WEBVTT

00:00.000 --> 00:02.000
That's why

00:05.040 --> 00:07.040
You're not to miss out

00:07.040 --> 00:09.040
But that's why

00:17.520 --> 00:19.520
Into the light now

03:00.000 --> 03:06.000
Don't you waste the time with me, cuz I don't care who you are

03:06.000 --> 03:15.000
They can't be on the floor, only you must be here

03:15.000 --> 03:20.000
You're gonna see me on every night in the dark

03:50.000 --> 03:52.000
Did you hear me?

03:52.000 --> 03:54.000
Come on, come on

03:54.000 --> 03:56.000
Come on, come on

03:56.000 --> 03:58.000
Congratulations

03:58.000 --> 04:00.000
Just need some patience

05:50.000 --> 05:52.000
Oh

13:50.000 --> 13:54.000
And your eyes running around your head

13:54.000 --> 13:58.000
There's a thousand enemies

13:58.000 --> 14:02.000
And there's a fire that ain't nothing to do

14:02.000 --> 14:05.000
We're gonna watch them fall

14:05.000 --> 14:10.000
Cause if you leave it all behind and burn

14:10.000 --> 14:12.000
I'll be the one you call

14:12.000 --> 14:16.000
Ooh, it's only, it's only human

14:16.000 --> 14:20.000
When I feel like no one comes

14:20.000 --> 14:24.000
Like a beat and no control

14:24.000 --> 14:27.000
I'll be born you, girl

14:27.000 --> 14:31.000
Oh, so it is only human

14:31.000 --> 14:35.000
When I'm feeling all the right

14:35.000 --> 14:39.000
Going deep into the night

14:39.000 --> 14:42.000
I'll be born you, girl

15:12.000 --> 15:14.000
I

16:12.000 --> 16:14.000
I

16:42.000 --> 16:52.000
I feel when you call, I'm watching far

16:52.000 --> 17:02.000
I feel when you call, I'm watching far

17:02.000 --> 17:06.000
I feel when you call and what you call.

17:24.000 --> 17:28.000
Hello, LCS in the rearview mirror and it's full blast for a CRL.

17:28.000 --> 17:31.000
Welcome to another Sunday afternoon or morning delight,

17:31.000 --> 17:34.000
depending on where you are in the United States and beyond.

17:34.000 --> 17:38.700
My name is Novanta, and I want to welcome you to CRL Week 3 of League Play.

17:38.700 --> 17:40.140
But as always, I'm not alone.

17:40.140 --> 17:43.800
I'm being joined by some of the luminaries and dignitaries in walking the league,

17:43.800 --> 17:48.400
which is what I'm about chicks into my bass and the man with the velvety tones himself.

17:48.400 --> 17:49.400
Give it up for Pyro J.

17:49.400 --> 17:50.400
Pyro J, I'm starting with you, man.

17:50.400 --> 17:51.400
How you feeling?

17:51.400 --> 17:52.400
I'm feeling great.

17:52.400 --> 17:53.900
It's an honor to be here.

17:53.900 --> 17:58.700
My collegiate brutes, they run deep all the way back from different conferences

17:58.700 --> 18:01.860
to all the opens and the qualifiers here for CRL,

18:01.860 --> 18:04.940
even your rocketeers for that EU collegiate side

18:04.940 --> 18:07.180
will look at some players today like Barris

18:07.180 --> 18:08.580
to add their origin there,

18:08.580 --> 18:10.700
but it feels very full circle.

18:10.700 --> 18:13.340
I get to do it with y'all brilliant friends here today.

18:13.340 --> 18:15.780
So I'm ready, it's gonna be a great day.

18:15.780 --> 18:18.260
Tixle, how are you? Talk to me.

18:18.260 --> 18:19.300
I'm feeling good.

18:19.300 --> 18:21.300
I mean, I was just out world last week.

18:21.300 --> 18:22.940
I of course saw Bass there.

18:22.940 --> 18:25.360
We saw many other River friends,

18:25.360 --> 18:31.460
Vodabull, Taco, all them normally on the broadcast, you know, got to see everyone in person.

18:31.460 --> 18:35.800
There's no better feeling than, you know, hanging out with you guys so often and then

18:35.800 --> 18:37.760
finally getting to hang out in person.

18:37.760 --> 18:42.560
And it was just such a surreal experience as it always is to be surrounded by Rocket

18:42.560 --> 18:46.280
League folks that are experiencing it for the first time or have been around in the

18:46.280 --> 18:49.000
scene a while and we get to all reconnect.

18:49.000 --> 18:55.660
So thanks to Phil, like I said on Twitter and on X today, that this is following Worlds

18:55.660 --> 18:56.660
weekend.

18:56.660 --> 19:00.000
So everyone is currently in the Rocket League mindset right now.

19:00.000 --> 19:04.000
Yeah, and Brass on the scale up to Kumi the Merc, how are you feeling?

