Oh without a doubt...
Did you see the officials wiff on a too-many-men by G'Town? Had 8 defenders for like 15 seconds and then just ran a guy off and they completely missed it.
Welp, UVA took care of business.... Rooting interests tonight:
Detroit > Monmouth (not super important)
Denver > Marquette (vital)
Hofstra > UMass (not super important)
Ohio St > JHU (duh)
Albany > UML (vital)
Towson > Delaware (not super important)
Jacksonville> HPU (not super important)...
The storm totally wrecked our scheduling up here... I work basically every day for the next forever...

I think I agree with most of what you said there. I think Cuse will whip Colgate, but Virginia is so up and down... maybe that's the boost we need. It's too bad though, cause a straight Cuse loss gets us over them no matter what. Virginia is the one where all the other crap needs to happen to...
So I played with the predictor: http://www.insidelacrosse.com/league/DI/calendar
Here's what I found:
- We are pretty much stuck at 12 except for a very few number of results (I can't include championship games yet... so don't know how that would factor in). And that's if we win over Hopkins...
I think we beat Hop, we are in. Here is what we are rooting for:
1) A second matchup with Maryland. Rutgers is now a bubble team, one that we have a H2H over, but still a bubble team. No reason to give them a good win.
2) Denver wins the Big East. While I would love for the Marquette loss...
About damn time they put together a complete game...
We are firmly on the bubble now. The Marquette loss is like an albatross right now, really coulda used that and the ND game (hell... the Towson game too... ugh OT losses suck). If we were 9-4 right now instead of 7-6, I think we would need...
This is definitely a possible factor. We just seemed to bleed goals for sections of the game. Looks like a lot of goals from middies. This will have to be fixed before B1G play... too any talent offensive middies in this league that will tear us apart.
Seems we've had a switch at the faceoff...
Jacksonville isn't BAD... but that is not a team we should be going to OT with. I'll have to find a way to watch a replay (I was on the road during the game and was following on twitter) to see where the breakdowns were.
Hopefully this is a big learning lesson without dropping a harmful OOC match.
A solid start. Shake the rust off. Got some good film for the defense/keepers to look at to shore up some weaknesses. This team will try and out-score people. If the back end can limit the damage, they have potential to make another run.
Replacing Carey, as a former keeper I may be biased...
Defense picked it up... Withers crumbled and the offense didn't find their groove until 4 minutes left in the game.
Great season gentlemen. Sometimes you just are in the way of another team's destiny. We'll get there.
1st half thoughts...
- Offense is a dumpster fire again. No off-ball movement. Hero-ball. No picks or two-man game. Forcing passes into the crease.
- Carey is playing just fine. Nothing to be worried about.
- Withers at the dot is fine at the moment. A bit better play from the wings.
-...
Some general thoughts...
- Worst 1st half I've seen from this program in recent memory. Forcing EVERYTHING on offense and just no urgency to halt Towson possessions. Add in a mediocre outing at the dot (especially by the wingers... way too many extended FOs that went to Towson) and you have...
Can't review after the goal is signaled. They didn't signal anything on the 2nd call. They just killed play. You can review when that happens.
At least that is my understanding. I've never worked a game with that sort of technical capabilities...
So that win probably locks us up at top 8 seed... Do we get a top 4 seed with a win tomorrow? I think so. Sweep the season against MD plus our other wins and zero bad losses?
Elsewhere in lax world, did anyone see the ending of the Hofstra/UMass game? Bud stealer out of the CAA due to a...
