Ok. A post to talk myself off the ledge. First off, I don’t really care about winning the B1G. Been there, done that - lost the National Championship. Next, that was, by far, the toughest environment the Huskers have faced all year and will face the for the rest of the season/tourney. Also, this match felt similar to the Texas match last year. Maybe the moment was bigger than anyone wanted to admit. So be it. The pins were bad. The setting was marginal. And the passing was shaky, at best.
All this being said, with all that going against them, the Huskers could have won that match - even with CJ going full John Wick on them. Cheer up everyone, this is a really good team and they are going to be right there at the end.

Nebraska is one of the most balanced teams in the country, with the obvious advantages that comes from that.
But do y’all think that can lead to having no one player who can step up and pull the team to victory when they’re down? Obviously y’all haven’t been down much this season to test out that hypothesis

Obviously y’all haven’t been down much this season to test out that hypothesis Absolutely. Especially if the setting and coaching decisions don't enable a player stepping up. Sarah Pavan and her husband said on their podcast that they felt early in the season Andi was the player who had that "killer instinct" that you want in a top team. She hit the best tonight and had the most blocks...and had the fewest sets. I absolutely think she could take over a match, especially as she matures. But she can't and won't if she doesn't get set. Same thing with Harper to a degree, I thought she had glimmers of it tonight. I wonder sometimes if the plan focuses excessively on spreading out the offense, at the expense of letting players get hot. |

Obviously y’all haven’t been down much this season to test out that hypothesis This is interesting, and something I've been thinking about a lot lately. I would trade Nebraska's balanced approach for even someone like Emily Londot, who you know can put you on your back when you need. Beason's not that player. Landfair sure isn't. And I don't think Murray is confident enough yet. I'd even take a Raina Terry. The whole team seems to lack confidence at times. It makes you miss a player like Mikaela Foecke, who scored even when the whole gym knew she was getting the ball. They either can't recruit that or can't train it. I've long wondered what exactly is the systemic flaw in how Nebraska schemes and trains offense. They're such a defensive-focused program, that it sometimes seems siding out is an afterthought. Their routes aren't particularly creative. They seem to be the worst good team in the country at tooling the block. This year, it's been Tip City. What good is having great passers if you can't transition it into kills? That's where your national titles are won and lost. |

If we had at minimum, the Bergen from September 2023, this match would've played different. |

As an opposing fan having a lot of pain on that, Foecke was the best I have ever seen on putting the ball on the line over the block, and Tomasevic was second, which I got to see in the start of Washington being good in Madison. You can't fault players for not being among the best ever in a certain skill. |

He really helped with Hunter’s development. It’s painful to watch someone like Reilly regress. |

Does anyone feel maybe the former teammates on the other side got into their heads? Like not wanting to lose to them so bad that it brought too much pressure?
I didn't have that feeling at all when they played Ally as she was adored by the whole team.
I don't want to imply that CJ and Maggie don't still have good relationships with the Huskers. They obviously had something to prove this game and did just that.
Just wondering if seeing their former teammates go off triggered something.

Lots of recent analysis saw a Nebraska loss on the horizon the past 3.5 weeks. We've been sluggish, no fire and flat. Hopefully this wakes up the whole squad, and this goes for the whole coaching staff as well. Cook also played a part in this loss. Lots of questions 🤔..... |
