Remember, at the start of the season, how people said NEB could be the scariest team in the country, if only they could put all their elite pieces together? This match they finally did it.
Let's just hope they can keep this play up on Thurs and then on Sat
GBR!!!!
also kubik’s game has improved TREMENDOUSLY throughout the season
@@angrywalrus8556 for sure she has played some good ball she has to be on her game thurs in order for them to win
no i don’t remember anybody saying that
It's really about the 3 freshmen who simply improved a great deal over the course of their first season playing collegiate v-ball. It was actually smart of Coach Cook to give them lots of playing time during the regular season, even when so many Lexi Sun fans wanted to see HER starting every game.
nebraska serve/receive was just far superior. everything else fell in place for the huskers, what a great win for them and the THREE FRESHMAN; lexi rodriguez, ally batenhorst, and lindsay krause… triple headed monster for the next 3 years.
Don't forget they also have the number 1 overall recruit from that same class waiting in the wings to set in Kennedi Orr.
they also are having 2 big MB coming in for next season!
@@Boojkill unless Hames decides to stay for one more year. But I do like Orr. I remember watching her play at Eagan.. I was rooting against her when she played Champlain. I'm glad she chose Nebraska. Lol
@@jld7732 who
@@michellevenegas4031 Maggie Mendelson 6’5 who is going to play volleyball and basketball and Bekka Allick 6’3. Both of them have played for the team USA,
I remember watching this live and I could not stay in my seat this game was so good and exciting to watch
Can we appreciate how good Lexi Rodriguez is to win Big 10 Defensive Player of the Year behind other amazing liberos like CC McGraw and Lauren Barnes
Dam strait
And Jena Otec, last season’s B10 defensive player of the year.😐
can we acknowledge that barnes is better than her tho
she was honestly ROBBED. she is a amazing libero but not better than barnes. even tho she was 1st team AA , it should’ve been barnes.
Hector Hernandez Barnes is better then her right now. Lexi is only a freshman age Barnes was a 5th year. Only growth from here
@@hectoroyhernandez agreed! (Even tho I’m really late lol)
If Nebraska can play like this in Columbus Ohio I feel like they can win the title! They're definitely peeking at the right time and it showed against a good Texas team! GBR!!!
Honestly so glad Nebraska won this game. After reading Texas' tweet shading Lexi Sun, it really just rubbed me the wrong way and shows their lack of etiquette and sportsmanship. Clearly, Karma is a B****.
wait what did the tweet say
@@maddieboyd483 it was when texas beat them last yr and they said all sky no sun shading Lexi sun for what
@@maddieboyd483 the tweet said “all sky no sun” shading lexi sun of nebraska
Torres is way better than Gabrial in my opinion. She came in and texas started to hit a lot better.
It wasn't the setting though, the passing was horrible.
@@bryansales1801 indeed, but the passing didn't improve when Torres came in and they played better. Gabriel was frustrated by the passing while Torres just made the best of what she got.
@@Eldon_is_The_Best true, I just felt bad for Gabriel as she's usually very good even with out of system passes.
@@bryansales1801 she's a great setter, for sure, 2 time setter of the year! I just think she got frustrated and mistook the sub as a slight on her performance.
1:38:39 she wasn't playing bad; just needed a break and a mix up to refresh.
@@Eldon_is_The_Best that conversation with the coach didn't seem like one she wanted to have at that point in the game though.
This Nebraska team is giving me Stanford 2016 team vibes. They’re gonna be dangerous.
agree!!!
Oh hell yah
I just want to aknowledge the incredible impact this Nebraska freshman class has in this match. Last year when they met in this exact same scenario, nothing was going Nebraska's way. Their backrow defense wasn't fully there, the front row defense was no where to be found with Stivrins injured, Sun and Kubik's blocking was lacking for most of the time and the offense wasn't raw at all.
Now you have one of the best Nebraska's back row defense since i dont know what year with Rodriguez running it, Knuckles, Akana and Hames there to contribute. Now, you have a completely healthy Stivrins to go from pin to pin to get some block touches. Kubik being the target in the serve receive game and rocking it for the most part of the match. And now add to all of that, the power and fearless of two incredible freshman Ally and Lindsay. And dont get me started with the confidence they have in their serve game.
