Draw controls NU 18-9. So it would stand to reason that if goal stands, NU has a 66.666% chance of getting possession. So at the very least, SB does not score 15 seconds later and there is a decent chance score is 10-10 by end of sequence. So yeah, it was a two goal swing.


Northwestern is a good team. Stony Brook is a really good team. It will not be easy for anyone this year (including SBU). Without question there is a much deeper field of teams this year. Getting to the Final Four is going to be tough.

Name the highest ranked team SB has played ... now BC. So you have a 1,2 that hasn't played any top 10 teams (no Navy is not. 1 goal win at home over Michigan???) BC will get a chance to prove themselves over the rest of the year. SB joke schedule.) Will listen to the nonsense all season until SB loses in NCAAs. Then the whining will begin.

My front runners for a Championship are Florida and Maryland .

Next with best shot at Final Four : Stony Brook, Boston College, Virginia, Syracuse , Northwestern .

JMU, Penn, Princeton, USC, Navy all competing to make it to the final 8 and a chance to knock someone off and get to Final Four.

Also in contention to make Final 8:Towson, Duke, Stanford , Loyola, Hopkins,Notre Dame, Georgetown , Colorado, Penn State.

Some very good teams will be left out of the Tournament this year.

Let me help you with a correction ... SBU is a really good offense. They are an ok defense and pretty poor in the midfield/draw. Having said that, it doesn't look there is a complete team out there, so it should be fun and interesting. It is a shame SBU doesn't play another meaningful game until the NCAAs. Certainly allows them to rest and stay healthier potentially than the teams that play real schedules. So they should have a big advantage come tournament time.

With new teams at the top of the rankings (teams that have never won anything) coaching will come into play this year like never before if the ranking holds for the season. Of the top 10 teams only 3 coaches have ever won anything. Teams like Florida should have won a couple by now with their talent but their coaching let them down. Its really tough to win the big one. Looks to be an exciting season

They have maybe 3 players wearing helmets.
They have more like 8 [players wearing helmets, I said it before 'cause will never win because of the hectic, undisciplined style of play, but for the record, with a 60 seconds left UVA's goalie has the ball behind the crease, when the 'cuse attacker gets within 5 yards of her she dumps the ball in the crease, that i a goal circle violation and the ball should have been given to the 'cuse attacker on the dot with the goalie 3 meters behind, this is the rule as it is written and has not been changed
Section 18. Once a team gains possession of the ball in the goal circle and the ball is cleared the team must not return the ball to their goal circle until the ball has been played by another player.
NOTE: The Goalkeeper (or her deputy) gains possession of the ball in the goal circle and passes or carries it out of the goal circle with her crosse. It has been "cleared." To be “played”, the ball must leave her crosse and be touched by another player or her crosse must be checked by an opponent.

As usual in woman Lacrosse the refs don't know the rules and blew a major call that would have almost certainly have resulted in a game tying goal. the goal circle rules take up only 2 pages of the rule book and these morons can't get a simple call correct



Actually as usual the fans just don't know the rules. The UVA goalie in the last minute of the game dumped the ball back into the crease 2 times but both of those times the ball was passed to her while she was standing outside the crease so it is completely legal. Its why when someone tells you the refs completely ruined the game for a team I tend to not believe it.

Yes. They were neck and neck until late against Virginia while missing their top middy. I watched Virginia vs Syracuse and Virginia is very good. Northwestern lost to Duke (who was blown out by Stanford). Splitting hairs with 12 or 13. But no, not many teams ranked below are better. Time will tell but right now I would say teams many teams in the Top 15 are very close. Some teams play tough schedules and others play soft schedules. Princeton has a tough schedule (not as tough as Northwestern) but tougher than most. USC also right there. All 3 somewhere between 10-15 for now.

The only question on that play by the VA goalie at the end of the game is whether she stepped on goal circle line before she tossed ball in. check the replay in slow mo. Everything else she did was legal.

Refs made correct call on the VA goalie. They blew it on that yellow card to VA on the free shot. That is not a card.

The theory you apply to today's current rankings " Of the top 10 teams only 3 coaches have ever won anything." can be applied to every ranking, every day of all 100+ teams for the last 15 years running. Hope you didn't spend too much time to come up with that tid bit of wisdom.

