Nebraska and Louisville are both coming into Sunday with a six match winning streak and each with only one loss in their season. They both lost on September 3rd in straight sets. Nebraska’s loss was to SMU, and Lousiville’s to Penn State. Both teams also just beat a top ranked opponent on September 18th. Louisville beat #11 Kentucky in four sets and Nebraska beat #2 Stanford in three sets. Those are a lot of similar dates and outcomes!
These similarities and outcomes have a great deal to do with the fact that both programs played a challenging pre conference schedule.
