Re: Odds to reach the Final Four

Odds to reach the Final Four: Duke: 53% Maryland: 52% UNC: 55% Notre Dame: 22% Virginia: 40% Rutgers: 32% Denver 25% Georgetown: 16% For other probabilities, see http://www.laxbytes.com/OUTPUT/SERVER/men/odds01.php I think it would be great to see an all-original ACC final four: UMD, Duke, UVA, UNC!

Re: 2021 NCAA Tournament

I could see the old ACC as the final four this year: Duke, UVA, UNC and MD. Much would depend on the seeding but it would make an awesome final four in Hartford this May. Ratings extravaganza!

Re: UVA LACROSSE 2021

I kind of agree. This looks like the prototypical trap game with Carolina coming up on Thursday night. Airforce doesn't appear to be as threatening as in the recent past, but I would never discount them. There's a reason why these guys flight combat jets after playing lacrosse. Thank you in advance ...

Re: Upcoming Best Games

Not this weekend, but this coming Thursday night UNC plays at UVA on the ACC Network. This should be highly entertaining! Duke host HPU Wednesday night on ESPNU. I expect another tight competitive game in this one. Do you think the ACC is giving HPU a tryout before they invite them to become the 6th...

Re: Best Stadiums Among Programs That Are Not Famous Or In Top Conferences

I havent seen it in person, but the new Quinnipiac lacrosse/soccer stadium looks nice and way better than before. Although it's been around a while, one of the best places to watch lacrosse is certainly Stony Brook.

Re: UNC 2021

OK I need to remove the bad karma I created for myself! I went back and reread what I posted earlier and agree I was too judgemental of the situation. This was a result of too much influence from others that are much closer to the situation. I should not have posted what I did about the kid's charac...

Re: UNC 2021

One of UNC’s best players is literally in the portal right now to transfer next year. I’m not saying Johnson is the exact situation but it could be. as mentioned above, he could be in there to explore his options while still being at Carolina for the length of this season and committed to the team ...

Re: Maryland 2021

First time seeing the Terps play this year and what is obvious is their athleticism and team speed. The goalie play was outstanding. McNaney doesn't take up much of the cage but he has quick hands and vision with good outlet passes. If this kid keeps playing like he did last night the Terps will be ...

Re: OSU vs. Rutgers 27 February 12 Noon

This should be a terrific game and I wish it was on std BIG TV and not the premium plus which I don't have. Really liked Ohio St last weekend, they looked solid at each position, especially the goalie and attack. I think Maryland beats Penn St by 5 or 6 goals and UVA will win in a wild shoot-out som...

Re: UNC 2021

So he blows a year of eligibility because he saw some game time this year. He is a Jr academically but will have two years left to play since everyone got an extra year from last year. He looked great his freshman year and showed tons of potential, but dropped off a bit last year. The worst thing th...

Re: UNC 2021

well, guess we now know what's going on. Appears he lost the starting job and can't seem to win it back. Seems like a hostile threatening move to announce your transfer intentions mid-season. I doubt there are many options available for transferring now, especially during this environment. He sure i...

Re: UNC 2021

Right now, my only real concern is the goalie play; ACC play is fast approaching. Saves per game has too increase... Agreed. Currently saving at 47% which is low. 55% is more acceptable at this level. The days of 60% are long gone with the way offenses move and shoot the ball. Carolina will likely ...

Re: UNC 2021

This was a good win for the Heels against a solid HP team that should win lots of games this year. UNC needed a game like this early in the season. They needed to recognize nothing can be taken for granted and they need to show up ready to play out of the gate for every game as if they were playing ...

Re: Maryland 2021

Noticed the Friday, Feb 25th Maryland at Penn St game is going to be on BTN. We finally starting to see some B10 games start to play and on TV. Love Happy Hour lax games especially on Friday nights! It will be interesting to see how they compare to what we have seen so far from the 3 ACC teams that ...

Re: UVA LACROSSE 2021

Decent broadcast coverage and announcing given the circumstances. Good competitive game so far. Watching this one on my Macbook and the Heels v The Brook women's lax on the TV. Going to need a third device for the Loyola v Richmond game soon!

Re: UNC vs. Jacksonville, Feb. 13

I think the final score will be closer than the actual game once Coach Breschi empties the bench and lets everyone play which is a good thing. The weather could be a factor as it will likely be cold and wet. Thankfully they are playing on turf and not grass. Prediction: 13-5 at halftime with a final...

Re: Denver @ UNC 2/7 @ 1100 hrs.

A very convincing win today by the Heels over what was expected to be a solid Denver team and probably will be at the end of the season. I wish Carolina was playing the Jays and the Terps as they have in past seasons as they would be a better test than the next 5 games on the schedule before they me...

Re: Denver @ UNC 2/7 @ 1100 hrs.

Does anyone know why this game is being played at Kenan instead of the lacrosse/soccer stadium? Men's soccer is apparently playing games this spring so I guess it's easier to keep Dorrance Field lined and in soccer condition while letting the man's and women's lax teams play on the turf in Kenan. A...
