mmm ok lol they look good but I would say that all of four of the teams from first serve looked better wut??? Did you see Wisconsin play?? I can say MAYBE nebraska and Louisville looked better, but neither of those teams lit it up. IMO penn state was WAY better than wisconsin, better than Kentucky and even if not better than the other 2. Yeah, I agree. Of course, it's hard to know how good Tennessee is (i.e. how impressive it was to beat this opponent on the road for Penn State) until we see them play some more. But that's true of pretty much everyone. Penn State looked really good, which makes me happy. They're my second team. |

I thought you had a thing against the volleyball dynasties (Stanford, Nebraska, Texas etc.) lol is Penn State the exception there? Haha |

I also have no issue with UConn men's basketball winning as many titles as they can. I've been rooting for Penn State to beat Texas, Nebraska and Stanford since I started watching college volleyball in the mid-2000s. That was a great era for me. I don't think I ever said I had a problem with volleyball dynasties per se. I mean, obviously I don't, since I supported the biggest volleyball dynasty ever, lol. |

It is what it is. Texas has to be more grateful for the transfer portal and NIL than any other school. They'd still be on one title in like 35 years. |

Wow wow wow! Jess and Cam were great today, quite the dynamic duo. I’m glad everyone is finally starting to get on board with dimes Grimes! She is playing like one of the top liberos in the country!
Very impressive first match!

Might win another one this year, too. It’s not like I’ve ever been a fan of NIL. I’ve been yelling at kids to get off my lawn regarding college athletics for decades, even while knowing it would benefit UT. And it has. |

Very impressive first match! I’m just iffy about Tennessee. It is an impressive result, though. A very impressive debut for Starck. |

So interesting bc I think both teams are pretty equal... but it's obvious that Kerr is just outplaying Izzy You were saying? |

Thank God I was wrong (not an unusual occurrence). Keep up the negativity, the reverse jinx is working, also, don't post during the match; seems like that is the recipe for success. |

Penn State looked solid. Not exactly sure what happened to UT after the first set, but they could do some damage this year. Think they have the pieces in place. Really like their setter.
PSU is still very left side dependent and they both had exceptional hitting % tonight. Sets behind the setter need improvement, or maybe the connection in general but sets looked a little low. They appear to have no true M1. Mendelson is in that spot but is not exactly light on her feet, looks lethargic moving around. Not what you want from a slide hitter. Maybe they need to adopt the men’s offense and just keep the middles both in front and have a quicker right side back row attack in the opp spot. It’s a shame as the slide is the most effective attack in women’s volleyball and they appear to have no one who can do it.
Watch out for Tennessee. I think they will be very good.
