Just like 2012, Texas faces the NPOY when our player was robbed

how the fuck did we lose to rice

Chuck Daly 'Dream Team' move by Elliott, IMO.

[ruitxn 296]

Solid, solid sweep. Hook’em

[Cairn Horn88 8262]

Holy moly.....saw it, but can’t believe it.   Totally undefeated Wisky swept......wow.  Bring on KY jelly.

That's just like The Dream did The Admiral when The Dream was robbed of the MVP.

Honestly, don’t even think we played our “best” in that sweep.

Barnes might be the greatest defensive player EVER 🙄

It only feels like Barnes had more than 13 digs in 3 sets because you talked about her during or after every point. 

[BurntOrange&White 39931]

How do we match up vs Kentucky?

This is true and speaks to how overrated Wisconsin was. Gonna have to tighten up big time against 'tucky.

[perfectchaos007 6634]

I think we just won the Big 10 championship. We'll play for the national championship Saturday

[Js1 85310]

I’ll do my Kentucky breakdown tomorrow. But I’ll tell you they ain’t as tall as Wisky.  Also has a first team AA setter.

Didn't their setter win national player of the year? Or was that someone else

These announcers sucked Wisconsin dick all the way to the end 

Haha they both are regular UT volleyball announcers, and one used to coach here. Tbh I didn’t notice much bias besides Paul building up Wisconsin a bit so people didn’t change the channel.

She did. Hilley was first team AA too. 

Coaching advantage here may be Elliot - he’s been here in 09, 12, 15 and 16. Kentucky has never gotten this far

Rice, if not for COVID, could have been our Sweet 16 opponent. They could have beaten PSU.

So the secsec has never won a national championship in volleyball.....let’s keep it that way!

Whisky certainly slowed Logan down, but damn what depth of hitters TEXAS has !!!! 🤘

Thankfully, I don't think their libero is going make astonishing digs on colossal hits.

[Brandywine 1316]

Great win!

That's all it was.  Like any national broadcaster for any sport ever, they were hoping for the trailing team to at least make it close.

[texfan11 90]

Rettke seemed off these past few matches, but I’m guessing she had a good enough season since she was named an All American

They def slowed her down. 17-6-48

The block affected our OHs - they had a combined 10 errors. Everyone else had 4. 

The middles tho! Butler 11-1-16 and O’Neal 11-0-18

She said she got COVID a while back and took a long time to get her legs back.

13 digs, 43 LET’S GO!!!!!!’s

After a bit of a rough start, Logan really earned her keep defensively.  

[NorthLoop 14190]

Micha Hancock didn't transfer to UK for her 12th year of eligibility right?  Ok whew. 

[Cairn Horn88 8262]

What time Sat night is the Championship.....7:00 ESPN?

[sunset87 240]

If Texas keeps playing this level of D and Jhenna can continue to spread the ball around we ain’t losing.

Very happy that jhenna set the middles as much as she did. In the past that seemed to be an advantage that we didn’t exploit nearly enough, deferring to the pins most of the time. Which is fine because of who is out there, but it does usually give the block time to muster. 

[TwiceHorn 31450]

Damn, Molly only had four kills for .154 according to the box.  That seems a little extra low, but they were clutch.

[Js1 85310]

Texas hit just over .300 - another .300+ match against those elite B1G defenses. 

Only 8 SE and only got aced 3 times. Def helps to not give away free points.

Just like in 2005... hope the outcome is the same for the team. Hook ‘em!

[Js1 85310]

1995 - last champ match featuring a non-B1G and non-Pac 12 (Texas vs Nebraska)

1988 - last champ match featuring a team not *currently* in the B1G or Pac (Texas vs Hawaii)

That was just as fun as when we swept #1 Nebraska in the 2016 Final Four.
