Well, we don't like your gym either, Madi. By the way, you're named after the best city in the country, the best college town in the country and our gym is a national landmark.

Really this match, as all matches, starts strongly with first touches. Most everything rolls off serve and pass. But in tight, tight matches on paper these first touches become acute. If one team has a distinct advantage in serve and pass, I favor the home team. The last meeting was defensive on both sides with the Wisconsin block the difference-maker. I see Nebraska in four or five based on common opponent comparison and a gut feeling. Losing Rettke, your setter Hille and libero Barnes were big losses since all three were All-Americans. Leaders for three years and those losses to graduation and the net effect of this past year in the transfer portal year left this team very good but not at the highest level of last year.
Nebraska is more mature but still young and if our setting location from passes, is the best of the two teams that day, Nebraska wins. That is our biggest worry for this Nebraska team against any opponent. This team should continue to get incrementally better because of really good overall talent, hunger for prizes, youthful playing talent that practices and plays matches to get better and our opponents in the best conference in the country. You absorb punches and either get better or worse.This post did not get enough likes.
too much posturing and I stopped somewhere around pg.12
someone here has Volleymetric access
Which team passes the best? I would not expect much difference.
I think the team that wins tomorrow will be the team whose middles are the most successful. If the opponents' MB has to hold for fear of middle quicks, and gap go opportunities the left pins will have seams and 1 on 1 opportunities and that will tip the balance.
The Badgers will have the energizing home crowd
Franklin needs to be on her game
WI's left side MUST get touches vs Lauenstein
If both squads are on top of their game the match is a tossup with home court advantage offset by NEB's steady excellence so far during the campaign.
This match has the potential to rival the Pitt-Louisville 5 setter from last weekend, a wonderful example of how great D1 volleyball at the top can be.
I hope both squads play with heart and confidence. We are blessed, not just with how good the B1G is, but how thrilling I expect to the tourney to be. |

I remember reading somewhere that Madison as a girl's first name was not at all common, but that changed after the Tom Hanks-Daryl Hannah movie "Splash:, when Hannah glances up at the Madison Ave. street sign and blurts out her name is Madison. |

darn.......you just made me watch that interview.
Interview highlights, paraphrased: - "We're great"
- "Whenever we want to win any set, we do"
- "We're better than everybody else"
- "Wisconsin gym is a dark, cold dungeon" (actually no paraphrasing needed on that one)
- "We're great"
- "We'll be in Omaha"
- "One doesn't expect a falcon to pull a plow, or a butterfly to cook your breakfast.” (not sure what she was going for on that one)

PS after Wed night it will get easier. PS I'm hoping not to take note of any of your players because it's of absolutely no importance to me. I mean what's to note? You've only had one player as of late that's been at all impressive, and it's only as of late... Allick. Of course, LRod has been doing her thing but quietly. Lauenstein has cooled off from her hot start to the season because there's now tape on her. It's amazing how NE fans think their team is the only team of note, no one knows anything but them. It's no wonder Texas fans hate you. Just relisting this after your recent comments, to demonstrate fans don't always practice what they preach... |
