Kal Stanford 0:0 late. The official is pathetic excuse who should never ref a u6 game. Amazing nobody is seriously hurt. Piles off bodies down on the field at times.
But hey moron you stop the game for head injuries. And that is twice now incredibly. My god the men’s reffing is a disgrace

Now Kal 1:0 . Stanford had looked defeated by the physicality and the clueless official for the last 10 minutes or so. Looks like they are playing to not get hurt, but this isn’t a soccer game so not sure I blame them.
Ends 1:0
The men have collapsed end of the year. 3 losses and 2 ties to close the regular season. Looks like last year and I thought they had gotten past that.
Pretty terrible week for Stanford sports.
I fear the travel is starting to catch up with a lot of the athletes. It probably was not too bad in August and early September before the quarter started. Now in the middle of a Stanford quarter the combination of the academic workload, the athletic demands AND the significant air travel might be a bit much.
You could be right.
First 10 games through Sept 27: 8-1-1
Last 6: 0-3-3
Until their last “game” they had still mostly been playing well in many ways, but the attention to detail just vanished. Poor finishing. Sloppy moments on defense. Fatigue could well be a major cause. The one counter to that; however, is they have mostly been home over that stretch - just a trip to Dallas. Everything else has been in the Bay Area.
Seeding like the Women will be interesting depending on the ACC tournament with a massive RPI vs (un)ranking disconnect. RPI will be much higher.
