2019 Women's D1 Soccer Talk!!!!

Haha yes thanks! Old brain. I also realized I didn’t mention mia fishel up top for UCLA. She is so talented and could be that physical dominating 9 for them. I like her game a lot.

Does UCLA have some injuries to freshman contributors? Or is there mega recruiting class this next year?
They have the number 1, 2020 recruiting class. I have seen many of them play and they are flat out studs, but that doesn't always seem to translate. Penn State has number 1 class this year with 4 or 5 studs and they are playing but PSU not great so far this year.
 
Wow. Another MAP homer. And what is all this crap about an old and new MAP. He threatened to beat me up a page ago. What a bunch of blather. Here are the facts. The mitch has picked the kneelers to win the natty three years in a row. They have lost every year. Their left back chokes under pressure. They wont even get there this year. Karma is b-e-a-u-t-i-f-u-l.
That's because your a douche, stop talking shit about these young athletes. Pick your fight with MAP, leave his daughter out of it.
 
If Portland wants to be in the conversation they have to beat Pepperdine, no small feat in their house.
The reality is if any of these teams want to make the tournament outside of BYU and Santa Clara, they are going to have to win the conference title and get the auto bid. That will require a run of the table with no losses and probably no ties. No easy task.
 
Also, getting admitted into UCLA is "winning" for many of the 30+YNT players. UCLA is the hardest school to get into according to many. Some committ as Fr and Soph in HS and try not to get hurt for three years. Then they show up and can't get into the game. Not sure how you can get better if you don't play that much. I like FSU with 21 players. No excuses for anyone playing D1 at UCLA. MJ played with 103 and made it happen. If you're injured, please don't "choose" to play through when you have 18+ YNT on the bench ready to have impact. BTW, very nice goal ur dd had the other day :)
Not a lot of YNT players on mid major teams last time I checked so players On those teams just have to push through whatever adversity they are facing.

Thank you for recognizing my DDs goal however, she was just on the back end of a beautiful counterattack and some excellent passing from her teammates. One of the best sequences I’ve seen from our squad all year. Hopefully more to come ;-)

I have a friend who teaches there. Great coach, great school and awesome location. Not for my dd but I would have been proud if she went there to play soccer or just study :)

Yes, there are some stud athletes, but even if you consider TopDrawer rankings a fair arbiter, a large number of the players in the very impressive 2020 UCLA recruiting class are not accustomed to the style of soccer that UCLA has played under AC. They have played a more "athletic" style. Some will adapt and thrive. But I expect that large class might, in part, reflect AC both taking some risks and hedging her bets that not all will be impact players in her system (and/or against PAC-12 level competition). Just one theory.
 
If you compare MAP’s reaction to trolls this year vs. last year, you can clearly see his response is better. Sure he threatened to beat you up but every man has his limits and you got exactly the response you were looking for.

I’ve met the man and had a few cold ones with him and he’s a good dude in person and just passionate about the sport and his daughter and her team. What do you expect?
Have you seen his criminal record? Getting in a fight at his dd’s 6th grade graduation. Absolutely amazing!

There you go. Making the snowflakes upset with a fact. How dare you!

Dont forget assaulting a grandmother in a wheelchair. Has anyone tried to get that mugshot? We all know how well rehabilitation works with criminals. Ha ha.
 
I think @MakeAPlay is practicing great emotional intelligence and waiting a few days to process things before commenting. I am confident we’ll eventually hear from him and he’ll have some well thought out insight on the match.

Yeah, it sucks to lose, especially in the conference opener and especially to Cal but UCLA’s season is far from over. No matter what happens from here on out, they’ll be in the dance and make some noise. As we all know, it’s not how you start but how you finish.
The words, MAP and emotional intelligence, together constitute an oxymoron.

If emotional intelligence is an oxy-, then MAP is a _____
 
The old MAP might have made excuses but I’m going to bet that the new MAP will probably be honest in his assessment. I definitely see an effort on his part to try and keep it positive.

He also watches a ton of women’s college soccer and has some great insight into other teams and players that as a novice of the game, I appreciate.
He’s a bully who impersonated as a woman on this board so Dominic wouldn’t throw him out. It will be nice when his kid graduates...hopefully he can embarrass her in her other endeavors. UCLA is full of him...time to move on. Parents on that team can’t stand being around him or his loud mouth wife #2.

And let’s not forget that before this site crashed, he threatened Devon??? with his size 13 up his a#$. A threat I thought was very real and started a conversation with Dom in which he insulted Dom’s family and DID in fact get him thrown off the site.

Maybe he can find a golf forum to embarrass his son (that’s his sport right ?)

I could not agree more with the term Bully”. That is exactly what he is. I may seem harass at times but it is only because I refuse to let bully’s intimidate people.
 
Back to what’s coming....

Thursday:

Oregon at Colorado
Oregon State at Utah

UCLA at Arizona
USC at Arizona State

Washington State at Stanford
Washington at Cal

Saturday:

BYU at Santa Clara
Portland at Pepperdine
San Francisco at St. Mary’s
San Diego at Gonzaga
Pacific at LMU

Thursday
Long Beach State at Cal Poly
UC Davis at Fullerton
Riverside at Irvine
CSUN at Hawaii

The Pac-12 Games are, for early in the season of conference play, super important in setting a lot of these teams on the course of finishing higher in the standings and getting into the NCAA… For example, the Oregon and Colorado game, Colorado had a very good preseason And will be off to a great conference start if they get this win, however Oregon also had a good preseason, but dropped their game Thursday at Washington (they had chances to get that one) and really needs this game to get back on course to where they want to go.

Huge game for Pepperdine and Portland, Pepperdine has two incredibly impressive preseason wins, along with a couple of head scratcher losses… Perhaps this game points a little bit into which way they end up going…

Clearly the BYU Santa Clara game is a monster for them… And Washington State has a big chance to make a statement against Stanford...

Obviously there are other big games listed above, but these are just a few that caught my eye.

Yeah lots of pivotal matchups this weekend. The Pepp loss to SLO is the nail in our RPI coffin. Pepp has Portland Saturday followed by BYU in Provo the following Wednesday. Pepp has to run the table and win the conference championship to get the auto bid or we’ll be on the outside looking in for a second straight year.

Like Pepp, Santa Clara has been inconsistent but they always bring their best come conference season. The two teams that won’t be in the title hunt but can absolutely ruin somebody else chances are Portland and USF. They’ve both had some huge wins against top 25 teams so definitely cannot sleep on them.
 
MAP wont show his bitch azz face to this forum until the kneelers win again and he can tell us how good they are. BTW, his DD got lit up.


Call me then pussy . 760-249-2798. You clearly didn't see my kid's InStat numbers because she was 6th in the rankings. Call me bitch.
 
I mentioned a while back - more than once - that Cal would be different this year because they have an elite gk (which means everyone plays better - more confident, can take more chances). Add a year of maturity to the Jrs and they can compete with anyone. The only question I had after non-league was whether the relatively weak schedule would have them ready. Well, I think that was answered. UCLA is going to blow out most teams if they get 17 corners but Cal’s D shut down the shooting lanes and they knew they could take chances because AA had their backs.

Both of Cal's goals were on errors and InStat reflects that. No need to explain it but I would bet anyone who wants to lose money that UCLA will go much farther than Cal in the tournament. No worries.
 
Some of you maggots must really have no life. If you want to talk shit about me. Say it directly to me and find out what will happen. 760-249-2798.

Call me or keep looking like a bitch.
