Can't wait for NU PSU v-ball.  True dislike between the coaches.  Big10 v-ball will be tough....

The first of many epic battles to come against PSU in the B1G.  The Coliseum was LOUD tonight.

Big win by PSU over NU.  That is going to be a great rivalry for us.  I just can't stand PSU's Coach, but he is definitely a good one.

NU clinches at least a tie for the conference crown in it's first year in the league.  Congrats to Coach Cook and the team.

Wonder if they would have been the #1 of they hadn't lost that last reg season match in such a bad way.

Probably.  Top 3 ranked coaches poll teams all in that region.  Big discrepancy between RPI and rankings.
