Nebraska had one rough first set tonight as Michigan took this one 28-26. It seemed like they were playing off the momentum from the third set last night since the third against Illinois didn’t really go that great.
The Huskers had 10 attacking errors in the first set alone. They also had 4 service errors plus other mistakes that don’t show up in the stat lines. This all attributed to Nebraska dropping the first set and not looking ready for the match. It looked like they expected an easy match to start, but this Michigan team is very different than last season’s.
