2018 D1 Women's Soccer Talk!!

[Swoosh]

Spin it how you will it still works out to UCLA winning 3 straight in the series and still dancing and the Trojans getting started on next season.

With two nattys to your one. Good luck vs. UNC.

Baylor is a bunch of hacks. USC would probably like another shot but ......

I'm just wondering if you noticed......all in good fun

Shocking that Baylor got this far in the tourney. They looked terrible against G-Town.

UCLA has something on this ref. 2 handballs and a reckless tackle from behind in the box in the first 30 minutes

I always wonder how the refs are supposed to call these slide tackles. The offensive player was clearly going in 1v1 vs. the keeper. #5 came in from behind with a slide tackle and cleared the ball first, then made contact with the offensive player second. According to the rules, is that a clean tackle or is the defender not allowed to make any contact? I’m asking because I’ve seen this play a thousand times it it would appear that there isn’t a foul if the defender makes contact with the ball first.

I agree. It looks aggressive because she’s coming from behind, but it was all on the ball first.

So it’s ok to break a kids legs as long as you get ball first? If it was from the side maybe but the player was clearly beat and made a desperate tackle denying obvious goal scoring opportunity

UCLA goalkeeping, always an adventure!

Not saying that, which is why I asked what the rule is.

West Coast bias.

Canadian Scenic View, I wonder what the charge is...

I was rooting for Lauren since she came in for the kicks.

I guess the committee got it right with all #1 seeds moving on

I wonder how often this happens?

Agreed. One would presume USC would've given Georgetown a better match as a 2 seed in that bracket.

Doesn't matter now of course, just tossing it out there.

 

[turftoe]

Congrats to the final 4

Stanford v Florida State
UNC v Georgetown

It was a great game.
The superior athleticism of NC matched against the better soccer players of UCLA.
I think the man made climate change may have helped had it been ten years ago when it was called global warming.
The new moniker is too cold, and doesn't lend itself to flash and soccer IQ.
It's more inclined to stifle creativity, and jump on the race horse's back.

I know I enjoyed the match, though. Both teams left everything on the field, and both are superb examples of what they bring respectively.
Im starting to miss this college game already.
Congrats to NC, and to UCLA.
Both teams were great.