What a moment for this team to peak for real. Maybe they lose in the semifinals maybe they don't but the experience and the confidence this freshman class is going to get from this tournament, is whats going to make them be VERY dangerous in the next 3 or 4 years.
I agree 100% I’d just like to add that Caffey has been incredible this game and season as well.
Why is everyone sleeping on caffey? she's so likable, gets the team going and has been one of the most consistent players for Nebraska
@@ajollypanda4175 I still think Hames can set Caffey better, but even though she doesn't set her all that well, Caffey always manages to better the ball. She's awesome!
@@bryansales1801 u got that right her court vision is ridiculous and man she almost jumps out of her shoes her hops r insane!!!!
It’s the absolute contrasting demeanor for me. Nebraska looks like they actually enjoy the sport and appreciate their teammates regardless if they’re winning or losing. While Texas looks condescending when their doing good and absolutely miserable when they’re struggling.
Lets not be one-track minded...this is sport; there is not one personality or approach that is better than the other....this is the literal same texas team (minus the former libero) that ate nebraska up just earlier this year, now the roles are reversed and Nebraska ate texas up. Different teams have different attitudes.
I couldn't agree more
@@ajollypanda4175 thank you. Like why are we controlling the way women react in sports? I doubt this would be said about men’s volleyball. Get a life
@@funmiby stop bringing sex into everything, Volleyballis a sport about discipline and attitude, Nebraska always high fives and cheers and the UT setter like literally yelled at the coach when she was taken out… as an ut fan that is embarrassing, it’s always said about men sports too, you clearly don’t understand volleyball…
@@graciespikesvolleyball3579 That was Jhenna Gabriel not Sage (UT setter)
Rewatching this game Nebraska took Washington’s exact formula tweaked it a little and took Texas to the limit! They didn’t fold under pressure like Washington & hit all Texas weak points! They sat & watched that game & planned on what they were going to do! That’s the difference between Coaches! Texas didn’t make the same adjustment as they did with Washington! This is payback I guess from Texas sending them home in the Quarterfinals last year! Good Job ladies on both sides!
Texas seemed to play with a lot of pressure on them…NEB was smiling and having fun the whole match. Tx played tight while NEB swung freely. Crowd was dope! Great games
I absolutely agree
i agree they were supposed to win this match and this big moment rattled some of the players
As a Hawaii fan, its so awesome to see Hawaii girls on both sides contributing big time! Great game!
Akana is something else and so humble that back row of lexi kenzi a akana were amazing
But Butler is a all American sry but I would say she's good but that's it
Nebraska plays with joy, it’s as simple as that.
I’m watching this religiously
NEB had a great serving strategy aiming for the seam between 1 and 6. Plus, their freshmen showed up and out this game. Congrats to them!
Texas setter change was their best call; the energy was way better with Saige on the court. Bigger block, better choices in broken plays, and she spread the ball a lot more! I don't mind Jhenna coming back at the end of the set but I think they should've at least started Saige in the 4th to get that energy going again.
Set 3 was what I expected this match to be. High level, back and forth volleyball, it was anybody's game at that pace. I do wish Texas was more gracious in their loss. They didn't wave or show any respect to Nebraska in the end. I understand the rivalry and disappointment but I also believe in sportsmanship and humility especially when the game is over.
Good season Horns and good luck Huskers!
I didn’t see why they put Gabriel back in when things really started changing for the better with Saige on the court. As for the rivalry, the Texas and Nebraska girls all seem very friendly with eachother on social media and comment on each others posts. This was just friendly competition.
Lexi Rodriguez is just so good!
Now she’s a first team all American😌
Nebraska had to play in the toughest conference this year which set them up to win. Texas plays in one of the weaker conferences where they can easily win in most of their matches which leads them to think they’re superior. Glad Nebraska gave them a taste of reality and revenge form last spring. GBR!
EXACTLY!!!!!!!!!!!!
