No stage is too big for a classic conference rivalry — not even the Final Four.
For the third time this season, ACC foes Pitt and Louisville will go head-to-head, but the stakes are much higher this time with a trip to the NCAA volleyball championship match on the line. The Panthers have defeated the Cardinals twice this fall, 3-2 and 3-1, but that history doesn’t matter now.

These two programs have consistently been each other’s downfall in recent years, yet neither has been able to win a championship of its own.
Last December, the Panthers ousted the Cardinals in the Elite Eight and later fell to Nebraska in the semifinals. In 2022, Louisville eliminated Pitt in the Final Four, but was then swept by Texas for the title.
Somehow, it comes down to this rivalry yet again. Who will punch their ticket to the National Championship? Here’s how to watch.
