I demand a Florida re match with Baird in the line up!!! The Baird haters aren’t saying a whole lot after this match 😂 Caitie Baird's stats line (she served to open the match): .458 (12-1-24); 1 SA (ace), 2 SE (service errors); 5 D (digs); four BA (block assists), 4 TB (total blocks); 15 pts. Pretty good for shaking off rust! Team line: .396 (47-7 -101); 44 A (assists); four SA, 14 SE; 44 D; 26 BA, 11 TB points. They need to clean up the service errors; and yet who would've thought that they'd have five more blocks than UT? Without CB they probably would have had way fewer blocks...her returning presence meant so much!

The defensive intensity today was F'N amazing. Overall just more plugged in.

The defensive intensity today was F'N amazing. Overall just more plugged in. I really agree with this. Baird was great, but frankly Harvey played well against FL. We just seemed pissed off today. We were mad that we let FL do that to us. And we are a great team so we took it out on Texas. Awesome match. Hard to describe just how badly we beat Texas.

I’d love to see the passing stats. My impression was that Stanford started pulling away as CB found her rhythm. Rubin was so impressive; great decisions, punches way above her weight class. She takes so much advantage of the phenomenal tempo Miner can deliver. There were a few early season hiccups but this team overall looked incredibly dialed in today.

I don't have any VM stats atm; I can get some from a source within the SID Tuesday but first touches were a key. Many in the match/UT threads were commenting as to how Stanford dominated that aspect.

The Freshmen (sic) have been great, but now all the veterans are back. It was so great to see Caitie Baird back in full health, and she was sensational. I, too, am one who wants a replay of the Florida match of a few days ago. I hope it will be in the Final Four.

Rubin is playing a year older, better, stronger, faster, smarter, springier, etc. What a baller. Stanford would not be nearly as good as they are without her

Stanford would not be nearly as good as they are without her I was specifically focused on Elia's game throughout the CSU match. She seemed improved... kinda like a mini-KP (though nowhere near 6'6"!). She had that crosscourt kill shot completely dialed in! A baller.

Great win for Stanford! I am glad to see them healthy! Well, it's been quite a start to the season, what with Kipp and Baird both missing time unexpectedly.
