Probable lift on us earlier in rally. Had right to be mad. Understandable with what is on the line


Once they let their OH carry the hell out of it early in third set, it was obvious they weren't gonna call a carry/lift on anyone unless it was overtly egregious.
That two-handed catch and push by their OH might be the worst I've ever seen.

Emotions are part of the game, we're fans and we react or overreact because we care! Don't you dare derail this thread after a historic win like you all did the last one after TCU… tonight we party

Yeah, just watched it back. Could have easily been called a lift. Their entire fan section was calling for it.

On Lednicky?

Whatever... Chicoine basically grabbed a ball and shoved it through our block earlier in the game.


That was the worst missed call of match. Right in front of ref and Chicoine ws even looking up expecting the call.

that was 400+ pts scored in that match but some USAV dad's have to bad mouth players throughout the match. There is a reason Jaime is A&Ms coach. to you who moan and complain, just stay on the porch and let him and his assistants do their jobs, WE WON THE F'N MATCH and play Sunday. Jeez.


Oh man, what a great post. We just made the Elite Eight with the worst OH and libero in the country according to some on here.

And it was literally right in front of the up judge. She even looked at her expecting to get the call. Crazy

Why is there zero info on possible game times Sunday?

I think they already used their reverse sweep mojo against South Carolina. Best just not to put yourself in that position again.

Call me crazy but I actually want Nebraska to annihilate Kansas. Let them walk into Sunday's match without getting punched in the mouth for a long long time. They''ve lost one set since the start of conference play

I'll need to re-watch the last couple sets but somehow it seemed our defense stepped up. I don't recall as much hand-wringing. Hopefully they bring it on Sunday.

I also thought Hellmuth remained strong throughout the game even through adversity. She swung hard through out.

As disappointed as I was after the first two sets, I am equally as proud of how this team fought back to get the reverse sweep!

Congratulations Ladies and good luck on Sunday!

Feeding Logan hard late match took a ton of pressure off Helmuth. She responded well to her opportunities...which is great. I thought the tu match might've broke her.

Hellmuth deserves her flowers, she played well tonight! Way for her to bounce back mentally after last match! Huge props to her!

Someone mentioned it earlier but another shout to Fitch, she came in with a strong serve in set 5 of a sweet sixteen match and also had the game winning assist to Stowers!

Or maybe the volleyball team watched the football team you know a few weeks ago…a game against the chickens…?

Agreed..I think Jaime needs to commit to Fitch serving and playing backline for Emily. Although I'm not counting subs so that might limit him elsewhere.

I missed the seeding. Why are we a 3 seed in the same region as the #1 team in the country? We should have been a 2 seed.

Strongest 1 gets weakest 2 which gets strongest 3 and weakest 4th. Thats how tournament seeding works theoretically, right?

Absolute truth. She was very good tonight. Great bounce back.

Speaking of bouncing back . . . REVERSE SWEEP to get to the Elite Eight ! Jamie has got to be so proud of this group. Amazing GRIT

Congratulations, ladies and coaches, on an epically wonderful victory!
You make Aggies everywhere VERY happy and equally proud of you.

Any of these girls are who every parent wants a son to bring home.

It's GREAT to be in the Elite 8!!!

I got a feeling that Underwood from last years Wisconsin match will show up Sunday! We have nothing to lose, and that's when this team plays their best.

Do it. How I felt about going to college World Series with the Ags. Different time but you never know when your team is going to get back.

Sorry if this has already been answered. Does anybody know if Hullabaloo and the Aggie Dance Team made the trip to Lincoln? I noticed Louisville had their band and cheer leaders.

Nebraska's Rebekah Allick in the post game interview on playing A&M…

I'm so freaking excited, it's different always playing teams not of your caliber, but we flourish playing great teams. I love Jamie Morrison and I'm a big fan of Ifenna. (Paraphrasing)

Lots of mutual respect. In 2021 Jamie coached the U21 team that has 4 current Nebraska players on it: Harper Murray, Laney Choboy, Rebekah Allick, and Bergen Reilly. As well as Chicoine who we just beat.

watch the postgame interview if you haven't. Not sure I've seen a more lively one. Girls giggling, everyone coughing and chugging water for some reason. LOL

You can tell this team loves each other and their coaches.
