You might've lost the match but Wisconsin is clearly Andi Jackson's kryptonite. Really silenced the most efficient hitter in the country both times this season, or she was before this match anyway. Oh sorry, we aren’t taking visitors tonight. Please see yourself out. Thanks |

The SEs didn't help. Julia being in the net on set-tying point in late set 2 didn't help. The overdigs on some pretty simple essential free balls didn't help. The ultra tight sets on some good contacts didn't help. Sarah and Anna didn't take advantage of the few good sets they did have. It was a mess all around. Booth was the one bright spot on offense tonight. She was leaving some gaps in the block but she at least brought in offensively tonight. So props to her for that. The rest of the team need to go back to the basics. To channel Sheffield in what I expect he is saying post-match right now, good teams pressure you into making errors. Nebraska is a very good team. Sheff also needs to help his team out. What is with this aversion to challenging this year? That Orzol line shot in set 2 literally changed momentum. And then in set 3 down 5 he...STILL refuses to challenge on a questionable call. Meanwhile Cook will challenge on even match point just in case (literally happened in the NC 3 years ago). Even on the very obvious touch tonight the entire team had to plead to him to challenge. Sheff has obviously forgotten more about volleyball than I will ever even learn, but I can't understand this aversion to challenging?? |

I found that I became more Zen-like after spending 9 nights in the hospital with sepsis, Covid in both lungs and double pneumonia. That said, it's not the best path to enlightenment and truth be told, I'm pretty pissed right now  |

Cook was out of challenges, what?, ten points into the 2nd set tonight. No, it ended up not making any difference, but it could have. Sheffield challenged twice tonight, IIRC, and won both. |

Disappointed but not upset. Nebraska's defense is just so good and right now we aren't good enough to terminate consistently against what they're bringing. The first 7 points of the game, you knew we were in trouble because we were passing dimes and they still were defending everything. They had breakdowns on offense but defensively they're the one team where I feel like it's them stopping us and not us stopping ourselves.

He needs an agressive assistant that makes him pull that card. No Subs. No Challenges. No calling out %*$#ty plays tonight.... |

That said, it's not the best path to enlightenment and truth be told, I'm pretty pissed right now Sorry to hear that. I’m a twenty-something year old girl who unexpectedly lost her dad a few months ago. You can go ahead and choose maturity and peace tonight, but I absolutely will not. LOL That is really tough, I'm sorry for your loss. Let it all out tonight |

One of the challenges took the team absolutely pleading with him. I can't remember the other one. And at that point in set 3 on what could have been Robinson hitting in hit, he still had both challenges....and decided not to use it. Why? What does he have to lose? And my point was that Cook is not shy to challenges, to the point that he will even challenge on match point. Sheff seems like he has excessively shied away from challenging this year, even on very obvious overturns. It happened in the first Nebraska match too, on a point where Sarah clearly got the ball up and the ref called it down. |

When match point is going against you, it isn't some act of bravery to challenge; it is quite literally "what do you have to lose?". (And I don't know if you know this, but a day or two later, the Badger video people came across a piece of video that showed Dana *absolutely* did not touch the ball. The refs got that one wrong; Cook should have lost that challenge, as well.) https://www.tiktok.com/@dana_rettke/video/7043970220599528751 |

When he had BOTH of his challenges remaining? In challenging maybe the ref make a bad call (just like in your example) to overturn EVEN if it wasn't in. |

I understand being frustrated by the loss tonight, but "challenges" weren't gonna make the difference. The small things add up? Julia's net alone probably doesn't make a difference, a couple of overdigs here and there doesn't make a difference, a couple of SEs here and there doesn't make a difference, but added up they made a huge difference. Clearly, talent-wise, we went points-for-points with Nebraska for most of the matches we've played and then have crumbled at the end. That's typically where these seemingly small things make a big difference. And challenges are 100% within our control, unlike the other small things I listed. |
