Backing the SEC is all about money. ESPN thinks more viewers will watch them vs. any other conference? And if so, they can charge their advertisers more.

That Penn St match was an anomaly. PSU played flawlessly that day. UofL was a step behind all match and could never get into synch. Ot worried about that previous matchup.

Babcock is on another level. We should see her in the next Olympics.

Saw all teams in person. I wouldn’t trade DeBeer for anyone, but there was no one close to Babcock. She messed up a little, but so did the rest of Pitt in the 4th.

NASCAR screwed with a good thing, changed it back, and still haven’t regained all the fans. And never will. People find other outlets when the lose interest.

I’m sure the traditional “biggies” will continue to draw and get prime TV slots, but I can see it being a 30-40 (maybe less) league. And they will have to figure out “salary” caps, maybe even “drafts”, and CONTRACTS that will insure players STAY and PLAY.

I see others either dropping sports, or ….. sign STUDENT athletes who want an education. Period.

Lot of kids will lose opportunities as….the rich get richer.

I agree Coach DBK out coached the Pitt coach and our players executed really well. I also think we have improved a lot since the season began. I remember earlier in the season and even mid season we were running into each other. Remember we just knocked off the #1 team in the country in 4 sets. The last set was in dominant fashion.

I watched the PSU vs Nebraska match last night and the thing that stood out to me was that PSU had very few blocks at the net.

Most of the Nebraska fans around courtside last night were up cheering for us over Pitt; obviously thinking Pitt was the favorite. The constant adjustments that Dani made in the 3rd set were truly the difference in the momentum switch to UL. No doubt the player's execution was absolutely central to the win, but Dani outcoached Dan Fisher and you could see his frustration in that 3rd set with his team's confusion with spacing.

Our early season loss at PSU was 3-0 and all 3 sets were in dominating fashion. I said then, they were the best WVB Team I had seen since Texas last season. We have improved significantly since that time, and I am not sure PSU is quite as good now as they were at that time.

Great to see the depth we have on this roster; Transfers are welcome as well, but I saw a lot of talent with the freshmen performance.

This NIL/Transfer Portal is so broken that I a think it’s likely that some schools will begin thinking about opting-out of any Bowl game in the years to come, particularly if the finances are upside down and the players refuse to participate.

Already happening … Marshall opted out of their bowl game against Army for exactly this reason.

Of course, rosters will be expanding to 105 players here in 2025, so that will partially address the issue of not being able to field a full complement of players once you subtract the portal defections.