19:04.000 --> 19:06.840
Kumi the Merc, where are we going?

19:06.840 --> 19:10.280
I'm saying Fennec just because that's the correct answer in all situations.

19:10.280 --> 19:14.400
I'm feeling good man, I'm excited to be back in Worlds, I'm also excited to see

19:14.400 --> 19:15.400
where CRL develops.

19:15.400 --> 19:20.680
is zero started parody a little bit RLCS right now with a very top heavy bracket

19:20.680 --> 19:24.040
or I guess new play standing starting to develop. We keep talking about this being

19:24.040 --> 19:29.560
the closest semester ever and yet somehow there's always a clear top four as there is every semester.

19:29.560 --> 19:32.600
Well, we have a lot to get into when it comes to that. Let's take a look. Welcome back if you've

19:32.600 --> 19:36.360
been here before but this is your first time. You're kind of in for a treat because this

19:36.360 --> 19:41.080
looks daunting from the top down but you know it's all about those you can grind. It's

19:41.080 --> 19:46.680
to 16 team lead play. This is week three of that lead play top four move on for the championships

19:46.680 --> 19:51.320
of the semester of the bottom 12 go with that last chance qualifier, which means it's not

19:51.320 --> 19:56.360
necessarily the end of the line for you, but you realize that window margin for error is getting

19:56.360 --> 20:02.680
smaller by the round. Also, there is a series of 3v3 open circuits with a chance to get yourself

20:02.680 --> 20:07.320
in that last chance qualifier as well. An alternate route if you don't necessarily have that

20:07.320 --> 20:12.360
We play stuff, but the last chance qualifier will be a massive undertaking to get that way.

20:12.360 --> 20:16.760
But the whole idea is the same to make sure you hit that fall championship.

20:16.760 --> 20:19.640
Moving over to the 3v3 open winners.

20:19.640 --> 20:22.760
I just want to give a shout out to Pyros and those a little bit more about that.

20:22.760 --> 20:26.680
I mean, 3v3 opens are kind of a little bit of a side quest,

20:26.680 --> 20:28.440
but had their own kind of pop to them.

20:29.640 --> 20:34.120
I think they highlight the teams that are on the come up, that are ready,

20:34.120 --> 20:35.880
getting ready for that LCQ.

20:35.880 --> 20:39.880
You've got a couple of teams that made pretty short work of their opens.

20:39.880 --> 20:42.800
Ball State Black had a single game loss.

20:42.800 --> 20:46.720
You got Drummondville down there, undefeated run to the finals.

20:46.720 --> 20:49.880
But then you had those teams who really had to duke it out.

20:49.880 --> 20:52.520
York against Kaiser with that win.

20:52.520 --> 20:58.440
You had BPC who had that bracket reset with Syracuse.

20:58.440 --> 21:03.160
Cumberland Maroon had to take out their own sister team in Cumberland Black.

21:03.160 --> 21:06.040
And Davenport, team I've been watching for years.

21:06.040 --> 21:10.040
Bulltea, Brock, Exile, they had to get wins over Kettisaw,

21:10.040 --> 21:11.720
a team with Cronovia and Flitz.

21:11.720 --> 21:15.720
Not an easy run, but great wins of different varieties

21:15.720 --> 21:16.800
for all these teams.

21:16.800 --> 21:18.320
Comfort, Limeroy, and Comfort is Black.

21:18.320 --> 21:22.000
Sometimes it'd be your own people, right?

21:22.000 --> 21:24.040
Let's take a look at the opening standings.

21:24.040 --> 21:26.160
Bass is one of your expertise, man.

21:26.160 --> 21:27.080
Walk me through this one.

21:27.080 --> 21:29.160
What's coming up at you?

21:29.160 --> 21:30.600
Well, the big thing that we're starting to see

21:30.600 --> 21:32.440
is kind of a parody of what happened with Opens

21:32.440 --> 21:35.880
in the last semester. For those that don't know how the opens are going to work here, the big thing is

21:35.880 --> 21:39.560
is not only are you going to get points from each of the opens, but if you don't get points,

21:39.560 --> 21:44.040
your ability to get in the LCQ gets further and further away. And some surprising teams have

21:44.040 --> 21:47.880
missed out on points or missed out on events so far. A name that should be on this list,

21:47.880 --> 21:52.600
not just somewhere on here, but arguably in first place, should be Syracuse. It's a team

21:52.600 --> 21:56.680
that barely missed out on lead play. Now it's looking like they're going to miss out on LCQ

21:56.680 --> 22:00.520
because in the first event, they hit a sub. The sub did not do as well as the regular team.

