Lol right. I watched that Weds night match and uh... idk where they got 780 from lol it looked like 200 people max on TV. Staff, grounds keeper, concession, maybe they counted remote workers. Lol the 580 was the TV viewership  |

No, they are overrated. They could've easily just lost in 4. San Diego is no #2 team in the nation, such a joke. They're getting waxed by any high caliber team in the tourney and I'd be SHOCKED if they made it to the Sweet 16. okay now i know you’re just trolling haha. USD would smoke Minnesota Purdue GT PSU Kentucky Florida if the tournament started now. lol, no they'd maybe go 5 with Michigan, Washington St, or Miami |

I'll compare USD going 5 at LMU with Nebraska going 5 at Northwestern. (except USD didn't have the luxury of their opponent playing without a setter in set 5) We didn't go 5 with Northwestern twice though, swept them the first time You also swept LMU and Pepperdine, so those common opponents are more relevant. Then there's the OSU comp, which is in San Diego's favor. |

I like San Diego, they are very talented veteran team. They are worthy of their ranking and they can challenge anyone. And say what you want, they need games like this to challenge them. The biggest thing about them being in a smaller conference, is the ability to relax. They can get relaxed because they’re sweeping a lot of opponents. I promise you, San Diego wants Pepperdine, LMU and BYU to play their best against them. They need the challenge, the feeling that every single point is important. They don’t get that week to week like a team in the BIG10. This is exactly correct. They have waltzed through a very easy conference schedule and fortunately for them, they have their 3 toughest opponents at the end of the season. I compare them to 2018 BYU who was #1 most of the season and ended up in the Final Four with a similar resume. I do question if their top 25 wins will be enough for the committee to elevate them above Stanford or the top two B1G teams, especially if they are at 6 in RPI. |

It was nice seeing Frohling step up when Lukes wasn’t playing her best. Frohling hasn’t carried as big of a load this season so I wasn’t sure if she still had it in her.

LMU's coach did a masterful job last night. He keyed on taking Lukes out of the game by serving her every ball and triple blocking her with 6'6 Geisberger. Frohling and Blackwell did a terrific job picking up the slack.
LMU played very well, a quality win on the road. I think it is great that USD was challenged after not being for 6 weeks.

Baylor has 5,600 in attendance for Texas. In a pretty big game for B12 standings vs Iowa St they had 780. Lol right. I watched that Weds night match and uh... idk where they got 780 from lol it looked like 200 people max on TV. The arena seats 10,000 and people spread out all around the entire bowl so it makes attendance look light even when there are decent numbers. If 2,000 people showed up, the arena would still look only 1/5 full. It’s too big of a space for Baylor. |

PS, not tryna involve myself in all the junk I just read, but the top of the WCC is just as good as the top of any conference in the country IMO. Meh. Pepperdine isn't good anymore. |

PS, not tryna involve myself in all the junk I just read, but the top of the WCC is just as good as the top of any conference in the country IMO. SD might not get pushed often, but that's more a reflection of how good they are than how weak the conference is. It's just like TX and the B12 -- when every team circles the date on their calendar when they get a shot to bring you down, you're gonna play some close matches bc you're getting everyone's best. (Also, the B12 for what it lacks at the top, doesn't really fall off that dramatically. WV is winless in conf play, and I think they're better than the bottom 2-3 teams in every other power 5 conference.) Did I read that right??! WCC just as good as any conference?? So the top of the WCC, let's say top 5 teams include SD, BYU, LMU, Pepperdine, and Pacific B1G: Wisco, Neb, Ohio St, Penn St, Minn ACC: Louisville, Pitt, Georgia Tech, Miami, Florida St PAC: Stanford, Oregon, Wash, Washington St, USC Not even close, lmao. If anything the top of the WCC is close in comp to the Big12 or SEC, but certainly not any of the three just listed |

But you could try Sears. |

But you could try Sears. he’s probably just still reeling from the fact he said there’s no way San Diego could beat osu again the way they have been playing. But then Indiana and Maryland both beat them. Lmao |

But then Indiana and Maryland both beat them. Lmao Here we go, I make an argument and you're gonna cry, this time about 5 being too big? There are 14 teams in the B1G, SEC, and 15 in the ACC. When you're talking about the top teams in a conf. you can very well mean the top 5, maybe minus the B12 and WCC bc they're smaller. But still that's only 2 of the conferences being small. not majority. Example, when you say the top teams in the B1G you certainly mean WI, NE, MN, OSU and PSU. Maybe that's just cuz we're too good cuz on the other hand if you say top teams in the ACC I'm only saying Lou, Pitt, Gt. IDK Lmao. Now ms.madden55 there's no way SD beats OSU the way they played Neb. That was crazy good vb. But the way they're playing rn? SD beats them. That's sports for ya. Some teams are weird which makes making a bracket hard as hell for teams like Ohio. Could I see them competing in the Final4? Heck Yes. Could I see them getting upset second round? After their last two matches, heck yeah. Cheers for the tourney |
