Same place. Same number. Even the same pregame restaurant.But 21 months later, everythings different for Briana Holman, the espnW player of the week, after appearing in her first game for top-ranked Nebraska since transferring from LSU.Holmans efficient debut -- hitting .471 with 10 kills and a match-high seven blocks against No. 10 Florida, followed by a .727 effort with eight kills against No. 2 Texas -- helped the defending national volleyball champions go undefeated in the VERT Challenge in Oregons Matthew Knight Arena last weekend.The Ducks home gym is the same place where Holman played her last game for LSU, a second-round NCAA tournament loss in December 2014. The Cornhuskers even ate at the same restaurant, the Oregon Electric Station, where Holman had dined with the Tigers back then.I even sat in the same exact room, but I got the salmon then, said the 6-foot-1 middle blocker. This time -- lobster mac and cheese. Better choice.The same goes for her selection of schools, Holman said, calling Nebraska a better fit overall after two seasons as a Tiger when she collected All-America honors. The junior expected to play immediately in Lincoln. But LSU did not grant her release, even after an appeals process. That forced Holman to sit on the bench and watch as Nebraska won the 2015 national championship.Dont tell Holman that the stakes werent as high this time around against Texas.Being out there was just an amazing feeling. Thats the only word I can use, she said. I didnt get to play in the national championship, and this was a rematch. I was just so fired up.Adding more fuel: Her former AAU rival Ebony Nwanebu stars for the Longhorns. The Texas natives played for dueling clubs in high school.We were two of the best in the area and we always seemed to match up against each other, said Holman, whose hometown is DeSoto.Admittedly, coach John Cook didnt know what to expect from Holman, whose athleticism and court vision are superb. He knew how motivated she was -- she was voted lifter of the year by her teammates coming into the season.I was really worried she might be too worked up instead of just going out to play, said Cook, who has coached the Cornhuskers to three national titles. I thought there might be a lot of nerves and expectations and pressure and trying to be perfect. Shes been working with our sports psychologist for this past weekend and was really amped up.Holman gives kudos to teammate Kelly Hunter for the smooth transition.Shes the best setter Ive ever worked with, she said. Shes just so effective and gives really good feedback. We have really good communication. She made things easy for me.Wearing No. 13 again, Holman said she has learned to appreciate being a true team player. I understand what it means to give your team your all, she said. I couldnt play last year, so my words and my actions were all I could give. You could say Ive grown into a leadership role.The top goal for Holman this season is to experience a national championship on the court instead of on the bench. Last years sweep of Texas was bittersweet, she said.I was super excited we won, but I would have loved to have been out there. Seeing how hard my teammates worked and having it all pay off is something Ill always cherish, even though I wasnt out there.But now the mindset is to dream bigger. No Huskers team has repeated as national champ.Were off to do the whole back-to-back thing, Holman said. I think we can.The Cornhuskers (2-0) host their own tournament this weekend, meeting Iowa State on Friday and Oregon State on Saturday in the Nebraska Invitational. Wholesale Nike Free Australia .

Nike Free Shoes Australia . -- Yogi Ferrell orchestrates pretty much everything in Indianas offence. A lack of confidence and no killer blow halted the Wallabies historic charge in Pretoria, and halfback Will Genia believes the pressure is on the backline to return both against Argentina at Twickenham.Australia dominated most facets of Saturdays tough 18-10 loss to the Springboks but, much to Genias dismay, couldnt convert field position and possession into points - which continued their winless record at Loftus Versfeld.If we can take our points when theyre on offer, we know that we can trust our defence to shut them out, Genia said.The onus is on us as a backline to execute a little bit better. If we can do that we give ourselves every chance of winning and winning well.The team has made no attempt to hide its disappointment at the defeat and has vowed to make amends in the final Rugby Championship fixture this year.There was plenty of space, just a disappointment that we left a huge opportunity slip, Genia said.Weve been saying it for a long time now that when we create opportunities and give ourselves chances in matches, we are just not taking them.By not executing those little thhings we are not giving ourselves the chance to score tries, to make scoring plays.ddddddddddddeve got to keep working and stay tight. Maybe it is a confidence thing , individually or collectively as a group.Certain parts of our game we are doing well, certain parts we are not.And then we are not doing that consistently over the 80 minutes of the game - maybe (we need to) concentrate better in certain periods of the game.The familiar surrounds of Twickenham, for so long a graveyard for touring Wallabies teams, has been seen this week as a welcome fixture given Australias dream run at the ground as they progressed to last years World Cup final.But Genia is cautious when discussing how much good feeling theyll glean from the ground.Its nice to come back and have those memories lingering, he said.The other thing is we are under no illusions its going to be tough and we arent relying on it being a comfortable venue for us or that there is any advantage in that.