22:00.520 --> 22:04.260
shocking I know who could have seen this coming they don't get points second

22:04.260 --> 22:08.320
event they do get points but they're placed into a bracket with a BPC and

22:08.320 --> 22:13.040
Sinclair the teams in 6th and 7th right now so they do not win that bracket

22:13.040 --> 22:16.760
either they now find themselves outside the top six team probably not making it

22:16.760 --> 22:20.240
in the LCQ and that's something we're seeing every semester so for any teams

22:20.240 --> 22:22.840
that are listening to this perspective teams maybe they're signing up next

22:22.840 --> 22:26.560
semester do not miss the open I get it you guys are college students you

22:26.560 --> 22:29.680
have a lot going on but every open matter is it as matter if you were

22:29.680 --> 22:31.800
Syracuse, Boise, or whoever.

22:31.800 --> 22:33.560
If you mess up in even one of these events,

22:33.560 --> 22:35.640
that might be the end of your semester.

22:35.640 --> 22:37.960
Far beat for me for being biased here in the castle.

22:37.960 --> 22:41.400
But my undergrad was, what, 45 minutes away from Daytona?

22:41.400 --> 22:43.840
And Daytona, in fact, they're in the conversation

22:43.840 --> 22:45.040
this late in the semester.

22:45.040 --> 22:48.200
But here you go, right on, fellas, you know how it goes.

22:48.200 --> 22:49.860
Moving over to lead play standings,

22:49.860 --> 22:51.720
that's when you get almost ready for our first match

22:51.720 --> 22:52.560
of today.

22:52.560 --> 22:54.400
I want to talk to you about this a little bit.

22:54.400 --> 22:56.840
Sometimes you see some of our normal players

22:56.840 --> 22:58.640
in the mix, some new faces.

22:58.640 --> 23:01.260
How do you make up the same as us far?

23:01.260 --> 23:03.140
Yeah, I mean, as we mentioned there,

23:03.140 --> 23:07.700
we talked very briefly about how top heavy this is getting.

23:07.700 --> 23:10.740
It is very close, you know, in that midsection range,

23:10.740 --> 23:13.980
but Northwood and Concord are truly reigning supreme

23:13.980 --> 23:17.820
at the top of the leaderboard, both so far undefeated,

23:17.820 --> 23:20.860
both insane game differentials.

23:20.860 --> 23:22.860
I mean, you're talking about they've barely dropped

23:22.860 --> 23:25.220
anything at all in order to be

23:25.220 --> 23:26.660
where they currently are at,

23:26.660 --> 23:29.100
and they're taking wins over really good teams.

23:29.100 --> 23:33.100
I mean, Northwood notably recently 3-0 in Winthrop,

23:33.100 --> 23:35.660
not dropping a game there.

23:35.660 --> 23:36.500
At the end of the day,

23:36.500 --> 23:39.140
Boise getting their first win over Fisher.

23:39.140 --> 23:41.700
So you're wondering where's Fisher really gonna land,

23:41.700 --> 23:45.340
Concord 3-0, 3-1 over Akron,

23:45.340 --> 23:47.340
Winthrop 3-0 over Ole Miss.

23:47.340 --> 23:50.420
It's just like all the recent games,

23:50.420 --> 23:52.620
those at the top are currently staying at the top

23:52.620 --> 23:53.960
and those in the middle,

23:53.960 --> 23:56.060
like you're wondering, Baylor, Winthrop,

23:56.060 --> 24:03.820
say where are they currently gonna lie because the top four very little margin for air and to the

24:03.820 --> 24:10.540
top four are going to be in action today. Let's take a look at today's match schedule for week three.

24:10.540 --> 24:16.540
You got two squads pulling double duty ball state and a top and of course you have concord in

24:16.540 --> 24:22.060
the night. Cap or afternoon cap or about that knife and I'm going to ask you Pyro which is one

24:22.060 --> 24:27.580
matchup or minimal matchups that are sitting out for you. I mean, I love the double-double header

24:27.580 --> 24:34.460
here with all state and Concord. You can really pick any one of these matches, but I want to see

24:34.460 --> 24:40.620
how the day wraps up with Fisher and Concord. Concord, one of the two teams that are undefeated,

24:40.620 --> 24:47.740
can anybody take them down? And it would be that huge surprise for Fisher to do it.

24:47.740 --> 24:53.740
the ultimate rising from the ashes as of Phoenix because their team's not looking really as we

24:53.740 --> 24:59.820
expected them to look at the start of the season. So this would be the biggest comeback for them,

24:59.820 --> 25:04.220
for sure. Now I think this is the first time this semester I'm going to be working with you,

25:04.220 --> 25:08.060
Vaz Vaz, to talk to the Champions League pod. What do you think about place matchup today?

25:09.260 --> 25:13.100
I think that we've got a lot of proving grounds here to put it simply. I think Ole

25:13.100 --> 25:16.860
Miss needs to win or at least be competitive in that second matchup if they want to stay in

25:16.860 --> 25:19.660
conversation for one of the top 10 teams in all of CRL.