I will love Texas to the day I die but this match was freaking amazing Nebraska played phenomenal hats off to all the freshmen playing amazingly this year
I think I’ve rewatched this over 20 times
Why would they put Gabriel back in on third set when Torres was doing SO GOOD and they looked so much better with her on the court. The ball got moved around so much more and she got so many block touches
they came to PLAY y’all, our defense was off the roof, hopefully they play like this on thursday!!!
I love how even though the Texas crowd is booing them, Nebraska continues to play like bosses and ignore them. Go Nebraska 🤗
Eggleston had SO MANY carries that went uncalled. Glad they finally called her on it.
So glad! The announcers hated it and so did everyone else in America. Karma sucks don't it! I'm a Kentucky fan but cheering for the Huskers to win it all!
Not all of them are carries...but some were ridiculous...I've seen plummer do it alot and it doesnt look like how logan does it
No
Eggleston was definitely trying to get the other team riled up by pushing the limit more and more to see what she can get away with. Getting called at that moment was karma at its finest. Those arrogant Texas players deserve it.
@@ryunamekazi6443 I agree completely. Keep doing it you are bound to get called for it. Texas fans are as bad as Pats fans. Arrogant because they know they can't get by with cheating forever.
Confidence and ego are 2 different things. Full of confidence will lead u to achieve all these impossible things, while full of ego is a completely opposite way. This Nebraska team, whether it's against no.2 seed or out of ranking teams, they're playing for the team, for each other with confidence. Whether it's a good or bad game, they maintain the same attitude, enjoy the game & respect for the opposite team. It's hard not to stand such a team!
Key word.... team.
Nebraska was, Texas wasn’t.
Confidence vs ego
Lexy Rodriguez is olympics bound
Hell yeah
I can't "Thank You!" enough for posting this NCAA Women's College Volleyball game, as last night I had things to do and couldn't watch the game and was just so hoping that you had the time to post! … What an awesome game to watch!
Texas hasn’t had this kind of adversity consistently this entire season like Nebraska has. They haven’t had to face passers of this level very much. Especially with the conference that they’re in. It would help to get some better back row defense. You gotta have a star setter & libero to get that good chemistry with your phenomenal hitters, which they already have.
The problem with Texas is their attitude and spirit. They do not seem to ENJOY playing and that is a coaching problem.
@@Coopsterish Yes, I also agree but didn’t know how to explain it
@@Coopsterish No, the problem with Texas is what Olivia said...she detailed it perfectly.
Nebraska didn't even pass well. It's just that Texas was catastrophic in their own passing.
@@bigbuffguy9589 exactly. These were two elite programs shooting rockets at each other and Nebraska held up longer.
Even though I know the outcome, watching NU beat Texas (again and again and again) and listening to Paul what’s his face freak out just never gets old.
ummmmm, Nebraska Lost to Texas in last year‘s tournament and Paul Sunderland never freaked out about either team winning or losing.
I’m so tired of watching Logan throw the ball.
Thought she could get away with it until they finally called her out for it.
I find watching NCAA volleyball is more entertaining than watching NBA these days.
Finally! Nebraska recruits very well every year and should be playing like this all the time.
I've watched this match several times I am so impressed by Krause man she is a star now but over the next 3 seasons in my opinion she will be a SUPERSTAR and win a few POY
Texas has absolutely no decorum. The stare down at stivs and then fields stepping on hames but when hames went to make sure she was fine just turned her back. No sportsmanship whatsoever.
AJolly Panda might respond to this comment and say that volleyball fans are soft lol.
Good job to both teams. Texas is a monster at the net, just needed more efficiency in the back. Gabriel arguing with her coach was what was different between Nebraska and Texas in terms of attitude for me.
@@DoctorTracyEM texas is has no class
@@DoctorTracyEM lol..
I'd say the were expecting to win so much that any other result wasn't an option. Going 27-1 is pretty insane. If you asked me at the beginning of the tournament who would win between Texas and Nebraska, I would have hated my answer. Lol
yeah this Texas team acts pretty cocky. Maybe because they’re supposed to be the favorites to win a NC, but its sort of hard to root for them when they’re attitudes are like this
Was rooting for Texas but the passing/defense was hard to watch... congratulations Nebraska for a great game and win
Yeah I think they need to find another defensive transfer similar to O’Brien from last season that was able up the passing for Texas.
