At about 8:45 p.m. Saturday there was a warning light flashing on the Nebraska volleyball team’s chances of winning a Big Ten championship this year.
Iowa, an unranked team with a losing record and a few injured players and a fraction of the volleyball tradition of No. 6 Nebraska, had taken a 2-1 match lead against the Huskers at the Devaney Sports Center.
Iowa, the team that has never beaten Nebraska in 32 all-time matches. Oh, yeah, Nebraska had swept the Hawkeyes just one week earlier in Iowa City.
“I just think that after it, it’s exciting,” said Husker junior right-side hitter Jazz Sweet.
