After that disastrous performance this morning, I'm back at the Devaney Center to see a very good No. 4 Nebraska (6-0) team face off against Long Beach State (3-3) and former assistant Tyler Hildebrand for the second straight season.
The Huskers are coming off a huge in-state win over No. 16 Creighton on Wednesday. With the Bluejays without All-American outside hitter Norah Sis, Nebraska shot out to a quick 2-0 lead in the match. Creighton fought back to take a set in the third, but NU closed it down in the fourth to move to 22-0 all-time against their in-state rival. Here's that recap from Wednesday:

And here's your preview of this Long Beach State team who has quite a setter in redshirt sophomore Zayna Meyer. The Beach knocked off previous No. 1 Texas earlier this season, so this team can play at a high level.
