2019 PSU WVB Thread

[ILLINOISLION]

you wonder how many are last-second decisions by the PSU attacker to try to get a point by surprise, and how many are the result of poor sets that leave the attackers nothing but poor options.

Tom, just the most current one of the millions and billions of things I wonder about.....!

polls by @Midnighter must add to your burden.

another 5-set thriller between PSU and Nebraska.

Nebraska was up 10-5, but PSU stormed back, though they never got the lead. Nebraska served at match point at 14-11, but PSU won the point, 14-12. Then PSU blocked a shot to make it 14-13, Nebraska. At that point, Nebraska called TO. Nebraska got a kill off of PSU's next serve, winning the set 15-13, and the match 3-2

Most of the poor women in his polls are lucky they can walk without a compensating backpack to prevent them from falling forward.

My tastes are much more similar to Fair’s, the “girl next door” type of gal.

 

[PeetzPoolBoy]

Bummer on the outcome.

My only other observation is that Nebby’s d-bag of a coach doesn’t look healthy to me. There’s something wrong with him.

 

[ILLINOISLION]

Despite the loss, I think the Ladies have continued to improve as the season has progressed. Parker’s off-night serving really hurt tonight.....but hey, it happens to the best of them.

Th is team is much improved from the start of season. That was a great match! Play that in Happy
Valley and u reverse the results.
Short on outside hitters and just overall short, this team is still a tough out. Hope for a great tournament.

Another loss to Nebraska in Women's Volleyball

they seem to have our #. They do play awsome defense.

This is just terrible.

Apocalyptic!

I know.....we already have a WVB thread, why start a new thread? Pathetic!

I was impressed with Nebraska's roster

There must have been a sale on Walmart blue jeans in extra large.

They all went to the same colorist.

I've noticed that too. Also, Gaby seems to often have trouble timing quick sets to her middles. Too many of them require Gray or Hord to come up with an athletic move just to tip it.

It's embarrassing to have any PSU team ranked below a spitt team.

You are embarrassed easily.

You are embarrassed easily.

Really? When you are a Varsity S Club member, let me know. Until then, being ranked behind spitt is embarrassing.

Obviously, acting with class is not a requirement to get in to your "elite" Club Spaulding.......

But it does appear hubris and arrogance are required.

PSU 3-1 over #15 Purdue

[NittanyLionFan]

Ohio State upset Wiscsonsin this weekend, handing the Badgers their first conference loss of the season. PSU sits tied with Nebraska at two conference losses, behind Wiscosin and Minnesota with one each. And... PSU hosts both of those one-loss teams Thanksgiving weekend. Gotta convince the family to stay after the Rutgers game for that match! Go State!

How did sPitt get good at volleyball?

How did sPitt get good at volleyball?

The same way we did, by recruiting out of state.

They hired a good coach.

A previous Fairgambit Enterprise employee?

No doubt a relative of dubious distinction.
