[Husker] volleyball

So, last night, I watched the first set and my wife wanted to watch a movie
instead, so I hit record on the DVR.  Well this morning, I finally got the
chance to go back and watch it and the DVR SHUT OFF @ 23-21 NU in the 4th
set!!!  I was sooooo mad, I think I'm twice as mad now that I missed the
thrilling ending!

After watching game 2 I thought there was NO WAY we'd win.   Even after game
3, it still seemed like we were committing WAY too many errors to pull it
out.

What an amazing comeback.  Especially down 9-3 in the final set.  They only
go to 15!  A 9 point run is almost unheard of, and exponentially moreso in
that situation.

Great win and I'm glad Larson didn't go out with that game.   That was one
of the more sloppy games I've seen the Huskers play in a long while,
especially early.  Washington seem to have a great defense, but we had WAY
to many hitting errors and seemingly always at the worst time.

Just as they drew it up, Seeds 1-4 will be in Omaha.  Penn State is the real
deal though, haven't lost a set all year.  That's incredible.  Would be an
incredible win if they can pull it off.

Whew :)

They were down 9-3 in the final set. 9-3.

9-3. Get that?

No one comes back from that. No one. Yet they did.

Next up, juggernaut Penn State, winner of 109 straight sets, the team  
of perfection.

Still, whoooeeeeeee!!!!!!!!
