• The No. 2 Nebraska volleyball team returns home after four straight road matches and will host Michigan State on Friday at 6 p.m. and No. 13 Penn State on Saturday at 7 p.m.

• Friday’s match will air on Nebraska Public Media and will be streamed on B1G+. Saturday’s match will be televised on Big Ten Network and streamed on FoxSports.
Nebraska Public Media?  WTH?

Y'all should get your own network or something.

Nebraska Public Television is also a reason why volleyball is so popular in the State.   They broadcast matches since the 80s.  Their production crews are great.

Purdue defeats OSU in 4 sets.  Went to the game.  Buckeyes had a 25 to 24 advantage in the 4th set, but couldn't put Purdue away who came back to win 28-26.

Saturday’s Nebraska-Wisconsin volleyball showdown will be the sixth No. 1-vs.-2 match in Husker program history. Here’s how the first five went.

I attended that 95 match vs Stanford.  Kristin Folkl and Cara Wendell, quality team.  August match-up.  Think Kerri Walsh was a year later

I see FSN and espn have figured out volleyball is no-brainer counterprogramming against NFL.   Stanford at Oregon on the mothership right now with Purdue at PSU earlier today on FS1.

Meanwhile last night's 3 hour tension filled match between 1 v 2 and obvious big ten big dogs. Nebraska pulled it out in five.

Saturday night’s five-set match between Wisconsin and Nebraska delivered 612,000 viewers on Big Ten Network, becoming the most-watched regular season volleyball broadcast across any network all-time.

The previous record was Nebraska vs. Wisconsin from Black Friday last year, with 587,000 viewers. Earlier this year, Nebraska’s stadium match against Omaha had 518,000 viewers.

Saturday’s volleyball match also pulled in a larger TV audience than the Nebraska-Northwestern football game on Saturday (560,000 viewers).

Makes sense.  Nebraska is a volleyball school.
