Did some searching,  thought the event may have been free - wrong !    Scotty Mcreery concert after.    Regardless, great even for WVB.  Good article below.

 

Tickets to the outdoor match will not be part of the Nebraska volleyball season-ticket package and must be purchased separately. Tickets will go on sale to the general public on Wednesday, April 26. A ticket will gain entrance to both volleyball matches and the concert. Tickets will be $25 for adults and $5 for high school age and under

not sure if the real truth has come out yet.  no way they got 92k there selling tickets.  still, a great night for volleyball and womens sports.  i predict we have a game in dkr within the next three years.

The media did a good job burying the lede with the concert. Not sure if 90K fans would have shown up without the concert following the match. I bet we could break 100K attendance for a womens soccer match if we played it in DKR and it was followed by a Taylor Swift concert.

They sold 82K tickets before they had an artist for the concert.

Volleyball in Nebraska is not the same as at Texas. We’d be better off doing a big match in Moody, because we wouldn’t sell out half of DKR. And for a non-conference, the weather fucking blows in August/September.

Nebraska has a diehard fanbase that sucks at every sport except volleyball. It's their only outlet for success. 

Basically. You might get 50k to fill out Hawaii’s football stadium but the state of Nebraska and volleyball is just different.

Probably not. I know Elliot was trying to get one at AAC the night before TX/OU

That would be cool

Not a lot of luck going our way early in the year. 

She’s dressed and warming up. Maybe a bad rumor bc she apparently missed a lot of the national championship celebration yesterday. 

she’s starting. Phew

You can see our communication issues without Logan or Zoe. Constantly have 2 players going for the same ball and fucking everything up 

Someone needs to take control

Ella needs to call some people off these balls. The communication errors are so amateur

We are going to have to have a lot of patience with this team. The setting and the communication is not up to Texas excellence

I think Emma and Ella will get better and more assertive as the season goes on. We have too many front row players trying to pass the ball that should be left to back row.

Their service errors are the only thimg keeping this respectable.  And some of that comes along with tough aggressive serving but still....

We are going to get swept. Just not there today. This is UGLY.

Stanford is tall and damn good. Experienced team like we were last year, but man we look lost at times

Skinner has been off all season and hit .083 today. Without her getting back to her old form this teams ceiling is pretty low.

She started slow last year as I recall too. But it’s definitely the setting. Swindle will grow and get better, but it’s going to be a “get hot by the end of the year” type thing

I think that's been Skinner her entire career. Even at Kentucky. 

She struggles in non-conference play, gets better in conference play, and then is really good come tournament time. Kind of weird. I wonder what the cause is as there definitely seems to be a pattern.

Many many matches left to be played but at the beginning of this school year, if you would've told me that this team would not only lose these games but lose them looking like absolute dogshit, I would've said you are smoking crack. And yet, here we are. 

We need to get our shit together.

Swept FGCU. -19, -18 and -13

Rice on Monday 

  • Author
#194

Including yesterday, Monday is the second in our five game homestand before we go to OU to start Big 12 play. 

FGCU - swept 3-0

Rice - 3-3 with a win over #22 USC, but also lost to ULL (0-3), Baylor (1-3) and Stanford (0-3)

Ohio State - 3-3 and on a 3-game losing streak to ranked teams (1-3 and 1-3 to Georgia Tech and 0-3 to Stanford).  They also play Oregon prior to us, so they could come in 3-4.

Washington State - 8-1, with a 3-1 win over #8 BYU, but also lost 1-3 to #4 Louisville.  Play Baylor before us

 

Would be really nice to go 4-1 over the homestand and start Big 12 play 6-2.  Washington State will be a big test.

Texas moves up a spot to #6 ahead of Rice match tonight at 6pm.  I believe we are the only D-1 team in action today.

1 Wisconsin
2 Louisville
3 Florida
4 Nebraska
5 Stanford
6 Texas

9 Minnesota

11 Washington State

12 BYU

18 Baylor

19 Ohio State

20 Kansas

22 Houston

23 Iowa State

 

Schedule looks a little more stout and the Big 12 a little tougher - 6 teams ranked. 2 of our next 3 matches are against top 20 opponents.

Weird sweep. -16, -21, -15

Skinner went off - hopefully gets her on track 

Ohio State/WSU back to back nights will feel like the tournament. Will be fun
