November 24, 20196 yr 25-18, set, match. .274 hitting, considerably below average. Micaya player of game, but Logan was better.
November 24, 20196 yr Time to focus on Iowa State. They haven't lost at home since October 12th. Gotta overcome Hilton magic

I was there and went down to court level to watch Claire serve. It's hard to tell sometimes on tv, but it is filthy. That first set was a bit of a hangover. Kansas scored 4 or 5 points in that set hitting over Jhenna's block. That's something we need to figure out how to defend better.

Yeah it is hard to see, but the receiver often takes it in the chest or way low.
November 25, 20196 yr Author Thanks to Rice losing again, Texas is now #4 in RPI futures. #4 in AVCA #3 in current RPI In 2017, we finished #4 in the RPI but got a #6 seed. We ended up matched with #3 Tree. We really need to be kept away from Tree. Ideally, #4 seed allows us to host 4 games and then we match up with #1 Baylor in Pittsburgh (if they make it). If they go full RPI right now, it would be: Baylor/Tree Wisky/Texas If they go RPI futures, it would be: Baylor/Texas Wisky/Pitt I still don't think Pitt gets a top 4 seed (probably #5). Which means 3/4 comes down to Texas and Tree. H2H would knock them up to #3 and us to #4 - which I am okay with. Wisky is kinda hot right now and I think a third Baylor matchup goes our way.
November 25, 20196 yr BTW, did anyone else notice the, um, unique way the Kansas Libero finished a play? My wife called it the "slow grind" and wondered if Nelson knows what it looks like she's doing. The TV cameras may not have picked it up much, but she did it every time a ball hit in front of her. I found a shot of her doing it in a previous match.

November 26, 20196 yr Author We got unfairly punished. Baylor dropped from 1 to 3 after getting swept by us on the road. We dropped 1 to 4 after losing at Baylor in 5
November 27, 20196 yr Oof fuck. That's some bullshit right there. Number 3 in RPI makes it more palatable.
November 27, 20196 yr I could be wrong, but this seems like the first week in a while that we're higher in the RPI than the coaches poll. FWIW, Karch predicted last night we would wind up the 3-seed and Baylor the 1-seed, putting us on opposite sides of the bracket.

If it’s Tree, god I hope not. Elliot said in Point Texas that the goal is to avoid Tree until the FF Bc they keep fucking up our postseason
November 27, 20196 yr Now that Plummer is healthy, I would have them as the tournament favorite regardless of seeding. Yeah we should hope to be on opposite halves of the bracket from them.

November 30, 20196 yr ISU takes set 1, 25-23 #4 Texas will piss away their hosting hopes if they lose to Iowa State.
November 30, 20196 yr Texas ran off 12 straight points in the 2nd set. Looking good for us to even up the match

November 30, 20196 yr Texas takes set 3: 25-19 Texas leads in sets 2-1 I don't want this to go to a coinflip 5th. Let's get set 4, ladies!
December 1, 20196 yr Texas wins! 25-22 in the 4th set. As long as the committee doesn't fuck us, our resume should give us a top 4 seed. Way to handle your business, ladies!
December 1, 20196 yr Author Especially with Wisky losing to PSU last night. Though now feels like it’ll be something like Baylor-Tree-Texas-Wisky. Really hope that’s not the case.
December 1, 20196 yr Author Co-Big 12 champs technically but we get the AQ by virtues of 5 sets won versus Baylor and they only won 3.
December 1, 20196 yr Molly Phillips with the straight zeros in the stat sheet despite playing four sets. Is that accurate. Also, \m/ on the Big XII title. Our banners don’t need a gap.

December 1, 20196 yr Author Considering our only loss since Rice was to #3 Baylor in Waco in 5, we are healthy and on a roll and only need 4 in a row at one of the best places to play.
December 1, 20196 yr I would give us a greater than 50% chance of making the final 4. Then once we get to the final 4 each game could go either way. We have a good shot this year
December 2, 20196 yr Author 1 Baylor 2 Texas 3 Tree 4 Wisky road to the championship goes through Tree in the F4
December 2, 20196 yr 1. Baylor 2. Texas 3. Stanford 4. Wisky Gonna be a tough semi final against Tree. Gotta stop Plummer
