It is beyond annoying to look at that bracket.

2 NCAA calibre teams in that league and this coach and the culture of choke he has ingrained into this program pisses away a 1st round bye, AAC home field, and NCAA home field. All in the matter of 2 games. And the worst part is everyone expected it to happen. Nothing surprises you at all anymore with this program.

I cannot stand what is happening with UConn men's and women's soccer. 2 terrible situations not created by a coaching change like with Diaco/Ollie but by their own long time coaches who failed to keep the programs at the top where we need them to be.

Win the whole thing and we might have a chance to host an NCAA game no?

That would be my guess. Beating Central Florida would be a tall order in itself, but first they would have to break their losing streak and beat Temple. Given the last two games, I'm not about to take that bet. Beat the Owls and they are probably in the NCAA tourney. Lose to them and they are probably out. And in order to win this thing UConn would have to win 3 games in five days. Ray Reid has always been vocal about his dislike for playing two in three days, so it would be an expansion of that.

In the first game, 6 seed Memphis beats 3 seed South Florida 3-1.

Gianluca Catalano starting in goal for UConn instead of Austin Aviza. Is Aviza hurt?

About 25 minutes into the game, Temple up 1-0 off an own goal. Pretty flukey looking, but a goal just the same.

Wouldn't surprise me at all if that decides it. Team is so uninspiring. AAC has done a nice job with the stream so far though. Happy about that

Spoke too soon on the stream lol it's totally down

And of course the game is not on WHUS. No surprise there.

UConn ties it up off an own goal with about 5 minutes left in the half.

Is this the post you where referring to?



Halftime, UConn 1 v Temple 1

We are unlucky and hit the post right after we tied it.

Ah I only thought there was a Facebook Live stream. That crashed with like 11 minutes to go in the half

 

[WrenchFan69]

Stream is now down on both Facebook and Youtube. I'll take the blame for jinxing this but this is pretty bad from the conference.

 

[WrenchFan69]

Think UConn scored? It's a grey blur but I think Thiam put one in

 

[housekeys]

Youtube back up - just in time to show UConn score and go ahead 2-1!

20 minutes to go. Really... 20 minutes.

 

[dbmill]

Stream goes down and Dayonn Harris scores to make it 2-1 UConn. At least we have the stat feed.

Youtube is back up for me for now

I got it back as well, although I haven't seen the goal. That will come.

And UConn scores! 3-1 16 minutes remaining. Have not seen the whole game, but from what I have seen so far, UConn is playing well and deserves the lead.