Brown is better than you think. Only down 8-7 at the half with Boston College. Brown is not top 20 but they are close.

So don't discount SB UNC and Maryland come crunch time. The others have proved they have trouble getting it done

Here is a bit more math for you... NU won 66.66% of the draw controls and SU scored 60% of the goals. I will take the later stat, you can have your draw math. How many additional draws and goals would NU have lost with a legal draw stick? By the way, you also lost on your home field.

I think the most interesting thing about this banter here is that SBU again got killed on the draw. It will come back to bite them if they don't figure it out. They have played a grand total of zero top 10 teams (at least in current ranking) and will not the rest of the season. Come NCAAs, if they haven't improved meaningfully in that area, they will not win the national championship. Their offense is great, but you cannot lose that many possessions against a series of top teams like they should face in the NCAAs and not run into problems at some point. I hope I'm wrong, but this is a problem.

With all the criticism that takes place on this board puzzling how the disgusting playing style of Syracuse doesn’t get a reaction. Dirty play after dirty play. Helmets and cross checks

Gait, Spallina and extremely weak officiating are going to be the reason helmets with be mandatory within the next 5 years. Such a shame and uneccesary. If the refs actually threw people out of games the hacking would stop.

Worst of all the polls.

JMU
BC
Virginia

All belong in the Top 4.

Northwestern too high.

Penn State not Top 20.

Cornell , Denver, Virginia Tech should not be ranked.

Aside from UNC being a little lower, this is the most accurate poll. This takes strength of schedule into account. JMU has 1 Quality win. Virginia has 1 quality win. A close loss to another top 5 team shouldn't effect the rankings much. Someone has to lose. You are probably of the same mindset that UCF is better than Alabama in college football this year. They were undefeated with 1 quality win and people are calling for them to be National champs. If you play a tougher schedule you are way more likely to lose a game or 2.

Or start tallying the fouls like basketball. People would clean up their games pronto.

U do realize as an SB fan, a comment like that weakens your argument that SB should be #1 right? What you should be saying is "NU is really good, and SB still beat them by 5 on their field." Get it?

Otherwise the answer is, SB hasn't played anybody good, and don't really deserve to be #1.

But I guess that's why you went to a place like SB. See, if you were able to get into Northwestern, you'd be smarter than that.

Newsflash. Nobody knows what a good win and a bad win is and we won’t know for a few more weeks. The venom some people spew over polls that mean zero is insane. Let the season play out crazy Dads. its funny tho once some of you lose the lacrosse argument turns to “ my kid is smarter than yours “ lolol it’s early have fun watching our daughters without the crap

Poor offensive execution but I wouldn't say overmatched. Stick check changes game from 10-9 to 11-8 w 10 to play. That makes it more like a 14-11 game. And Northwestern dominated time of possession. They need to play better on offense, but outmatched is a bit of an overstatement.



Didn’t see the game so curious how the stick check against NU gave SB a goal (from 10 to 11)? And who’s to say she would have scored without it being illegal? Tough to argue that getting caught cheating cost them.


Draw controls NU 18-9. So it would stand to reason that if goal stands, NU has a 66.666% chance of getting possession. So at the very least, SB does not score 15 seconds later and there is a decent chance score is 10-10 by end of sequence. So yeah, it was a two goal swing.


Northwestern is a good team. Stony Brook is a really good team. It will not be easy for anyone this year (including SBU). Without question there is a much deeper field of teams this year. Getting to the Final Four is going to be tough.



Let me help you with a correction ... SBU is a really good offense. They are an ok defense and pretty poor in the midfield/draw. Having said that, it doesn't look there is a complete team out there, so it should be fun and interesting. It is a shame SBU doesn't play another meaningful game until the NCAAs. Certainly allows them to rest and stay healthier potentially than the teams that play real schedules. So they should have a big advantage come tournament time.


The offense won't be resting - 3 career scoring records in sight and lots of cupcakes to beat up on.

BC will not be in the top 5 at end of year either as soon as they start laying their ACC schedule and not the cupcake non conference games they will be exposed.
