When did those words ever come out of his mouth? I’m quite certain they never have. The reason Krause was put on the right side the last two years is because she was/is the better blocker. Well, you would most certainly be wrong. I’ll try to provide a link when I get a chance. I recall him saying this as well. I think it was in a recent press conference - before the last two games. I can't speak to why Krause was on the right and if that was primarily because of blocking or something else, but I do also recall Cook recently saying that Ally was the better blocker. |

She has improved IMO. I'm optimistic at this point. No reason not to be. i think so too, at least a bit. She seems to be driving up and forward more, and has got quite a few noticeable hits lately. Like, actually asking if she's hit it that hard prior lol. if she makes some insane OOS play its going to need painstaking focus on wisco's block they're gonna have two up I will agree with that, there are a few hits recently where I have been like "damnnnnn Ally!" Plus want to add she has obviously played well enough because we are in the Final Four! Just because I was curious, her hitting % so far this post season: LIU: .136 Missouri: .136 Georgia Tech: .280 (Go girl!) Arkansas: .062 Harper is hitting even lower then this but her backrow play is incredible. |

hard to say in absolute terms. didn't they allow 2 sets to Nebraska which arguably had less talent than the super teams of Wisconin of 21 and Texas of 22? Hard to say in absolute terms. Maybe Wisconsin '21 and Texas '22 take the first two sets then Penn State proceeds to beat them the next three, albeit with closer scores, en route to sweeping a powerful Stanford team. Ret ro... glitch in the alter egos Chas? |

there are vpns and ways to watch on mobile/laptop. i'm in canada so i know all the workarounds haha, let me know if you need advice on setting up a vpn to watch the games. I have a vpn. What I have been noticing though it that for some streaming companies that is no longer enough. They apparently also started checking whether my credit card is american (which it isn't) so certain services that only are available in certain regions (like Shudder for the horror fans) I can no longer get. Well I guess there's always workarounds hahaha I'll PM you! |

^This is how I'm feeling! I'm so looking forward to the interesting matchups and storylines, especially those in this match. I've got a strong Pitt rooting interest and bias and have paid closer attention to their team this season than I have Nebraska's. I've got no meaningful predictions about the outcome- only hoping it will be a good one.
Looking forward to:
- Laney Choboy flying around on defense and hyping everyone up
- Rachel Fairbanks surprising me, flinging up unexpected sets
- Both teams' talented freshmen writing another chapter in their young postseason careers
- Pitt's graduating seniors fighting to continue their final run (Nwokolo, Monks, & Mosley, Flood?)
- Lexi Rodriguez digging bombs and passing Babcock's topspin jump serve
- and so many more

I'd live for the bolded, but if Babcock's smart she'll try her best to aim at literally anyone else, that serve is freaking ridiculous tho. |
