The DePaul press was a factor and forced a lot of bad passes and turnovers. I think we play long ball too much at times when we should keep the ball on the ground, use the space given and work it up gradually. We also need to be faster on the counterattack as sometimes we pull the ball back which allows the defense to recover. Not sure why, but our corner kicks have not been the best. My kid is good in the air but I can't recall very many balls that she would have legitimately had a chance to get a head on.
As you said, growing pains and I expect them to bounce back on a Sunday.

I hope we see your kid soon. Like Sunday. The unscored on streak is over so let's see what she's got.

umm I thought that we already had a number. UCLA minus 1/2. Did I just imagine that? 3 goals is a non-starter. Not that I don't think that they are going to win by 3. I just don't like that number in what amounts to a local rivalry game. That and Pepperdine is a top 25 by the end of the season.
You can have Pepperdine plus a half a goal. The Bruins will win. It could be 1-0 or it could be 4-0. Pepperdine is good.

Yet they couldn't stop Florida in any meaningful way and are extremely vulnerable to a team of similar caliber. I'm just saying. Until the get their starting defense back they are going to struggle to beat any of the other 5 contenders. Running up the score against scrubs isn't impressive and as you probably figured out West Virginia isn't one of those 5.
You can't look at the checker playing exams when you judge them. They hang with a different crowd.

Was this all talk then @The Driver ? I understand if it was but the crowd I hang with only spits real talk not bravado. If you are a man of his word you see in writing what you posted. Otherwise it's just talk and that's what most on this forum are about. You've seen the product that I put on the field. I was talking smack from day one because like I said my kid was engineered for this.
The ball is in your court. Are you all talk or what?

They weren't number one when you were talking up the Waves. You forget I know a lot more about them than the press reports...

@The Driver you are being unclear again. Are you saying okay I am honoring what You said or okay you are backing out of what You said earlier?

@MakeAPlay I love how you trying to work this friendly wager for entertainment purposes only
Let me know when you want to handicap the game

I don't wager for entertainment I wager to win. Clearly you are playing kid games. I am the one who wanted it handled via PM so no entertainment here. It sounds to me like you are all talk. I quoted your post. Now you are saying we are handicapping the game. This ain't casino. I don't handicap. You said Pepperdine plus 1/2 which is why @Ricky Fandango asked were you generous or rich.
Stop with the kid games. My friendly wagers are real. Please remember that the next time you want to suggest one. I think that you might have me confused with someone else.

Oh @MakeAPlay you making a big deal out of handicapping the UCLA Pepperdine game. Let's handicap this one.
