Snatched defeat from the jaws of victory.
-Beason went missing the last few games of the year. Curious.
-Our freshman libero had at least 4 critical mistakes that I counted, 1 of which was taking a ball from Lexi.
-Too many soft tips over the net-Smash the damn ball.
-couple of sets by Lexi that were too close to the net.
-our block only showed up in set 2.
Oh well, fun watching the girls this year. Wish they could have finished it off.

They let off the gas.
Maybe your fat ass should have supplied some!
Your argument is harder to make because Penn State was never up 22-16 about to beat Nebraska 3-1. Nebraska had the advantage of having far less plays left to make to win the match and they shut down. They kept it close but it stopped feeling close in the 5th set.
Watch any sport, whenever a team gives up that kind of massive lead, it’s a total let down every time. You ever watch Nebraska vs Iowa football, TFrazier? Who’s at fault?
I understand this team is miles ahead of football but in this game they folded when it was in the bag. They still had a great season and we would all kill just for a Nebraska football season ending in the playoffs.

Nebraska wasn’t up 22-16 either in the 3rd. They were up 22-16 in the 4th, however…
Good catch, was relying on another poster who said it. Should’ve had it in the 4th.
You’re such an idiot, they aren’t in our league. I told you don’t underestimate them
I would imagine Murray will be getting a lot of hateful social media posts after last night's painful loss. It's well documented she has struggled mental health wise this past year in dealing with comments from last year's title game loss and her personal missteps. I hope for her sake she stays off Tik Tok and other social media for a time.
This year was suppose to be Finished Business after last season loss in the national championship game..
Unfortunately they didn’t use the motto like the 1994 football team.

We (and almost every other team ) wins when we have a dominant hitter. Someone who can take over the game. Who is that?
Thats a cheap shot
Their big 2, one of whom left here, took huge swings every chance they got. Ours hit roll shots that were easily defended.
Just a brutal, brutal loss. They had a good season but really a bad ending. That's two years in a row. Quite frankly, it's the last 7 years of not closing things out. The floor is a lot higher, but there seems to be something systemic just like football, there's enough years of evidence now.
Agree with all the above
People wanna explain how we lost up 2-0?
Pretty simple - Penn St. stopped the 'soft tip' per coach's instructions. Third set is where the agressive approach began to pay off for them - they just swang away.
I also observed Mendleson never saw the court I think after the first or second set. Jordan Hopp was inserted and performed much better in the middle.
We played pretty timid at the point of attack except for Andi.
Great adjustments by Penn St.
Disappointing loss
Fun season nonetheless.
I would love to start being disappointed when Nebraska football starts losing in the college football playoff semifinals... Shoot, I can't wait to be disappointed after only winning 9 games in a season.
Yahhhh probably but I think many were thinking it. I realize she was a freshman and said it in the heat of the moment. I'm assuming she didn't come anywhere near saying that this time.
My question is how many do we try to get in the portal. We need to replace Beason and lexi. We think mauch is the replacement but there's pretty good drop off at this time. I don't see any body currently on this team that's as good as last year's and first part of this year's Beason. Not sure what happened recently but her production tanked.
When you dream, and the dream crashes, it stings ...a lot...
Glad they had the great year....hope there are lessons learned....

No, he's a good coach. Good coaches lose their touch all the time, though. He looked himself in the mirror and changed once already, he probably needs to do some soul searching again and fix the issues holding back the team from winning championships though.
Harper had a GREAT match. She was by far the best Husker on the court last night. The Huskers lost by inch. If Harper's foot wasn't across the line, the match would have ended with a Husker victory.
That’s actually painful to think about… Murray’s kill from the back court that would have effectively put the game out of reach. So close…

@Wasker77
#1 hitter, #3 hitter, #1 setter, local defensive player, and a middle from CA.
You won’t find an equal replacement for Lexi in the portal. They going to roll with Mauch or Choboy.
Beason, is it my thinking or has her production dropping been since she was drafted #1?
Definitely since the draft maybe tad prior but that's what we've (my buds and family) been discussing for a few days
Agreed on lexi portal. We've got the gal (name escapes me right now) from norris? so We've got the 3 littles. 1 or 2 would probably leave if we brought someone in.
We're listed as having 6 seniors and bringing in 5. But Landfair has 1 more year so we'll at net 0. Someone would have to go if we turn to the portal for help. Depends on what's available I guessHusker Volleyball Signs Five for 2025

And we have OH Skyler Pierce on the bench already. She was a top 5 recruit I believe.Husker Volleyball Signs Five for 2025

Boesiger. She hadn’t seen much game action yet. Choboy is very good defense like Lexi is . Obviously not same level but still dang good. I need to look at the post of recruits coming in.
I hope not, but if you no since players get paid it has opened it up. I wouldn’t do it to anyone cause sports are hard at a high level. But when players take nil it opens them up more to criticism.
Just got back from Louisville. Was swarmed with Husker fans. Once again Husker Nation just blows people away with their travel. Sucks the 4th went the way it did. Something weird happened in the 3rd and it was like the life went out of the building. It was rocking in the first two sets.
What also sucks is the start time. The NCAA continues to screw things up. We didn't get back to the hotel until like almost 130 and it was only like a 30 minute walk. That was ridiculous.
Overall great time and sucks we pissed it away.

We really did just piss the national title away. Would have been an easy win today.
