I just Googled the divisions... East Divisions: Indiana, Maryland, Michigan, Michigan State, Ohio State, Penn State and Rutgers. West Division: Illinois, Iowa, Minnesota, Nebraska, Northwestern, Purdue and Wisconsin. Nebraska would have to play Rutgers, Maryland, and Indiana only once, which is better for their RPI than playing them twice. It's lame, however, to not have Nebraska and PSU playing each other twice in the conference each year. Under these divisions, PSU and UW would have played the one game playoff and I think we can safely say PSU would have won the Big. The West division is way tougher by the way. I can guarantee you the B1G will never have a 1 game playoff. They may have a 1 MATCH (best of 5 set) playoff but a single game playoff ain't happening.

Could do it like pro football, making the following year's conference matchups based on final standings of the previous year (or 2-3 years avg). Top 4 teams always play each other twice. Last 4 teams always play each other twice. Middle 6 teams have a variety.
1: 2,2,3,3,4,4,5,5,6,6,7,7 - 8,9,10,11,12,13,14 2: 1,1,3,3,4,4,5,5,6,6,8,8 - 7,9,10,11,12,13,14 3: 1,1,2,2,4,4,5,5,7,7,9,9 - 6,8,10,11,12,13,14 4: 1,1,2,2,3,3,6,6,8,8,10,10 - 5,7,9,11,12,13,14 5: 1,1,2,2,3,3,7,7,9,9,11,11 - 4,6,8,10,12,13,14 6: 1,1,2,2,4,4,8,8,10,10,12,12 - 3,5,7,9,11,13,14 7: 1,1,3,3,5,5,9,9,11,11,13,13 - 2,4,6,8,10,12,14 8: 2,2,4,4,6,6,10,10,12,12,14,14 - 1,3,5,7,9,11,13 9: 3,3,5,5,7,7,11,11,13,13,14,14 - 1,2,4,6,8,10,12 10: 4,4,6,6,8,8,12,12,13,13,14,14 - 1,2,3,5,7,9,11 11: 5,5,7,7,9,9,12,12,13,13,14,14 - 1,2,3,4,6,8,10 12: 6,6,8,8,10,10,11,11,13,13,14,14 - 1,2,3,4,5,7,9 13: 7,7,9,9,10,10,11,11,12,12,14,14 - 1,2,3,4,5,6,8 14: 8,8,9,9,10,10,11,11,12,12,13,13 - 1,2,3,4,5,6,7
If you sum up the total of your opponents previous standing (lowest sum meaning toughest schedule) then the values are even for the first 4 and last four but vary for middle six. Adding in your own teams rank*2 gives a nice spread. Sum Sum+2*TmRank 1 131 133 2 130 134 3 130 136 4 131 139 5 133 143 6 136 148 7 140 154 8 145 161 9 149 167 10 152 172 11 154 176 12 155 179 13 155 181 14 154 182

Just watching Holman play as a freshman and my lord. I thought STANFORD was middle reliant, almost every set went to holman, even on not so great passes. Nebraska may very well win the national championship with the twins, foecke, holman, hunter and justine. Maybe haggerty can squeeze into there. Thats a SCARY lineup.
Question to everyone who's watch ALL the haggertys, In your opinion, which haggerty seems to be the "best" coming out of high school

Best all-around skill set and best work ethic in the weight room.

Best all-around skill set and best work ethic in the weight room. IMO by a large margin. Watched her match in the State Finals as a freshmen and it was pretty clear even then she was the best of the trio. On a side note; Went to the Presidents' Day Tournament in Omaha today. Wanted to see Fitzmorris and Foecke play in person. Both outstanding, but if it were an either/or scenario, I would pick Foecke in a heartbeat. Toward that end, while there are some on here who have claimed Fitzmorris to be 100% decided on Stanford, that is simply not the case at this point.

I don't have ANY insider knowledge, but for a top recruit to wait this long, she's most likely waiting on admissions. But my god, if she chose nebraska, that team would be SCARY come 2016

Maddie was fantastic as a sophomore and junior in high school but really took a few steps back her senior year. Is her shoulder finally okay? Molly has been one of the best players in her class for years, but some of her peers are catching up to her. I think she'll do well at Nebraska if she stays healthy.
