NCAA Division I Volleyball Committee Reveals Cards as No. 1

The Division I Women's Volleyball Committee revealed its top 10 rankings on Sunday, Oct. 31. Louisville takes the No. 1 spot followed by Texas, Wisconsin and Pittsburgh.

The announcement provides the first look at teams that could potentially earn some of the top seeds for the 2021 Division I Women's Volleyball Championship tournament and they are based on results through Wednesday, Oct. 27. Although it has no impact on the final bracket, it gives us all a glimpse of how the Committee is viewing all of the teams and what they value the most.

Louisville takes the No. 1 spot in the top 10 rankings. They got the nod over Texas, the current No. 1 team in the AVCA rankings. We sat down with Sherene Brantley, the DI women's volleyball committee chair, to break down the top 10. She said Louisville took the No. 1 spot because they have four top-10 wins over Pitt, Kentucky, Georgia Tech and Purdue, whereas Texas has no top-10 wins. She also said Louisville has been dominant, with 16 wins in three sets.
Texas has two top-10 matchups next week back-to-back against Baylor, and Louisville still has the tests of Pitt and Georgia Tech for the second time this season. Texas and Louisville are the last two remaining undefeated teams in the NCAA.

Here's the list:
1.) Louisville
2.) Texas
3.) Wisconsin
4.) Pittsburgh
5.) Kentucky
6.) Nebraska
7.) Ohio State
8.) Baylor
9.) Georgia Tech
10.) UCLA