25:19.660 --> 25:23.940
I think similarly, if Fischer wants to even be in any conversation the rest of the semester,

25:23.940 --> 25:24.940
that's their last chance.

25:24.940 --> 25:26.580
Look, we've talked about this a lot.

25:26.580 --> 25:27.580
There are a lot of very good teams.

25:27.580 --> 25:29.660
I don't want to say anybody is out by week three.

25:29.660 --> 25:31.140
That's an insane statement.

25:31.140 --> 25:35.900
But the truth is, is that the bar to make it into playoffs is around 10 to 12 wins

25:35.900 --> 25:36.900
minimum.

25:36.900 --> 25:41.420
If Fischer loses this match, their maximum record at this point will be 11 and 4.

25:41.420 --> 25:45.900
And that is not a good record for a team that finished second in the last semester.

25:45.900 --> 25:48.780
So for a couple of these teams here, this is the last stand, this is the last straw.

25:48.780 --> 25:52.160
If you can't put up some good wins at this point, you're gonna probably get kicked out

25:52.160 --> 25:55.040
of contention for the rest of the semester and have to try to find a way to play off

25:55.040 --> 25:56.040
through the LCEQ.

25:56.040 --> 25:59.100
I'm looking at Fisher, I'm looking at Cumberland, I'm looking at Ole Miss, and I'm definitely

25:59.100 --> 26:00.100
looking at Ball State.

26:00.100 --> 26:03.260
If Ball State go back to back on losses today, I think that's the end of their semester.

26:03.260 --> 26:06.300
Oh, well, the challenge almost seems insurmountable.

26:06.300 --> 26:08.500
This is what that first match up today.

26:08.500 --> 26:13.140
It's going to be West Virginia against that Ball State and those who've been

26:13.140 --> 26:17.920
listening to CRL for many semesters know that maybe I'm most critical about ball

26:17.920 --> 26:34.620
state in the light brightness but that's a little smidgen, not bad. But I had the chance to do some major damage and look at this roster as we go forward and well we just got word just a moment of go that Jarrow will not be in action for West Virginia with matter getting the call.

26:35.140 --> 26:39.420
Chicks, let me start with you. West Virginia, is this the cheat code they're looking for?

26:39.420 --> 26:43.980
you know I think everyone's just looking to be a little bit more spicy I'm not

26:43.980 --> 26:48.980
saying those of us that are slightly older in the scene are outclassed but we

26:48.980 --> 26:54.140
talk a little bit about those who are just a bit more mechanical or younger

26:54.140 --> 27:00.780
who managed to show off and I think this team and matter you know Devo and

27:00.780 --> 27:06.740
Cosmic tend to be slightly more flashy and that's the chance that WVU is

27:06.740 --> 27:12.340
is taking today. How flashy can they be? Can they be interesting on the field creative with

27:12.340 --> 27:18.420
the passing plays and be unexpected? Jiro brings a lot of experience with him. And sometimes

27:18.420 --> 27:23.860
you need that as a good basis for a team. But at the end of the day, when that younger team

27:23.860 --> 27:28.820
gets comfortable, I mean, let's think of someone like SSG last week, then things happen.

27:28.820 --> 27:33.220
Things happen on the field. So at the end of the day, I'm excited to see

27:33.220 --> 27:34.980
how these three will play together.

27:34.980 --> 27:37.220
That's really what I'm looking at.

27:37.220 --> 27:40.780
Do they have chemistry as this three?

27:40.780 --> 27:42.340
Let's talk about chemistry, Pyro.

27:42.340 --> 27:44.420
Ball stays pretty much put their chips in.

27:44.420 --> 27:46.260
They know their roster's going to be.

27:46.260 --> 27:47.980
This roster announcement from West Virginia

27:47.980 --> 27:50.620
was unexpected to say the least, especially us

27:50.620 --> 27:51.980
for us here in the booth.

27:51.980 --> 27:54.900
If you are a ball state, does your game plan change at all?

27:54.900 --> 27:56.980
Or do you just stay the course?

27:56.980 --> 28:01.060
It's really about maintaining the game plan with God and oath.

28:01.060 --> 28:04.900
This is their fourth season together under Ball State.

28:04.900 --> 28:07.540
So whereas you have this team of WVU,

28:07.540 --> 28:09.940
that's very much organic of this year.

28:09.940 --> 28:13.620
How do we fit this new recruit of Devo in with Matter

28:13.620 --> 28:14.460
for Ball State?

28:14.460 --> 28:16.500
It's like, okay, let's bring in Thebes

28:16.500 --> 28:20.860
and fit them into the mold that works with God and Oath.

28:20.860 --> 28:22.900
So these are two teams that have their eyes set

28:22.900 --> 28:24.100
on the top four,

28:24.100 --> 28:27.420
but their journeys there will look very different.

