Season opened with a 5-0 W over Lipscomb. Host UNC and Florida next Thursday and Sunday. 

[YGIFS 19450]

Only went to one match last season with the girls and showed up right at the start.  

What time do the gates at Myers open up usually?  Wanna take them to UNC tomorrow---obviously?  Wanna get them in there (they're young), watch warmups, get 'em their snacks and pottie breaks so we can watch first half comfortably then get 'em home for bed?  THANKS AND HOOK EM

Copy that.  Thank you.  See you there.  

[perfectchaos007 6643]

We have never beaten UNC in soccer, and they come in ranked #1 in the nation. A draw would be a great result

I’m in Costa Rica so you won’t lol

I literally know a guy if you get into a jam down there.  He got me out of a serious situation a few years back.

You traveled all the way to Costa Rica to watch Trinity Byars play in the U20 World Cup tournament. You’re a dedicated Texas soccer fan 

[perfectchaos007 6643]

A UNC goal has felt inevitable for the first 45 minutes with all of their close range opportunities and dominant possession. Somehow still 0-0 at halftime. Texas has had a couple of opportunities on counter attacks but thats about it. The middles for UNC are probably the best in the nation from what I see. They control passes and possess beautifully 

Edited August 26, 2022 by perfectchaos007

[perfectchaos007 6643]

UNC was just as dominant in the 2nd half, but they were able to score a couple of chances this time. UNC wins 2-0. I'm beyond ready for the Angela Kelly era to end. 

[someguy 1508]

that could have easily been 5-0 or 6-0.

Literally?

[YGIFS 19450]

Upon talking to him again, it's just a figurative relationship.  Based on a simile.  I need more foundational relationships in my life.  Metaphorically speaking, of course. 

But I really did once get out of a massive jam in Costa Rica.  Like I coulda died in their prison system had it not been for this guy.

Brooks doesn’t seem very good.

2-2 at halftime against a bad Florida team. 

[ClubWhatever 12144]

Florida with an own goal to put Texas up 1

[perfectchaos007 6643]

3-2 Texas final. Too bad Byars didn't get the credit for the winning goal as it deflected off the UF player

[perfectchaos007 6643]

1-1 draw against a bad Oregon team tonight. Good job coach

[perfectchaos007 6643]

3-2 Texas over Gonzaga. Texas was down 2-0 in the 2nd half before coming back

I hope that TCU guy is already house hunting.  Because JFC, she just sucks so bad. 

[ClubWhatever 12144]

I am not a big soccer fan, but it looks to me like we pass/handle the ball a lot better this year and have a little more speed.  We don't give away as many possessions with stupid and lazy passes.  Our transition defense still seems like it sucks though.

[Rickylovesweed 14317]

I don't follow soccer but how are we ranked #23 in the country?

we won tonight 2-1. Now a sizzling  4-1-1

I looked at the records of teams in the top 25 and it makes sense. 

WV is 3-1-2

Auburn is 3-0-3

Georgetown is 2-1-3

Ohio State 3-1-1

I guess there aren't many great teams.

This has to be the year that Kelly gets told to pack her shit and head elsewhere, right? It's unbelievable to me that she is allowed to loiter.

Yes. She was not given an extension and is in the last year of her contract I believe. CDC did the same thing to Clark. 

[Rickylovesweed 14317]

Certainly, Del Conte won't extend Kelly until he sees NCAA tournament results? I was looking at the schedule and it's a joke how bad this schedule is. Texas could end up a top 15 team due to how weak the schedule is. 

How many of these games will Texas not be favored in? 

UTRGV 2-4

Texas Southern 0-4

UCF 2-1-2

AT TCU 4-2-1

AT Texas Tech 2-2-3

Baylor 2-3-2

Kansas State 2-3-1

Kansas 5-2

AT West Virginia 3-2-2

AT Iowa State 2-3-1

AT Oklahoma State 4-1-1

Oklahoma 2-2-2

TCU, OSU, maybe WV.   But it's Kelly, she fucking sucks and we are going to lose matches 0-1 or draw 1-1 against some of the crappier teams.  It's just the way it is.  

She'd have to make a real run to even get an extension, and maybe only a one year at that?  

CDC seems to be more of a "you're not being renewed/you're being dismissed" versus a "you're fired" kinda guy for non-football jobs.  Aston was dismissed in the last year of her contract.  Clark "resigned/retired" but was also in the last year of her contract - that felt like CDC giving the only softball coach in our history the chance to step down on her own terms before he had to dismiss her.  Shaka was given the chance to find a new job first. 

[Rickylovesweed 14317]

I don't believe Texas Southern will be winning this one. 

[Dr. Teeth 5844]

Run rule? 

[perfectchaos007 6643]

2-2 draw today against UCF. Conference play begins Thursday. Last year Texas went undefeated in Big12 play and still didn't win the conference title, so we need a win or a draw against TCU on Thursday to stay in the hunt.

We are 69th in RPI. Matches that help us:

TCU 19

OSU 42

Kansas 64

I just don’t see a path without a Big 12 title or going unbeaten with a W over TCU and OSU.

Well we’re better than last year to my eyes. Not making it would be a big disappointment.  

[Js1 85346]

TCU scores on a PK. 70’

1-1

[Rickylovesweed 14317]

1-1 tie. 

Did anybody see the PK? It was apparently a questionable call. Big 12 refs fuck us again? 

[perfectchaos007 6643]

1-1 Final. I guess there's no overtime this year. 

[Rickylovesweed 14317]

I don't know how you evaluate this Texas team? The RPI is bad but if they beat Texas Tech on Sunday they're going to be ranked in the top 20 in the polls. 

They may only lose 2 or 3 games all year because the schedule is so bad. 

[Js1 85346]

Yep

The NCAA Playing Rules Oversight Panel during a virtual meeting Wednesday approved changes to overtime rules in men's and women's soccer for both the regular season and the postseason, effective for the 2022 season.

For the regular season, overtime has been eliminated, meaning if a game is tied after the regulation 90 minutes, it will end in a tie. Previously, teams played two 10-minute overtime periods in a sudden-victory (golden goal) format, and if neither team scored, the game ended in a tie. 

In conference tournaments and NCAA postseason games, the sudden-victory component has been eliminated, and teams will play two 10-minute overtime periods instead. Also, when a substitution is made by the winning team in the last five minutes of the second overtime, the game clock will stop.

If the game remains tied, a penalty-kick shootout will be held to determine the winner.

[Js1 85346]

If Missimo is out for a significant amount of time (ankle injury in the first half), I do not have high hopes for making the tournament.  We need her. 

@ Tech on Sunday
Baylor on the 30th

Luckily we don't have Kansas until October 9 and WV until October 13.  Hope she's back by then. 

[Rickylovesweed 14317]

When looking at RPI, the only bad result so far was the draw against Oregon. 

Why does Kelly schedule this way knowing the Big 12 is horrible? A couple more draws against top 50 teams (like TCU and UCF) would likely have much more value than wins against UTRGV, Utah State, Texas Southern, and Lipscomb. Wouldn't you agree? I don't know enough about RPI.......

This looks like more of a scheduling problem than anything else. 

 

[Js1 85346]

Texas up 2-0 on Tech in the second half in Lubbock without Missimo

[Js1 85346]

Texas wins 2-0

1-0-1 to open Big 12 play
