It says Ole Miss Rebels 12-0 under the large UK image, and vice versa. It looks normal on a computer Maybe it's the screen resolution, but, it does look flopped on my computer. On Mobile, they aren't really aligned either way.

On mobile it looks perfect now!
I really like the wildcats but I’m rooting for the upset on this one, sorry! Hoping for a good showing by both teams. Wednesday matches help the week go by a bit faster.

The Cinderella analogy is not a perfect fit here because Cinderella got the respect and attention of the audience at the ball before she had to make a hasty exit. Ole Miss Volleyball is apparently the Rodney Dangerfield of women's volleyball. Sure, their schedule does not exactly feature the who's who of the volleyball world, but they did deal out the lone loss to Western Kentucky, who is currently ranked 21st, despite not having a murderous schedule either. Kentucky is ranked 6th with 3 losses. Their only significant victory is Stanford (sorry Marquette and USC). They flunked their other major tests, yet they maintain a top six status? Polls are nothing but biased beauty pageants. The Blue bloods get the benefit of name recognition that schools like Ole Miss and others don't receive. The good news is that the polls don't determine the seeding and the rankings will become more clear as the season progresses. If the Lady Rebels take down Kentucky and at least one match from Florida, they will finally get at least a portion of the recognition they deserve after winning their first 12 games from both the pollsters and the fans. In this battle of former John Cook protégées, I'm pulling for Kayla and the Lady Rebels to earn their place at the Prince's ball. Oh yeah, and a gentle reminder that last year when Ole Miss was pretty bad, they broke Kentucky's 38 game win streak with a 25-21 victory in Lexington. wtf

Yep. To apply another fairy tale here - the bigger they are, the harder they fall. I think Kentucky is handling the loss of Avery Skinner, but they really miss Madison Lilly. This, plus your other comment, makes me think you haven't watched any UK volleyball this season.

They have to forfeit.

I am very sorry to see the venom of the donaldjamesparker post...it does not belong here! Ignoring that, however, I appreciate his declaration that UK is "blue blood." There is always hope for the seemingly oblivious.

There is always hope for the seemingly oblivious. Venom? What the sam hill are you talking about? I'm actually a Kentucky fan when they aren't playing Nebraska (or maybe Louisville or tonight with Ole Miss when another Husker former assistant is involved. I'm just saying their number 6 ranking is unwarranted at this point. That doesn't bother me as much as Mississippi being totally ignored by most of the pollsters. Hopefully that will change in about two hours. Will the Rebels have to win to get respect or would a five set loss be sufficient? Remains to be seen.
