Texas had their fair share of blocks against BYU, but it wasn't serial -- two, three, four times in succession. In the fourth set, there was a point where BYU had three blocks. Ouch. There were a couple of Hamson blocks late in that last set where she roofed Ackerman and the ball went straight down. And how many clean kills did Texas have that went straight down in the court? Most were off a block and out of bounds or trickled off the block and down.

There were a couple of times where it really looked like BYU's physical play rattled Texas and the Longhorn hits started sailing long over the top of the block and the passing got super erratic. They could not get in any rhythm or get any momentum going. BYU turned it into an ugly, disjointed match. And the last three matches are the hardest I have seen Hamson and Gray hit the ball. Again, they looked much more physical and intimidating than Texas.

BYU's front row is really protecting the back row which I thought looked a little slow. The libero also hit two serves into the net. That has to get cleaned up.
