why did sc end up with so few total matches on the year? i know one tournament got canceled because of the hurricanes, but when was the last time a team ended the season having played only 24 matches (18 of which i assume were in conference...)?

that just means there were a lot of people that ranked hawaii #3 or lower and those that had hawaii at #1 had nebraska at #2...not that surprising considering the 5 game "win" at utah state...  |

Looks to me that the voters are trying to stay closer to what the seeding looks like. Albeit, Minnesota is one point above Washington, but the top 4 seeds are the top 4 teams in the AVCA poll.

If that tournament knocked out three matches, then they would have scheduled 27. Sounds about right to me. |

Let's also not forget Nebraska's domination of Texas and Texas A & M(first Big 12 team to win at College Station) last week. |

Yeah, I still can't picture Utah State taking two games off the number 1 (or 2?) team in the nation... I actually felt sorry for Utah State when we played them at the Thunderdome they were so overmatched. I guess Hawaii was overlooking Utah State for Utah? |

Let's also not forget Nebraska's domination of Texas and Texas A & M(first Big 12 team to win at College Station) last week. While I would, and in fact did, predict Nebraska to win the match regardless, TAMU still had a realistic chance to complete their at-home season undefeated with all their players on the court. Unfortunately for them, their #1 AA middle twisted her ankle just two weeks ago and was unable to play (and is questionable for the tournament). Big12 co-Defensive POY Melissa Munsch is far and away the Aggie leader in blocks/game, aces/game, and digs/game. You simply cannot beat the steadily improving Nebraska without solid defense no matter how strong your home court advantage may be. There are plenty of teams out there that have a realistic shot at beating Nebraska. And they'd better hurry up and do it this year because it looks pretty ugly for the next three. |

#1 or #2- it's all moot now. Of course it's moot now that Hawaii is #2 with Nebraska finishing out the regular season as #1 ;D |