28:27.420 --> 28:30.980
Oh, man, well, I can't wait to see this one.

28:30.980 --> 28:32.700
But before we get into the first matchup,

28:32.700 --> 28:34.060
we gotta get the predictions in there

28:34.060 --> 28:36.260
to make sure that we are on point.

28:36.260 --> 28:39.780
I know as you keep a score about how the predictions are going,

28:39.780 --> 28:41.060
I think I'm still in the lead.

28:41.060 --> 28:43.060
I'm gonna wait till the next the last to have you.

28:43.060 --> 28:44.340
Chicks, I'm gonna start with you.

28:44.340 --> 28:46.940
Predictions, first match up here at West Virginia

28:46.940 --> 28:48.180
as a strong team.

28:48.180 --> 28:50.540
Are you'll be stronger against Ball State?

28:50.540 --> 28:51.540
What's your view?

28:52.460 --> 28:54.900
Yeah, I decided to go with West Virginia,

28:54.900 --> 28:56.660
I think so far this season,

28:56.660 --> 28:58.780
they've proven to be a little bit more consistent.

28:58.780 --> 29:02.100
Yes, this roster shake-up shakes things up a little bit,

29:02.100 --> 29:05.700
but I do believe Matt is still a very strong player

29:05.700 --> 29:06.660
at the end of the day,

29:06.660 --> 29:09.580
and he should fit in very easily to the post.

29:10.580 --> 29:14.660
Well, well, well, Pyro, I mean, chemistry versus skill

29:14.660 --> 29:16.500
versus timing, it all counts.

29:16.500 --> 29:18.660
But what do you have for your prediction today?

29:18.660 --> 29:19.500
Well, listen up,

29:19.500 --> 29:21.900
because I haven't had a single wrong prediction all season.

29:21.900 --> 29:22.740
Oh!

29:22.740 --> 29:25.940
It's gonna be a very, very close one.

29:25.940 --> 29:27.740
And it does hurt my heart

29:27.740 --> 29:30.100
Jirah is not playing for West Virginia today.

29:30.100 --> 29:33.300
First ever tournament I watched was from the Peeps DreamHack 2019.

29:33.300 --> 29:35.740
One of my favorite players from the beginning.

29:35.740 --> 29:37.260
My heart's still eyes with them today.

29:37.260 --> 29:41.220
WPU in my mind take the win in five.

29:41.220 --> 29:44.020
Both teams have tough historically.

29:44.020 --> 29:46.740
I come a little short of the promised land pass.

29:46.740 --> 29:48.580
Let me know if you're with the wave

29:48.580 --> 29:50.500
or you're going in the direction.

29:50.500 --> 29:52.780
Well, the thing is, is that one of these two teams

29:52.780 --> 29:54.100
did not come up short last year.

29:54.100 --> 29:55.660
We talked about how like once a year,

29:55.660 --> 29:58.620
Ball State will win a national championship. That doesn't really make sense.

29:58.620 --> 30:01.500
These two teams did that last year at the nation's national championship.

30:01.500 --> 30:06.020
Well, West Virginia, the favorite by far to win it, didn't.

30:06.020 --> 30:07.620
And they lost to Ball State.

30:07.620 --> 30:10.500
Since then, Ball State have kind of been, you know, talking about like,

30:10.500 --> 30:12.860
hey, we got this comeback potential, not today.

30:12.860 --> 30:15.460
I think West Virginia are going to win to take that as a chip on their shoulder.

30:15.460 --> 30:17.460
I think they're going to come back here with some ferocity.

30:17.460 --> 30:20.900
And I think they're going to take this win pretty comfortably, I would say, as well.

30:20.900 --> 30:23.020
West Virginia are just outside my top four right now.

30:23.020 --> 30:25.220
And if they get a win here in a significant manner,

30:25.220 --> 30:27.220
there's a chance that they start getting into that conversation.

30:27.220 --> 30:29.900
No, I'm torn for not for the reason you're thinking.

30:29.900 --> 30:31.140
I got West Virginia. I do.

30:31.140 --> 30:34.140
I'm not going to bury the lead there, but at the same time,

30:34.140 --> 30:35.940
I'm also never wrong.

30:35.940 --> 30:39.420
So Pyrr and I are pretty much on the same side of things.

30:39.420 --> 30:42.300
I want to make sure we are top of that predictions list.

30:42.300 --> 30:44.700
And so if you have a difference of opinion,

30:44.700 --> 30:45.900
make sure to listen to the chat.

30:45.900 --> 30:48.140
But I think the teams are ready to go.

30:48.140 --> 30:52.300
I think we're about ready to have our first contest of the evening.

30:52.300 --> 30:54.420
So let's get to it.

30:54.420 --> 30:56.760
It is a best of five matchup.

30:56.760 --> 30:59.260
The Mountaineers, the West Virginia are taking on the Cardinals

30:59.260 --> 31:00.220
of Ball State.

