With our loss to DePaul, any chance of an at large are likely gone.
We are playing the top team. Need a win over a tough, top 10 squad.

Not sure if we were playing for a tie, but we were thoroughly dominated today. MoSt outshot us like 20-4 or something. We barely possessed the ball and our GK came up with a couple very big saves to salvage a tie on the road. I feel like we just had real sloppy play in our half. We should be out of the rankings now.
Btw, women’s soccer lost to Evansville today (bottom of the Valley). They’ve disappointed this year for sure.

Couldn’t watch the game but was following it and one of those classic soccer ties when the numbers are totally skewed to one team (and as you said Big D, not in our favor). Good thing is that a tie on the road should help the RPI but doesn’t help us climb in the standings. Good thing (or bad perhaps) is that we have the top two teams done but both of those look strong and don’t see the rest of the conference giving them trouble.
With the DePaul loss, we are definitely unranked again.
And yeah, the women’s team is a disappointment for sure. I think they were preseason third.
