SBZipfan Posted November 26, 2017 Report Share Posted November 26, 2017 Well I had Duke in the final (losing to the Zips, of course) and WMU in the final four, so I think I'm going to finish pretty low in this contest ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Z.I.P. Posted November 27, 2017 Report Share Posted November 27, 2017 Stanford defeats Coastal Carolina 2-0 in front of a crowd that looked like a couple hundred! Cardinal, in search of the triplicate must travel to Winston-Salem on Saturday and try to beat the #1 seed Wake Forest in a repeat of the 2016 national championship game. This and Akron @ Louisville would make SOME College Cup, but it's a week away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Z.I.P. Posted December 3, 2017 Report Share Posted December 3, 2017 Well, I got four out of four finalists. But I join fknbuflobo in hoping against at least one of my title game picks. But the 1PM Friday (HST) semifinal is #MustSeeFutbol. This is you going to be a great College Cup! Wish I were able to be there in Philly.

Thanks for putting this together ZV but putting my auditor hat on , I had all 4 final 4 teams (I picked UNC) so I should be at 61. With Akron winning it all against UNC, I think I still have a chance! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
