2018 D1 Women's Soccer Talk!!

[Fact]

You dish it but you can’t take it. You’re out of your depths here at the surface.

Oh come on . . . Ricky and his prior accounts have been one of the main reasons I have hung around here so long. Gonna miss the guy. He needs to follow a niece or nephew or adopt one.

Haters gonna hate a BruWins will be in Cary in December. Can you seriously say the same.

What happened MAP? I think you should start predicting for next year. Ha ha.

Ricky ain’t goin nowhere. If necessary, I’ll start a Fandango thread...

Great game last night. MAP's kid hit a great ball to set up the second goal for UCLA. She consistently delivers an excellent ball off her right foot all over the field.

I know people will think I 'm crazy since she scored two goals, but I thought Mace looked liked the weakest field player. She looked atrocious anywhere outside the box. It shocked me.

I agree she looked out of sorts on defense which was indeed odd as I believe that is her original position pre-college. Once she got moved up front in the second half, she appeared to be more comfortable and was able to attack at will.

Good luck to your Cardinal and see you in Cary.

No Cary for you.

Pool party day for my favorite team. Working on team chemistry the key to success.

Did you encourage the team to kneel? Needed another pool party?

 

[push_up]

Contenders vs Pretenders. I will take UCLA and Stanford against the field.....

Lol.

 

[push_up]

It does go by fast. They have incredible team chemistry. They are willing to fight for each other. This year is going to be another fun one. I’m hoping that it ends just a tiny bit differently. Good luck to you and your player.

It ended worse.

Big game choker.

UCLA was a better team, but UNC deserved the game overall I thought. Playing at home was huge for UNC. Too bad UCLA or USC couldn’t trade a spot with Baylor

 

[abfool]

UCLA keeper looked very shaky against UNC. Just like against Stanford in the championship game, gave up a ridiculous goal. If she gets starts, does that mean that the other keepers in that team are just as or even more atrpcious?

Touch and technical skill are below average for a big time program but her combo of strength and speed are elite.

 

[socalkdg]

Mace looked good on defense for US team at concacaf when she got the start. Maybe off a bit for bruins on D but can still be great. Duel threat and she will be a top 5 pick in NWSL draft.

 

[socalkdg]

The real question is why switch keepers for penalty kicks.

Maybe in practice the other keeper has shown to be better at penalties.

Which makes her an average soccer player with college entrance likely based on UCLA's quota system.

You do know they are talking about Mace right
Kids gonna probably be the #1 pick in the NWSL draft

That’s funny. Who didn’t look good in that game for US? She didn’t have to do anything defensively or was in under no pressure offensively.
She’s an amazing athlete with strength and mentality. Technically or tactically not all that great. Perfect college player because most players in college can’t deal with someone like her. She could, or maybe should be a top pick in the NWSL draft, but that doesn’t mean she is going to be a great national team player. She will be solid in the NWSL as most teams don’t play much soccer, but I personally don’t think she will be a regular with the national team.

Minus the quota it applies to both.

I am beginning to think (or maybe hope) MAP and Pushup are two sides of one bipolar couple.

By the way, Prop 206, passed in 1996, prohibits any type of discrimination (including preferential treatment) based on race, sex, or ethnicity in admission to CA state schools. So leave the race based garbage at home, you are stinking up the place.

So was 187.
Do you know we live in the lawless state of Ca?
Sanctuary state, so please excuse me if I don't believe in "laws."
You people are too funny.
