There are so many great matches being televised this weekend (I am admittedly slightly less excited about the Texas matches)…should be a good opportunity to see how the early season Longhorns measure up to the rest of ranked teams.

I think it's too early to know what we have in Arizona as an opponent. The Pac 12 is a good conference, so we'll know plenty about them at the end of the year. If they surprise everyone and end up upsetting some teams, they could be a nice win by the end of it all.
I have no hope for Notre Dame. Arizona should not lose to the Fighting Irish. That squad is a hot mess right now.
Baylor/Florida is the big one in conference. That would be a great win for the Bears if they can manage to pull it off. Not expecting it based on what I've seen so far. They have a lot of pieces but I don't feel like they're playing all that well.
Kentucky/Wisconsin is the big match. I want to watch that for sure.
Minnesota plays Stanford. That should be interesting as two teams we've already faced play one another.
Iowa State has two early games back to back, but neither of them will be televised. I believe both Ball State and Syracuse are undefeated.
Another one I'd like to catch in some format is BYU/Pittsburgh. Pitt is getting early recognition as a top 5 team. I'd like to see how they look. BYU is generally a solid program.
Other than that, Washington and Pepperdine looks interesting, but I don't know if I have access to the WCC Network, whatever that is, or not.
For us, there's all kinds of interesting possibilities. I can't wait to see how the match with Arizona plays out. The Texas State roster tinkering was fun. I feel like Elliot is in Mad Scientist mode right now.

Both of them are tons of fun. Post your comments afterwards. If you haven't had any spoilers, the Texas State match has some surprises for you.

But, not allowed to be listed on the official roster all this time. Strange red tape. I think the reason we weren’t seeing her on the sidelines was bc that would have been in an official capacity. But assuming that paperwork was the only thing that was a problem, she should have been able to practice, just not officially be apart of the team It's quite possible that whatever status kept her from being in the team area during games and placed on the roster, could easily prevent her from practicing with the team.

That’s the gist I’m getting so I’m glad i at least got one response from someone that felt honest. Idk how i feel personally about living in a state where just the one city is “worth” living in but like everyone is pointing out, im ignorant to the overall identity of the state. It’s just funny because the same people swear they have coastal states all figured out but when met with even the tiniest bit of questioning, its all foaming at the mouth and gnashing of teeth lol i didnt even think my post was a prickly as i can usually be. I'll make one challenge to you. If you know someone from Texas that is a conservative, ask them their opinion of Austin politically. Until then, STFU because you have your head about two feet up your ass. Politics and bullying. Take a break!

Saige is officially on the roster y’all, so everyone can stop asking 😜 Not sure if it’s already been discussed, but it looks like Saige is using her covid year as she’s listed as a junior on the roster.

Until then, STFU because you have your head about two feet up your ass. Lol how about you shut your bandwagon ass up and mind your business? The “argument” was over but you just had to add your own stupid words into it. I get it, Austin is apparently “liberal”(whatever tf that means) enough that it makes up for the stereotypes about Texas overall. If that’s good enough for Parra, a foreign player still improving her English, to feel comfortable being there, awesome, good for her, that’s it. I already warned you about these types of comments and you hijacked a thread to talk about demographics instead of volleyball. Isn't this a volleyball forum and a volleyball thread? I'm giving you a vacation.