@@samcurnoww4782 yeaaa fingers crossed, Fleck or Hampton would be a game changer
@@sparkleflower910 They just signed Zoe Fleck!!!
@@samcurnoww4782 saw it at work and screamed out loud!!!
Agreed
Torres not only can block but shes a good setter that moves the ball around. Gabriel is just the main setter and that's all. They used Gabriel's height as an advantage. Shes to predictable. When Torres is on the court it's a different game! Good game to both teams very thrilling.
My thought exactly about Torres. She should’ve been running this offense
Exactly!!! Gabriel is too predictable. They should've let Torres set for this game
I was really surprised that they took Torres out! She should have stayed in…
@@fakawat7220 jhenna can’t do defense
what time or what set did Texas pull Gabriel
That Krause kid has POY potential. You see intelligence in her swings. That's a beautiful gym btw
Krause is a beast but so young. She still needs a bit more court awareness, but I remember saying the same thing about Kubik not to long ago. I think Krause has the potential to be even better!
i feel like the minute she gets the left side hitter spot, shes going to shine even more.
IVE BEEN WAITING FOR DAYSSSS THANK YOUUUUU
GBR! ❤
Parra needs to find a team where she's in the front row
🙌🏽
texas didnt lose because of the front row though, they lost because of the back row...where para was...but id like to see para play on another team.
She had to mistake in the back row. Their hitting was not their.
She’s not ready for front row nor is she as a affected hitter in the front row over eggleston and fields. She will get there eventually but what I think jared Elliot is doing is prepping her for backrow first and serving then transitioning her to front row so she can be a 6 rotation player.
Eggleston is over rated. Look what happen vs Washington.
Can’t watch it live in New Zealand. Thanks for posting this so I can watch top quality volleyball! Showing this to my girls who have just started playing
Does anyone else fast-forward 20 seconds bc they take so damn long to serve between points
Coming from a Canadian who has watched the huskers since the Hanna Werth days I LOVE this team they play for each other Stivrins is one of my fav players sad to c her go
Wouldn't it be sweet for her to go out with her 2nd championship!!
Lexi is amazing future Olympian
That we are Texas shit gets really annoying
So basically the announcer at the end was arguing that they should just continue letting Eggleston KEEP cheating? 🧐
Oh, and yeah, Eggleston is cocky and selfish, so good on NU for shoving it down her throat
once a call has been made you have to uphold similar plays to the same standard for the rest of the game. An example of this would be calling a double on a setter. If the ref calls something a double early in the game the ref has to uphold that standard for the rest of the game no matter how picky or lax the call is. This is the basis of fair reffing even if in this case it technically isn't the right call.
@@baylietrout7888 so they are supposed to allow something that's technically illegal based on an initial incorrect split second decision? What's fair about that? Suppose a team wins by making a similar illegal play late in the game but is allowed to win, all based on a split second decision made by mistake earlier in the game. What's fair about that? What if it was your team that lost because of this? Would you be happy about it? Wouldn't it make more sense for the ref to try and do better the very next opportunity rather than let the mistake continue? And keep in mind, I'm sure the player in question most likely knows she is skirting the boundaries. IMO she has no right to be upset if she's finally called on it no matter when it happens. And about the consistency argument, shouldn't being consistent from game to game be more important than within a game? Isn't that what rules are for?Otherwise it all just becomes arbitrary.
@@slartibartfast1268 I mean, whatever coach is encouraging Eggleston to throw the ball is doing her a disservice as it will be called at the next level. Considering how much she relies on that crutch it could really hurt her game. That said, if they didn't call her other 6 or so throws, then it is strange to call in at that point.
@@slartibartfast1268 yes you are right that it was illegal and the ref should have recognized that and overturned the call. However, plays like lifts and double contacts are arbitrary and left to the refs judgement. Since these plays are arbitrary it is difficult to enforce a standard across the board. Which is why it is left to the refs judgement during individual games. Their focus of the game is to set a standard. This standard is the basis for unbiased and non corrupt refereeing.
