We finally get to welcome you to the friendly confines of Huff Hall for the first time since '92. Your fans did build up a LOT of good will for their support at the FF last year and since John & Kevin are buds I expect at least a semi friendly welcome. Not to say that will last after the match starts but it should be back after it's over. Should be fun.

No K-State on the schedule?...bummer Maybe a first round post-season rematch in Lincoln? I'd love to see that one. I'm sure it would have a different ending.  |

Hummmm, We open conference play AT PSU We'll find out a LOT about both teams right from the get go. Huskers face 11 NCAA volleyball qualifiers in 2012 huskerextra.com/sports/huskers/volleyball/article_76c09aee-c579-505b-aff7-85947ae54535.html"The Huskers will open the 2012 season with two matches in Lincoln — against Saint Louis on Aug. 24 and UCLA on Aug. 25 — before traveling to Omaha for a showdown with Notre Dame at CenturyLink Center Omaha on Aug. 26. After a pair of matches on Sept. 1 in Irvine, Calif. — against Colgate and UC Irvine — the Huskers return to the NU Coliseum for the Ameritas Players Challenge, which features matches against Oklahoma, Duquesne and Kentucky. NU will close the nonconference season at Iowa State on Sept 15." I'm guessing the home match against defending national champion UCLA will get moved over to the Devaney Center and will draw 10,000+ |

When does the new building open? Be interesting to see who gets booked for that match. Texas?

Coach Cook will want that match in their own snakes pit, Devaney Center is NOT a HCA for the Huskers. |

The match where more fans will be able to attend if they want to will be at the Century Link in Omaha instead of the Devaney.

There is a difference in terms of HCA advantage but there is also a difference of about 70k. |
