2016-17 D1 Women's soccer thread!!!

Alright, 1 game into the 4 game set, I still think they'll find the back of the net once, but a win is looking pretty doubtful.

We will see. I will tell you that all of the players for the Cali schools have heard the announcers talking up Colorado. Their best bet was catching them by surprise. The PAC 12 has 4 legitimate potential elite eight teams that want home games in the first 3 rounds. They are taking them as seriously as a heart attack and are going to come out swinging. If they go down early to any of them it's going to be tough to come back. All 4 teams have smart, well prepared and veteran coaching staffs. It's going to be fun down the stretch.

Bernie, how did your daughter do yesterday?

Bernie, how did your daughter do yesterday?

She played well.
The team played well.
They won.
I think they took their foot off the gas a little after going up 2-0, and let Santa Clara back in the game with some lazy defense, but got right back to it, and shut them down the rest of the game.
I went back and watched the offside call, and the player called off never touched the ball. It did look as if the scoring player may have been a step off, but the camera angle is deceptive, and the AR was right on it and let it play out.
Didnt affect the outcome of the game, so who cares.
Big game tomorrow against San Francisco. San Francisco looked dangerous against LMU.

Nice, did Lion make it?

Yes looks like German Sonja Giraud is back from her injury at San Fran. Watch out for her!

I was flying back to SoCal yesterday...did not see the game.
Santa Clara is always tough, great win for the Waves
I'll be in the Bu tomorrow to watch the SF game. Gonna a be a beautiful day at Pepperdine.
Roll Waves!

Well said. One of the huge differences between the big 4 and the rest of the conference. Coaching!!

This was evident in the Stanf/Colorado game.

IMO, the big four are successful because of the following.
1. They are in California
2. All 4 schools are ranked in the top 25 in college academic rankings
3. They get the YNT pick of the litter
4. They have successful winning programs

So swung and missed on Colorado vs. Stanford. I really thought they would at least score on the Cardinal. Given Cal's performance against Utah, I am going out on a limb once again and predicting they will score against Cal. I hope for Cal's sake, they wake up for this one but I am still not a believer in Cal.

Yep. Cal is officially ready for their annual first round exit from the NCAAs.

Nearly doubled up Colorado in every statistical category and had nothing to show for it for 87 minutes. Down 0-2 in the 88th minute, they score 2 goals in less than a minute to send it into OT. Colorado somehow pulls off the miracle goal in OT to win.

Bernie is dancing down PCH right now with his DD's Waves firmly in control of the WCC title and MAP's wine on its way.

Call me crazy but could Colorodo win the Pac12 title??? I know they've got UCLA & USC up next but given these matches are at home, will the altitude be a factor for both?

Wild season! The NCAA title could literally go to anybody in the top 25 at this point.

The Buffs keeper is a beast. MVP imo.

Waves over SF 1-0 today.
It was a nice win, not really unexpected...
SF plays some nice soccer - triangle - overlap - and some burners up top.
Waves looked in control.
Bernies dd had a very nice showing.

 

[Lion Eyes]

Santa Clara over LMU today 2-1 OT

 

[SpeedK1llz]

Santa Clara over LMU today 2-1 OT

This means Pepperdine only has to win one of their next two against LMU or Pacific and they win the WCC title.

 

[Lorrenna Bobbitt]

One down and 3 to go. Colorado is going to be facing a focused Cal squad on Sunday. i still think that Colorado goes 0-5 or 0-4-1 in it's last 5 games. They will still get in the dance though and might even get a first round home game.

I guess this post (and others) demonstrates how much you know about college soccer. Not much. Go buffs!

 

[goldentoe]

If they score against any of the remaining Cali schools, it will probably come from a header flick forward or header goal by TK.

You called it, but I bet you didn't think it would be a game winner...... on the road....at CAL!!!

Not sure how much you've seen her play, but she's about as technical as they come also. She's a young freshman that'll just continue getting better.

I've seen her play a lot. She is a good player.

I'm familiar with TK, my DD has played against her a few times.

I will bet all of MessiFtw/Loreena Bobbitt/clarino/sheriff Joe's craziness that Colorado doesn't win it. Cal's mysterious collapse is news to me but apparently it is not for you. I can tell you that the real upsets will happen if they get it done next weekend.

Congrats Bernie. I will PM you to make arrangements for you to receive payment.

I don't really think they'll win but just wondering what effect the altitude will have on both UCLA & USC.

Stanford and Cal have to play each other and it would be very Calesque of them to come back and beat Stanford so it could open things up for USC or UCLA, which could make their matchup for the PAC 12 championship.
