2021 Texas Volleyball

[Js1 85929]

This Bien bitch. Did we not scout her?

20-22

[TwiceHorn 31705]

I mean, all our hits, of any kind, are spraying all over the goddamn place.

[Js1 85929]

RS block has been tooled about infinity times today 

[TwiceHorn 31705]

We're fucking around and about to find out.

[Js1 85929]

Is Sullivan going to make an adjustment to our RS block or nah? 

[Js1 85929]

21-25. 0-2

We are fucked 

[TwiceHorn 31705]

I mean, can you really not restrain your serve on set point?

Christ.

What a fucking day.

[Js1 85929]

Statcast not working but pretty sure we have 0 blocks 

[texfan11 90]

I can’t tell if our hits are seeming weak because of the sets, KUs defense/block, or if it’s just a bad day for both Eggleston  and Fields. 
 

also, are KUs jerseys an eggshell color? It’s kinda odd 
 

 

[Js1 85929]

We started this set in a different rotation

As many offensive stars as we perennially have, we seem to go as our marquee player goes.  Logan having a terrible game, team has terrible game.  True of Micaya as well.

[Js1 85929]

15-12 Texas

[Js1 85929]

Lead evaporated quickly. 18-18. 

[TwiceHorn 31705]

Tied at 18.  Looked ok for a minute, now looking like we're gonna get swept.

[Js1 85929]

Bien going to be Big 12/NCAA/whole universe player of the week

[Js1 85929]

23-21 Texas

[Js1 85929]

25-21 Texas. 2-1 KU

[TwiceHorn 31705]

Well, we survive another set, but I'm not seeing anything that indicates we can win the match.

[Js1 85929]

Apparently we are just going to stare at the ball 

[Js1 85929]

5-9. TO. Looks dire 

[TwiceHorn 31705]

9-5 probably going down.

[TwiceHorn 31705]

If Jhenna gets a clean set, they don't look too bad, but we're not getting good hits off them.

And she's not getting to get clean sets very often.

[Js1 85929]

KU block knows exactly where to set up. Wholly unimpressed with JG’s choices today. She’s asking to get benched 

[Js1 85929]

11-11. Not dead in the water yet 

[Js1 85929]

15-13 Texas

[Js1 85929]

Nani “setter” dump! 

[Js1 85929]

20-17 Texas. So close to forcing a fifth set 

[TwiceHorn 31705]

My general response to our performance, despite leading currently:

[TwiceHorn 31705]

Also, Js1, is KU still RV?  Who are their losses?

No. Loyola Marymount, Purdue, WKy, ISU

[Js1 85929]

As if this hasn’t been ugly to watch in 4, let’s play 5

25-19 Texas. 2-2

Yeesh.  They were ranked or RV earlier though, right?

Well, we get a 5th.

[Js1 85929]

Parra aces and Molly slams get me so fired up. 6-3 Texas

[Js1 85929]

Now 2 Parra aces in the fifth set 

[Js1 85929]

8-4 went to 9-8 pretty fast. 

Note to Texas: if you’re going to send back an overpass, HAMMER it or dig it for an attack. Don’t send over junk

[TexasDPT 297]

missed serves are hurting us

[Js1 85929]

Good fucking GOD, some mega digs there by Nani. Jesus 

[TexasDPT 297]

replay showed moving fingers on KU...let's see if they give it to Texas

[Js1 85929]

Texas got just hosed. The touch was there 

[TexasDPT 297]

Fuckin' refs!

[TexasDPT 297]

guess they aren't going to be calling doubles in this match

[Js1 85929]

Never in doubt! 

[Js1 85929]

Reverse sweep. Texas pulled an OU today on KU

We never looked good or right, but pulled it out.  I guess that's something.

[perfectchaos007 6723]

Heh. I tuned in just in time to catch the final 3 points. I just got back from the cotton bowl so, happy to see volleyball avoid the loss

Yeah that was a gritty grind it out 5 setter.  And we play them tomorrow….

[Pato del Muerto 52975]

Looked very average in the last 2 sets that I saw, but did just enough. 

[texfan11 90]

So we play again tomorrow? 😬😬

[TexasDPT 297]

Don't know what's going on, but passing/ball control has regressed from ALL the backrow players...now it's typical Texas Vball, throw it up to the left pin and hopefully she can terminate....

[SATXHorn 90]

Was at ACL yesterday. (Guess we made the right choice between that and Dallas. Ugh.) Could barely get cell reception for volleyball updates. I hope today is not as stressful.

Yesterday was a crappy sports day that was 2 points away from being an unmitigated disaster.
