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. 

 

SLU's goalie got a yellow card during PKs for throwing the Bryant goalie's water bottle over the large screen behind the goal. 

 

I personally wasn't impressed with either team, so if SLU lacks mental and physical fortitude, advantage Akron.

Washington knocks off Stanford. Wow. 

 

2 Big Ten

2 Big East

1 ACC

3 Whatever the Heck Conferences

And by seeds that reads as #'s 4, 7, 8, 14, 15, 16, and two unranked. Crazy tournament.

 

We are as good as anyone remaining, so why not us?

Because they are scholar athletes and part of a team that should have high standards of conduct.  There is a lot of physical conduct on the pitch but after the game the players shake hands.  The game is over, the better team won, have some class.

 

I don't condone fighting or destruction of property, and I don't particularly like seeing an away team heckle the home fans and players. However, if I condone home fans getting in the heads of players for 90+ minutes, then I don't feel that I can be a snowflake when it's over and the away team does a little jawing when they prevail. Curious, where was this discussion at the end of our game at Creighton?

I agree.  I thought I saw our team jaw a little bit after the Creighton game and I did not like it.  I think it starts with the coach.  Can anyone see our basketball team heckle the home fans after a basketball team?  I cannot see Groce tolerating it.  The only time I remember this happening was when the Kent team heckled the rowdies after they beat us at the jar a couple of years ago and everyone on this board commented  how the Kent team had no class.  If the Zips win Saturday we can put this topic to rest.

I caught the yellow card but didn't know what happened. Yikes.

I personally love the gamesmanship and quite frankly, with how sad the last PK attempt by Bryant was, they deserved everything they got lol. With that being said, I like Akron being the more composed, controlled, and skilled team on Saturday with everything I saw from SLU.

Same here. Thanks for the explanation @Let'sGoZips94.
