I am planning on taking my daughter to one of these matches. Right now it is looking like the Friday game but I won't know for sure until tomorrow (It's based on the whims of a 14 year-old). She's in her first year of taking volleyball seriously and this should be a blast.
 
EVERYTHING going wrong the last 2 sets. Buffs down 5-12 in the 4th after giving up a 5 or 6 point run to start the set they haven't been able to dent yet.
 
Ugliest set I've ever seen (although Oregon playing like a #15 team at home). Buffs losing 8-21 in the 4th.
 
Well- volleyball is a crazy momentum sport, and sometimes 5th sets are where it changes again, but Buffs with no element of their game that was even mediocre in the 4th set- serve receive HORRIBLE, block non-existent, hitting ineffective and Buff serve causing the ducks NO problems.
