Yale v UVa - should VA bother showing up?
Re: Yale v UVa - should VA bother showing up?
That was a total butt kicking as the “Hoos gave the Eli’s fits”. Congrats to the Cavs...
Re: Yale v UVa - should VA bother showing up?
It’s a blood sport.
Cavs were in better shape at the end, maybe it’s Lars’ workout regimen.
Maybe it’s a deeper bench.
Ierlan looked spent.
Anyway.
Doesn’t matter now.
Well done Cavaliers

UVA showed you can lose a majority of face offs and still control the game. They did what Penn State couldn't do. Play defense and goalie make some stops
Re: Yale v UVa - should VA bother showing up?
Would you please fix the Princeton mistake that I pointed out earlier? (last championship in 2001, not 1992).
Re: Yale v UVa - should VA bother showing up?
Well Rasheed, I'd comment about how it isn't nice to disrespect anyone. Instead I'll just show you.

It's a matter of how competitive you are facing off....Tambroni went away from Arceri too soon. Not that he would have won more but the battles would have been more competitive...breaks up the rhythm.....TD didn't dominate UVA like he did Penn State. I know what the eyeball test tells me.oldsportsfan wrote: ↑Mon May 27, 2019 3:59 pm UVA showed you can lose a majority of face offs and still control the game. They did what Penn State couldn't do.

Congrats to UVA players, staff and fans.
Wonderful performance, clearly the better team

Re: Yale v UVa - should VA bother showing up?
Sure wasn't much question about who the better team was today, wow, Virginia put on an exhibition, a clinic worthy of a young laxer to watch over and over again. Their intensity was incredible all over the field, Yale looked stunned and not ready for the heat the Cavaliers brought. Congrats Cavaliers, well done.
The Cavaliers were just flat out better at every position, those Bulldogs couldn't sink their teeth into the Cav's O, couldn't guard their yard, Cavs just ran by them all day. At the other end the D just shut them down, wouldn't let them do much of anything.
Really gotta wonder if working your FOGO like a rented mule all season doesn't come back to haunt you on Memorial Day. TD wasn't the TD we saw for most of the season today. Might have hurt Yale a little but in reality, probably not, Va's D just shut Yale's O end off today. You bring the ball down there and odds are you weren't going to do much with it anyway. Between the D and GK you aint gettin nuthin at that end.
Was a good game.

Re: Yale v UVa - should VA bother showing up?
TD still won like 75% of the faceoffs against one of the better FOGOs in the nation, and he was over 90% in the second half. Maybe they weren't all clean, but it was business as usual for TD. The difference was the offense wasn't capitalizing today.

Far from the most exciting semi finals lacrosse I've ever seen, the girl's games offered a whole lot more.....faster and much more intensity. Gotta up your game, fellas.

Re: Yale v UVa - should VA bother showing up?
Virginia looked like the fresher team by far, Yale was empty, and Rode was the best player on the field
Re: Yale v UVa - should VA bother showing up?
I wonder if TD will be transferring to UVa now...
Re: Yale v UVa - should VA bother showing up?
Yale was physically out matched. Virginia delivered some hits to the much smaller Yale team.
Finally the refs let some contact back into the game.

That kind of fits.

Now we can emphasize the 19 in 1990.
Re: Yale v UVa - should VA bother showing up?
glad the 'hoos didn't have to catch the other half of the bracket.
national champs, luck shined on us. thank you, committee.

Re: Yale v UVa - should VA bother showing up?
I'm curious to see the boxscore and the exact numbers. People love heroes and scapegoats. We recognize that this is a team sport with a lot of moving parts and then the game ends and we're like... Who was the MVP?! All over the field, UVA was great. Yale was great in the middle third with face-offs and... Anywhere else? Bottomline, UVA was great.random observer wrote: ↑Mon May 27, 2019 4:18 pm ...

Anyone else hear that Ierlan is transferring to UVA for his final year? (...That's a joke. I 100% made it up. Sorry.)
