Vball match up

[BTG_Fan1]

I know this is the wrong section but figure this is the best place for people to see it MODs...

But UNT VBall is playing at Noon on ESPN3 vs WKU at WKU... 

[Mean Green Matt]

Going to be a very tough game considering WKU is the host. I still like our chances for an at large bid even with a loss given our RPI.

The UNT girls looked nervous as if the moment got to them a bit in the first set.

Not going well

Got one set back but still down 2-1. 

[outoftown]

Well, even the third started slow, but somehow they found a roll, and once things were falling in their direction and somebody other than Milam made points for two or three in a row, they started getting visibly more confident and manage to pull out the third. On to set 4.

11-8 WKU in the 4th. The big difference so far across the whole match are the 50-50 balls at the net, where WKUs setter and centers have just been fantastic.

UNT back to within one (19-20. Particularly been good at serve and the freshmen Tiekel on the outside going down the line time and again putting the WKU block into trouble who hasn't completely adjusted yet.

WKU takes it. Good fight by the UNT girls. Lets hope they get an at-large bid to the NCAAs. They would deserve it.

I don’t really know how the selection process works for volleyball. Is it similar to what they do in the basketball tournament? If so North Texas should get an at-large bid I would think.

I thought winning against WKU was at best a long shot.  All the emotional factors were in their favor, plus they are probably a slightly better team.   NT's tournament long slow starts doomed them this time.

RPI dropped a little below 50 after the WKU loss. Will be a nail biter for an at large. I still think we have a good case.
