Remember the saying, "Consistency is the hobgoblin of little minds." I share your bewilderment and pain. Idaho? Idunno "A _foolish_ consistency is the hobgoblin of little minds" is the actual passage. You're talking about IB, right? ;D By definition, speculating on winners of VB matches is foolish. And I was quoting CJ Oliver Wendell Holmes, not RW Emerson. And if you want to rag on IB, mind you not that it is not undeserved, then go to the off-campus or whatever it is called thread.

Rich Kern still shows LMU as the winner over Saint Marys by 3-2, but now that LMU has posted that Saint Marys won by that score, the contest administrator agrees with the above poster.

I picked SJS over some team last week. Thought it was a lock. They lost. Nevada's been playing well. I don't get this one. Jessie Shull earned her 2000th career dig tonight in the SJSU-Nevada match.... pretty impressive number.

Okay, (R)uffda out with it: why were you so confident Illinois would beat Ohio State? Not only were you correct, but the Illini swept them.
On the other hand, why were you so off on the Purdue v. Wisconsin, which Wisconsin just won in a sweep?
Or is it simply when picking the Big 11, go with the home team unless it is Iowa or Indiana, except always pick Penn State?

I'm guessing the latter, publius.

The Big 10 and the Big 12 are both the Big 11 for Volleyball.

The Big 10 and the Big 12 are both the Big 11 for Volleyball. They beauty is that the suggestion publius left works for both conferences.

Other than Indiana, Iowa, and Penn State aren't in "the other Big 11" conference.
