The Nebraska Volleyball team rose up to No. 4 in the latest AVCA coaches' poll that was released Monday afternoon. The Huskers are coming off a 3-0 weekend after hosting the Ameritas Players Challenge when they swept Utah State, Lipscomb and SMU in three consecutive days. The Huskers move up one spot as they were tied for No. 5 with Pittsburgh in the preseason poll. The Panthers lost their season opener 3-1 to BYU so they dropped down to No. 10.
Former No. 1 team Texas dropped a contest to Long Beach State. As a result, the Longhorns come in at No. 7. Now, three of the top five teams in the country reside in the Big Ten conference. All bolded teams are Husker opponents this season. Also, I hope the only one voting for Texas to be No. 1 is their own head coach. Otherwise, don't know why someone voted for them.
1. Wisconsin (50)
2. Stanford (11)
3. Louisville (2)
4. Nebraska
5. Minnesota
6. Oregon
7. Texas (1)
8. Florida
9. BYU
10. Pittsburgh
11. Georgia Tech
12. Ohio State
13. Houston
14. Penn State
15. Kentucky
16. Baylor
17. Washington State
18. Rice
19. Marquette
20. Creighton
21. Arkansas
22. Western Kentucky
23. Kansas
24. Tennessee
25. Purdue
