    I gotta think Chaz Dean isn’t getting much bang for his buck with advertising during lacrosse games but maybe he’s big with the lax lettuce scene?

    I hope Delaware can make this a game. So far, it feels like Cornell is just waiting to blow this one open though

    Virginia is just so overmatched against this Maryland team. :laugh:

    I don’t think there’s a team next weekend that can stop this team, but hopefully we at least get some good games

    The whole team has been on a mission for this game, ever since the brackets were announced. A lot of anger and frustration is being released right now.

    No clue. I’m trying to get my 8 year old into the sport, so I have him watching. He keeps disappearing when there’s a barrage of goals, but comes back when it’s shit like that, that makes the game seem lame.

    didn't think uva would win, or really keep it super close, but also didn't see myself turning the game off with 2 minutes to go in the 3rd quarter. hopefully we get great weather and good games next weekend, and can crown maryland champs and be done with this historically great team (yes, i'm bitter. but congrats #Maryland Terrapins you guys are pretty pretty good)

    Wiermann just dominated Petey Lasalla. Can’t keep giving Maryland possession after possession.

    that's where i'm leaning as well. i didn't see the princeton maryland game from earlier this year, but nothing either team has shown me thinks this princeton team can keep maryland under control

    I haven’t seen a ton of them but I’ve been impressed with Princeton this season. That said, Maryland cruises.

    Rutgers depth is too much for Cornell imo.

    The weather delay had them struggling some in the first half, but the Maryland offense has really woken up.

    Weather delay totally fucked me. Had friends over tonight and told them to come after 5 (since that would give me time to watch both games). Instead I caught glimpses of the 2nd half of Cornell and then the final score of the Maryland game. I hope Monday is competitive at least

    Yeah, I tried to schedule around it, too. I took my kids to the zoo, and was trying to rush everybody through towards the end, so that I could catch the game. When I heard about the delay, I was told that the game likely wouldn’t be played until around 7 or 8, so I went ahead and took my sweet time, and did a bunch of other family stuff. By the time I sat down to check when it would start, I saw that it was already the start of the 3rd quarter. I felt like I went into a time warp of sorts.

    Anyway, I have admittedly watched zero Cornell games this year. I have no idea what to expect. What do you know about them?

    They’re a less good Princeton team. Altho they’veplayed better the last 4 weeks, and have obviously done well during the ncaa tournament.

    I expect Maryland to win by 10, but it wouldn’t shock me if Cornell kept it close bc of their attack.

    To add on to this, I expect Maryland to have the significant possession advantage due to the face offs. And they’ll be much more efficient in their possessions. But if ierlan(sp?) can get it going early, who the hell knows. That Cornell attack group is awesome.

    Just caught up on the replays now.

    -Massive weather delay super annoying during a showcase weekend for the sport.

    -Cornell was relentless against Rutgers. Shocked they completely dominated.

    -I get they’re trying to draw people in with narratives but we didn’t need a camera dedicated to the Kirst family the entire game.

    -Princeton gave Maryland some fits. Tough to overcome Maryland’s advantage in goal and the face off x.

    -Kept laughing at how seemingly impressed the broadcast team was with Erik Peters senior thesis on the reintroduction of wolves on the deer population. :laugh:

    -Puglise looks like he’s out (I’m guessing that’s confirmed now) and I’m sure someone else will step up but Alex Smith seemed to struggle at SSDM for Maryland.

    Had not seen that he was injured. That played a role in them not winning it all last year, so that’ll be very interesting to watch

    Looked like a broken wrist.

    Makar got absolutely smoked too but came back into the game. Wouldn’t shock me if he had a concussion.

    I want it to be close but, as much as I dislike Maryland, I think I’ll be slightly disappointed if Cornell pulls off the upset. Seeing an all time great team finish off a perfect record (and one of the beat 2 year stretches ever) will be something else. Also, I want to be able to claim that ND played them the closest all year

    That said, I’ll probably find myself rooting for the upset during the game bc that’s more fun

    It’s a rule that the ref has to check the pocket of the stick of the girl who scored to verify its legal. That’s why they drop their sticks. It’s pretty annoying to me when they throw them, but whatever.

    Outside of kirst they’ve been amazingly ineffective. Maryland d just too good.

    I feel like Maryland has played their two worst games of of then year these last two weeks offensively, and yet…

    I spent the first 30 minutes the game weeding the backyard (and had to catch up, which I finally did at half). That was preferable to watching this Cornell offense try and score
