Women's Futbol vs Notre Dame

[Maroon Pug]

15 minutes in and ND has controlled possession and seems like we are playing on our heels a little bit. Gotta catch the ND backline creeping up and kick it over their heads IMHO.

 

[Maroon Pug]

Got lucky with an offsides call on ND. Gotta tighten up.

 

[Dawgg]

This ref sucks.

 

[civildawg88]

ND the aggressor so far. Ladies playing pretty passive

 

[Maroon Pug]

17... ND up 1-0.

 

[civildawg88]

Just can't keep the ball on our side of the field

 

[Dawgg]

Welp. It was fun while it lasted. The way we’re playing and with the refs giving them the benefit of the fouls, we’ll be lucky not to get blown out.

 

[BulldogBlitz]

Game. Season done. Incremental improvements though.

 

[Dawgg]

We gotta get Loposer out of there.

 

[civildawg88]

The only way we can score is if we get lucky, ND looks much better than us

 

[Crossroaddawg]

I’ve been to a handful of games this season and the Irish are by and far the best team I’ve seen step foot inside the pitch here in Starkville.

 

[Maroon Pug]

Such a BS foul call on Perry

 

[MSF87]

This is just a different level from anyone in the SEC.

 

[kired]

Payback for baseball

 

[FlotownDawg]

The SEC just isn’t an incredibly strong soccer conference. The level of soccer played in the ACC is head and shoulders above the SEC.

 

[Podgy]

Started watching with 10 minutes left. ND looks so much better

 

[karlchilders.sixpack]

Half... 2 to 0, ND.

 

[BulldogBlitz]

Canceled our Cary reservations

 

[Maroon Pug]

We look tired tbh. And ND's passing has been really crisp.

 

[Dawgg]

We’re just 17ing built to suffer, aren’t we?

ACC soccer is just a different level of competition. SEC has 5 College Cup (final four) appearances. ACC has 83. It was a great season.

ACC soccer is just a different level of competition. SEC has 5 College Cup (final four) appearances. ACC has over 80. It was a great season.

Yeah, ACC is cleaning house today:
UNC beat Minnesota
Wake beat Ohio State
Duke is beating Michigan State
ND is beating us

ACC tournament was tougher than the NCAA tournament up until the College Cup. Stanford will probably beat Arkansas to give them 5 of the last 8. College Cup could easily be 4 ACC teams.

And Stanford didn’t even qualify for the ACC tourney.

ETA: Arkansas is up 1-0 early.

 

[karlchilders.sixpack]

Hail State, great Season.

 

[MSF87]

A big thank you to this team for making this Fall much more bearable for a Bulldog fan. Already looking forward to 2025.

Exactly! What a Godsend this team and their season has been.

 

[Duggar Hall Desk]

ACC schools take soccer very seriously.

Agree. Can't say I'm a big soccer guy but it's been fun to head down to "the pitch" this year. Thanks as well to the soccer folks on here for running the threads and keeping us novices up to speed on things.

I will say it wasn't for lack of support tonight. I made the run down for a bit of the first half and the place was packed and stacked like I've never seen. Just ran into what seems is the ACC buzz saw.

FWIW and my 2 cents, James Armstrong is both a good coach and a pretty cool guy as well.

On to Basketball.

 

[FlotownDawg]

Six of the final eight teams are ACC teams. The conference is stacked this year. Very possible if not probable that the final four will be an all ACC affair.
