In between dominant back-to-back wins, the top-ranked squad still finds time to stay keen on the trends. Dozens of videos are posted to the program's and players' accounts every single week, and this season, it's a little more special.

After 25 years at the helm, John Cook stepped down as head coach in January, ushering in a new era of Nebraska volleyball under alumni Dani Busboom-Kelly. The Big Red hasn't lost a match since, holding the national No. 1 ranking for nearly two months.

Get a glimpse into the Huskers' historic season and undeniable team chemistry through their viral TikTok content below.
