I believe they’d be co-champs, a tie breaker would be added for automatic bid purposes only. No official meaning. All the stat shows is how amazingly dominant Wisconsin has been in conference play. And it may suggest who should be favored next Saturday. I don't think there is any question who should be favored for next Saturday. It would be a safe thing to say as well that an overwhelming majority of the Nebraska fanbase agrees that Wisconsin is the favorite. We may not like it, but reality is reality. Wisconsin has an outstanding team. But so does Nebraska. I am perfectly fine with admitting that Wisconsin is the favorite for next Saturday.

Eva’s would have this as a “pick ‘em” or Nebraska very slight favorite.

Especially when you go with experience alone. Wisconsin plays 6 seniors who are constantly dominating opponents. I honestly wasn’t sure if not losing sets(sweeping) mattered in the long run.

"Tantalizing, isn't it? Seriously, Devyn has a not further defined shoulder injury, but has been in sweats during the last 2 matches looking pretty perky. MJ sustained a concussion in practice and isn't around for the match. We simply don't know what will happen."
The Badgers ran a 5-1 in their last 2 matches. Stay tuned gents.

I have belief that both players will be fit and ready for Saturday. Nothing really tantalizing about it, to be honest. I hope they are fit enough to play!

I hope they are fit enough to play! the way Wisconsin looked this week, as a Husker fan I think I am looking forward to your return to the 6-2. Wisconsin at a 5-1 does have some major advantages over their 6-2. They are much less likely to run out of subs and have better serve receive. The big weakness is replacing Drob with Izzy as a blocker and losing 3 rotations of Drob hitting. Against Nebraska, shoring up SR could be worth the drop off on offense/blocking for 3 rotations.

(i know robinson is an opposite, but she did start as a middle with wisconsin right?

Against Nebraska, shoring up SR could be worth the drop off on offense/blocking for 3 rotations. Major disadvantages in a 5-1 for Wisconsin -Ashburn becomes an immediate blocking liability, for obvious height reasons but more because it’s a skill she just hasn’t done in actual B1G matches (except for last weekend). -the entire team, after 15 matches has developed a rhythm on offense and defense, changing offenses disrupts that.. on the other hand, -there isn’t as much video of Wisconsin operating the 5-1, so defending the 5-1 based on a season of 6-2 video is less helpful… Making major changes in what offense you run has both advantages and disadvantages, but making a change because of an injury never helps… hope she is back at full strength..
