I really hope Parra plays. I’m as much a volleyball fan, in general, as I’m a Texas fan. With Parra playing, it’s going to be so much more fun to watch, whatever the score. Texas’ propensity to give up long scoring runs means anybody they play has a fair chance of beating them, even if on paper they should be/are the favorite. Fortunately, talent has still won out most of the time this season. I’m actually kinda surprised Texas just has 3 losses, especially after watching Minnesota struggle so badly, with arguably better talent than most teams they’ve played. Obviously, BYU put down some huge scoring runs against Texas. Which other teams did so, as well? Figuring Stanford did.

Washington State did, which unfortunately led to us losing that second set (and arguably the match). Houston did in match 1, set 2.

Washington State did, which unfortunately led to us losing that second set (and arguably the match). Houston did in match 1, set 2. I just started watching my recording of the WSU match. Texas got down 2-6, and then went on a 6-0 "run" to get back in the first set which they eventually won. So, I'm sure WSU probably believes they let that set get away based on a Texas "run" especially since Texas didn't take its first lead until 20-19. . .

Translation (more or less): "We'll see you all tomorrow. Looking forward to your 100% support, so don't let down against Texas."Leads me to believe she will play if she's tweeting for fan support.

My cable guide doesn't indicate the match is on ESPN2; but, I set the DVR anyway; hoping for the best (and a win!)

I don't know if it helps, but it's showing up on mine right after Pardon the Interruption at 5:30. Make sure you have the right day/time. Not that you wouldn't have checked. Just don't want you to miss the recording.

this parking is the most ridiculous parking situation I’ve ever experienced for a sporting event. I’ve been stuck in standstill traffic on their campus for 45 minutes and still haven’t gotten a spot. the lot that they directed people to that took me 30 minutes to get to is now “closed”

Do not support rubbish parking garage buildings.
