“We got punched in the mouth and we let them keep punching us,” Nebraska coach John Cook said. “I’m pretty disappointed in how we responded tonight, but to be honest I saw this. This was all starting Saturday night. We talked about frustration and we didn’t fix it. We had a great practice last night, but we did not compete tonight. It was pretty disappointing.” “They’re going to have to step up,” Cook said. “Part of it is we think we’re Nebraska and we’re going to roll out here and smoke teams. This team (SMU) played very inspired tonight. They played great. They won all the long rallies, let’s put it that way. That’s attitude and effort right there.” Pretty honest take from Cook. Pretty surprising take from Cook. He usually gives opponents no credit. Either he's maturing or this pounding was just too much to ignore.

LOL. This is made up out of whole cloth. He literally said Texas amazing serving was due to the air conditioning. So that means he never compliments opponents? There's plenty to criticize Cook for - and I do - but this isn't it.

This like cements that ACC > Big Ten along with Stanford, Pitt, and Louisville wins (besides the psu match lol ) not to mention Florida state and GT are very good too.

They had a level of serving we haven't seen all year, and it really impacted us and our momentum and our confidence. And then everything just started going their way. And they got all the momentum and we could never get it back. So great job by them. Great job by their players." That's far from no credit given to the opponent.

I wouldn’t say that yet personally, considering there’s still some ACC-B1G matchups to be played. The ACC definitely came out the gates swinging though which is good for the sport.

Jurevicius looked great at the start of this season.. if she was given the chance to start for this Nebraska team. Who knows.
No disrespect to Beason but she hasn’t looked great offensively in every match that I watch including last year’s finals.

Stanford just beat Minny and Wisconsin. Louisville also worked Wisconsin. Pitt throttled Oregon on the road. The team picked 6th in the ACC just wrecked the number 1 big ten team. Big ten fans need to be thanking PSU rn bc if not for them 😭

What an amazing display of volleyball, both teams scrapped for every point and played unbelievable D. Kudos to SMU for their huge win vs Cornhuskers after just landing back in Dallas a day or two earlier from Honolulu.

Hey.....USC, Oregon & Washington didn't drag UCLA along after blowing up the PAC12 just to get over here and see the B1G cream of the crop $#!+ the bed so early. I thought UCLA, USC, Oregon and Washington WERE the B1G cream of the crop?
