3-9, 0 boards, 0 blocks, 3 fouls. It was truly one of the performances of all time.

I honestly don't believe Crowl even likes playing basketball, watching him play. I have never seen a softer, less intense big man. My Lord does that guy **** suck.

Comparing again to the team 2 years ago - it's very possible that we've got a bubble caliber team all along that won some games that looked amazing early - but once you reviewed the opponent later (USC/Dayton 2 years ago, Arizona/Pitt this year), it turns out they didn't beat great teams.

I love Sarah Franklin post-match interviews.

GG and Lola were great last night. Really want to see Nebraska eat sht in front of the home crowd.

I will definitely take back to back career games from Winter - like what I see. Needed this bounce back, no matter who the opponent was.

Good to see Crowl show up after being called out by coach! Hope this isn't a flash in the pan! Winter making huge steps . very good win against a very tough team!

Every win is a good win but this Butler team may not make the tournament.

24-24 and serve it long. Damn

Yeah that service error was brutal for momentum. Nebraska is absolutely locked in now.

Nebraska defense is impressive. Badgers not doing themselves many favors. Seems the block is often a step slow and the back row isn't consistently in position.

Woof.

Nebraska is just better this year.

I've only been able to watch Badger volleyball a few times in the last couple years. I have been unimpressed with the passing and defense in general out of the backrow during each game. It leads to a whole lot of scrambling and errors

MikeIsGood · Post #1639 » by **MikeIsGood** » Sun Dec 15, 2024 10:36 pm

Woof indeed. The first set was a lot of fun, but it went downhill quickly thereafter.

Nebraska's defense is pretty incredible. She gets talked about a lot (and has been there **** forever), but Lexi really is pretty remarkable to watch flying around. I'm excited for Lola - service errors aside - and we've missed a real libero/DS since Lauren Barnes graduated, but Lexi is next level and really brings their whole defense together.

We've got to find some new OH and MBs now. Franklin, Smrek, Orzol, Robinson, CC is a lot of loss up front. Egan was a great add and I know there's a good OH in our freshman class, but some more transfers would help.

Dont follow too close, but kinda crazy were deservedly the #2 team and cant even touch Nebraska this year
