Washington down 20-23 in the third. Looked like a Wash hitter emailed the ball about 5 yards out. Wash challenged & won so was 21-23. Wash then won the next 2 points. Creighton looking demoralized.

John Cook's bargain with Satan remains unbroken. Nebraska sweeps Missouri.
Michigan defeats the Pitt-thetic Pitt-iots in five sets.

Washington sweeps Creighton in 3 (or is it 4 ). Blocks were something like 15 - 7 in favor of Washington. So, a 19-12 Wash teams takes it to a 29-4 Creighton team. Lets hear it for RPI!!! Hip Hip Hooray!!!

One last thought. Creighton and Pittsburgh losses point out the disadvantage of playing in a weak league. A battle tested Pac12 or B1G team has a distinct advantage over teams from a weak conference. We saw this before when Missouri, 35-0, was taken down by Purdue, who was the 6th best team in the B1G at the time. To be fair, Kentucky took down Purdue tonight, which says something about how good they are. Didn't see the match so will have to look on VolleyTalk to see what happened.

I think the Pitt loss is in a different category: Pitt lost its second-best attacker (only a smidgeon behind #1) -- Kayla Lund -- during last night's match. With Kayla Lund playing, it's a different match and I think Pitt very well might have won.
