Question for those that know more than me, which is everyone. When Texas was on its run in the second set and third set, is there an opportunity to sub out Murray at least until she’s in the front row? I know she’s the 6 rotation outside but she was being targeted in SR and defense like I haven’t seen in a while. I know there are substitution considerations but that was the least of Nebraska’s concerns during those runs. Nellynel, it's a good question. Not sure if you watched the latest episode of Six Rotations, but Mick Haley, who was at the match, provided some insight on what was going on with Texas' serve. If you've not had a chance to see, it might give you another perspective to consider. I won't ruin it for you if you've not watched it.

They subbed out Batenhorst for Kubik. There’s no question they could have subbed out Murray. utrulez (not the right spelling) who says they’re a ref (I believe them) was criticizing Cook for not doing exactly that earlier in the thread. I’m on my phone so I don’t want to go back and find it, but I’ll try to link it when I get to a desktop. They made some really interesting comments while watching at the game. I would love to see your take on their posts since you were there also. Being there Cook was right in that the train was going, and everyone was part of it but 27 had an absolute target on her when she was in the back row for what seemed like every serve or every hit. She wasn’t an attack option for the back row so what are you losing? When you say she's not an attack option, what do you mean? Nebraska definitely uses her as an attack option out of the back row. She's not an option when they're that out of system, though. That much is true.

I'm assuming he could have subbed Kubik for Murray in the 2nd set since Kubik subbed for Batenhorst at 14-10. I don't know if Boesinger (sp?) was available to sub or was already part of that set's playing rotation.

Yes but then Cook would have only been left with 2 pins (both hitting negative) on the court and a super-predictable offense with no backrow attack. Katie George and Holly McPeak suggested Nebraska passing with 2 instead - Lexi and Choboy. IDK why Cook didn't try that

Texas did not put many serves into the lap of Nebraska players, they were aiming for ankles and mixing it up so no one could really get a rhythm. But even on defense, it was like a OC telling his QB to throw the ball to who ever that freshman cornerback is covering.

One thing I noticed during the Wisconsin and Nebraska matches is that Elliott was on his feet calling the zone on all of the serves. Has he been doing this consistently during the year or was this a change? I just don't remember him doing this consistently during matches previously.

It seemed like whenever LHN showed him during a match, he was always sitting on the bench.

If he was calling them from the bench, then likely the camera wasn't catching him and the server in the shot. I guess in Tampa he was either calling them more while standing or the camera was more often catching him and the server in the shot while he was making the signal.
