I wonder how many Husker fans will be in line for general admission before gates open given their later game. I hope not too many Probably wishful thinking, but what is it, 6-7 hour drive for them so maybe some will drive Friday to get there in time for their game and not the first one ?

I expect it will be interesting to see how many Husker fans arrive early to cheer for TAMU and how many Badger fans stay late to cheer for Hawaii.

Almost all Husker fans going will have procured their ticket prior to arriving. Other teams' fans won't have to battle them for GAs at the booth.

I’m definitely staying for Hawaii-Nebraska. That's a real volleyball fan. Why would someone miss that match if they're already there? I guess if Wisconsin is somehow upset by A&M, then heading to the bar to drown in cocktails would make sense.

I'm leaving Thursday morning 😉

Wisc fans going to make payday with selling their single match tickets to Huskers...bet stubhub has them listed soon. A Wisc fan could buy next year's season tickets w/the money made from this regional I am sure. I am 100% sure you are correct. Because that's what they do. I, on the other hand, have one available ticket on Friday and I will not sell it. Not only that, I would give it away to a Badger fan. Hey - I am a lifelong Badger fan. Cheese in my blood. Named every one of my kids Bucky. Can I have your ticket? Driving all the way from Lincoln Fitchburg for the match....

I know some season ticket holders in our regular section who requested reserved seats and were just informed that would only get general admission due to new donors who wanted to go. This just p*sses me off. I tell you, if any of these big donors sell their tix on stub hub they should be banned from further volleyball ticket purchases, full stop. Those folks were probably sitting in section Q.

However, there is work to do prior to thinking about that. The Bows will be ready. Theyll give Nebraska their best shot. Most teams do.

You do not have to travel thousands of miles across four time zones. Again, as is always the case, when Nebraska plays in the Midwest you'll have plenty of fan support. Your team is used to the weather while Hawaii players don't even own jackets. You know the venue and our familiar with the Madison area. A much fairer venue would have been (say) San Diego, CA.

NE was far from in form against Missouri. Y'all should know by now who the pretty girl is at this dance..

Top 4 seeds: 1. Baylor - green, Pantone 3435 2. Texas - Burnt Orange, Pantone 159 3. Stanford - Red, cardinal version, Pantone 201 4. Wisconsin - Red, cardinal version also, Pantone 200
also, Nebraska Red is Pantone 186, which has more yellow in it in comparision to Cardinal.
So technically, though both reds are called "cardinal", they are different formulations... pantone 201 and pantone 200.
Historical anecdote: Stanford's red was modelled after Cornell red, as at the time many of Cornell's faculty were raided to pupulate the Stanford faculty. About twenty five years earlier, UC Berkeley (just UC at the time) was founded, and adopted "Yale Blue", Pantone 289. UCB changed that to the almost identical Pantone 282 in 2007.
