It’s been a little bit over a month, however I’m again from parental depart, which suggests our weekly school volleyball energy rankings are additionally again.
Creme’s projections have Nebraska as the general No. 1 seed, and the Cornhuskers are joined on the one-line by Texas, Pitt and Louisville. Nebraska stays undefeated with an ideal 16-0 report and are coming off a 3-0 sweep of No. 12 Purdue. The Cornhuskers haven’t misplaced a set since Sept. 16 — a 3-2 win over Creighton — and are deservedly projected as the highest seed.
However Texas, Pitt and Louisville all seem like actual contenders too. The Longhorns are additionally unbeaten at 14-0 and have dodged just a few upset bids, most not too long ago from No. 17 Tennessee final week.
After opening the season with two losses, Pitt has received 13 of its final 14 video games and owns spectacular wins over Kentucky, SMU, Penn State, TCU and Arizona State. The Panthers’ 2-3 loss at Miami was a shock, nevertheless it’s one they may afford with so many different ranked wins on their schedule. Elsewhere within the ACC, Louisville is 14-2 and has received seven in a row.
Regardless of Creme projecting the Massive Ten and Massive 12 to get probably the most groups into the sphere of 64 with 11 apiece, the ACC seems to be like an actual winner in his bracketology. 4 of his prime eight projected seeds are from the ACC, with SMU and Stanford presently on the two-line. Miami is projected to get a No. 3 seed, whereas North Carolina is saddled with a No. 8 slot. A seventh ACC crew, Georgia Tech, presently finds itself on the event bubble.
Creme’s projections, and our energy rankings, may get shaken up after some essential video games happen this weekend.
