At this point, it's beyond ridiculous how the committee keeps matching up Nebraska and Washington. Potentially 6 times in 11 years?
The teams have only played once outside the NCAA tournament.

BYU and Washington have been in the same regional for the past four-straight years... Assuming the Cougars get to the regional semifinals against Nebraska, I like BYU's chances. They demolished the Huskers last year. Assistant coach Whitted (new addition this year) was a coach of the 2006 national championship Nebraska squad. On to the Elite Eight!

Glad I got my tickets back in October. I know Nebraska will travel well! Should be a great weekend! My "sleeper" would be Western Kentucky over BYU. Lots of motivation for the Hilltoppers and Wildcats get back to their ole Kentucky home. BYU is 50-1 at home since Nov. 2011 - one loss in that span in five sets to Washington last year. No upset of BYU in these first two rounds.

This year's Nebraska squad is much better than last year's and BYU no longer has Hamson. Get ready for a reckoning. Revenge will be sweet...and easy.

We'll see about that I just want some high quality volleyball matches in the tournament this year!

If Nebraska wins, it could be three BIG teams in the Final Four (most likely Wisconsin, Minnesota and Nebraska) with USC representing the Pac 12.

Nebraska vs Ohio State in the finals. Washington has to go through Michigan State and Ohio State. Brutal. Are you serious? Washington maybe losses a set at the most against those 2.

I have a feeling your prediction will be incorrect. I'd actually be surprised if Wisconsin doesn't sweep Oregon.

Hey now, I'm not denying BYU plays weaker opponents, for the most part, at home. It's still impressive no matter who you are to have that kind of a home record. Also, BYU has gone 4-1 against ranked opponents over that time span, including sweeping the No. 2 team in the nation in 2013. Oh, and BYU's biggest win at home this year was a sweep of then-No. 24 USD. Oregon State was a Sweet 16 team last year, and that's when BYU inked the deal for them to come play here. How were we supposed to know they were going to bottom out this year? I actually think they were still receiving votes in the poll either the week of or the week before we played them...give some credit where credit is due.

They defeated UCLA at home, and gave the Huskies a scare in Eugene. I admit I am a Pac 12 homer, but I seriously think that the Ducks can defeat the Badgers.

That will be a monumental task...Badgers will be twice as tenacious at the UW Fieldhouse...and very unlikely to overlook the Ducks.
