Might as well put this here. AVCA's preseason T25.  Notorious for backward looking and often ridiculed by geeks like me.    Two things stand out to me, who's putting UT outside of #3 on their ballot?  San Diego 25th is quite off.

The Wolverines head to Flagstaff week 1, where they will square off against my Dixie State Trailblazers. :o

MSU appears to be playing a VERY weak OOC slate this year, their first under the new coach.  So they could (should?) roll into conference play at like 10-1/9-2, and it won't mean much

Horns open Fri/Sat with a double-header against the Buckeyes in Columbus, and then a few days later face the Gophs at home.  Should be fun.  I love how in volleyball, the top teams are willing to schedule early OOC matches against one another.

Nebraska's match on Thursday, Sept. 1 against Loyola Marymount has moved up one hour to a 6 p.m. start time and will now be televised statewide by Nebraska Public Media.

The match was originally scheduled for a 7 p.m. start with no television broadcast. It will still be streamed on B1G+ (BTNPlus.com) and will be carried on the Huskers Radio Network affiliates, Huskers.com and the Huskers app.

The Huskers now have 19 televised matches this season with Nebraska Public Media able to carry five matches in addition to 12 on Big Ten Network, one on ESPNU and one on FS1.

Not picking on Texas but the portal is so evident in Volleyball at P5 level.   Five big ones for the Horns to compliment Eggleston, O'Neal and co.   I saw a list of P5 transfers and it is ginormous

They were good, but looked like someone stuffed a women's basketball team into volleyball uniforms.

Dropped the first set in the second match.  Sets in the first match were pretty hotly contested as well.  Won't be at all surprised to see these two face off again in the playoff.

Horns continue their B1G tour when Minnesota comes to Austin in a few days, should be some more close sets,
