I am planning to subscribe online to BTN+. There is a BTN disclaimer for online subscriptions for BTN+. “Please be aware that BTN Plus Subscriptions will NOT include access to Big Ten Football games or any other televised B1G games or events (on BTN, ESPN, FOX, etc.).” Will the first three matches be televised or are they only online? Online/streaming, I believe.

BTN and BTN-Plus are separate services. So, you only get one or the other from a subscription and viewing matches standpoint.

If you subscribe to BTN+ then you only get that service, if you want BTN you have to get it from your cable or sat provider

I am puzzled by your comments regarding Nebraska since they have consistently had highly rated for the past few years and have blended in the new players with the returning veterans. Perhaps you know something I don't?
Because Nebraska has a freshman setter and it's extremely difficult and rare for freshmen setters to win it all; statistically speaking.
Since Nebraska also has a beach VB program they seem to practice year-round which gives them a big advantage IMHO.

Are all the indoor players involved in the beach program?

I think that most are, but not all.

In looking at other important early season matches, Nebraska plays Florida today. I think Nebraska deserves it preseason #2 ranking and could turn out to be the best team in the country once again. I would be surprised if Florida takes a set from Nebraska.
Update: After watching the first two sets on TV, can I delete this comment.

Your update had me chuckling.
I always felt like Nebraska would have their struggles early in the season.
Losing Kelly Hunter to graduation left a huge hole for the Huskers, and it'll take time for the new setter to settle in.
I think by the end of the season Nebraska will be playing up to their typical standards (as most expected).
