Nebraska Cornhuskers ranked preseason No. 1 in AVCA poll

The Nebraska Cornhuskers have secured the top spot in the AVCA Preseason Coaches Poll released today. This marks the ninth time Nebraska has opened as No. 1, the most of any program. This ranking follows a fifth-place finish in the 2025 season after their only loss to Texas A&M, the eventual national champions. The Huskers prepare for their season opener against second-ranked Texas in a few weeks, aiming to capitalize on a strong roster returning all key players.
