I'll play that card, but there's no way there going to be able to spot 1 or 2 sets on Saturday.    That match was a clinic (as was the BYU/Stanford match) on how aggressive serve, and serve receive can determine a match.  All these attackers and blockers are great, but at this level, you have to stay in the match with good passing.

Illinois finally started hitting service errors which helped too down the stretch.

Very nice comeback from the Huskers, well-done!
I predict Stanford-Nebraska will NOT be a sweep in either direction.  :)

Stanford is good..  very impressive.   I'm not sure UNL can win a set.  

All that said, what a year for the huskers.   8 new players and you return to the finals.  Heck of a season...  Exceeded expectations.... fans and program should be proud.

true, especially the first line
damn, I'm going to Minneapolis this afternoon to be at the Viking's game tomorrow.  I should go scalp a ticket and watch this match.

Bought 5 tickets, back in January, for the Volleyball event this weekend. Turned out my middle kid had a school concert that she didn't want to miss. Another kid didn't want to miss her own volleyball practice. What the !#?! So Mom stayed backed and took care of them. 

Invited my Nebraska native neighbor and his two kids. We skipped the first match due to after school activities & homework. I've never seen so many tall people congregated in one area- the main floor concourse. Everyone but me was over 6 ft. We even saw the 6'8 Wisconsin gal. It was something. 

What a match! #7 from Illinois was impressive. But Nebraska just seemed like the better overall team. Great atmosphere with a ton of Nebraska fans. 

Woke up Friday and asked my kids if they were excited to go Saturday night. I heard one "meh" and an "I don't care". Put the tickets on Stub Hub- 20 min later they sold for $695...paid $390. Thank you Nebraska!

Go Huskers tonight!

A superb finals match for first time in awhile.  High level play all around.  Stanford's serve edge in sets 1 and 5 really the marginal difference in the match.

Each team had one set where they just annihilated the other. Crazy match.

Cook and the team impressed me last night.   They really played well and rose to the occasion.