31:00.220 --> 31:03.020
Both teams are looking to exorcise their demons.

31:03.020 --> 31:05.020
Can they do it on the pitch?

31:05.020 --> 31:07.900
Hiro, Bass, this one is all you.

31:10.860 --> 31:14.360
Great heights to reach for both teams here

31:14.360 --> 31:16.700
as the Mountaineers climb, and the Cardinals

31:16.700 --> 31:19.340
fly to that coveted hot-force spot.

31:19.340 --> 31:21.300
It's highly contested, and what better way

31:21.300 --> 31:23.540
to open the show today than see the two Titans

31:23.540 --> 31:28.780
of West Virginia and Ball State do get out. I'm so ready for this one like we

31:28.780 --> 31:32.340
said there's history between these two but beyond the history between these two

31:32.340 --> 31:36.800
their playoffs at both teams believe they can make. That's the big problem we're

31:36.800 --> 31:39.420
seeing right now is that as much as eight teams believe that they can get to

31:39.420 --> 31:43.460
these heights it's about what can you do on paper. Every game matters every

31:43.460 --> 31:47.820
series determines how far you will climb. Ball State West Virginia game one

31:47.820 --> 31:52.620
here for CRL Sunday Pyro. I'm excited to finally join you in the booth.

31:53.460 --> 31:56.100
Oh, it's a pleasure to be in the booth with you, Bass.

31:56.100 --> 32:01.020
It's a pleasure to see this West Virginia three spot that we're witnessing right now.

32:01.420 --> 32:03.900
Devo is a player you can't see on the field.

32:03.900 --> 32:07.820
Matt, previously done, is a player you've got to see.

32:08.180 --> 32:10.700
And now we get to see them coupled up with Cosmic.

32:11.460 --> 32:15.180
This team, they have the talent to go as far as they want to.

32:15.180 --> 32:19.180
Let's see if they can actually put it together so far for the first minute here.

32:19.180 --> 32:20.180
Rather uneventful.

32:20.180 --> 32:24.180
A couple of demos here or there for both teams really just trying to kind of feel out this first game.

32:24.180 --> 32:26.180
I know it's a stereotype, but it is for a reason.

32:26.180 --> 32:29.180
With two teams that have faced off against each other so many times,

32:29.180 --> 32:31.180
there are going to be some little growing pains here or there.

32:31.180 --> 32:33.180
It's a new roster for both of these teams.

32:33.180 --> 32:35.180
Feeds gets added to the Ball State roster.

32:35.180 --> 32:37.180
We already talked about the change that have happened for West Virginia

32:37.180 --> 32:40.180
and changes that are still ever present and ongoing.

32:40.180 --> 32:44.180
I do think though, first goal should be to Ball State, if not for the demo.

32:44.180 --> 32:51.180
Break away with 1v1 with Devo, that's going to have to be a hard 50 and he does not find it, so West Virginia get away with one early here in Game 1.

32:51.180 --> 33:01.180
Yeah, don't forget about that demo spawn, you get to choose where you go, and that was certainly affected and not saved from Oath, but passing plays could be affected as well.

33:01.180 --> 33:06.180
Had Oath not snipped that one out and it gets the interception.

33:06.180 --> 33:08.180
One, flowing out of midfield.

33:08.180 --> 33:10.180
Thought back to Oathish.

33:10.180 --> 33:12.180
I was going to say, should be fine.

33:12.180 --> 33:14.180
It's a bit of an awkward catch on the backboard.

33:14.180 --> 33:16.180
Tries to pinch it out, but with no boost, can't get further than midfield.

33:16.180 --> 33:18.180
People are going to take that back boost as well.

33:18.180 --> 33:21.180
So it looks like a bit of boost starvation now against Ball State.

33:21.180 --> 33:25.180
Pinch on target is actually going to turn into an own goal.

33:25.180 --> 33:27.180
I think that West Virginia thought they had that one easily,

33:27.180 --> 33:30.180
but two players ricochet it right in front of the net.

33:30.180 --> 33:34.180
This is bringing me back to the first match of CRL.

33:34.180 --> 33:37.860
Sorry gyro, but that own goal that he scored at West Virginia

33:37.860 --> 33:41.480
They're just a little bit cursed when it comes to the own goal wing

33:41.480 --> 33:44.500
I give them the benefit of the doubt though. Those pitches can be rough

33:45.500 --> 33:47.900
It's not CRO if we don't have at least one own goal

33:47.900 --> 33:51.340
I'm surprised to see it be the one that opens up the series, but that's fine

33:51.340 --> 33:55.860
West Virginia have plenty of time to respond here and so do ball state if they want to try and get another

33:56.140 --> 33:59.760
That's out to the corner do himself. It's got tons of moves, but nobody's center

33:59.760 --> 34:01.480
so now we'll just send it wayward.