So, when a ref makes that first initial call they set the standard for similar plays across the board. (Meaning Nebraska could’ve made a similar play if they wanted but chose not too I’m assuming bc they know it’s wrong.) Without this idea it doesn’t set a precedent for refs to hold themselves to and the game becomes arbitrary and potentially unfair. There fore the ref shouldn’t suddenly change his mind the next play. Not only would it cause a bit of a mess since they didn’t call the initial play (bc then it would really be unfair to both sides) It can also lead to the ref being accused of corruption or caving under pressure. Which is why that call on Logan was a big deal bc he was not following the standard he set for the entire game.
Sometime you get crappy refs that set terrible standards and that’s what happened this game. It happens no system is perfect no ref is perfect.
Most of those digs Peterson missed Lexi Rodriguez who have passed for dimes. That’s the difference. A bad ass front row was completely neutralized by a bad performance from their back row. Also Nebraska’s freshmen……speechless
Louisville vs Nebraska
I wouldn't jump the gun, pitt and Wisconsin are very good right now and have been more consistent than Nebraska....but I think nebraska rather play Louisville because Wisconsin has their number right now
@@ajollypanda4175 I think Nebraska’s taking it this year And the only reason is because I feel like Wisconsin without serve Louisville Nebraska will take down. But this time I feel like the past they can beat Wisconsin if they play the way they played against Texas
Nebraska should beat Pitt imo. Pitt’s back row and serve receive isn’t that strong. It’s a toss up for Louisville Wisconsin and Nebraska. Anybody’s game depending on how each team shows up during a given night.
Eggleston was throwing it down illegally all game and finally got called on it
I totally agree but the announcers are correct about the referees needing to call those plays consistently. However Im not on the court and was pretty happy when it was called even though it isn't the right one haha
IT WAS ABOUT TIME! THANK U!!!!
Nebraska’s all around game was too balanced. Torres really went in and did extremely well with moving it around without forcing it too much. I think we could all see the difference.
Molly Philips is so underrated. Like her blocking is AMAZING. She doesn’t get enough credit
This!
50:23 you know Stivrins was getting tired of the "dunked" balls... challenging the ref to call her on hers. lol The stare after too. So good! I love watching Nebraska's celly's.
i was getting so tired of watching logan do those.
Hers was hardly a dunk too that was completely playable
The audacity to then get pissed off when she finally got called on it end of the game??! I agree it is the refs fault for letting it go on for so long though smdh
Stivrins' wasn't even close to a throw though.
Iconic
Texas got out served and out passed completely. Texas needs to find another backrow ASAP and needs to work on their serve receive more. Also wouldn’t be surprised if jhenna is benched next season for the transfer setter. She’s much better
I understand the competitiveness the texas players have for the sport but man their attitudes need to change. Im not a Texas fan what so ever but they’re beating themselves with attitudes like that…. Look at Nebraska and how much fun their having whilst being competitive and playing high level ball…. It’s the little things that can change the factor of games…..
This is the same texas team that beat Nebraska easily last tournament; different teams have different attitudes and we need to leave that alone... I can't think of many other sports that is soft like volleyball...if people (not you)are not complaining about the crowd, they have some other problem.
@@ajollypanda4175 you say this to every comment you don't like? Lol. Texas and their fans are very conceited.
@@ajollypanda4175 as a volleyball player your wrong there’s something off about the texas team when watching they are all playing for themselves not as a team which is very prevalent nebraska is an amazing foil that was able to show the contrast in there team chemistry
Nebraska seems to be close outside of volleyball plus they test each other with care and respect. Very uplifting. All year long they did not waiver from this.
@@ajollypanda4175 This is the same Texas team but not the same Nebraska team.
Texas needs a coach and a setter. They are too predictable, they play same way every match. I watched three matches one day, it seemed like the same matches with different opponents. You can't have as much talent as Texas and play where every scout knows what you do are going to do next.
Talent can only you get you so far. They need a new coach and a taller setter who make better decisions.
i had many mood swings during this game.
