Third-seeded Wisconsin upset No. 1 Texas 3-1 on Sunday night to advance to the NCAA women's volleyball tournament final four in Kansas City.
Mimi Colyer led Wisconsin with 23 kills, and Una Vajagic added 15. Charlie Fuerbringer dished out 55 assists.
"Everyone just wants it so bad," said Colyer, a transfer from Oregon.
The Badgers' upset of the Longhorns in Austin came hours after third-seeded Texas A&M stunned No. 1 overall seed Nebraska in Lincoln in five sets.
The Aggies take on No. 1 Pittsburgh on Thursday at 6:30 ET (ESPN) in the first national semifinal, and the Badgers play Kentucky in the nightcap.
Wisconsin won its lone national championship in 2021, and Kentucky won its lone title in 2020. Pittsburgh and Texas A&M are both looking to claim their first trophy.
The championship game will be Sunday at 3:30 ET on ABC.
