Nebraska volleyball keeps winning, and last weekend it had to come from behind to do it. The No. 1 Huskers are 23-0 overall and 12-0 in the Big Ten, with a 13-0 home record and an 8-0 mark on the road, per the official schedule.
Last weekend in Michigan
Both matches went four sets, and in both Nebraska lost the first set (schedule results):
| Date | Opponent | Result | Set scores |
|---|---|---|---|
| Fri. Oct. 30 | at Michigan | W 3-1 | 26-28, 25-20, 25-20, 25-14 |
| Sat. Oct. 31 | at No. 25 Michigan State | W 3-1 | 21-25, 25-19, 25-17, 25-12 |
The pattern is worth noting without overreading it. Nebraska trailed after one set twice in two nights, then won six straight sets, and the final set of each match was the most lopsided. Athletics’ recap of the Michigan match is here.
