I watched that match. It was high level volleyball, except for all the Purdue service errors. Purdue had the better hitting percentage in each of the five sets. How do you outhit a team in all five sets, and lose the match? NINETEEN service errors. With one ace |

Charlie has been...amazing. Still a lot to learn, as expected, but she has carlini and some of the best offensive weapons. AND her dad. She might be one of the best to ever wear a badgers Jersey. Calling it now, we win at least ONE national title with her, if not more. And we FINALLY have a libero who we are building. Well if we assume 4 years of eligibility, then she's really only got one chance in 2027 setting to Madison Quest, at least according to Harper Murray, who believes the Huskers are gonna take the next 3. |

How in the hell could Purdue look so good against RED on the road and then lay an egg @ home? Nebraska fans tend to overhype opponents rather than admit their team played badly. This is silly. Nebraska fans have been plenty critical of the team when they've played below expectation this year and there was plenty said about the Huskers allowing Purdue to get into a rhythm that they had no business being in because of our lackluster serving and undisciplined blocking on the night. |

She should get an NIL deal with Uber. |

They also tend to not give credit to the way the other team played and believe that they are superior despite the outcome. In other words, it was me not you. |

Its not her serve: only rotation with her serving both smrek and SF front row!!! Who ever server is when Smrek and SF FEOMT ROW RULE 1: never miss your serve!!! Ehhh, missed serves on the 12th attempt of the rotation, we can live with that! My point exactly!!! Never means rarely: but point is when 2 of best point scorers in front together: it would be a good idea if being low error a good idea! |

FYI: Because the match was on NBC, I wasn't sure if it would show up in the BTN-Plus 'archive', but it's there this morning. (So now, among other things, we can try to figure out what the heck was happening that led to Booth serving.  ) |

But also the NBC app also allows has the replay. But not for free OTA watchers, need a provider... Youtube TV, Infinity, Spectrum, etc. and to login with credentials. NBC app also has the replay of yesterdays Wisconsin-Penn State football game. |

So I just went through the third set point-by-point, and each rotation and substitution. And I see no reason AT ALL why Wisconsin shouldn't have been able to sub out Booth in favor of Chan or Damrow when Booth was forced to serve (and hit the ace.)
CC started the set as the middle on the floor. There was one sideout and rotation that brought GG on to serve, with opposite Smrek going off the floor. When GG's serve was over, Wisconsin subbed CC out and Devyn in; an 'offense for defense' sub that came at a time when there was no floor rotation for Wisconsin. That is, CC and Devyn were occupying the same MB position. Two sideouts later, Devyn left the floor, Booth came onto the floor, and libero Schumacher went to serve; a completely normal MB-libero-MB rotation/substitution.
Then three rotations later, you can see in the background of the TV picture Schumacher head towards the bench and Devyn come on to the floor. It is now time for the 'serving middle', aka Booth, to serve. But that is exactly when Wisconsin is allowed to make a serving sub for the 'serving middle'. As they did in the first two sets, using Damrow. And Damrow can be seen on the court, holding a ball, I assume back at the service line; Damrow had not been in the set prior to this point, so she'd be eligible to come in at that 'MB' position. We can't see if the mechanics of the sub in front of the ten-foot line are somehow done incorrectly, but players moving 'too quickly' for the scorers and being called back to go more slowly happens all the time; it doesn't preclude or preempt the team's right to make a substitution. And we've all seen a player move to the service line, be given the ball, and then a 'late' serving sub come in for them. And lastly, the refs were nowhere near having whistled the ball 'ready for play'.
So the only thing I can think is that the scorers' table got confused about who was MB1 and MB2 when UW did the CC-Devyn 'offense for defense' substitution early in the set, and that somehow translated to 'no, Booth has to serve'. But that makes no sense, either.
I don't know, I don't understand.

Am I the only one that doesn't want to speculate on future seasons with current players? The NIL is a hot mess.

Maybe someone will ask Sheff about it later this week. |

Being there, it looked like Wisconsin didnt check the serving sub in with the Ref but did it farther down the court toward their bench (definitely behind the ten foot line). I thought Booth would have to come out on the floor and go to the ref at the net then sub out for Damrow. I have seen this so many times. No idea why they made her serve. |
