Questions for me, although none of them are burning: 1) How much does Skinner play 6 rotations, understanding that every rotation she plays on the back row means Halter is on the bench. 2) If Skinner does play in the back row, how many times is she set there? I saw one set against Denver. There might have been more, but one is all I can recall. 3) How aggressive is the serving? In particular, SKT and Akana. Eggleston hasn't backed off on her serves that I can tell. SKT started off with an easier serve (to my eye - not trying to be definitive) but in the last couple of matches the serves have more velocity from what I can see. 4) My guess is that Bergmark starts, but that's just a flat out guess. The thing that shocks me is Elliott is simply playing one of them all match long. I figured he'd be a little more liberal in subbing them out for one another. If not within a set, at least between sets. 5) How much do we see Parra, Ewers, and Kahahawai? And in what roles? Having Ewers come in as a serving sub only feels bizarre to me, with SKT remaining in the front row rotation. 6) New drinking game, every time Fleck steals a dig from a teammate. Double shot if it's Halter. 7) Over/under for UT's side out percentage against UH is 75%. Do you have the under or over? 8) I'm interested to see if they move around Molly some. Primarily they don't move her over to right side directly after the serve, but allow her to remain on the pin or in the middle for one rally at least. It's usually late in sets. 9) Do we see the double sub of Ewers and Kahahawai for SKT late in a set? With SKT leading the country in assists per set I rather doubt it. Elliott knows the importance of per set statistics for national and conference recognition. But I like it as a wrinkle outside of that factor.

Houston v Texas drinking game inspired by slxpress
Take a shot if fleck takes a ball from a teammate double if it’s halter
Take a shot if they mention an nba dad
Take a shot if they call halter “the number one prospect out of Indiana”
Take a shot if saige dumps the ball
Take a shot if they mispronounce Logan’s last name
Take a shot if they call Logan the national player of the year on accident
Take a shot of they tell the “madi didnt want to come to texas but was convinced” story
Take a shot if the middles don’t connect on a set
Take a shot for anything resembling “they call her SKT”
Take a shot if they sub mel for madi at a random time for no reason

I think Houston may be more competitive than most think. Playing one of the other Texas schools is always a concern to me. Most typically approach it as their most important match of the year.

I think Houston may be more competitive than most think. We are both invested in this being true. Let it be so.

What is noteworthy about the comments? Someone tagged asjia said please take out the two racist on the team I see "@asjiaoneal please run this racist program and those two racist players out of Austin quick, fast and in a hurry. Racism doesn’t belong in Gregory gym so please let them feel your presence 🤘🏽" I'm not familiar with the background story here. What makes the two players plus the entire program racist? ETA: Ah never mind, I found it. Disturbing, to say the least. www.houstonchronicle.com/news/houston-texas/trending/article/UH-volleyball-players-racist-video-lynch-17035877.php
