Mediocre offense vs mediocre defense. Incredible offense vs incredible defense. I feel like this could have a lot of great rallies in it.

I got to witness that resiliency firsthand, when the Gophers had Texas down 23-17 in set 1. The Longhorns just seemed to find an extra gear and gritted out that win. Gabriel led the charge in that one, and Phillips was the silent assassin too. Not to mention Parra's serving. That match confirmed Texas' #1 ranking at the time, as they looked like a team on a mission. If Texas remains calm and keeps their offense firing, despite Nebraska's defensive efforts, they should pull this one out 3-1. Its the Honey Badger effect. Her attitude, energy, demeanor and focus never changes whether Texas is up 7 or down 7. She is flat out relentless. nellynel, I will buy you drinks forever if you tap Paul Sunderland on the shoulder and tell him about Honey Badger. I want this to go national!!!!

I truly do not expect to win this game. So that’s kind of nice going into it. All I want is a hard fought game. Good setting, smart and powerful hitting and solid defense. We do that and I will be happy with whatever outcome (I’m repeating that to myself all day).

I love Jhenna’s feistiness and pettiness but Logan is the Honey Badger that doesn’t care. The team follows her lead, when in hole she’s the rock they cling to mentally to dig out.

This game makes me nervous. We should beat Nebraska, but you just never know.
