm wrong.

Illinois isn't very good and they were without their best offensive player in Cooney. 

That was going to be an ass kicking the moment it was announced Cooney didn't travel to Austin. Illinois was totally screwed in this match because they had to move their best middle to OH with Cooney out. 

I do agree Nebraska is salty defensively but there wasn't anything to take away from the Illinois match with Cooney not playing.

Even with Cooney, Illinois was known as an error prone team. They bottled those up for the Kentucky match and they came back 

Yup, upsets happen. Nobody would take Illinois to beat Kentucky again. 

There's a reason Illinois lost 12 matches this year. 

Very stoked for tonight's match, in the Caribbean on a cruise ship with the booze package.  Will be watching on my IPad in the cigar bar.

Counting on y’all. I’ll be checking on my phone while out and about

NICE...  Sounds like Alex Loeb doing the play-by-play for Pitt vs Purdue match

I kinda like Pitts 5-2 - they have one setter that plays all the way around (setting in the back and hitting in the front), and the other setter only sets in the back. Interesting option since they always have 3 hitters, but the front row setter can step in to set. IIRC, Penn State had a pretty successful system like this somewhat recently.

Their offense is so fast and so good

#3 Pitt in rhythm... Wins 1st Set over #6 Purdue

25-20

I’m really surprised how often Purdue is getting beat on block after playing in the Big-10. But I can still see them pulling off an upset if they have any gas left after their last two 5 set wins. 

Nice 2nd set match...   24-24  timeout Purdue

#3 Purdue wins  30-28   Match tied 1-1

"Boilers" on the Purdue jerseys is kind of weird, and vaguely obscene.

Set 3 goes to #3 Pitt  25-20

Pitt lead 2-1

The way the Pitt offense is dismantling an elite Purdue defense makes me less nervous for Nebraska 

Pitt is through, which means 2 ACCs are in the semi finals. If we advance, it’ll be offense versus offense in our semifinal

Louisville wins the first set over GT.  Hello, Katie George.

Louisville was rolling in this match but GT caught some momentum in the 2nd set and won like 11 of the last 12 points to tie up the match 1 set a piece 

GT takes set 2.

Louisville has no answer for the back row attack from Brambilla.  Take note, Jerritt.

I can't remember the last time GT dug one of L'ville's pin attacks.

Apparently this Bergmann is supposed to be a GT stud.  She's had a horrible game.

Brambilla is beasting though.

I'm gettin a mite nervous.  Mmmm. Hmmm.

Probably more about Pitt, Louisville and Wisconsin.

Fuck corn.

Holy shit. Kick save by Minny was awesome, but Wisconsin won the point and the first set. Need to find video. Phenomenal rally.

Are you serious?  We are hoping to get to the FINAL FOUR and you are out gallivanting around,  when you are ALWAYS here to keep us informed?  Oh my. 

And the curtsied bleachers are full tonight.  Great to see but not sure why Thursday's seating thing didn't carry over to tonight

Really struggling to get kills. 7-6 Nebraska. 

13-9, timeout.  Not getting any pressure with our serve

It seems like if the ball stays at the net, we're not very good with it.

Serving way too conservative right now. Have to put some pressure on them. 

This is how we lost the Kentucky match last year. 

Our middles and front row are out of sync. Communication is horrible and has already led to 3 balls fall that shouldn't have

Jesus, 14-9 now. 3 blocks for Nebraska. We have to be hitting sub 200. 

Guess we liked playing poorly in the 1st set last time

Team needs to wake up or this is going to be done quick.
