UAZipster0305 Posted October 26 Report Share Posted October 26 (edited) No game thread for yet another notable Big East opponent, so I'll start one. I am excited for potential win #9 in a row, and we are undefeated on the road so far. Is this a trap game before heading to UConn next week? Marquette is 6-5-4 (2-2-2) on the season with no wins against top-tiered teams. The Zips are 8-1-5 all-time against Marquette with the lone loss coming in the NCAAT on the road about ten years ago. I don't recall specifics, but I have the perception that we somehow got shafted in that game. If anyone has details, please remind me. Anyhow, I'd love to see another solid team win with Emil getting in on multiple goal contributions and a shutout for our defense. Prediction: another 3-0 domination. Go Zips! Keep it rolling!

If anyone has details, please remind me. game was at Marquette - 2013 round of 32 - NCAA tournament game real temp was somewhere in the neighborhood of -5 to -10.... I was at the game.... wind chill was probably closer to -25 to -35 field was almost frozen solid Jake Fenlason was great at stopping shots...but did not have a strong leg against the wind, his goal kicks did not reach midfield Marquette had a 6'8 centerback......they used that guy for long kicks due to the leg of the 6'8 centerback....the ball was mostly played with Akron defending their goal Akron freshman midfielder(sometimes known as VS8) let the ref know all game that Marquette was getting the advantage on calls... game was 0-0 after regulation.... in OT, Reinaldo Brenes was taken down in the box....No PK was called VS8 let the ref know(as the action was continuing) that was BS Marquette won 1-0 on golden goal.... after the game, the rather feisty zip midfielder gave the ref an earful.....with some physical contact. feisty midfielder was rewarded with a multi-game suspension at the beginning of 2014 season and a 2 game suspension from NCAA tourney games in 2014.... and yes, I thought that a PK should have been called when Reinaldo went down in the box did I mention that it was COLD !!!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TennZip Posted October 27 Report Share Posted October 27 really nice work by Malik to get free....to make a great pass for the assist on Emil's goal. Malik has really worked hard and has improved a great deal during his time at Akron. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zip_ME87 Posted October 27 Report Share Posted October 27 Some great team saves by Wan Kuzri Wan Kamal and Matt Dreas a short while back. Amazing defense on the goal line to keep Marquette from scoring. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fknbuflobo Posted October 27 Report Share Posted October 27 The general public of Summit County and beyond do not realize what they are missing. We are witnessing one of the best single player seasons in NCAA MSOC history. Emil Jaaskelainen is a great college player. No exaggeration. Never have I seen extraordinary production look so... mundane. The last time Zips had a superb, classic, back to the goal target man, true #9, was Matt English. Who was Matt English? Ask around. Starting to notice that tingle, last felt in 2018. Remember when Marcel Zajac went nuts? Get your tix. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UAZipster0305 Posted October 27 Author Report Share Posted October 27 7 minutes ago, Zip_ME87 said: We have a number of players who have accumulated 4 yellow cards. Accumulation of a 5th yellow card during the regular season, and a player must sit for the next game, even if it's a post season game. However, the accumulation number rises from 5 to 8 when post season starts. It will be interesting to see if our lineup is affected for the UConn game. As much as I want to win v UConn, I'd prefer to sit the players with the 4 YCs to ensure they play in the Nov 9th game. Just my opinion, since the UConn game is now inconsequential to BE Tournament seedings for us. However, I realize RPI points could be at stake as well as being a difficult decision to sit players who should be playing. Good thought, but I respectfully disagree with this strategy. The players should start and be coached to not be so aggressive that they get carded. I think it's important to keep continuity in the lineup and maintain our winning momentum, especially against a big brand and traditionally strong program like UConn.
