Some discombobulation early for Nebraska. Hunter with a illegal back-row attack, then Kadie and Maloney get tangled up in the back court. 10-5 tOSU TO Nebraska

As I said, Neb exploited a weakness in serve receive that made PSU's offense sputter with poor sets off the net. They also played tenacious floor D which put pressure on PSU to get kills, and PSU seemed to start pressing when the ball did not get to the floor. That is how they won - by pulling PSU's offense down to a level they could compete with. I agree that Kadie played well from the 3rd set on, and the offense got better as the match went on and seemed to open up as a result, with Hall, Fien and Amber chipping in. Foecke still has too many errors for me, but she is a frosh and that should improve. It was never really that smooth though, and never that deceptive. There is a lot of room to improve. I think this should be a good team building win for the huskers though, because it was definitely a team effort. EDIT. Actually, now that I think of it, that last bit is what husker fans should be most happy about. That resilience was not often evident last year. If they can build on that, Neb should have a very good year. So Nebraska is not supposed to serve tough or play great floor defense just so PSU's hitters can tee off for easy kills. If that is the case PSU should do the same. As I understand passing & serving is a big part of the game. In this match Nebraska was better at it than what PSU was. Foecke is just a freshman & she learns every match. If Foecke's 11 errors is too many than what about the 9 that Courtney had with 6 less kills than what Foecke had on 5 fewer attempts? Courtney is a 4 year starter. I don't understand. Of course they are supposed to play good defense. That is my point, it was the defense that won them that match. You seem to find anything that could be taken as a negative comment and fixate on that. I didn't think anyone on PSU side had a good match offensively, but that was down to the problems passing - which was due to Neb serving.
