Crazy amount of upsets this week.
Just goes to show that on "any given night" anything can happen.

So new top ten will be something like:
1-Nebraska
2-Minnesota
3-Wisconsin
4-Kansas
5-Texas
6-Florida
7-San Diego
8-Florida State
9-UCLA
10-Washington
Major games left for those teams:
Nebraska- at Minnesota, vs. Penn State, @ Penn State, vs. Michigan
Minnesota-vs. Nebraska, vs. Wisconsin, vs. Michigan, vs Michigan State
Wisconsin- @ Minnesota, vs. Michigan, vs. Michigan State, @ Ohio State
Kansas-no ranked teams
Texas-no ranked teams
Florida-no ranked teams
San Diego-no ranked teams
Florida State-vs. North Carolina
UCLA-@ Stanford, @ Washington, vs. USC, vs. Oregon
Washington-vs. UCLA, at Washington State, vs Oregon
After this week, it appears that Wisconsin, Minnesota, Nebraska and Texas are in the driver's seat for a #1 seed and homecourt advantage. For those teams to make it happen, I think they need to accomplish the following:
Nebraska-they should be pretty safe to lock up a top 4 seed as long as they lose no more than 2 more matches. If they lose 3, they are on the fence.
Minnesota-they will be safe if they only lose to Nebraska or Wisconsin. A loss to both teams, I still think they'll be okay but it'll be close if Florida wins out. 3 losses and they lose a top 4 seed.
Wisconsin-they can lose 1 more game. Any more and it's quite risky.
Texas-if they win out, they'll nab a top 4 seed.

This is brutal. I have no idea how they will account for this week's results. The problem is the lack of teams that can replace the ones that are losing. Even the teams upsetting ranked teams are turning around and losing to unranked teams.

So at this point Florida is the team knocking at the door of a Top 4 seed right? Would that hold true if they don't win out?

Still don't believe the B1G will get three regionals. Whoever ends up third may get shafted even if they are third in AVCA or RPI.

Not sure Kansas will leapfrog Texas with a 3-2 win at home. They shouldn't. But not sure they will either.
San Diego probably falls more than 2 spots. Florida State top 10 is obscene. They have a Pablo ranking below teams not ranked. Was Notre Dame at full strength?
Pac12 should follow their standings: 1) Washington, 2) UCLA, 3) Stanford, 4) Oregon (with 1/2 and 3/4 potentially shuffled due to ties). All the 7-5 teams should be ranked together.

Notre Dame playing without starting setter. |

Did we know that before the deadline for PtW?
And by "we" I mean people who were paying attention, not me.

We'll see. I feel like the only way Wisconsin gets in is if they beat the gophers last match of the season. Then the gophers have to beat Neb. PSU has to play strong, but lose to both Neb and Minn. Maybe in that case it will present enough of a gordian knot that the committee will feel they can't unravel it. I'm not sure local match attendance is that important at the regional level. There are other competing incentives in terms of increasing regional TV exposure and reducing travel expenses for teams, as well as structural issues in the committee makeup that, combined with ambiguity in comparing conferences, make such a sweep feel highly unlikely. |
