In this episode of Volley Talk, we talk about our favorite and least favorite matches of the week. We also discuss the Omaha Supernovas and their uncharacteristic 3-3 start to the season. Will they bounce back and make a push for the top as expected, or does this team just not have it?

Pavan's Percentages makes a comeback, and we talk about teams that have gotten off to a good start in 2026 and others that have us scratching our heads, wondering what is going on.
