Wisconsin Volleyball Takes on No. 2 Nebraska

Badgers Prepare for Big Ten Clash

The Wisconsin volleyball team is set to face their toughest test of the season on Wednesday night as they travel to Lincoln, Nebraska to take on the No. 2 Nebraska Cornhuskers.

The Badgers enter the match with a 10-1 record, including a 3-0 mark in Big Ten play. Nebraska, meanwhile, is 12-0 and 3-0 in the Big Ten.

The match will be a rematch of last year's Big Ten Championship match, which Nebraska won in five sets.

What to Watch For

Here are some things to watch for in Wednesday's match:

• The battle at the net: Both Wisconsin and Nebraska have talented attackers, so the battle at the net will be crucial. The Badgers will need to find a way to slow down Nebraska's All-American middle blocker Lauren Stivrins.
• The serving game: Wisconsin has been one of the best serving teams in the country this season, and they will need to continue to serve tough against Nebraska. The Cornhuskers have a strong passing game, but the Badgers will need to make them uncomfortable with their serves.
• The home-court advantage: Nebraska will have a huge home-court advantage in Wednesday's match. The Cornhuskers have one of the best home records in the country, and they will be looking to stay undefeated in Lincoln this season.

Prediction

This is a tough matchup for Wisconsin, but they have the talent to compete with Nebraska. The Badgers will need to play their best match of the season on Wednesday night if they want to pull off the upset.
