Looks like Stanford is the real deal, Minnesota not living up to preseason Hype, But we'll see long season ahead, The only game that really counts is the last one you play, Hopefully for the championship.

I was there last night and Stanford is definitely the real deal. With the exception of the first set the Gators weren't in the match at all. Plummer is going to be hard to stop but hopefully we can slow her down next Friday!

I think Wisconsin is a top two team in the country. Rettke might be the most valuable college player in the country. However, I am old school and get turned off by her excessive celebration on every play she makes. I would like to see her tone it down a bit but that's just me and my personality.

Marquette leading 22-20 in set 3.
And Wisconsin ties it at 22.
Personally, I'm fine with Wisconsin sweeping--I can quit monitoring.
Tied at 23 and 24 and 25 and 26 and 27

I'm upset because my Fubo.TV subscription stopped showing the match at the beginning of the 4th. Inexcusable.

Wisconsin can't close/Marquette won't let them. This is spectacular volleyball. Great play after great play. Marquette doing to Rettke what the best internationals could not do this Summer.
