Ha ha. You are funny. Sure looked one sided to me. My kid guaranteed a win, played like a boss and delivered. I am still waiting for you to post concrete facts to back up your statements.....

Really? You thought it was one sided? I thought last night was a pretty good indication of what I stated no? USC could’ve scored 4 or 5 easy just as UCLA could’ve scored as much.
In our household we mainly watch Big 1o games since DD will be playing in that conference next year. Watched our first Pac 12 game of the season last night and I have to say MAP's DD balled out. My DD is a forward so we spend most of the games we watch focused on the defense. Without #5 I would have to agree with sirfootyalot that SC would have put 2 or 3 more goals in. Her timing and positioning was spot on in denying SC's chances in their attack. Say what you want about MAP but his DD can play.
Being this was our first time seeing these two teams play and reading the back and forth here about SC playing direct, I thought SC controlled the first half and missed opportunities to add to their halftime lead. IMO the 2 key moments in the 2nd half that sparked UCLA to victory was AC's decision to move HM up and the missed PK. You could see the energy the miss gave UCLA. I was actually rooting for #13 to hit the game winner to make up for the miss because I'm sure the pressure felt enormous. Overall it was a great game to watch between two very talented teams and good luck to those who make the tournament.

Great game, SC sure looked very relaxed on the ball and UCLA looks like they got some favoroable bounces. The skill players on UCLA stood out.
MAP's kid is pretty cool under fire, no idea where she gets that.
What did everyone think of the CR?

Watched this game this morning. Both sides had the run of play at times. Quality goals up until the game winner which looked to be a communication breakdown on d. Feel horrible for the kid on the PK miss. The Mace goal was every bit as good of a goal as Macarios. I don’t think it was savanle by any men’s professional keeper. Pure Cracker
USC lost this game by not converting on the PK, and by not defending a kickoff in the 86th minute. Hard to believe either of those two things didn't go their way. Our sport is cruel but also beautiful like that.
UCLA won this game by an amazing mental resolve to respond in big moments. They also got better as the game progressed. Also kudos to the staff for throwing Mace up top. Almost cost them as their Canadian left back fouled for the PK, but they needed to make that change.
MAP's kid dominated Pruitt.
Fun to watch Demelo, Hocking, Mace, Villacorta, Fleming, and Sanchez on offense.
Fans got their money's worth!

Does his mean Pep is in?
Their RPI is projected to drop to 47.
Its up to the committee what they consider, and if they take three from the WCC.
Pepperdine has found their form, I just hope its not too late.

They will get in. Surprisingly it might be the fact that two of their losses were to UCLA and those other guys. I just hope that they get in a different bracket than my kid’s team. I would love to cheer for them to win their group.

An ASU loss would help Pepp. Stanford needs to beat them to hold on to their #1 seed in the west.
San Jose State wins mtn west qualifier. Very tough opponent for any pac-12 school.

I hope Chris is correct.....

Well, I did my best. Seeding looks to be volatile this year, with some weird first round matchups likely thanks to a glut of ACC and SEC teams.
In College Cup for these brackets, Stanford Quadrant winner would play Georgetown Quadrant winner, with Florida State Quadrant winner playing North Carolina Quadrant winner.
