Penn State sweeps Stanford. Cardinal really needed Ijanaku but she is out this season. Lutz hit negative. Burgess hit negative. Penn State can pass.
PSU’s middles ( the one tara hittle coached in particular) are deadly on the slide.
I was hoping their setting would struggle without micha hancock but not to be.
Some comments on today’s results:
1. Oregon was up 2-0 on Nebraska and proceeded to lose the next three. A big missed opportunity for the Ducks.
2. Kentucky loses twice today (both 3-0 sweeps) and will play Illinois and Wichita State next weekend. Likely overrated.
3. North Carolina has now lost to USC, BYU, Wisconsin and Minnesota. A good slate of opponents but you have to actually beat the good teams to be considered a good team. I don’t think UNC should be ranked on Monday, but the pollsters love Power 5 teams.
4. Big West is currently 26-24 with four matches to play tonight. At least the conference has a positive winning record.
3. feeling was that UNC overrated after the first weekend. but they weren’t going to drop them from 7 to out of the poll. at 1-4 think they’re out next week.
Iowa leading UCLA first set.
UCLA wins 25-20. was 24-17. Iowa had a number of unforced errors, even let UCLA libero free ball it over for a kill.
6 Thanks. Stats on UH website kinda messed up.
Bruins win 25-16
6. yes they are.
mostly iowa injuring self. not really a lot of kills for ucla.
I feel that Texas is overrated…easy opening weekend, split two tough matches this weekend, probably won’t be challenged too much in conference play…we’ll see, though…
as expected ucla dominates iowa
no cackalacky is a weakling when it comes to vb. thats no surprise.
Looks like UCLA is going to give Wahine a tough time.
Bruins are under rated.
As suspected Iowa isn’t very good and UH just made way too many errors and played bad to keep it close.
Watching LMU the team that swept UCLA down 1-2 to Northern Arizona and they do not look good.
bruins hit .305. UCLA dominated.
so wahine need to sweep out american tonight to show some parry with ucla tomorrow.
UCLA wins 25-13. Two really bad calls swung Game 3 early. Iowa hit off the UCLA block it bounced out of bounds. linesman called no touch when it clearly went in the other directors. Keala called for a net violation when she was close to the 3-meter line. It wouldn’t have changed the outcome but it might have kept Set 3 closer earlier.
Pretty ugly match all the way around. Set 1 Iowa hit 026, UCLA 103.
Wichita St not that good either, apparently, looking at results posted by someone earlier.
