It was nice seeing current LA Galaxy Head Coach (former Seattle Sounders and Columbus Crew Head Coach) Sigi Schmid in the house this afternoon. I love the attention our powerhouse team draws.

Of 204 D1 Mens Soccer teams, the MAC has 2 who are still playing in the Round of 16.

Otorhinolaryngology is a surgical subspecialty within medicine that deals with conditions of the ear, nose, and throat and related structures of the head and neck.

I️ agree. Let him in. Happy to have as many folks involved as possible.

U.S. Soccer has had their eye on Porter as a potential future men’s national team manager for quite some time. He was in charge of the Under-23 side’s 2012 Olympics qualifying campaign, and was expected to receive consideration for the vacant USMNT job. But even if Porter doesn’t get that gig, he’ll be extremely in demand and is unlikely to have trouble landing a new job. I'd love to see Caleb get his opportunity as USMNT Head Coach. But whether or not he lands that job, US [Mens] Soccer needs him...a YNT head coach, technical director, assistant coach... The Colorado Rapids, among others, could also desperately use Caleb's skills.

So much for Air Force. Of course, I didn't see Albany getting past Maryland as TDS predicted (but it wasn't the high scoring affair they predicted. 0-0 draw, 5-4 Albany advances on pk's)

Could we get Steve Zakuani bobbleads this go around?

Officially a draw not a loss.

^Amateur^ ... How many times do I have to direct you to the Zips Media guide...http://gozips.com/documents/2017/8/25/msoc_17guide_web.pdf Pages 66-72. Goals and number of games are there. For example: 1985: 17 goals alloewed / 20 games 1986: 20 goals allowed / 24 games You're welcome buflobo

Awesome...

I think you misread the 2nd sentence. As I read it, i believe kreed was referring to Dambrot/Akron not Groce/Ohio. That Dambrot "turned a below average to bad MAC program into the class of the MAC..."

Different Akron style back then... To contain Akron's English-style of play (scoring early and then focusing on defending its own net,) Rennie looked to control the strategy of the game. Taking advantage of his team's depth, he used frequent substitutions to slow the pace of play on the fast turf. As a result, starting goalkeeper Mark Dodd had to make just three saves to register his ninth shutout of the season. The winning and only goal of the game came at 1:34 into the second half, when Stone connected with an assist by Valenti and senior Carl Williamson that bounced off the bottom of the crossbar and into the net. It was Stone's eighth game-winning goal of the season, placing him at the top of the NCAA tourney in scoring with four goals and five assists.

Who is right here? ZIP says Desmond Armstrong played for Columbia; Bufflobo says Maryland. Did he transfer from Columbia to Maryland or vice versa? EDIT: Appears bufflobo is correct...Maryland. No listing of Columbia. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Desmond_Armstrong EDIT2: Akron defeated Fresno State in the semi-final in 1986...https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1986_NCAA_Division_I_Men's_Soccer_Championship Unless I'm overlooking them, Columbia not even in the bracket in 1986.

Now that I look at it again, I picked the upset. I think Air Force is at home, too.

Yes, I do. Bring home that victory against the flushes!!! Go Zips!

Enjoy. I will be in Columbus...

Thanks TennZips. The most interesting predictions (interpret as I disagrees) to me are: Air Force 2, Virginia Tech 1 Albany 3, Maryland 2

How could we call ourselves Zips Mens Soccer fans if we didn't have confidence that our talented team will put in the work and find the drive to win it all and bring home the trophy from Philadelphia?! GO ZIPS!!!

Still no predictions? With all of the comments on the others, one would think you would throw your large hat of immense soccer knowledge into the ring. jab - jab

Not a Zip, but hey he's representing the U-S-A...
