Stanford Set One Unforced errors vs Nebraska:
1. At 4-2 Oglivie serves wide left from the very left side of the back end line. 2. At 6-3 Kipp serves a lollipop to Rodriguez 3. At 6-4 Elia Rubin makes a one pass and then swings wildly attempting to hit high hands but misses badly 4. At 6-5 Sami Francis attempts to hit line and gets blocked by Krause, however there was a gap in the block crosscourt 5. At 7-7 Sami Francis nets on a ball that was dug and nicely controlled by Kami Miner 6. At 9-8 Pringle serves the same area as her previous serve but Rodriguez adjusts and handles it easily (instead of Beason who passed the ball on the previous serve) 7. At 9-11 Miner sets a pipe to Rubin, but the set is about a foot behind the 3-meter line, and Rubin swings hard anyway and gets blocked 8. At 11-13 Oglivie overpasses a serve which is crushed by a Nebraska MB Allick 9. At 14-15 Miner gets a 3-pass and sets Rubin instead of Kipp. Rubin attempts to go cross court and is walled by the Nebraska block. 10. At 21-20 Oglivie makes a great dig off a Murray bomb, but Rubin misses high hands badly on a cross court attack 11. At 21-21 Miner sets Vicini on a 3-pass, but Vicini hits it into the Nebraska block and Miner nets 12. At 22-21 Baird overpasses and Allick blocks the ball down to the floor for a Nebraska point 13. At 23-22 Rubin swings on two taking a set away from Miner and is blocked by a Nebraska wall

I just watched the passing touches on the Volleymetrics film. Stanford could not afford to take Rubin out. She passed extremely well. Oglivie did not. She could have been taken out of the front row. No question her passing & defense are great, but the hitting was atrocious.

Stanford vs Louisville.
IMHO, this is Stanford’s last chance if they want to host a regional in December.
I think Stanford should compete - saw the match between Kentucky and Louisville. Louisville is very good, don’t get me wrong, but not as athletic as Nebraska. Glock (Louisville) will be crucial.
Go Card! So excited!

And with everything that’s been said about the loss to Nebraska - I realised Stanford needed the recruits that they have in order to compete with the top teams for many years to come.
We did really well recruiting Blyashov, Harvey, Kurt for 2023 and Andrew, Yu for 2024. But 2025 will be very crucial and I really hope we will do well with 2025.

No question her passing & defense are great, but the hitting was atrocious. So then who is going to pass when Rubin is out? She is still counted on to pass when she is in the front row.

She is still counted on to pass when she is in the front row. I didn't watch the Florida match, but from my understanding, Harvey came in for Blyashov and played OH, right? If so, then maybe it could've worked similarly against Nebraska? But tbh it probably wouldn't have changed the outcome. Nebraska was just better, especially with how Murray, Krause, and Beason passed when we were able to get serves on them. And Jackson reminds me of Harmotto in ways that I don't like. Anyway, this Stanford team is giving me vibes of the 2013 team, if anyone remembers that. Had all the pieces after returning most (all?) of it's starters from the previous year, but took too many losses during the season to be a top seed. Still ended up giving Penn State the best match anyone did during the tournament, losing in 5 in the Regional Final after being up ... 9-6?... in the 5th.

If you brought in Blyashov or Harvey to replace her, then perhaps Oglivie could squeeze towards the sideline and take more of the court, but then Baird would have to cover additional area. Baird is sufficient covering a third of the back court IMO, but having her cover additional space, well, I'm skeptical she would do a good job. Rubin had a bad match and while she's been playing better this year, she's still only a sophomore. She probably came in a little overconfident from the Minnesota match due to their shorter and less talented middle blockers. So it's a learning opportunity for the next match against Louisville, who have two tall MBs and an OPP who is a very good blocker.

Baird is ok covering a third of the back court IMO, but having her cover additional space, I'm skeptical she would do a good job. Exactly. If you take Rubin out, you have one suspect passer (Baird), one unknown passer (Blyashov or Harvey) and your back-row anchor. Oligive can’t pass the back row herself!

Just a frustrating match vs Louisville right now.
Kipp is having a bad match, tip, centreline violation.
Can’t defend the middle.
Oh it is going to be a very long season.

Baird just totally lost this second set for Stanford.
Hit wide Tip (and every spectator in the arena knew she was gonna do it) And again Tip on an open net
And it just feels like this team doesn’t have any fire and just slower to react to everything.
Just frustrating
