This match will likely determine this year pac 12 POY, May is trying to regain the award while Drews will try to retain it. These two have been trading places at the top spot for kill per game and points per game (conference stats)

I think May is the slight fav at this moment, UCLA is at the top spot at the moment and her hitting percentage is higher but she has better help from her teammates

[JJVb]

Utah looks scary good some matches, and then other matches you wonder if it is even the same team. UCLA rarely has that problem. UCLA will take this match.

[gobruins]

You might want to check UCLA's record. Don't think they are 7-13.

[thelat]

Setter is setting much better actually using all positions. Timeouts are still haphazard

it's just a cut-and-paste from other threads he's done. He'll update everything and remove the "still in progress" at the top, then ask for help with any mistakes or new info.

Utah with the sweep. Sorry UCLA.

[huskyvolley]

I'm gonna be a bitter husky and cheer for Utah

Same. And I grew up in LA

Don't think you have to be a UW fan to be rooting for Utah.

Everyone in the PAC, except for the 27 UCLA VB fans, will be rooting for Utah.

I'd imagine everyone outside the PAC will be as well, because they'd love to see zero PAC teams getting seeded.

Utah has home court advantage, but I don't see a Utah sweep if Makin' Hay May and Super Dooper Luper are playing.

Ugh it’s a shame they don’t have more fans because they’re having an amazing season.

[bigfan]

I love Dani Drews but UCLA now with Luper playing well will win this match.

[coachgabi]

How did UCLA get so high in the rankings? All of a suddenI like and they are 7th.