Brings tears of happiness to see such good volleyball
48:59 🙄 can’t stand this team
jhenna’s attitude is such a letdown🤦🏽
Ikr she was setting horrible too. And then after that the coach made the wrong decision by putting her back in, which just brought negative energy to the court and that’s what caused them to lose in my opinion.
you should see her reaction in the loss to baylor…
I suppose I didn't expect Texas to pass so poorly. I get that they have no depth in hitting, but don't they have like a dozen DS's on the bench? Woulda coulda, but I'd have yanked Gabriel and had her put the dark jersey on. Torres is a solid setter and Iosia looked lost out there serving lollipops (I thought she was a good server?) in to the net over and over and shanking balls left and right. When the libero is the serving target you are in trouble. Yank Phillips (she can't get kills unless in system, which is basically the only job a Right Side has), move Fields to RS (she can't pass anyway) and promote Parra to P2. Probably still would have lost, but instead Elliot just watched them drown while Eggleston practiced her dunks for basketball tryouts.
Haha nice and so true
Gabriel's attitude was toxic even to me as an observer. Texas played noticeably different and better when she finally got yanked. It was just a glimpse but it looked like she was just blaming and complaining to coach Elliott when he pulled her. Good riddance.
ty ty ty for putting the date in the description
Very much disagree with the commentators that Logan shouldn't be called for a throw late in the game, because she wasn't earlier. Just no. Throws are illegal. They need to be called. The fact that they weren't called earlier doesn't make the later call wrong. It makes the earlier calls wrong. Logan very well knows she's pushing the boundaries here. She shouldn't be rewarded for it. She needs to be told to stop it. It's like being let go for speeding by an officer and then to keep abusing the good grace of that officer by continuing to speed. Some have argued "Well, that's not the same thing. Speeding isn't a judgement call. Throws are." Okay then, if throws are a judgement call, then the refs have every right to call it however and whenever they want -- to use their judgement in applying the rules. Especially if they see a player abusing the rules over and over. And another thing. Suppose that throw was on match point and Texas wins. Should they be allowed to win by an illegal play only because it wasn't called earlier? How blatant would the play have to be then before it should be called, given the earlier judgements? And recognize that the refs only have a split second to make these judgements. They're not going to be perfect at it.
While I agree with most of everything you say, I do agree that in sports, setting the tone early is what every good ref should do. You set yourself up for being called biased or giving the team that gets called out, an excuse or scapegoat.
The officials put themselves in a tough spot when they let it go early in the match, it's so hard to judge what is the tipping point to call it a throw. And of course the players are going to continue doing it until it's called, they're trying to win a huge game. The best thing the officials could've done was tell Nebraska they simply missed the first call, and then tell the same to Texas later when they call it right the second time.
agreed, her coach should’ve definitely warned her about it
Commentators went full-on stupid after the call - agreed; was grating to listen to. Just because she got away with one earlier doesn't mean you don't call the next one, wtf.
@Alice Sylva Wrong! They should have called it earlier, AND they still should have called that last one regardless.
Parra you deserve to play at NEBRASKA not Texas
true... texas is making her as an accessory hahaha
I got home from work and ran immediately downstairs to watch! I braced myself if once I turned it on I’d see them losing! Only to turn it on and see them winning 2-0! Love my Cornhuskers taking down this snobby team!
Nebraska is possible to SERVE all the way to the end. Hope the next team has been practicing serve and receive lol plus Nebraska is not afraid of tough serve given the back row
We need another all round player like Kubik her serve, received, and offense ❤
FINALLY ONGG
thank you so much!!!
I like watching both of these teams play but Texas girls have some of the worst attitudes. Was the stare down necessary? Was the tweet necessary? Not to mention Fields totally ignoring Hames when she was making sure she was okay.. she didn’t even apologize to Hames. So rude!
Djk34💘💝😘🥰 are you single how old you are
These announcers sound like Texas fans.
My two favorite teams up against each other 🤘🏼🌽
Hook em Huskers ! I'm Texas born and raised, but I will not side with the Horns while Logan, Butler, Fields, O'Neil and Gabriel are wearing the burnt orange.
👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 SAY IT LOUDER 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 I only dislike Texas for that reason
May I ask why? I’m pretty curious about why.
And I’ll never side with Nebraska as long as coach Cook is on their sideline!
