OSU beats UCLA in 5 sets. So, we don’t have to play UCLA a 4th time for the championship!
BYU should have no problem beating Ohio State.
How OSU beat UCLA is beyond me. The final should be a sweep in favor of the Cougars.
I don’t know. They have 3 excellent servers and player and coach of the year. It’s going to be tough!
Yeah, maybe.
Truth is UCLA blew it… they had match point several times and lost focus. UCLA beat Ohio St. earlier in the year and BYU should be able to take care of them. We know why BYU doesn’t have the player of the year… they are BYU. Ohio St. also lost to Ball State this season, but they are Ohio St. so of course they get all the recognition.
The league and teams Ohio State plays during the season are much weaker overall than the MPSF teams.
Jim : Did you hear Jaroam Jordan on Ohio State’s serving against UCLA. It will be tough. The best team tomorrow will win.
Jim: You might be right about a lesser schedule for Ohio State.Like I said, the best team tomorrow will win.
Might be right? No… I am right. The MPSF, top to bottom, is much better than whatever conference Ohio State plays in. I will relent that they are a decent team, but their 3 losses are worse than BYU’s 3 losses and BYU plays much better teams week in and week out than Ohio St. does.
That is all I am saying.

BYU chokes away set #1…
Clearly the better team, but when you play like the deer in the headlights… don’t expect to win.
Time to get it back on track and show everyone which team is the best in the nation.
Let’s go Cougs!!!
What is wrong with them? Lanlois gave messed up 5 plays. Patch woofs one. Ugly!
We lost both Rugby matches too. What’s going on?
Now Patch is costing us. And that stupid fan.
That fan lost the momentum, the game and got into the heads of the BYU players, in my opinion. BYU needs to hire an expert sports psychologist to work with both BYU men’s and women’s sports teams during championship games, Gonzaga games and Utah games. Unbelievable how BYU chokes.
That fan turned things around. Instead of 21-17 it was 20-18 and momentum or something shifted. Hard to figure out but I wrote about what you said in the off-topic section
Jim H: Too bad, BYU blew the first two sets after leading by 3 and 2 several times and blew set winners six times in each of the first two sets.
Our serving has something less to be desired. Horrible. OS served like we should have. All those easy serves seen in Ward activities won’t help win anything. Before next year we have to serve much better.
Deer in the headlights…
Nothing really more to say than that.
It has been a problem for BYU since the beginning of time. Whenever there is something important on the line and the pressure ramps up, the Cougars fold up like an accordian…
I know I have made comments in the past about BYU needing to hire a sports psychologist and I was as serious then as I am now. Our teams need the extra edge that comes when you have the confidence and mental strength to win important sports contests. They should not have lost to Ohio State and certainly should not have been swept. That is ALL a result of lack of mental preparation. They were the better team and they wilted under pressure. Sad…
The same thing happened 3 years ago against UC Irvine. I blame it, in large part, on the bubble effect. There is something in the water in Provo…
