in order to pull an upset of Minnesota on the road. I just think it's going to be so tough. I've watched a lot of VB this year on the SEC Network and the B1G Channel, and it just seems like teams like Nebraska and Minny play at a different level. Are they unbeatable? Of course not. But we would need to play a perfect match and catch them on an off night, overlooking us. Which could happen.
I was very unimpressed with Purdue last night. Thought they would be a lot tougher both physically and mentally. That was nothing like the 2013 Purdue team that crushed our hopes that year. I can see why they underachieved in the B1G this year.
And regarding Hawaii, haven't seen them, but have read a lot, and understand they had some early injuries and are healthy now and have a lot of talent. I'd much rather see them play a great match tonight and let us take our chances on the road against a NC or UCLA team next weekend.
