The Santa Clara result shocked me as well. I really thought Long Beach was the better team this year. That said, I do think Santa Clara vs. Stanford has upset potential written all over it. Santa Clara played them tough earlier this year.

I wasnt gonna say anything, but the way Santa Clara holds the ball, they can play with anyone.
I doubt Stanford will look past them.

The Big West was weak this year, I wasn't surprised. Santa Clara played in a tougher conference.

Of course you are, who wants to play Stanford in the Sweet 16 with Andi Sullivan back from national team duty.

Whichever team wins will be a hand full for whoever gets them next. Of course Stanford is the favorite, but SC just beat a very dangerous LB team 3-0!
I'm sure Pepperdine is focused on NC State, as they just beat a very good Minnesota team.
No room to look past anyone now.

I watched this one and Long Beach dominated large stretches of the game. Big mistake early in the back, then Santa Clara scored agains the run of play with about 20 to go, then LB pushed numbers forward and conceded the last one. Santa Clara held well which makes me think that Stanford will have to score to make the broncos chase the game, otherwise they could pull the upset or get it to PKs (where they will lose, no comparison with the GKs).

I love Jerry putting all the pressure on Stanford, repeatedly mentioning how they are the number one seed during his post game interview. I don't think Stanford likes this game, so much to lose for the Cards.

I didn't forget. All Santa Clara needs to do is keep it tied and get to PKs where we know that anything can happen...

Yes anything can happen, but big difference in goalkeepers.

Great match up for Pepperdine vs NC State having to travel across the country.

Stanford 2-0
Pepp 2-1

What are the stakes? Obscure brands? My all time favorite brew is Molson Canadian. It has gone from difficult to impossible to find in CA. Other challenging brands to procure are Yuengling, Hudepohl, Burger, and RhineGeist beers. Not expensive, but just a pain in the ass to find. I would take a sixer from any of these brands. What are your stakes?

So you really think that Stanford is worried about Santa Clara when they are 10-1-1 against them since 2007 and have played them at least once a year since then? Interesting. I think $C has more to worry about with Texas A&M and Florida St. this weekend Santa Clara took care of a dangerous Long Beach St. team and Pepperdine took care of their rivals. Stanford's road forward looks pretty good to me.

You live just north of the the micro-brew capital of the world and you crave skunk beer (green bottles are bad)?

Nailed it Outside! I was trying to put similar thoughts into words and just couldn't do it. We even have some nice brews up here in Nor Cal. Nothing quite like San Diego but we've got Drakes, 21st Amendment, Bear Republic, Russian River to name a few. Molson? I think the scarcity is a direct result of lack of demand not scarcity...
