"Where's the weakness?" That was one of the first post-match comments from the ESPN analysts after the Nebraska Cornhuskers volleyball team took their game to another level in the Lincoln Regional finals against a familiar foe.
For the third time this season, John Cook's squad didn't just beat Wisconsin. They took down the Badgers - a school that has long been a thorn in NU's side - without losing a single set.
On Sunday afternoon, the Nebraska Cornhuskers volleyball team showed what domination looks like as swept the Badgers again. But they didn't just sweep them. They fell behind in the third set, gave Wisconsin just a little bit of hope that they might get into the match, and then went on a 14-6 run to slam the door.
Nebraska Cornhuskers are on to the Final Four
In the end, the Huskers won the match in the only way they could. Harper Murray and Andi Jackson went up and blocked the final attempt at a point by the Badgers. As the ball fell to the court floor, the celebration begun and the Big Ten powerhouse walked off the court wondering if they're ever going to be able to beat NU again.
The Nebraska Cornhuskers volleyball team now goes to the Final Four of the NCAA Volleyball tournament having lost exactly one set. Total. Interestingly enough, the only other potential Final Four team that's had that kind of run in the tournament is Creighton. Should they continue to keep that run going on Sunday night against Penn State, it could be an all-Nebraska national semifinal game.
