2020 Texas Volleyball (Hopefully)

[TwiceHorn 31262]

I like to see John Cook lose.  He's a good coach, one of if not the best, but he sure is a smug looking fucker.

I'm as excited and nervous about this as I used to get about football and baseball games at some time in the distant past.  Basketball, too, but that's almost beyond remembrance.

This could possibly be true.  Seems the covid crowds are pretty sparse, regardless.

[Pancho 44454]

Scared of this game. Might “watch” via y’all’s surly updates while getting my chest day on.

I believe they are moving from the smaller, segmented spaces to the larger arena space for the E8/FF/Champ.  But I think it’s still only 25%

[Js1 85095]

Pitt up 2-0

I'll update you every time they mention Lexi Sun being a transfer from Texas. I need to get my post count above 2,000.

Make it a day drinking game and you’ll be dead by the 12th point

My guess is passed out in 2nd Set... 😋

[Js1 85095]

UW takes set 3.  2-1 Pitt 

[LTtxfan 48962]

So I guess this is tailgating time -- fajitas and margaritas for me. 🤘 

 

What are keys to beating Nebraska for UT??

I'm going to guess that Corn is going to be as good on defense as any team we've played, or better.

So, we are going to need to do what we do best:  block and terminate the attacks.  And probably spread the offense around.

Corn seems to agree.  https://www.cornnation.com/2021/4/19/22390942/5-nebraska-vs-4-texas-game-thread-ncaa-womens

[Js1 85095]

Basically. Corn may be more fundamentally sound on defense, but PSU was scrappier. 

We did pretty well defensively too. 

We gonna start late, regardless.

[perfectchaos007 6596]

Corn always boasts a gods gift to DS player. Not surprised they are still a good defensive team

[WBT 20415]

Going to the 5th.  Will midnight strike for Pitt?  Also pushes our game farther back.

Would think we don't start until closer to 3?

20-30 min to do set 5  + 45 min between matches

HORNS have to serve and receive serve better imo -- first pass on receiving may decide if TEXAS wins or not

WWWWWWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOFFFF!!!

Bow down to Washington, bishes!

[Js1 85095]

Clock struck for Pitt. They were fun to watch 

 

[Js1 85095]

So roughly 2:35 i guess

[Beau Vine 53983]

Apparently she was Miss Kentucky *after* she was a vball All-American at Louisville.

Black unis. In before the meltdown.

She came out for warmups. Game time decision 

[texasstrong12 4668]

Looks like she's giving it an attempt to go.

Looks like now Neb is in black long sleeves. Earlier they were in red tops & we had black short sleeves.

She ain’t gonna sit out a Texas match. There’s no way 

[kingkoopa6 8312]

Damn. That was intense. I felt like I was in the back court 

[wood 11121]

Feast or famine?  Isn't he also responsible for back row play?

[Js1 85095]

Texas first to 20
