Yea but UW Is 7-8 (2-3). It wasn’t that impressive against a shit team. We should do the same to Bama, honestly. But what they did to PSU, on the road, was impressive as hell
October 11Oct 11 Author Also since you keep mentioning it - TCU did not reach 20 points in any set in our sweep of them (top 10 team) MSST did not each 20 points in any set in our sweep of them on the road (12-1 team)

October 12Oct 12 Author Nebraska and Purdue is the big one today. A decent chance for Nebraska to take an L or at least have to show up and fight

A decent chance for Nebraska to take an L or at least have to show up and fight First set Nebraska only scored on 29% of their serves. The problem for Purdue is they only scored on 25% of their's. 25-23 Nebraska. This goes back to my complaints about over emphasizing service errors. If you don't put enough pressure on the receiving team, it's hard to win matches. And it's hard to put pressure on the receiving team. Harper and Jackson both hit over .700 for the set. But no one else hit over .110 for Nebraska. Wollard trying to make Purdue fans forget about Hudson and Chicoine.

October 12Oct 12 19 minutes ago, Js1 said: This isn’t interesting anymore. Purdue just another tiny speed bump As expected. And Purdue on the road was Nebraska's biggest challenge in the conference with Fuerbringer out for Wisconsin. Maybe they can lose a match. But it will be just as much of a challenge for them to lose a set, much less 3 in one match. And yes, part of it is because Nebraska is loaded for bear this year, but part of it is because the Big 10 has suddenly imploded this season outside of them. It reminds me when Texas played in the Big 12 and sometimes there was a real lack of elite competition. It can make the Elite Eight/Final Four/championship match a bit jarring in terms of the increase in competition. At least Texas has Kentucky and A&M in College Station. And Florida is talented, if discombobulated. Purdue already beat Tennessee relatively easily in a 3-1 win in Nashville, so it's not like they're creampuffs. Already beat SMU, too, in a sweep. But I think they'll be a #9 to #16 host team. Probably #9 to #12 tier. But Nebraska does look good, that's for sure.

October 12Oct 12 Long na,e girl has one job and doesn’t do it well. I rather have someone try to smoke a serve in them hit net on soft, weak serves.
October 12Oct 12 Author That was embarrassing. So many service errors and attack errors. Not even blocks 20-25 0-1 1 minute ago, Cairn Horn88 said: 6 service errors in 1st set….gzzzzz. 13 total errors between attack and serve. And Bama only had 1 block
October 12Oct 12 Either they couldn’t get in rhythm or they were working on some new things. Time to get back to basics and start attacking the middle.

October 12Oct 12 Seriously wondering if their gym has more downdraft from an hvac system or fans than Greg and other gyms, for us to serve into the net so often. But if so, hey adjust.
October 12Oct 12 Author I haven’t really liked that quick set to the OH from the middle. It isn’t fooling anyone anymore
