Frustrating last set for Nebraska but they will be back next year since they’re so young. They didn’t really have a go-to hitter and their outsides weren’t as effective. Surprised to see the setter not give their right side more chances

So Caffey wasn't a go to hitter ?? She should have been set more

You are right on Lexi though. She’s going to one of the best liberos in womens college history. She’s got an eye like no one I’ve ever seen before. She has a pro career if she wants one. I’m just happy she’s on our team!

What a match it was!! Always nice to see different teams appearing here! Also love seeing the production quality has improved massively 😂

I was there and it was loud. Congratulations to Wisconsin. great games

this hurts to watch as a nebraska fan 😓 i can’t keep being reminded of this match 😩

the way the setter keeps setting outside… to where erik’s commentary face is and I can’t see what’s happening 😂

Yay!!! I’ve been waiting for this!!

Happy New Year🍾🍻 What a championship match. amazing comeback of Nebraska but the hitters of Wisconsin are great. more power in 2022 Erik

i enjoy when eric react to college volleyball than pro because the game is less perfect so he can point out mistakes and give useful insight and tips , in pro he is just like that player is amazing and his serve is crazy haha

happy new year! i love watching your videos!

Love the shoutouts to players in the game!

All the best to you, Eric, and all supporters of this channel in 2022! Especially health-wise. To Zaksa - I hope you will defend the Championship title and have Eric for the next seaon ;)

hey Erik! Love your channel and its content btw, may I kindly suggest the recent padova v modena game? Featuring some big names like Leal, Bruno and Takahashi! It also happens to be Takahashi's debut game in Italy! (initially I made this comment on another vid but that one wasn't volleyball focused so I figured I'd just move it here ahah)

Agreed! I thought Hames (Neb setter) could’ve have set at least the first bump set … Also watch the second set, especially the end of it

Love this video!

Wish Nebraska won, but it was a good game. Happy New Years Erik and everyone.

Love your reaction video! One suggestion, if you could move yourself to the bottom corners, that will give us a better view of the right side plays.

What a match.

Love it.

happy new year Mr. Shoji. Don't be so hard on Mexico in the World Cup hahaha. Give it your all and good luck

Would be interested in your thoughts on the Louisville/Wisconsin semis this year!

That was the unofficial championship match. I’m a Wisco alum but Louisville didn’t loose, badgers just won.

Hey Eric! Love the videos! Two questions: 1. Can you put yourself in the bottom left or right corner please? We miss some of the action because your beautiful face is covering the right side of the net. 2. Why are there so many more long rallies in women's volleyball? I'm not having a go at women's game it's super entertaining to watch, but I see a clear difference where there are more long rallies in the women's game contrasted with how often men score on the first ball. Is it just a difference in athletic ability even though the net is higher? Are women better readers/defenders because they seem to et under so many more balls? Again I'm not trying to be sexist or shit on anyone but is the huge difference in play styles just height and athleticism? Keep up the amazing work as usual. Happy new year!!

For the reason that there is a clear physical difference between the two that affects every aspect of the game. The west is so politically correct nowadays that pointing out real, obvious and logical differences between men and women is seen as sexist. There's nothing sexist about your observation.

Happy​ New​ year​ 2022.

happy new year！Wish everything successful in the future! Hope you can react to the women semi between USA and Serbia in olympics. That match shows the importance of serving and passing( USA women did a fantastic job in this olympics), working as a whole team instead of relying on a single person, and maybe that could help your national team a little bit.

thankfully the last challenge didn’t change the match too much cause the ref got it wrong. there were additional angles after the match that showed absolutely definitively that there was no touch. great match all around tho such fun volleyball

Will you take a look at the semi final match between USC and the Florida Gators?

You watched the same point twice, around the 11 minute mark. Had me thinking I was in the twilight zone. But great analysis

Where do you watch these vids (flat / service line side angle)? I can only find the official coverage with commentators in youtube

Hey Erik I have a question is it really harder to receive left handed spikes?

@jonathanlaryea5137

2 жыл бұрын

Somewhat. They have a different kind of spin to a right handed spike so it’s a little unfamiliar.

@jacksonmaffey566

2 жыл бұрын

I find the advantage of left handed spikes is when it comes to blockers. Just because the majority of players are right handed, the block is more used to people swinging with their right and may subconsciously line up a bit better for blocking a right handed swing. Then more left handed swings will get through the block so the hitters will generally have a better kill rate at lower level volleyball. Being a left handed hitter has more advantages as a middle and opposite though because an outside hitters right hand gets to the ball first so they can contact earlier which can give the second blocker less time to arrive and cut off all the angle.

I’m playing libero this year in club and I’ve always played middle back on defense. I noticed that you play middle back for USA. Why is that? And any tips for the two diffrent positions?
