2023 WF Soccer Thread - NCAA Tourney 2nd Round - Hoosiers Visit Spry 5 pm Sunday ESPN+

[ChrisL68]

Ladies deacs with a terribad tie at home against winless BC. Second time in the last couple weeks they’ve given points away against bottom of conference opponents.

BC and Syracuse are a combined 0-13-3 in the ACC and 0-0-2 against us.

What is permitted on the Hill this year? Outside alcohol?

 

[IAppreciateIt]

deacs!

 

[timdunkandthefunk]

Incredible effort by the ND keeper on that goal. Doesn’t mattter, go Deacs.

 

[DeacInVermont]

Deacs have had the better scoring chances, so it's nice to see one sneak in.

 

[cheeseheads12]

Finish these Irish bitches off deacs!

 

[timdunkandthefunk]

Well shit.

 

[wufu bufu]

That was some bullshit

 

[cheeseheads12]

Shoot that fucking purple people eater!

 

[jc13890]

Fuck that ref. Fuck notre dame. #5 should get his ass kicked.

 

[cheeseheads12]

Take purple people eater out back and shoot him please.

 

[wufu bufu]

Refs hand ND the tie. Must be nice.

 

[IAppreciateIt]

lame.

we look good tho, my first time watching this season

 

[CreamyGoodness]

THAT was frustrating

 

[Demonbeck]

That was some bullshit. Ref was way over his head, but is definitely getting prime seats at mass on Sunday.

 

[myDeaconmyhand]

That was bullshit

 

[cheeseheads12]

God help us if we see that little fat fucker ref one of our games in the postseason.

 

[BacktoBack]

An absolute trash foul call to give ND a free kick. The finish on the free kick was fantastic. But it was never a foul to start with. We outplayed them. But hate losing one late on such a really poor decision from the referee

Soccer Update:

The Men

The #3 WF men (11-1-4; 4-1-2) play the regular season finale at L'ville (9-4-2; 2-4-1) on Friday at 7pm (ACCN+).

With a win, WF secures the Atlantic Division title (WF can also win the division if Clemson loses against NC State; WF can finish no worse than #2 in the Atlantic Standings regardless of the remaining game outcomes). Even though WF is ranked #3 in the United Soccer Coaches Poll (WV moved up to #1 after beating Marshall; Marshall dropped to #6), the NCAA selection committee slotted WF at #7 in the pre-NCAAT rankings (Notre Dame, who was gifted a tie last week, is #3). Not sure of the committee's thinking when it downgraded the Deacs. This is significant as the top 4 seeds will have homefield until the College Cup Final 4.

The Women

The WF women (9-2-5; 3-2-4) play their last regular season game at Miami (3-9-3; 2-6-1) tomorrow (Thursday) on ACCN.

The WF ladies are currently 6th in the ACC standings; one point ahead of VT .

Why is that significant? Because only six women's teams make the ACC Tournament (which is curious given that the ACC Mens' tournament has 12 entrants; seems weird that the two tournaments operate under different rules). So, WF could drop out of the tournament with a loss or tie to Miami, if VT beats Pitt.

Hoping our Deacs secure key road wins to finish the season.
