Quote from: DagarmanSpartan on October 10, 2026, 08:19:35 PMWell, it'd be great if JCU could win the NCAC and make our tie look better.

GREAT bounce back win today.  Good to see that we continue to get shut outs!

Quote from: VASoccerDad on October 10, 2026, 02:20:27 PMBig win for CMU. And big Case win at WashU, 2-0.

This Case team is special.  Seems that the all the pieces are aligned.

Quote from: Earl2 on October 10, 2026, 11:42:59 AMI always look forward to the D3 Games of the week video.

Respectfully disagreeing with Simple Coach's prediction here though as an objective observer, I'll admit to having a slight (actually strong) bias toward the quality and composure of the defending national champions.

Sometime, this blind squirrel finds an acorn...

Quote from: Kuiper on October 10, 2026, 05:28:22 PMFINAL:  Pacific Lutheran 1 - Whitman 0

Lots of fouls and a tight game.  The Lutes pull it out on an 85th minute goal.  Home field may have been the advantage, so this just makes Pacific Lutheran's trip to Walla Walla to play Whitman on the last game of the regular season that much more important most likely.

Thought it was an ugly game with all the fouls and cards.  Kind of hard to watch and never seemed to have a flow.  Give the Lutes the game because I do think they were trying to get the game.

Quote from: Hopkins Walk-On on October 08, 2026, 10:59:13 AMI only saw the first half of the Hopkins game but they were awful. Zero shots. Salisbury spent the half on Hopkins side of the ball and peppered the box with corner kicks and throw-ins. One throw-in got through and was headed in. Based on the box score, Hopkins ramped it up in the 2nd half but it was too little, too late. They took 10 shots but only 2 were on goal.

Dreadful.

And here is the video where I convince EJay that this is the week I sweep and begin my long lonely climb to the  summit of the leaderboard.

By the by, if anyone who participates would like to join, I would love to get one of your perspectives on how you pick 'em.