@@joshuaporter8535 Oh, possibly the best women's volleyball coach of our time? The guy that basically churns out assistant coaches that go on to be exceptional head coaches in their own right. Lol, ok clown.
@@trustthispost ok and can you tel me what’s wrong with Logan, Gabriel, fields, and O’Neil?
at 1:51:38 when lauren and nicklin were completely synchronized i was so scared LMFAO
I love to watch Texas lose. Elliott always gets the best talent- but can't teach them how to pass, play defense, or help them raise their volleyball IQ. this goes all the way back to Destinee Hooker in 2009. In fact, when Lexi Sun transferred to Nebraska from Texas Coach Cook told her I don't even know if you will start because they don't teach defense at Texas...Elliott never gets our premier talent ready for the next level, or even the international level. He is an overpaid Coach, and there's a reason why he has only 1 title instead of 4 or 5.
Texas is literally was the best serving team in the nation. What are you on about? I do find it surprising that the best serving team can't pass to save their season though. As a fan of Texas it literally blew my mind how bad the passing was. The wheels were off from first serve lol. Hook em forever though 🤘
@@slushymatis Jerritt Elliott has always recruited the best, most physically talented athletes in the country- and he is never able to make them into ALL-AROUND volleyball players. Going all the way back to Destinee Hooker in 2009... Even when Lexi Sun transferred to Nebraska Coach Cook told her, I don't even know if you can be a starter because they don't teach defense or passing at Texas, which is true. All the talent in the world cannot beat a team that knows how to play together and how to convert broken plays... I feel bad for Eric Sullivan to have to be an assistant to an overpaid bumbling coach like Elliott... the end.
@@r.jdavos1981 brah what? He doesn't teach a all around game but has countless 6 rotation OHs make first team All American year in and year out without fail. Logan
@@r.jdavos1981 Logan egleston is probably the best example of this development. When she first got to Texas she was a bad defender and a horrible horrible passer. Now she's arguably the best 6 rotation outside hitter in the country without question. She can serve, she can pass, and she can hit. I would agree with you if you said the DS/ libero lack development over the years. And setter probably. But OH, MB ? Na.
@@slushymatis Logan wouldn’t be in a single passing rotation on any pro level team or National team- she’d be a target.. Phenomenal players though- just never going to be like a Logan Tom or Jordan Larson- you know ALL-AROUND players…
Thank you!
Texas may have lost but I must say Butler delivered some really superb blocks
And two years later…Texas wins the championship against them!! And a clean sweep too 🧹
Good grief!!!!! Why don’t you find announcers that aren’t so pro Texas…………….
Absolutely!!
It was so obvious
Call the game fairly and keep your biased opinions to yourself PS
I had heard that from a few Facebook comments and shrugged it off but having finally watched the replay, totally agree.
How were they pro Texas at all?
1:53:07
TEXAS- PLEASE STFU- THATS A FUCKING LIFT EGGLESTON! DONT TRY IT!
FRRRRRRR
Byyyeeeee Texassss
OKAY BUT AKANA PLAYED OUT OF HER MIND 😈
This match will always be iconic
THANK YOU FOR POSTING IT!!!!!!!!!
i have been waiting to watch this!!
I just want Lexi to be happy!
Texas is recruiting a liberal asap. Iosia is a good player, but was out of her league tonight. Peterson had no place on that court.
Texas signed not one, but two Liberos for 2022. All-American Zoe Fleck from UCLA and Emma Halter from Indiana. IDK if Iosia will be benched but it seems Texas finally figured what Nebraska already knew; that the key to a great offense is a great defense.
NU is now the expected leader in the Big Conference,, the best volleyball conference in America, now that Retke et. al. are graduating.
I'd just like to add that Nebraska has waaayyy better facilities as well!
NEBRASKA HUSKERS UNDERSTOOD THE ASSIGNMENT….PERIODT!!!!
Wow what a game! The best offense in the country vs the best defense. Unfortunately for Texas their passing was horrific from the start. Iosia was untypically flat-footed and Nebraska took advantage of that. Just too many unforced errors from the Longhorns. Parra was a no-show thanks to Nebraska's amazing defense. I have to say that the better team won.
