2018 D1 Women's Soccer Talk!!

Don’t need to look farther than the FSU- Miami game yesterday. Shots 24-1 to FSU. Final score 1-0 Miami

I saw that game on replay and it just proves that God has a sense of humor. Sort of like the UCLA vs Wazzu game.
 
Wow Gonzaga came to play today. Unexpected result.

That result pretty much does Pepperdine in for postseason consideration. They need a draw up in Provo and some upsets then they win the tiebreaker with a three way tie for first. Not putting away their early chances cost them the season. Their RPI is 51 and won’t likely move 10 spots by next Sunday night. Next year should be better.

Pepperdine loses some very strong defensive seniors and their all star goalie. IMO they will have a harder time next year considering the minimal loses form the other WCC teams, except Gonzaga.

Gonzaga loses a lot of seniors. They won’t be as good as this year.

St mary’s Loses no one of significance

Pacific started mostly freshman. Lose no one of significance.

LMU - only loses top forward

Portland - loses no one of significance

Santa Clara - loses top forward

BYU - loses a few, but returns all stars

USF - returns stars and loses a few MF

San Diego - loses very good forward


Prediction for next year

BYU
Santa Clara
Portland
Pepperdine
San Diego
USF
Loyola
pacific
St. mary’s
Gonzaga

USC 0 at Utah 0, OT

Arizona State 4 at Oregon State 0
