UNC Game Thread...

[Orangello]

If Duke wins, yes, UVa plays Brown. If UVa wins, Duke plays Brown. Play-in game.

So glad we dodged that. We need to get a win in the tourney and take care of business against Bingo and Gate.

 

[Delmar]

If UVa wins, Duke and UVa are both 1-3 with UVa holding the tie-breaker in winning the head-to-head competition.

Letting them get close in the third was troubling. Stopping the bleeding and finishing strong has to be a confidence booster moving forward. Eliminates the ugly narrative that they aren't capable of closing teams out with a lead.

Second half was an adventure but give this team credit for finally putting away a win especially in a must win game

 

[cuseguy]

Molloy and the defense were solid.

Offense, at least in the first half, did what it had to do.

 

[MSOrange]

Dang I missed another game. I keep forgetting to watch them on the computer this year. Oh well - at least they won. Maybe I better stay away now and keep the luck going.

 

[tbonezone]

good win today. we gotta play like piranhas from here on out. fight.fight.feed.and fight.

Agree. Good to see the D solid out there. Molloy looks like he's getting comfortable. Made some huge saves today. If Evans could just avoid the awful one-on-one turnovers, and the D plays like this the rest of the year, this team could make some noise. Lotta 'if's' there, though...

You are the anti-Obie/Headmaster.

Go buy a Hopkins hat.

ESPN 3 replay my friend

 

[cuseguy]

This team just needs to get in the tourney.

There's no dominate team this year.

If SU gets on a roll, Final 4 certainly within reach.

For tiebreaking purposes I wonder what the total goals allowed are for each team.

 

[Hoo's That]

1. Big win for you guys, great job!

2. The second tiebreaker is goals allowed among the teams that are tied. You'd have to be in a 3-way tie that I hope doesn't materialize.

Yup - win, and you're in. And even better, Duke is out. Good luck!

 

[OrangeXtreme]

And we're out of ND's bracket. Even better still.

 

[orange79]

And we're out of ND's bracket. Even better still.

Doesn't it depend on the outcome of the ND/UNC game next weekend?

 

[OrangeXtreme]

Doesn't it depend on the outcome of the ND/UNC game next weekend?

Only if ND loses.

 

[orange79]

Only if ND loses.

Well, yeah. Who wouldn't be rooting for that?

 

[wvlax]

For seeding purposes holding Carolina to 7 goals was big if that second tiebreaker (goals allowed) comes into play.
