I really love showing games on ESPNU/ESPN as it helps with visibility and brings the sport to audiences that might not otherwise tune in.
That being said, is this really the kind of match to attract casual viewers to the sport? Like... of all the possible B1G match-ups happening, this bloodbath??

They must have believed the Aird hype. |

The energy here ain't it.
Indiana isn't going to be challenging any top tier opponents this season, that's a given. Last week they took the second set off Penn State after they lost the first 24-26. Yeah, they didn't win, but it wasn't a "bloodbath."
They are 2-4 in conference after sweeping MSU and beating Rutgers 3-1. So, maybe the thread "Does IU bring down the Big10?" be directed at some other teams, too.
Clearly, no one likes Aird. It doesn't seem like his Russ Rose impersonation is effecting any real change in Bloomington, which is a tough task for anyone anyway.

That doesn’t mean Indiana is good. This match shouldn’t even be competitive. Do you think Will Lexi Sun play? At this point, a restraining order would be appropriate. Eventually trolling crosses the line to stalking and I think that line's been crossed. |

I think lots of people like Aird, but to this point he’s been a far better sales person than a delivery man. |

The Hoosiers really, really need to serve tough to make Nebraska beat them from the pins with Stivrins back.

NE really showed their potential vs Creighton and Penn State. Then in games after Creighton not so much. Same with Rutgers after Penn State IMO. NE will get there, but too early to take any game lightly with this young team IMO. GBR! I totally agree. Loved how well they played against Penn State. Against Rutgers, IMO they were more ragged. The big challenge I think is polishing their game to play better and better no matter how the opponent plays. |

Is the poll really necessary?  Would've been amusing to just list one option, that one being the obvious result. |

why will/should Sun be playing? The expectation for this match should be that we empty the bench. A that something Nebraska has ever done In league play? I really don’t expect to see that happen outside of maybe Sun,Callie. |
