[Uklax]

Matt Brandau finally getting the true accolade he deserves

[Uklax]

No roster changes for me.

My fears are:

I love to lose round 1 of playoffs, happens most of the time I qualify
NC beats me every time I play him
Towson have a ridiculous fixture so NC defense may score really high
UVA vs syr being a goal fest so Schutz racks up the goals
Brandau has a big game then a medium game most weeks and he just had a big game.
The form of my midfield is awful

Good luck NC and other qualifying coaches.

Unlucky Matt, glad you still won coach of the year, good to see the powers at be recognised your achievements regardless of failure

The coach of the year link is bad. It sends you to a dark place with a redundant listing of a bad man in a tigers hat and Hawaiian tshirt. I think this must be that sunken place from that movie

Well the craziest season for PA Talk is finally over.

Our starters failed to outscore our opponent all 8 weeks.

Week 1 we started our optimal lineup but had 9 of 13 players on the roster with zero points which never ever happened before.

With nearly the same lineup as last seasons 5-3 record, we drafted Mason Reale (22 points) to replace our only graduate Kyle Long (16 points) in round 5 and drafted the Georgetown D (12 points) to replace the UVA D (-13 points) in round 3.

Wins and Losses can be fickle.

Moving on with pick #2 in 2025.

Good luck in the playoffs to all !!!

[Matnum PI]

Ross Scott SR A Rutgers 23
Richie Connell SR A Denver 10
Mac Haley SO A Navy 10
James Matan SO A UNC 9
Mason Reale SR M Villanova 22
Dane Swanson SR M Navy 16
Jack Kelly SR M Brown 10
Tucker Wade FR M PRN 11
Georgetown D 12

Strange. You had good points from your starters and back-ups. You definitely had good points from your D. Admittedly, your #2 and #3 As could've been more productive but, still, you'd think this squad could've at least taken you into the play-offs, top 8.

"Our starters failed to outscore our opponent all 8 weeks."... That's crazy.

[maddog29]

A very poor season for our guys, but we'll be back next year ! Good luck to all playoff teams and congrats on making the playoffs

[OCanada]

Last weel i believe i was 8. This week i am 5 with no points from 3 of my starters. Still recovering, Assume injuries. I also assumed i would finish in bottom 10.

Doubt i get past this round

Quick question, is harrisoncoburn locked into starting O'Neill & Zawada and am I obligated to start Sloat? Definitely my advantage as O&Z underperformed that game as Dook only put up 4 goals on 'Cuse.

Yup

Yup

Okey dokey. FYI, O'Neill & Zawada combined average just shy of 9 points/game. I've officially jinxed myself!

Yup

So, another question, explain to me what, regular season game they had to be starters in (or not) to be counted (or not) in the quarters (this week)?

Btw, congrats on COY!! How many consecutive is that?!?!!

NCAA game was 3/20 so that was the Wednesday between Game 4 & 5.

Btw, congrats on COY!! How many consecutive is that?!?!!

Thank you. Every season I win I feel slightly more humbled. Again, thank you.

So, if they were starters for game 4 and you didn't remove them from your lineup they were automatically starters for qtrs, assuming said players team made the playoffs?
