So has Kentucky faced a team where every hitter is hitting over .300? I never said Kentucky has and that wasn't the argument I was making...I said I'm glad Kentucky has faced a good blocking team already... GIRL I think the point people are trying to get you to see in simple sentences is that Kentucky has way more to worry about. If Texas has to worry about 2-3 solid hitters things will be over before happy hour at the manhole. |

Loberg: 2.75 k/s hitting .254 as an OH. That is for sure an offensive threat. VDM: numbers aren't great. ok I'll give ya that one. glad Loberg “stuffed” her HP to 254 against MSU and Maryland but hit 0 against Florida and 103 against Texas Are you forgetting that Kentucky has faced the bottom 6 SEC teams each twice this season? They have had their share of "stuffing the HP" |

They have had their share of "stuffing the HP" yea but in the big matches they actually hit well too. Save Stumler in one Florida match but who comes out with a decent HP against the gators anyway? |

So are we forgetting that Kentucky has the most 1st-3rd AA of anyone in this tournament? I think it's more than all the Kentucky starting hitters Texas has to worry about. I feel like Curry and Lilley might also be something to worry about....just maybe... And Kentucky being one of the best passing teams in the country as well. I was just pointing out one thing I was thinking about haha |

No. Kentucky is not getting any respect from Texas fans which is what we are defending and pointing out. |

I think the two best teams made it to the finals. Both teams will have a handful tomorrow no doubt about it. |

If we go position by position here which I know doesn’t always work. S Big Advantage UK OH I’m gonna say wash because of both UK OHs being threats out of the back row and fields isn’t an option there. MB big advantage Texas RS Advantage UK L advantage UK DS I’d say advantage UK but Tharp had a really off night last night so maybe wash. Good analysis. But I wouldn't say the setting advantage is "huge". Lilley is the best setter in college, hands down. But I would put Gabriel up in the top 5. She has come into her own this year and is rock solid all around. Connecting with middles, good location & tempo, puts up very hittable OOS balls, great floor d, spreads the ball around. But at the end of the day, great MBs win chamionships. UT in 4. |

But at the end of the day, great MBs win chamionships. UT in 4. oh. I can’t have a debate with you anymore after you just declaring Gabriel to be a top 5 setter. I have commented on her very good growth as a player and she is a good setter. To call her top 5 is insane and I think reasonable Texas fans will agree. Lilley is a 4 time all American and NPOY. Disrespectful to say that the gap isn’t large. |

Both Butler and O'Neal had more kills in a 3 set match last night than they've had all season. Will be interesting to see if Jhenna tries to stick to that and go to them a lot again. |
