Look for the small crowd of about 35 Pep supporters on the telecast.
Those are us.
We hope and pray we leave with a W.
Either way it will be memorable.

Or at least a POINT and a clean sheet
That would not be a bad result in Provo.

Funny that they are ahead of a team that beat them. I believe that I have a bottle of Don Julio 1942 because of that game. Don't start believing the rankings. Lot's of clear flaws if you have seen enough games. These last 3 weeks will tell the tale. Don't make it a short stay in the top 15....

Nice try but I only see one undefeated team on this. How about you? Let's see how things look on Monday. Let's not make the stay in the top 15 a short one. And let's hope that they get another shot at the team that the RPI says that they are better than. The boxscore tells a different story...

I'll make a prediction. I think this could be another WCC blowout.
If they continue to improve at every game like they have been, then I think it will be a pretty good game fo-sho
Are you talking about Pepp? The only team that beat Pepp that is ahead of them is Texas A&M. DePaul, well, that was just a bad day LOL
Are you talking about the Bruins? I thought they were undefeated. I'm confused. Also by the fact that an undefeated team is in the double digits in the RPI, but I'll leave that one to the math experts. I like the coaches poll for a reality check.

Even if it is you must look at the RPI strength of the remaining schedule to get an idea of where the Pepperdine RPI will be heading. Any slip ups will crush them and will put them in a pod with a powerhouse....

It doesn't take a math expert just somebody who can objectively look at the schedule. Here I will help you. Look at Pepperdine's schedule and notice the RPI's of their prior opponents and the RPI's of their upcoming opponents. Now do the same for the Bruins. You can try to imply whatever you want to but the truth will come out in the wash. I can't wait for the crash because it is coming....

The RPI is only going to be accurate once the regular season is over. I am going to REMIND YOU OF THIS POST SOON.....

So a team that beat Pepperdine is behind them. Curious. So are you saying that those are better results than being undefeated and having two draws where you outshot the teams a combined 40-19 (20-5 shots on goal)? I'm just curious.
No, that's not what I am saying. All RPI math aside, I was asking YOU a question. You said "Funny that they are ahead of a team that beat them." I then asked "Are you talking about PEPP? Or are you talking about the Bruins" No inferences there.

Lost to Kansas. Tied Utah. Lost to Washington. Lost to Washington State. Lost to Cal. Lost to Stanford. Lost to UCLA.
Those last few are predictions of the future. I like your new screen name by the way @surfrider . It's better and less obvious than @Swoosh . Keep trying. I rather enjoy how pathetic your team is looking right now. The question is if they will still make the tournament riding a 5 game losing streak. My call is no with that bubble zone RPI and no good wins on the resume.
With Keidane's scholarship management next year is going to be a disaster.....
It's complicated....

They are behind in the coaches poll, but ahead in RPI.
The first two games Pepperdine played were tune ups.
A&M was the better team then. Now, maybe not.
Its about peaking at the right time, and Pepperdine has been getting better progressively.
Im not one of the ranking people, but I like the way things are going.
This week in Provo is HUGE.
No excuses now, and no excuses later.
The winner calls the shots.
Shots dont count.
There was a game this year where the team lost 5-0, and the unnamed coach of said unnamed team made a big deal of how his (losing) team outshot the winning team.
He failed to mention that half of those shots took place when the (winning) team was already up 4-0.
Dont you owe the Driver on the weekend in AZ? Pretty sure you took a bet saying UCLA would come out of AZ with 6 points?????
