The Badgers are showing zero signs of either holding back or slowing down as they mowed down another volleyball team.

The Wisconsin Badgers have sent a message throughout the NCAA that a match against them has only one outcome. Wisconsin drilled massive holes in the defense of Oklahoma State University (OSU) with its fiery and unmatched offense. The crushing offense badly damaged the morale of OSU who couldn’t fight back after a first-set loss. B1G Ten Volleyball tweeted a video that showed the final point of the video that ended in OSU’s defeat.

The tweet carried the caption, “30 CONSECUTIVE SET WINS for @BadgerVB.” The final point sealed the 30th straight-set victory for the Badgers women’s volleyball team. This furthered Wisconsin’s winning streak to 18, with the last ten of them being absolutely flawless. Wisconsin beat Oklahoma the same way it beat Maryland a few days ago by destroying its spirit in the first set. The rest of the match followed a one-sided show as OSU failed to even reach 20 points. In fact, Wisconsin smashed a humiliating 11 aces against OSU in response to just 1.

Seeing the charts, Oklahoma couldn’t even make 10 kills in either set despite having a near-identical hit percentage to Wisconsin in set one.
