Boaz is a great keeper. She gave up one goal against the #2 team on the road. The SOGs differential was 6-1 but through our first several matches our defense has been stellar. BYU had not given up a goal in the regular season and in every match had won the SOG differential. Also, #9 is hot but runs with a funny gait and her fists clenched. This team is every bit as good if not better than the one that went to the elite 8. We should win the WCC again pretty handily. Can't wait for Thursday night against Utah state at South Field. For those that haven't been to one, go check it out. The field is beautiful and the crowds are always raucous. Also, a very inexpensive outing so great as a daddy date, for example, or for those that fly southwest.

What are they doing to correct the problem of using the mids on attack? Against Stanford for much of the game, they did not keep possession very well until the last fifteen minutes. I also noticed for the very first time, that there doesn't appear to be stoppage time in the college game. Why is that?"Guitar groups are on their way out, Mr Epstein."
Upon rejecting the Beatles, Dick Rowe told Brian Epstein of the January 1, 1962 audition for Decca, which signed Brian Poole and the Tremeloes instead.

I'm choosing to mostly ignore your fatuity here and instead overwhelm you with so much data that you'll maybe, just maybe, realize that you have reams to read on this subject before you can contribute meaningfully to any conversation on this topic.

Colorado is also playing well right now against everyone else and is another team we beat pretty easily.Last edited by BlueK; 09-08-2015, 10:37 AM.

Originally posted by BlueK View PostThis hasn't been a problem against anyone this season except Stanford. Elena Medeiros has been a very strong attacking midfielder in every other game this season, including against a Cal team that hasn't lost to anyone other than us and has beaten powerhouse Duke so far and tied perennial uber powerhouse N. Carolina. BYU seemed a little overwhelmed for much of the game but the last 15-20 minutes were much different and more representative of how they've played all season so far. We came just one cross bar hitting shot from tying the game.
BTW, what formation were they using?"Guitar groups are on their way out, Mr Epstein."

Originally posted by BlueK View PostTechnically I believe it's a 3-5-3, but Medeiros is one of the 5 midfielders and really seems to play like another forward. Murphy-Vasconcelos also plays both like a forward and midfielder. Hatch and Gomes are pure forwards. They often have the look of 4 forwards and 3 midfielders, IOW.
Which defender typically slides back on defense?
Who is the center back?
Who has the most technical skill, or are they relatively equal?
It sounded as if they were bobbling a lot of passes yesterday, but I couldn't see the pressure Stanford applied.
Do you believe they learned something from their passive, sloppy play in the first 75 minutes?"Guitar groups are on their way out, Mr Epstein."

Your other questions kind of stretch my knowledge. BYU does have a lot of speed. I'm going to guess Stanford was the only team we've faced this year that matched or surpassed it. BYU definitely looked faster than the others I've seen them play against. Cal, Colorado, Nebraska and Utah are all solid opponents. The next few aren't going to be nearly as good and BYU should wipe them all out. Campbell-Isom is the anchor of the defense and the most skilled. Calton is probably the speediest but also the youngest of the three starting defenders.

Originally posted by BlueK View PostI couldn't watch, so it's hard to know for sure, but having watched most of their other games, and hearing what happened at the end when it seemed they suddenly found another gear, I'm going to assume a lot of the problem for the first 70-75 minutes was mental at facing a team that was a step above the others, and on the road. Although, I'm not sure that Cal is that far below Stanford, but it was on a neutral field and BYU got an early goal in that one.

Originally posted by BlueK View PostWell, I need to correct myself. For some reason I had thought Campbell-Isom was a senior. She has played like it so far. Actually all three starting defenders are sophomores. BYU has had a couple of amazing recruiting classes recently. Also, RM Paige Hunt, a junior, plays a defending midfielder position. She has the funny distinction of having been named to the pre-season all WCC team when she was already gone on her mission. She's come home and played very well."Guitar groups are on their way out, Mr Epstein."
