Since the RPI is now out, I think they should start using that ranking system during matches instead of the non-relevant AVCA poll. Currently, Stanford is ranked below Oregon in the RPI.

Utah tries it's best to give up Set 1 at Washington, squandering a 24-21 lead and going down 24-25...before winning 27-25 #13 Washington having a tough time against the #14 Utes. If they lose here, they still have to play them in Utah where it seems to be always tough for them to win. I think it must be the altitude  |

Utah again almost chokes away a set...up 24-20, they give away four straight...but win 26-24, up 2-0. Washington is without their senior setter, and may have another key injury.

The PAC-12 is very unpredictable. I'm getting my arse kicked in PTW.
And just for those who remain unsure, it IS all about ME.

Also, tough serving. Wisconsin has some issues on defense. I don't see them being in the running for the BIG 10 title. Looks like WI will be 2-4 in conference while MSU will be 5-1. After this win, we want MSU to keep winning until we play them as far as RPI. |

That UBuff match was hard to watch. I saw more than I'd like of "get the ball over, 1-hit over the net" volleys and flat-footed "kill attempts." It was like watching junior high school JV, compared to B1G volleyball. We truly are spoiled.

Ha. That's my big beef w/jv coaches. The goal of the game IS NOT to get the ball over the net. It's to get it to land on the opps' side. Way too often: why attack the ball when you can bump it over? Aaaack!