Iosia*
Hard watching Texas 💀💀
This game so interesting even to watch now!! I love watching ally get some kills! I’m going to this years game when they play Ohio state and can’t wait to watch her!! My favorite player used to be Lexi sun, but now that she has graduated I love watching ally step up into her position!!
Honestly Texas has had this issue for awhile now and that is the passing but last year they had a great passing core. Now I think it is there chemistry they just seem stoic constantly and there is never a whole lot of smiling and that can be a huge deficit to a team
It’ll be interesting to see how they do with the addition of UCLA’s libero, Third Team & PAC-12 conference libero of the year on Texas’ team & if it’ll be enough on top of their other recruits. Also Skylar Fields being the transfer portal is crazy to consider as well.
I just watched a podcast where Stivrin says that when Nebraska plays they’re having fun & enjoy it even when they’re down. But then she said Texas looked like they wanted to kill each other. And when Nebraska would win or lose a point they would focus on each other to bring them up, but if Texas lost a point they would watch the other team celebrate instead of focusing on their own team.
With Eggleston I saw a lot of both. Sometimes she would try to get her teammates to refocus & regroup, but it wouldn’t be enough because it’s just her doing it.
Texas signed not one, but two Liberos for 2022 including two-time Pac-12 LOTY and All-American Zoe Fleck. This will have a profound effect for the Longhorns. The likely scenario is that Fleck replaces Iosia as Libero while the latter moves to DS, or sub. This also puts Melanie Parra at the front line as a hitter. No more DS for Parra. Apparently Texas is learning what Nebraska already knew. And that is that the key to a great offense is a great defense.
Logan Eggleston, I think kept her cool and that team very focused.
@@jonjonjrfrmcali probs a right side Ds for molly philips
Texas has a more complete team this year than last year.
yeah totally, that Zoe libero from UCLA.....and, how ironic, 2 of these Nebraska girls transfered in too, Akana & Caffey....guess they had a great time playing Texas this night & knew if they joined forces they just might end their college career with an NCAA Championship ring....and they did!!!!!! These new transfers joining forces with Logan & crew was a great move by Coach Elliot!!! Congrats Longhorns on 2022 Championship!!!!
Honestly, I wish they could use more of Parra! :) There’s not even a chance for her to hit a ball.
I know!!! She is probably the most talented player on that team, and they don’t even use her as the weapon she is. Their best back-row player and a killer up front. Maybe Elliot will learn from this
@@sarahellison7995 I’m sorry I love parra but she isn’t the most talented by far. Even when she was playing front row she never averaged as many kills as Skylar is now or eggleston. She’s a great player but y’all hype her up too much and try and put down the other girls in return. It’s not cute
@@Randonmatteo I wouldn’t say most talented but she’s not far from it..if she got as much swings as skylar and logan you’d be surprised how close their numbers would be. Have you seen her carry the Mexican woman’s national team?
@@trianglemusic7517 I’m not saying she’s not talented. I love parra she has one of the best serves texas has ever seen but I feel like she needs more reps with texas setters and more chemistry. I think that’s why Elliot is starting her season off in the backrow first but when she finds that rhythm and confidence in USA college ball she will be unstoppable👍🏼
@@Randonmatteo yeah I agree and also because he already has fields and Logan so he would rather utilize them, but if I were him I’d start to utilize parra before she realizes she can transfer and most likely be a 6 rotation on almost any other team. The more time coach spends keeping her in the back, the less confidence she’ll have, and the more talent she will lose.
THANK YOU
I cant wait for 2022 season I hope Texas and Nebraska meet in the title game
some of texas players really need to fix their attitude tbh...
Fixed it 💍 🏆
@@Blickblickyyyblick74 the ones who needed to fix their attitude left after that season and never got a ring 😅
@@liampotatoe23 sounds good to me 🤘
@@liampotatoe23 skylar fields
@@liampotatoe23and 2 player from neb went to Texas lol
Torres needs to set for Texas on the 4th set. Nebraska got Gabriel's number. She was done for. Need to change up. Too predictable.
I miss Morgan Johnson playing volleyball she was my favorite volleyball player
do you guys know where to get the hair ties saige and logan are wearing?
Nebraska has a really good serve