34:01.480 --> 34:03.040
Out the gov, a heavy touch,

34:03.040 --> 34:04.160
but you should be able to get back to it

34:04.160 --> 34:05.520
with probably looking for a reset,

34:05.520 --> 34:07.840
but with too committing for WVU and low boost,

34:07.840 --> 34:09.480
this gets earned to even further problems.

34:09.480 --> 34:10.320
Back into their own half,

34:10.320 --> 34:12.760
ball state will go, get challenged by Devo,

34:12.760 --> 34:14.520
not as good a challenge by Max.

34:14.520 --> 34:16.200
However, nobody from ball state gonna go for this,

34:16.200 --> 34:19.000
so clear airspace or Cosmit looking to get this center

34:19.000 --> 34:20.840
can't find the bump, the pinch back out,

34:20.840 --> 34:22.440
goes back into West Virginia's half,

34:22.440 --> 34:24.280
and we reset again.

34:24.280 --> 34:26.720
I'm maybe just with that new dev boost

34:26.720 --> 34:28.560
that would have been enough

34:28.560 --> 34:34.280
speed to get him to the goal line, but not quite gonna have to rely on some skill as well.

34:34.280 --> 34:38.920
Well, Devo's the guy you look for for that top recruit from the high school league for

34:38.920 --> 34:39.920
this season.

34:39.920 --> 34:40.920
Nearly made it happen.

34:40.920 --> 34:43.240
How about the follow up from Cosmic?

34:43.240 --> 34:46.800
We said it was only a matter of time and it's not surprising that Cosmic's the one

34:46.800 --> 34:47.800
to do so.

34:47.800 --> 34:50.440
Great 50 here from Matho, baits out two different players.

34:50.440 --> 34:52.880
Mat immediately goes headhunting and doesn't even need to.

34:52.880 --> 34:55.120
The third player is respawning or going for boost.

34:55.120 --> 34:58.000
I can't really see out of the peripheral, but it doesn't matter.

34:58.000 --> 35:01.600
Nobody's home, it's one to one, and we've got a ball game tied now with who to go.

35:02.880 --> 35:06.960
It's about underestimating these first year's Phoebes.

35:07.600 --> 35:09.640
Almost had something off the kickoff.

35:10.040 --> 35:13.440
I just love bringing the limelight onto those first years,

35:13.440 --> 35:19.320
joining us here, Devo and Phoebes, to really making waves so far in this series.

35:19.320 --> 35:22.320
But for West Virginia, it's about continuing to limit those mistakes

35:22.320 --> 35:25.280
and maybe limit their ability to be demoed.

35:25.520 --> 35:27.320
That's two on the side from Ball State.

35:27.320 --> 35:31.220
Just chasing him the entire way down the pitch there at that point a little bit awkward

35:31.220 --> 35:32.840
But honestly it's gonna work out for both teams

35:32.840 --> 35:37.400
They got a chance to reset here grab some booze and we get back this midfield play that has been so hotly contested

35:37.400 --> 35:39.920
Oh, don't look me something more ask back out

35:39.920 --> 35:44.560
I should get awkwardly on the top of God's car means thieves now needs to be careful

35:44.840 --> 35:51.200
Cosman running some interference. Where's the follow-up from West Virginia to blocked out by fiends despite the interference will make a great stop

35:51.400 --> 35:53.120
Maybe now transition it the other way

35:53.120 --> 35:55.760
no pinch right back into the ball state half.

35:55.760 --> 35:57.080
It does kind of feel like West Virginia

35:57.080 --> 35:59.080
are starting to find some comfort in this game.

35:59.080 --> 36:00.760
They're stealing boost, they're keeping possession

36:00.760 --> 36:03.680
for longer times, and ball state need to find an answer.

36:03.680 --> 36:05.120
They're also adding to those demos,

36:05.120 --> 36:07.680
and that's going to force mistakes out of ball state

36:07.680 --> 36:11.080
a team that we haven't really seen make many mistakes.

36:11.080 --> 36:15.240
So under their own plan, they'll be nearly flawless,

36:15.240 --> 36:17.920
but with this disruption from West Virginia,

36:17.920 --> 36:19.720
that could change.

36:19.720 --> 36:20.960
Cosmic out to Devo.

36:20.960 --> 36:24.560
Devo's there, skim gonna go on target, but gah in the way.

36:24.560 --> 36:28.880
Follow up from feet, another safe for him, but the onslaught's not done, and that's a

36:28.880 --> 36:33.320
mischallenge, meaning Devo can lead the way for Cosmic, but the bump's not enough.

36:33.320 --> 36:37.760
Under a minute to play, shots firing against the ball state, net none of them making it

36:37.760 --> 36:38.760
on target.

36:38.760 --> 36:42.560
Devo gonna try again through the corner, finks another good 50, Matt with a full

36:42.560 --> 36:46.640
tank of boo should win this 50, and kinda does, but it's up to Cosmic to recover.

