The Nebraska Huskers have won 25 matches this season with no losses. Their next match against Michigan will pit Nebraska’s Harper Murray against Michigan’s Kendall Murray in a classic showdown. Despite this encounter being the most talked about topic, another recent update has grabbed the attention of many. Nebraska Volleyball made a tweet on its official X account, which sounded like parting words from the players. The tweet carried the caption, “Last reg szn practice in The Bob,” along with several pictures. For fans who don’t know the lay of the University of Nebraska-Lincoln, The Bob is the name of the sports complex where the Huskers train.

The sports complex is named after Bob Devaney, who was the Nebraska Huskers’ former football coach. Originally known as the Devaney Center, Nebraska athletes affectionately call the place ‘The Bob.’ While this may be their last regular season training at The Bob, Nebraska will make sure to use every ounce of it in its upcoming matches.

Nebraska has already defeated the Michigan Wolverines in a clean sweep during their previous encounter. Moreover, they will have the home-court advantage this time as well. The Huskers will then face the Iowa Hawkeyes as their first road opponents. However, the Hawkeyes are one of the least impressive teams in the league and thus, will not prove to be much of a threat.
