Bruinsgold calculated potential B10 Player of the Week Nominees Wisconsin: 2-0 (3-0 USC; 3-1 UCLA) Sarah Franklin - 4.6 kps (.453), 1.4 dps Charlie Fuerbringer (FRESHMAN) - 11.7 aps (TEAM: .373), 0.6 bps, 2.4 dps Does anyone know what Anna’s stats looked like? Didn’t she lead in kills one of the nights? No. Anna hit 0.190 against USC with 7 kills, and 0.609 with 16 kills vs. UCLA. Sarah led in kills both nights.

I checked social media to get us some answers abt Lola Lola posted a photo on TikTok confirming she HAS a concussion, but it has since been deleted. She also shared a farewell post on Instagram on 11/8 for her Nana, who recently passed away. I would assume that Lola will not be playing on Wednesday. Even if it isn’t a “bad” concussion, she still needs to sit for an amount of time. Unsure how long that may be I hope Lola gets better AND I hope if she's not ready to go on Wednesday, that Saige gets the libero spot. I CANNOT handle GG at libero for two Minnesota matches this year!

Since the new rankings came out, does anybody know where the 2025 recruits are ranked?

The difference 9-4 is pretty small. Badgers just have to beat Minnesota and Nebraska, I think they are hosting. I say "just" only because it is a pretty simple formula now, not because it will be easy. That said, they were always going to aim to beat Nebrasska and the gophers, so from the players' point of view things really haven't changed.

Wisconsin needs to win out, and they need Louisville and Penn State to lose. Even then they still might not be a top four seed.

If Wisconsin wins out and Penn State loses, Wisconsin will be a top four seed. So would be Louisville, Nebraska, and Pitt. Wisconsin will have jumped over Penn State and Creighton.

But I guess Stanford could creep back in, depending on what happens in the last week of ACC play.

Wisconsin needs to win out, and they need Louisville and Penn State to lose. Even then they still might not be a top four seed. I don't think they need PSU to lose. The RPI is close 4-9. Close enough to not matter all that much, giving the committee leeway to use judgment. If they beat Nebraska in Lincoln, and the gophers, they get the credit they are not getting for beating PSU at home handily, especially if they win convincingly. Louisville is in based on RPI. I know PSU beat them, but they are well clear unless something catastrophic happens to them. The huskers are in - even if they lose to both UW and PSU, IMO. This discussion will be about the 4th spot. If Nebraska beats PSU at home, then PSU is definitely not top 4. Creighton would go in before them. UW gains credibility by beating the huskers regardless of what PSU does because of the head to head between UW and PSU. Creighton lost to the huskers in Lincoln, and that provides cover for the badgers to be picked over the blue jays. That's how I think the thinking would play out in the very specific case of the badgers beating the huskers. That has yet to happen!

If PSU doesn't lose, that means that PSU will have beaten Nebraska, too. PSU can claim the Wisconsin loss as an off night, in a tough arena to play in, coming off a game the day before. With only 2 losses, PSU stays at number 4. They need PSU to loose to Nebraska. BUT, if PSU beats Nebraska and Wisconsin beats Nebraska, then all three of them will share the BIG Ten title this year. So, a great outcome for Wisconsin either way if they can get 2 wins this week.
