NCAA Soccer Championship - Tarheels vs 49ers


Niner National

Recommended Posts

Not really a good forum for this, so thought I'd put it here.

Kinda cool that both teams playing the championship are from NC. Charlotte is one of the better defensive teams in the nation and the Tarheels are one of the best offensive teams in the nation.

Should be a fun game to watch. I'm not a soccer fan by any means, but I was on the edge of my seat for both games tonight.

Exciting game, badly officiated. Lots of cards that should have been given out to Charlotte and a horribly blown no call that should have resulted in PKs for Charlotte.

It was an entertaining run and I loved the fact that the Charlotte fans drowned out and celebration of the Tarheel team. Our team and our fans represented well, we just couldn't put the ball in the net.

We have most of our starters returning, but we do lose 3 critical starters including one first team all american. At least our leading scorer was only a freshman. This run, and that kind of fan support, will do nothing but help recruiting going forward.

The refs really did blow it. 2 inside the box penalties missed for Charlotte(likely at least one goal) and one penalty just outside the box for Carolina. A great one timer from 30 yards for the Carolina forward though, not taking anything away from him.

All in all a fun game to watch. Not too disappointed in a loss as we were playing with house money after beating Akron imo.

    • Basically agree.  He is the one of that bunch that offers upgraded pass catching along with he is supposed to be kind of special.   Then you have the OL and the ideas that if they perform you can have JAG backs and still do well. So okay we could be fine.  But Brooks is important and to me that receiving element sets him apart.  So there sure is something riding on him.     What strikes me as incongruent is people over in Atlanta or those that follow them look at Penix with a third surgery and act like it is no big deal.      And we are on pins and needles over Brooks.  Either they should worry a lot more or we should worry a lot less.  
    • I usually go a game or two optimist over the consensus here but this is too early for me to say. I need to see some players on the field.  I am not feeling real optimistic though.  
    • Okay as a ‘take CJ’ fan I actually don’t obsess over CJ and Houston, contrary to the narrative.  But I thought I picked up some noise that his OL left a lot to be desired.    Not a single Beyce supporter would judge him harshly if he had a crappy OL. We all know that.    So be fair about it.  A QB needs to be protected.  Especially a guy that gets to his spot and wants to finish the play from there. Which CJ is.
