Lady Horns Volleyball Thread

Now 4-0 and beat #4 Nebraska tonight. Another big game against Florida tomorrow. The crazy thing is we are only at about 80 percent strength right now.

This team is going to be unreal at the end of the year once we get healthy and the freshman integrated.

I was at a local HS volleyball game so I missed Texas beating Nebraska. The good thing is I have the LHN so I'll watch the re-run.

Horns lose to Florida 3-1. Florida's blocking, Texas' lack of blocking & Texas' service errors doom the Horns.

Mirta Baselovic came in during the 4th set and played very well when Texas needed her. I have a feeling she'll see the court a bit more after today's performance.

Our best player didn't play either. Elliott is being extra cautious with players that have nagging injuries. The fact we almost took Florida to five sets without Ebony tells me we are going to be damn good when healthy.

True. In fact, they stated she was wearing a boot today.

Just precautionary. She played against Nebraska and was a big reason we beat them.

It seems a bit ridiculous to have 14 members on the All-Big12 "First Team" for volleyball and 10 members on the All-Big12 "Second Team in a conference with 9 teams.

Texas sweeps Fairfield 3-0, even though they didn't play up to their normal standard. They will play Purdue tomorrow night at 6pm.

Congrats ladies. They definitely did not have their A game tonight. They looked sloppy at times.

 

[tejasrulz]

Texas beats Purdue 3-1 to advance. They had to come from behind in sets 3 & 4, with the score 27-25 in the 4th. Good game.

Tight game tonight. I'd prefer to think it was because Purdue is a pretty salty team. Hope the girls can make the Final Four!

The Big 1G is IMHO the toughest conference in volleyball with the Pac 12 2nd so yea, they are/were a pretty salty team. Texas has a tough road to the Final 4 since we will probably play UCLA next week, who beat #1 USC a week or so ago. If we get by them, then they face the winner of the Wisc/Florida game and if you remember, Florida beat Texas in Austin 3-1 earlier this year.
