December 20, 20241 yr Louisville up 9-3. If they hold on and close this out, the final on Saturday could be ugly without DeBeer.
December 20, 20241 yr 17-9, Pitt is in trouble. Coach Kornacki going to choke away the semifinal again, even with DeBeer out?
December 20, 20241 yr Author Cool, congrats to Nebraska or Pedo on their title. And You know it’ll be Nebraska 🙄
December 20, 20241 yr Guess I gotta stop believing in Pitt. They can't find a way to get over this final 4 hump. As well as they've played this year, this is kind of a choke job considering the Debeer injury.
December 20, 20241 yr I'm hopeful Debeer can get treatment and play in the final. She was back on the bench and looked like she might go in. I thought this match was over for Louisville without her
December 20, 20241 yr Pitt fans must feel like Texas fans did for a while. Elite 8, final 4, final 4, final 4, final 4 in the last 5 years. Getting that close every year is brutal.

I thought this match was over for Louisville without her Yeah, Louisville won't be an easy out if Debeer is healthy. There is going to be some major juice in Louisville's favor in that final playing at home.

December 20, 20241 yr Just now, Js1 said: Yep. Huge choke when you have Fairbanks, Clicka, Babcock, Stafford For sure but I feel for Pitt fans too. Having to beat a 1 seed in their home environment is brutal. Texas fans have been there before with Nebraska. I guess there's no way to prevent it but it's brutal having to play a final 4/national championship match at a disadvantage simply due to who gets to randomly host it.

Problem solved.

December 20, 20241 yr Off topic, I bought 3 tickets for both the Semis and Finals mths ago for $256 total. Sold the Semis tickets for $110/ea ticket and sold the Finals tickets for $225/ticket! I'm happy!
December 20, 20241 yr I just hope Swindle does whatever is necessary in the off-season to improve her setting. Really miss seeing Ella’s presence at the net and just shows that you need a setter that can block the further you go in the tournament. And 3 elite littles in the backrow… Edited December 20, 20241 yr by TexasDPT

December 20, 20241 yr Let’s go PSU for the first female coach to win a championship. Also, at least the Starcks’ mom is Texas MB great Errica Hibben Edited December 20, 20241 yr by texfan11
December 20, 20241 yr Did I smile as that ball landed out of bounds causing Corn tears? Yes, yes I did.
December 20, 20241 yr "I guarantee that we'll win the next 2 national championships back to back" -Harper Murray postgame, probably
December 20, 20241 yr Really impressed with PSU's Jess Mzurik's overall play. And Harper really cursed her team saying they were gonna win the next 3...
December 20, 20241 yr Rumor on VT is that Nebraska's volleyball NIL collective landed Eva Hudson from Purdue...gonna be interesting to see the fall out that occurs with his Cook's current roster and incoming recruits

So much for Cook's comments about the portal after Texas won the national title. Nebraska volleyball and their fans are up there in aggy-level annoyance.
December 20, 20241 yr Author Wow! Get fucked, Neb I can live with Penn St-Louisville final. Schumacher-Cawley has a good story. Edited December 20, 20241 yr by Js1

LOL and then he immediately went and got Landfair and Blackwell (who he kept on the bench so other programs couldn't have her), while also playing Merritt Beason, who he got from Florida
December 20, 20241 yr Author The volleyball world was on pace for and already ready for Pitt-Nebraska. Louisville and PSU had other ideas. But if anyone should be salty, it's Pitt - they're 3-1 against the final 2 teams. I turned off the second semifinal when it was 22-16 Nebraska in the fourth. Nebraska blew 2 match points and PSU went on a 12-4 run to win set 4, 28-26, to keep their hopes alive. And I did not expect Louisville to go HAM when DeBeer went out.
