Granted, against very weak competition, but Indiana is already at 3.889 aces/set over 3 matches : ) but clearly they intend for that to continue as their brand.

it took me way too long to figure out that "exploration" as a major is a fancy way of saying "undecided" lol

Nebraska Cornhuskers2023 Projected Lineup:The unknown here is true freshman Andi Jackson, whose quickness and athleticism make her a tantalizing option as an M1. Jackson's biggest obstacle is acquainting herself with the speed and technique of the blocking phase. To be clear, there's no replacing Hord's blocking numbers. Great write-up Kingsley! Can we start firing up the Andi Jackson hype train already? I'm on it, driving, checking tickets, ... whatever is needed

Wisconsin has a big problem at libero. it's going to cost them a match sooner rather than later [and I'm a Badger fan]. Nebraska seems to have a big edge in the back-row. Business as usual I guess.

GG not it this year? Not to this point. I think everyone from Kelly Sheffield all the way to little old me was looking for significant improvement because, e.g., second year in the Badger system, a year in the US and BIG under her belt etc. I hope she's able to handle the pressure. Meanwhile, lots of experimentation is going on.

GG not it this year? Still passing way too many 1's and 0's. Her perfect pass percentage (by my eye test) is pretty strong, just not a high enough good pass percentage.

1. Wisconsin 2. Minnesota 3. PSU 4. Nebraska 5. Purdue 6. Indiana 7. OSU 8. Iowa 9. Maryland 9. Northwestern 11. Illinois 12. MSU 13. Michigan 14. Rutgers Revised: 1. Wisconsin 2. Nebraska 3. Minnesota 4. PSU 5. Purdue 6. Indiana 7. OSU 8. Iowa 9. Maryland 9. MSU 11. Illinois 12. Northwestern 13. Rutgers 14. Michigan PSU may be better than Minnesota. They weren’t as bad as it appeared the first week and were much improved the second week. With their line-up I see them getting better going forward. Minnesota just looks like a team with talent that is soft. If Landfair is gonna be 6R she has to be better. Purdue plays hard but their middles are wooful and setting is still a work in process, but they are entertaining to watch. Indiana just wilted late in games at Long Beach last weekend in all three matches. OSU is a work in process and we won’t know for a couple weeks where they are headed. I don’t see Iowa above Illinois, Maryland or MSU. Wisconsin has a lot of good parts but I don’t see anything near the elite level in their setting or passing. But on September 1, they are the best B1G team. Nebraska is very young, very talented and up to now very distracted with this stadium match hoopla. I have no doubt they will rapidly improve the next 6 weeks-the more they are stressed the better it will be. They need 4 and 5 set matches. Reilly is better than anyone could have hoped. Her level of play really highlights how dreadful the settling was a year ago. Beason was elite for 2 games on Sunday, and needs to be that way going forward. In the middle Allick is a great blocker but her offense needs to improve. Jackson has a quick arm and reminds me of Anna Stevenson from Louisville, but is more athletic. She is going to be a great volleyball player, will that happen this year? Although all of the freshman have shown rapid and substantial improvement since the spring no one on the roster has grown like Jackson. Murray is an all around 6R OH and has been a serving target each match and her passing appears to have held up and is improving. Her blocking and back row attacking are very advanced. Krause is showing signs of settling in as the second OH. Rodriquez and Choboy are tremendous backrow players-it seems they will carry a lot of the load while the offense finds itself. Rodriquez also is a real asset setting OOS balls. Much of the load is on four of the freshman and they all have lived up to the hype. Serving needs to improve going forward, it was subpar at K-State on Sunday. We’ll see how the next two weeks go when they play Creighton, Long Beach, Kentucky and Stanford. We’ll see where they are. the B1G will come down to Wisconsin, Nebraska and Penn State, imo. 🏐
