Not a fan of Wisconsin but pulling for them because they’re Big Ten and think/hope they will beat Nebraska and since we lost to them, it’s a weird sort of consolation that we lost to the number 1

DIII Not sure if anyone has mentioned Juniata cruised by NYU and then Hope to win the tourney. Congrats to them.
Personal note it was the RR camps w Bok at juniata where my love for PSUWVB was born.

I can't think of a reason to root for any of the Final 4 teams. And I don't like any of those coaches. I have nothing against any of their players. If and when we are eliminated, I can root for a true underdog. These teams are not that. But....maybe I can be glad that the Cardinal can't pull any further ahead of us in National Championships. And if it's Wisconsin and Nebraska in the Final, well we beat one and we were up 2 sets on the other. There. Merry Christmas

Semifinals tonight - Who are your picks to make it to Sunday's Championship Match? Final 4 teams are coached by 4 men. Two did not play volleyball before becoming coaches -- the 2 B1G coaches. Those 2 have been at their current coaching positions for many years. I'm thinking D1 head coaching is going to change toward more women coaching women's volleyball, and those women will have been college and perhaps professional players who move into coaching. Kind of like our Head Coach!!

Oh, Pitt Panthers. 3 straight years in National Semifinals. 3 straight losses. Sorry, not sorry.

Maybe some of his phenomenal freshmen will jump ship and we'll see their names in the portal. Katie, you know what you have to do.

I'm normally "Horns Down" and I want the Big Ten to reclaim the NCAA WVB title... But since I don't want Nebraska to get closer to PSU's National Championship count... I guess I'll be rooting for Texas.

I can’t pull for either team - just hoping for good match - Texas looked really good last night.

Didn’t expect the badgers to get beat so badly I never liked the 6-2. Wisconsin passers were also woeful in that match.

Should be an intense match given the history of the two teams playing against each other in the Big12, and the personal history too I expect we'll see some drama between the players and coaches.
