Purdue is looking like a borderline seed at this point, so I could seem them pushing Utah out based on H2H. They did beat Baylor too. Not arguing for Utah here just going to sort of say how it looks on paper, they have the H2H advantage with TCU and Baylor. Their worst loss as of now is looking to be BYU, Purdue, or Kansas in terms of RPI. Regardless of knowing the weirdness of TCU situation, they also didn't do anything non-conference. Their best win will be UTEP, which on paper is again Top 50. So it'll be interesting for me to see how the committee handles this. I also don't like that Utah got all of those good wins AT HOME. I feel like for a stretch during Bracketology, non-conference and winning on the road meant more than it does now adays, which makes it hard to predict... |

And Utah's remaining RPI schedule is pretty bad - this may be moot as they couldn't recover to get back into seed range if they drop this. |

Well this loss would take away their clean slate of no losses argument anyways - which I feel like sometimes offsets the questioning of the wins. TCU/Utah might both be playing themselves out - though UCF is embarrassing. I can at least understand K-State. |

It's 6-5 Utah in Set 3 but UCF has fumbled two overpasses and gotten aced 3 times. LMAO.
Edit: Utah crushing in Set 3. Going to turn this off becuase this is bad volleyball and hurts my eyes.

CSU falls apart in the first and is down 0-1 to SJSU.

They have had so many meltdowns like this over the past few years It's hard to tell at a quick glance because so many of their conference road matches are at altitude, but their sea level vs mountain disparity in play is shocking - more so than any of the other elevation teams it feels like. |
