And people like you are comparing the ladies to the woe's of the Football program. The ladies are true badasses and this team is an uber juggernaut. I'm laughing at this post bigtime! Keep on with your're moronic hot take. 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣
Husker VB is Louisville bound! On to final 4!!!
- Thread starter HBK4life
- Start date
We are most definitely a volleyball school now. In fact football may be behind mens BB, womens BB, mens wrestling, baseball, softball, and probably a number of other lower tier sports. Crazy times we are in. Thank god for our VB team.
Will be interesting to see how this plays out. If we get beat you're going to catch hell lol.
I'm that confident in what I said, I'll take it if we get beaten which I highly doubt we will.
Where did I compare the ladies to the football program? And the next time you’d like to try to insult someone try to use proper words.
And if it goes to 5 sets and could go either way? Bravado is a fool's play when you get to a final 4... nobody gets to the final 4 and suck.
Edited to add... if we don't 'bitchslap' them like you predict will you take a break from starting posts with random links to stories nobody seems to care about?
If we do bitchslap them like I predicted, then I'm gonna throw hell stright back in peoples faces. Fact!
And if we don't bitchslap them?
OH and what is your criteria for a bitchslap? Don't get me wrong, I would love to see us sweep them 25-15 each set. But if you are so confident, throw out your prediction. And if they don't meet that benchmark, what are you going to throw back in people's faces?
Hope you are more right about this than Butler coaching the dbacks. You were completely wrong on that one.
Wouldn't be the 1st time a DONU DC did double duty and kinda surpised me Butler didn't.
Sweep which I've said before in a few different posts. Here's the thing, had Wiscy been in their bracket we wouldn't even be talking about us vs Penn St as Wiscy woulda bounced their asses right out of the tourney in the same humiliting fashion they did during the regular season sweeping them.

You may be right with the sweep or we may win in 4 .we will win My only issue with your posts is saying PSU is not good. That’s ridiculous they were 19-1 in the Big Ten .
Exactly, so the criteria is a sweep, whether that is 25-12, 25-17, 25-15.... or 28-26, 25-23, 25-22... those two scenarios are not the same. A sweep is not an automatic bitchslap. The later is a tightly contested match that just happened to go the right way for one team. And the premise that PSU is not good is laughable... even if the first scenario occurs you can't state that PSU isn't good. The more he speaks the more foolish he looks.
Screw the ranking as us and Wisconsin are the 2 best teams in this conference perod. I don't know why they had as many brain farts as they did this year. The elite level of play on both sides that was displayed on Sunday in our match, Penn St can't match it and has no prayer against our A game. The match in Happy Valley, we left our A game back in Lincoln and shit all over ourselves with too many uncharateristic turnovers, service errors, hitting errors, you name it. Penn St is gonna get what they watched us do to an actual elte team in Wiscnsin which Penn St is not. Our match saw what 2 true elite teams look like, that 2nd match looked like amateurs playing compared to ours.
Here’s the thing. This is so easy to say… Wisconsin woulda bounced them. We will never know, because the tourney game never happened.
If you want to say Wisconsin beat them this year I could counter with Penn State beat Nebraska this year.
The fact is, we will never know what MAY have happened in a tourney matchup this year between Penn state and Wisconsin because it never actually happened.
Maybe Penn State left their A game in Happy Valley when they played Wisconsin…
I think we are the better team, but the better team doesn’t always win.
The mentality of this team is lights out and the attitude they're winning the whole thing. They have now taken things to whole other level which is lethality. Penn State is lethargically slow on the court compared to us and Wisconsin and speed kills. We are by far the better team and people are giving them waaay more credit than is due. There isn't a team out there this year that has more top 10 wins than we do and except for 2 we've swept all of them Stanford, Louisville, Oregon, Wisconsin on their own court but there was a number that were top 10 when we played them which still counts even though they are no longer in the top 10 and the tally with repeats is something like 10.

I 100% agree if we bring our A game no one can beat us.
Unfortunately, a few times this year, we didn’t. I just hope we keep it up through the end.
The position we're in now, those letdowns won't happen and is A game all the way. We have the fewest tourney set losses of the 4 of us left and only have 1 which we shouldn't have. The ladies got a reality check vs Dayton and Cook was pissed all match and saw it on is face and his body language either while he was sitting or stalking the sildline. We played like hot garbage in those 1st 3 sets even though we won the 1st 2, and after we lost the 3rd which was the last straw as Cook ripped into them and they took a good hard look at themselves. The 4th set however Dayton saw our A game as we humilited and destroyed them mercilously and that was the ladies way of telling them, you're going no futher and going home like it or not. It's like a light switch got turned on. Techncally we shouldn't even have a set loss in the tournamnet. Pitt has 2, Penn St has 3 and Louisville has 4. What's funny is, our side of the bracket is tougher than Pitt's side.
This little piece of Kelly Sheffields conference and this is what sets us apart from the other 3.
"It was just an unbelievable defensive team,” Wisconsin coach Kelly Sheffield said. “Some of the defensive plays they were making, no one in the country is making in the back court.”

Harper is playing insanely good and making great hustle plays!
Lexi is selling out for every dig!
Landfair is coming on at the right time.
Bergen took one in the face and kept ticking.
Andi is making violent kills
Merritt (love her) has kinda faded in the tournament. Hoping she finds that #1 draft pick juice vs PSU

You are incorrect, you must have missed @nostromo78 ’s post. He said that PSU demolished us earlier this season. The scores in that match at Penn St. were, 25-21, 14-25, 25-22, & 25-23. Personally I think PSU got lucky, they had home court advantage and caught us on an off night. The only demolishing was that second set when our girls brought their ‘A’ game, but sets 1, 3, & 4 PSU had to fight tooth and nail to beat us in those sets. Keep in mind that was us not at our best.
I’m referring to Bonerz comments not Nostromo… he is stating the a sweep is a bitchslap. Not every sweep is equal. Not sure how what you wrote relates to my point.
I've loved Beason's consistent and reliable play during the regular season. I haven't focused on how she's being played in the tourney. Is she drawing a lot of double teams? It seemed she was a little quiet in last year's tourney as well compared to the regular season.
Maybe Beason just needs to channel her beast-mode like Murray has done. Anyway... good grief we have a lot of weapons and a ferocious defense!
