Down 2 sets to 1, time for some energy

So far, the team on the east side of the net wins that game. Sure hope it holds true this game but not the 5th. Gotta win this one to stay in it.

 

[Ms3r4ISU]

Up 23-19 and KSU uses final TO. Let’s finish this game.

 

[Ms3r4ISU]

Won 25-23, teams staying in place. Juicy Wiggle time!

 

[MuskMisk]

Need Hilton magic. 2-1 to start set 5

 

[Ms3r4ISU]

Up 8-6, switching sides. Seven to go.

Need Hilton magic. 2-1 to start set 5

it is Cyclone Arena according to the espn announcers but they don't know who is playing. have heard them make several misstatements about the iowa cyclones today.

 

[Ms3r4ISU]

Down 11-10 and we take a TO. Kinda fell apart the past few points.

 

[Ms3r4ISU]

Up 13-12, KSU takes TO. Two points, in a row, please.

 

[Ms3r4ISU]

There’s one more! And KState’s second TO.

 

[Ms3r4ISU]

And now our final TO at a 14-14 score.

 

[isulifer08]

Oh my gosh. Had 14-13 and couldn't handle the serve relieve. Now tied 14 all

 

[Ms3r4ISU]

Well, phooey. Lost 22-20, 3-2.

 

[MuskMisk]

Another rough loss after going so deep into the 5th… again. Trying to find some bright spots… team shows a lot of grit and got the short serves figured out.

Sigh...

I don’t even pretend to know anything about analyzing volleyball but the 2 matches I have been to this year it seems like we give up a lot of points on bad serves. Can someone who understands the sport more than I do explain if this is actually an accurate analysis or not and maybe some reasons for it.

 

[Cyfan1965]

You have to serve tough to get the other team out of system but they risk reward for the matches I have seen this year too much risk little to no reward. I have never seen as many service errors as we have had this year, ever.

Does anyone know why CJL is not playing or playing certain players in the rotation? Pam McCune is an instant energy booster and gets a lot of kills and blocks.....why did she wait to play her until the 3rd set?

I can't give actual analysis but as someone who has been to every home match except for the Tech one, and watched almost all of their away games on tv, we have to be near the top (or perhaps bottom in this case) in service errors....and they're always at the most inopportune times
