And it wasn’t close. Last two sets were 25-12 and 25-13. Amazing how much of a gap there is between Pitt and Nebraska and everyone else.

I didn’t know they had games on NBC. Funny their volleyball team got swept there while their big white out is relegated to Peacock.

Yeah, this match was a beat down. PSU with 22 attack errors. Wisc with 3. PSU with 0 blocks Wisc with 11.
Wow…..sure didn’t see that coming…..with Nebraska’s sweep of Wisconsin it helps Nebraska continue to chip away at Pitt’s #1 ranking.
 
Hopefully, this moves Louisville up to #3 in the seeding committee rankings so we aren’t in the same bracket as them.
Except that if Nebraska wins out they will almost certainly be the #1 overall seed. Committee has already tipped their hand on this.

Yea I’ve pretty much resigned us to getting the #2 seed at this point. Nebraska doesn’t look like they’re gonna lose again and if that’s the case their metrics beat ours and they’ll get the 1. Ideally Louisville will lose one more (to us hopefully) and either Penn state or Creighton can pass them for the #3 seed

Fast offense is a problem for PSU. Middles don't close well and there are times when PSU has looked helpless against the opposing blockers. Getting forced into attacks that aren't nearly as aggressive or they have to try to go hard cross court or down the line which ended up being errors.
