Texas' strength seems to be serving. Nebraska's strength is passing. It will be interesting to see which one prevails. I think it will be Nebraska. They're too solid in all aspects of the game. But Texas is COMPETING so I don't expect it to be easy. I just hope for a close match. The semis were a bit of a letdown. Nebraska struggles against tough serving, the only time they really struggle |

Nebraska struggles against tough serving, the only time they really struggle Eh, their struggling is not the same as others struggling. We'll see! Murray, Choboy, and Batenhorst can definitely be picked on in SR at times. Fortunately teams end up serving Rodriguez quite a bit, I think due to Nebraska's SR scheme and Lexi passes lights out. They've been disguising where Rodriguez is lining up a lot and having her cover a good half of the court so she ends up taking way more balls than I think other teams would like. If Texas is able to keep targeting the others, they are all prone to struggling at times. |

Rodriguez > Halter although Halter is the reason Texas beat Wisconsin. If she plays at her semifinal level this is way closer than most people think. Last night, Halter > Rodriguez. If Halter plays at her semifinal level in the finals, Halter > Rodriguez again, even if Rodriguez plays her best. Now you’ve gone delusional |

GBR this should be one hell of a match. Both sides played great last night. With these two teams even on an NFL Sunday it should be some amazing numbers for ABC

If Texas is able to keep targeting the others, they are all prone to struggling at times. Unlike Wisconsin where they basically have only 3 passers, partially due to scheme and partially due to depth, they aren't totally helpless if 1 or 2 of their passes are having a bad time. I think that's the big difference. Nebraska has more versatility to move things around, and don't have to leave the same player to get Aced 4 times in a row without doing anything. |

So Purdue and PS took Nebraska to 5; and they lost to Wisconsin 0-3, a month ago. Interesting.

They also were a couple points from getting bounced from the tourney by Tennessee. That's not even counting the other questionable losses they've had like LBSU. I think if Texas plays their best, they're tough, but I think they're far more likely to lay an egg on a given night than Nebraska. |

In fact it was a team I didn’t even recognize. I wonder behind the scenes if something serious was going on? I’ve never seen a team implode like that.I really feel for them because they were on an absolute roll at the end of the season. |
