AND traveling from St. Louis to Rhode Island back to St. Louis and then to Akron

Fantastic! First time in 10 years we host an elite 8 match!

Saint Louis went directly over to the Bryant student section to taunt them after the win. Tells me you can possibly get in their heads a bit.

What an absolutely ideal day for us! Not only does St. Louis win, but they have to play an additional 20 minutes to do it!

WE ARE STAYING HOME. FILL THE HILL ONE MORE TIME

SLU advances on PKs. Akron will host!

And the Billikens will come to Akron!

Was this post supposed to be in the football section?

PKs for SLU/Bryant.

SLU-Bryant in OT.

The MAC is HQ’d in Cleveland. Hope they do it.

Soccer shouldn't be played on turf. The lines should make Bryant ineligible to host anything soccer related.

Tremendous article from the Cleveland Plain Dealer (this is currently not a subscriber only article...hopefully, all can access?) I have not yet seen the press conferences....but this has quotes from several zips players, Coach Embick and the Duke coach https://www.cleveland.com/sports/college/2025/12/akron-zips-mens-soccer-gives-duke-the-cold-shoulder-moves-into-ncaa-elite-eight-with-2-0-victory.html “The crowd drove us through that game,” Daragh Reilly said. “You could see in the last 10-15 minutes, we were getting tired. We were trying to push each other, but every time we got a play, we made a tackle, the momentum kept swinging back to us. “Big shoutout to the fans tonight. I don’t think we could have been anywhere near without that tonight.” “Awesome performance not only from our team, but from the fans and community that packed this place in this weather and were behind us the whole game,” Coach Embick said. “We fed off that energy, and I think that really helped us through some moments where maybe we weren’t playing as well as we wanted.”

Also the lines on the Bryant field are terrible. It’s like a bowling green orange color on the green turf with football lines fading. So hard to tell where anything is

Let's hope SLU advances on PK's!!!

Hard fought game by both teams in SLU and Bryant. Keep battling into OT

If Akron hadn't been screwed by the NCAA with the Northwestern game, Zakuani wins the Hermann Trophy that year. Emil last year was inexcusable as well.

It's an entirely crappy situation. Same with the only portal window being in January when teams are still playing their postseason.

I'm still cold two hours later but it was worth it!

credit to the 1,344 great fans.......that showed up in 30 degree weather...with 20 mph winds... https://goduke.com/documents/2025/11/30/Duke_at_Akron_MSOC_Final_Game_Book.PDF

Great crowd for a pretty cold night tonight. Late in the game a large plastic bag blew down the field and ended up in the Zips goal. We remarked it was the best shot on goal Duke had in the match.

GOAL SLU! 2-2

I do not understand the Lane Kiffin thing at all. First of all failure on the ADs, NCAA, everyone for allowing these coaching changes to happen before the season is over. What if Jared Embick just said he is going to coach somewhere else right now? Second, why would the coach of the #6 ranked team in the country leave his job to go coach a team that went 3-6 in conference play this year? Even if the answer is money how is Ole Miss not putting up the same amount of money to keep him? P4 football is a disaster, ruining the soul of college athletics
