The difference between beach volleyball and court volleyball is pretty significant

They had to cancel a couple of the games because of moisture on the courts. Nebraska likely not to have that issue but basketballs are much heavier than volleyballs. Volleyballs are quite a bit more vulnerable in wind. They can play these matches if it's windy but it will very much have a negative affect on the play, in a lot of ways it's probably better that they're playing Omaha as opposed to a better opponent because the conditions could be an equalling factor.

Agree.  Also, there were zero bad seats on the aircraft carrier….very small stands.  Sitting in the upper deck for a volleyball game does not sound pleasant to me.

I'd imagine it's like watching a final four game, when it was in Arlington I read that most people just watched the games on the video board.

Hmmmmmm, I prefer my Nebraska fans delusional and not self aware.  I hope this humility is not a trend for them.

Delusional because Colorado is without a doubt the '23 offseason national champs and this is not even a debate.
