There are levels to women's college volleyball, even more so than college football. There are teams in the top 10 that have absolutely no chance to beat one of the top 4 teams, and that's the same every year. There's usually about 3-5 teams that can win it all, and any team outside of those has almost no chance of beating any of those 3-5, let alone having to beat 2 or 3 of them to win it all. It'd be interesting to see how often a non-1 seed wins it all. I'd guess well under 10% of the time.

Louisville is outside of that group this year, but they're the tier below it and Marquette is a couple tiers below that.

take Creighton for example. Hovering around top 10 for years now and haven't really ever come close to beating Nebraska in a match.

Pouring $$$ on MU to win

Take the points

Hard to talk sh it when see see a beat down on the horizon

C'mon let's get back to Badger Hate Week!
Where's the hate everyone? I've posted just 10 times since 2014 and decided to show up again cuz our Warriors need us more than ever given these so very difficult times in our glorious history. This is the rivalry that demands our forever hate. I've been living in Madison surrounded by a sea of god awful red for decades and it's tough times like this moment where we all must come together and show up with their hate. Let's hear some hate. Hate will lead us to victory.

I'd take UW -10.5

Very solid, made me laugh

Quote from: GoldenEagles03 on December 04, 2025, 11:18:05 PMThis bothers me so much. Royce is a big problem in this department. They get the look and panic. All fundamentals go out the window when we get close to the basket.

Whatever happened to playing off two feet and playing through contact?

Thanks for this. Adds to the whole picture.

I was going to ask for more basic and advanced stats as well

Xavier with a nice win over Cincy in the Crossrown Shootout. X's roster starting to come together.

Tre Carroll droped 30 on 14/23 shooting. Rivalry games...

Quote from: MU82 on Today at 08:12:50 PMJust watched the match - really impressive outing. I guess they deserved to be in the field after all.

Do upsets ever happen in college volleyball? Maybe tomorrow will be the day for a big one!

Not that big.
