THE Ohio State goes all the way!
Not entirely unheard of for a 9 seed to win it all (UCLA 2011) ¯¯\_(ツ)_/¯¯

Nebraska over Texas, anyday. Our serve and D will run them off the floor. Texas ALWAYS has passing problems, and this year is no different. IMO the Big 12 is weak and they have no competition that pushes Texas to where they have to be to compete with the BIG.

Thanks so much for doing this.
Super fun.
Midway towards the end of my selections, I had to come to grips with the fact that I'm a Big Ten hack.

IMO the Big 12 is weak and they have no competition that pushes Texas to where they have to be to compete with the BIG. except that time they beat 3 big teams in row to make the national championship game. You know literally last tournament. That’s assuming Nebraska even makes it past UK and the winner of KSU FSU. Ksu damn near took Nebraska to 5 already once this season In lincoln and took a set 25-11

I would love to see NU come to Texas (assuming Texas makes it to the Regional Finals). The NU floor defense is good but the offense is at a disadvantage compared to Ky’s kill ability and efficiency and think it’s unlikely they can outscore Ky even if they make them work harder to score.

The Texas passing has held up against the vaunted NU defense and serving well enough over the last few years. 2021 W 3-1 2016 W 3-0 2015 W 3-2 2015 L 0-3 2014 W 3-2 2013 W 3-2 2013 W 3-0

My point was the last 4 years. If you think Texas has changed and can pass a decent game against Nebraska, well then slap me silly, I'm wrong. 2021 was the 2020 spring game. The general comment of less than stellar Texas passing and stellar NU serving and defense goes beyond the last 4 years. The question for Texas is can they pass decent enough, the question for NU is can you handle the Texas serve and hang with the Texas terminators? Maybe we will find out, both teams have heavy loads to even get there.

Hoping Kentucky upsets Texas again. Picked Wisconsin to win over Purdue in 4.
