2018 D1 Women's Soccer Talk!!

Choker. Three years in a row. All the coaches know. Just isolate her 1 v 1 and it will happen.

Happy to see the kneelers lose. Maybe it is time to play the beautiful game absent the political statements. Karma is a bitch.

UCLA goalkeeping, always an adventure!

Absolutely horrible all game. Second goal stemmed from her failure to catch the ball. I’ve been meaning to go on the goalkeeper forum to ruffle some feathers, but those “clean sheet” and “goals against allowed” stats are absolutely meaningless, especially for keepers on top teams because they are rarely meaningfully challenged.

Shoot, I still don’t know how good Hope Solo is or was, I saw her make like 3 saves in 10 years. And don’t get me started on the dives for balls 10 yards wide of the post or the dive for a ball 2 feet to either side. But, but, but that’s how they train them! Exactly, trainers are a bunch of idiots who never played other sports, especially baseball.

Dumb ass, there’s kneelers on at least 2 of the remaining teams.

Have you divested your portfolio of all clean energy stocks, because it’s all a hoax remember? You know I’ll make it simple for you, we’ll simply put your name on a list of “hoax” believers and you’ll just be last on the list to get any help from 1st responders, national disaster assistance, etc.

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.

You think the global use of carbon had a negative impact on this game for UCLA??? The field was in awesome shape with the weather they have experienced this week, especially compared to the Georgetown field. Field conditions had a minimal impact on the game. I think Super Hot or Super muddy is an impact, but somewhat cold is not. I bet UCLA is not whining about the field conditions.

Agreee!! Fun game to watch as both teams had good games and played well enough to win. I hate kicks from the mark and wish they would just keep playing until someone wins.

Pks suck...but I remember this game from 1985....it went 167 minutes until UCLA won the men’s final against American. Maybe after this they changed the rule for college soccer.

Quick quiz. What team left in the final 8 hasn’t given up a goal in the entire tournament.

Quick quiz, how many goals did UCLA surrender against the College Cup teams?
9 goals - 4 against FSU, 3 against Stanford, 2 against North Carolina.

scoring 15-0 against playoff patsies is one thing, surrendering 9 goals against 3 College Cup teams is another. This is the reason why UCLA is not College Cup material.

Reality hurts

First responders don't believe this junk science either.
 
MAP racking up the airline refunds on canceled tickets for "guaranteed trips" he told us he would be taking. First the France ticket and now this one?
Gonna make for a nice little vacation somewhere for the whole family.

I thought it looked cold, thats all.
You people have no sense of humor.

I thought it was a great game, and the conditions, (cold and shivery) favored the athleticism over the superior skill.
UCLA played with tremendous determination to come back from two down in the second half, and had some shining moments in the second half where their talent was on full display.
It was really fun to watch.
NC has to be one of the most athletic teams top to bottom that I have seen. To make a very athletic team like UCLA look a step slow was very impressive to me.
I mean just straight up race horses.

Im really gonna miss this.
Even the parts where I have to explain to you people what is supposed to be funny, but ends up being unfunny because its not funny explaining how something was funny but isnt now.

Nah, I don’t think so. It wasn’t funny and it was certainly a little dig, not huge, but definitely a little dig. Are you guys still slobbering all over each other in the”off-topic” forum? It’s a different world up here.
