Eh seeing Dontaie blast Miss St by himself in the second half and OT was one of my fondest sports memory in recent years.

The girls got the WWWWWWWWWW! I love it. Bring home the Title Ladies!
Watched and enjoyed. These girls are superb...powerful, talented, experienced, and of course well coached. Fun to watch, and great fun to make history this season. NCAA got their seed right so far...they have a great chance to win it all.
These UK ladies r not only incredible volleyball players and ambassadors for the school, but they r very easy on the eyes. Just sayin
A call the refs missed. It was a controversy at all. At least not a big one.
Washington couldn't challenge it b/c their coach used 3 challenges already. Dude would challenge every point if he could.
Well when you want UDub to win, very clearly, you're gonna harp on a call. Tough tiddy though, that'd what you get when you use your third challenge up 10-8 in a set you'd go on to win. 2nd set no less.
The male announcer was worried the whole time about WA using all their challenges early. So obvious who he was rooting for. Then when one of our players hit the net and we got the point he was beside himself. Only call I saw us get the whole night and it devastated the biased announcer. Great seeing us just crush his wish.
Glad I wasn't the only one who caught that. They go home and we advance with all 3 challenges left IIRC.
Wow how good was Wisconsin in 16 games to get the nod for 1 seed when Texas has played 27 games and UK 23....
Jus came to this thread and happy to see we weren't the only ones that noticed the pro Washington coverage, especially by the male announcer. He did the same thing in our match against Purdue but really was going overboard tonight. I'm sure he'll be praising everything Texas/Wisconsin does against us the the title match. The volleyball Cats are just so fun to watch and I'm very proud of what they have accomplished. Not let's be the first SEC school to win the title. GO BIG BLUE!
Really fun to watch. We've got the NPOY, NCOY, 2 other first team players, a 2nd team player and a 3rd team player! Incredible assemblage of talent.
Lilley with 63 outta 65 team assists. I don't watch a ton of volleyball but that's kind crazy isn't it? 97% of the assists.
Announcer is still butt hurt about that missed call in the UK UW game late 2nd set in the Wiscky game. Lol
Haven't seen Wisc play, but just seems a joke to only play 16 games and get the #1 seed when other teams have only lost 1 but played many more games, sure hope they were dominant but they don't look great here.
He's still going on about the net call in the UK game lmao, such butt hurt.
I’d like to personally thank the man that came up with whatever material these volleyball shorts are made out of
DVR it and was watching but it stopped recording g before the 4th set. Congrats to lady cats. One more!!
He can take that and a shot clock violation and stick them up his ***.
Made the same comment during the game. It was almost uncomfortable listening to his giddiness over anything Washington. It was that noticeable.
What a game so fun to watch last night.
We are having some friends over Saturday for a grill out and to watch the Volleyball Game.

If you couldnt tell by the game last night (sarcasm) Paul Sunderland has been the voice of Pac 12 Sports (including volleyball) for at least 30 years. Was almost Walton-esque in his blatant bias for the "Conference of Champions"
Hell, I can remember him doing Olympic Mens Volleyball in the 80's!
Ironically he does alot of womens basketball on SEC Network as well. There it seems like makes a point to piss off some his female color commentators with snarky in game commentary

I had wondered if he had a Pac-12 affiliation, at least Walton comes out and says it and you can have fun with his ridiculousness.
That is a fact. There was not one UK basketball game that came close to the excitement and hustle put out on the court by those young ladies.
This is what college sports should be
Two things in play here.
Big 10 / Pac 10 teams historically get the benefit of the doubt in terms of seeding, never more so this year with Covid.
Texas got underseeded due to one match.....losing to Rice. Which in basketball terms would be like us losing to......Evansville
Im telling you all its an awesome sport.
Only a couple bucks to get into home games to.
We go to a lot of their home games would like to see more people attend and support the Volleyball Team.
Same...unless she's on the same side of the net as me
I know practically nothing about volleyball, but really enjoyed watching KY’s fabulous team play. I hope they win it all !!
Throughout the pre-game, game and post-game, along with the build-up for the TEX-WISC game, was anyone besides me totally impressed by how articulate and knowledgable all the players and coaches were ?? Perhaps I am too naive and ignorant about the sport, but I couldn’t help but notice it ... especially the coaches. They really go into detail about all facets of the games ... and it never sounds like typical “coach speak” ...

I know absolute stud out there but hell the whole team is a bunch of studs!
When I think college sports this is what I am thinking about. They were playing for the University of Kentucky and their team mates. So refreshing
