The expectation is set; Nebraska is ranked #1 in the AVCA Coaches Poll. Also earning first place votes: #2 Texas and #3 Wisconsin.
While Texas and Nebraska don’t play head to head this season they do have common opponents. Both teams play Ohio State, Minnesota and Stanford this season.
The same is true for Louisville and Nebraska; they don’t play but they have common opponents. Louisville and Nebraska both play Ohio State, Stanford and Kentucky.
Of course Nebraska and Wisconsin play but we have to wait until October 26th to see it.
Here are the top 25 teams (with my comments)
