This could have been what the finals should be. Only time will tell with Neb vs Pitt. But neither team impressed me as much as Wisc and Louisville did through the tournament.

Wisconsin is losing a lot more then Louisville will be losing when this year ends. We will be hearing a lot more about Louisville next year, then we will when it comes to Wisconsin. Too quick on the draw there. Wisconsin will reload for ‘22. |

of course, but it’s a lot easier to get noticed at 6’9. Both teams had fire power and blocking, but IMO Barnes made some amazing digs, passes and covers in the 5th set that gave Wisconsin the tiny edge. Bingo. |

The best team to never win it was TEXAS 2009. I think Hooker was the finals mvp even with her team losing. PSU was just too stacked that year.

20 Kills on .704 that's actually INSANE It is. Her second best offensive match of the season was against Nebraska in Lincoln. Can we get her on national TV all the time? |

It is quite obvious that Louisville deserved their #1 ranking. That is the cleanest team I have seen all year; they have no weaknesses. I honestly thought the Badgers would win in 3 or 4.
Rettke did not play well on the offensive end and Smrek was all-world offensively. With good passing and setting, she could be more lethal than Retkee. Hats off to our outside hitters for staying composed.
ON Wisconsin!

It was a big miss on the counter challenge for the centerline violation IMO. It was in the action of playing the ball and a hitter was coming down from an attack, no? Paul said they were challenging net. IN NCAA you have to have half of your body over the line so Robinson was not over the line according to their rules - which I hate, you go over at all, you get called. Too many injuries not prevented |

Wisconsin is losing a lot more then Louisville will be losing when this year ends. We will be hearing a lot more about Louisville next year, then we will when it comes to Wisconsin. Louisville losing Stevenson and Dilfer (both grads) and Chaussee...leaving DeBeer and who else? Jones and Tillman? hmmm Wisconson losing Rettke (finally), Hilley and Barnes (all grads), maybe Loberg (senior)...but guessing Smrek will be the focus |

Gut wrenching for L'ville - but great job. Kudos, WI. But, I can't believe I might have to root for Nebraska (if they win).

My heart goes out to Louisville because they had an amazing season but it sucks to see them not cap it off with a Championship run.

I hope to see Louisville in the Final Four again soon! Losing too much in Dilfer and Stevenson (and Chaussee) |
