Texas ended the 2023 season atop the college volleyball world, defeating Nebraska in the national championship match. En route to the title match, the Longhorns defeated Wisconsin in the national semifinals setting up a highly anticipated rematch to start the 2024 season. Texas also defeated Stanford in the regional final, while Minnesota advanced to the Round of 32.
The four programs have combined for 14 national championships, 17 runner-up finishes and 48 Final Four appearances since 1981. The teams have combined to win six of the last eight national championships and at least one of the four has appeared in every Final Four since 2012.
Wisconsin and Texas have faced each other nine times previously, including three times in NCAA Tournaments, with the Longhorns holding a narrow 5-4 edge in the series. Stanford holds a 5-0 advantage over Wisconsin in the all-time series, and this will be the second regular season matchup between the programs and the first since 1993. The other four matches have come in NCAA Tournaments.
Minnesota and Stanford have met 15 times previously – including four times in the postseason – with the Cardinal having won 12 of those matches. The two teams have squared off in the regular season seven times since 2015. Texas holds a 7-5 all-time series lead over Minnesota, and this year’s matchup will be the sixth regular season meeting between the storied programs since 2017.