36:46.640 --> 36:51.640
Like resetting the bag is gonna use it, no fakes it out, pass out to Devo, just not enough power.

36:51.640 --> 36:54.640
And once again, Ball State just hanging on for dear lives.

36:54.640 --> 36:56.640
They're hanging on, but they're taking risks as well.

36:56.640 --> 37:00.640
I mean moments ago, Gull was upfield stealing, boost and bumping,

37:00.640 --> 37:02.640
even when they were suffering on their own backline.

37:02.640 --> 37:06.640
Ball State, they're not playing for OT, they're playing for that counter attack.

37:06.640 --> 37:09.640
Let's see, can they do something with the counter attack here?

37:09.640 --> 37:13.640
Or does Devo get a full court dribble? Not enough.

37:13.640 --> 37:19.640
We're here for Oath though. He doesn't have a ton of boost. If he can't get to this, it should at least be an extended shot for WVU.

37:19.640 --> 37:25.640
I do not blame the second man there. You're not expecting Matt to get a perfect pinch out center, but instead we head to overtime.

37:25.640 --> 37:30.640
O'Teeb's about what we expected from these two teams that are...

37:30.640 --> 37:37.640
HURSTY FOR THE WIN! A VICTORY! Who was more hungry than Oath?

37:37.640 --> 37:49.640
You just got a feel for WVU, you are not expecting Oath to just come popping out in midfield and perfectly put it on target 64 miles an hour, a laser at the net will determine game one.

37:49.640 --> 37:50.640
Wow.

37:50.640 --> 37:55.640
Well, well, well, get it to the midfield for Oath to throw out that redirect.

37:55.640 --> 38:01.640
I mean, the best skim, the best redirect that we saw that game was Divo, a close one to take the lead in regulation.

38:01.640 --> 38:04.640
And Oath just says, hey, I'll do you one better.

38:04.640 --> 38:09.600
It's kind of crazy to think that that really was West Virginia's game to win and lose there

38:09.600 --> 38:16.640
They put up 10 total shots Ball State get only three, but they hit two out of the three truly goes to shows just pressure pressure pressure

38:16.640 --> 38:22.880
But not enough we talked about the inaccuracy of West Virginia amongst a handful of those different offensive plays

38:22.880 --> 38:24.840
But it just really wasn't enough

38:24.840 --> 38:28.320
They need to do something a little bit more because we have seven saves against it

38:28.320 --> 38:32.000
It means that what like two of those shots were really of quality to actually get past them

38:32.000 --> 38:36.200
There's not a lot of West Virginia were throwing at ball state that actually caught them by surprise

38:36.200 --> 38:40.200
Which can make sense these two teams have faced off. I think a million times at this point

38:40.200 --> 38:42.200
They should be relatively familiar with one another

38:42.240 --> 38:44.360
That's what I'm saying go oath and guard players

38:44.360 --> 38:52.100
Especially that you can rely on in moments like that to handle the pressure. There was a lot of resiliency in this team during that match

38:52.100 --> 38:58.320
Yes, they had to make multiple saves, but they had a clean sheet to get there to overtime and then to win

38:58.320 --> 39:00.280
That's the scary thing about Ball State.

39:00.280 --> 39:03.820
You think they bend enough to break, but they just don't.

39:03.820 --> 39:05.360
Not quite, and that's why Ball State

39:05.360 --> 39:07.520
has continued to make it in the lean play year after year

39:07.520 --> 39:08.600
after year after year.

39:08.600 --> 39:10.800
Despite Novanta's best efforts to try and curse them

39:10.800 --> 39:13.160
and remove them from lean play altogether,

39:13.160 --> 39:14.560
they cannot be stopped.

39:14.560 --> 39:15.840
West Virginia, though, however,

39:15.840 --> 39:17.800
have proven themselves stoppable many times

39:17.800 --> 39:19.680
since the team we've touted as best in the nation

39:19.680 --> 39:21.520
and they don't always seem to be able to live up

39:21.520 --> 39:22.600
to those expectations.

39:22.600 --> 39:24.800
Can they do it here and give us a series?

39:24.800 --> 39:26.800
Game two officially underway in Prevent Temple

39:26.800 --> 39:31.120
and uh somebody's gonna shoot this right like at least a shot on target that'll

39:31.120 --> 39:35.280
technically count but boy what a weird start I mean they didn't hit the ball and kick off

39:35.280 --> 39:39.760
and now they're not hitting it on defense and they nearly stored from across the pitch

39:40.320 --> 39:44.640
completely normal start here to get to it's CRL man this is what we love and expect to

39:44.640 --> 39:48.080
get the C and CRL stands for chaos and occasionally the chaos can lead to some

39:48.080 --> 39:52.160
interesting moments no interesting moments to the first 30 here double demo though will

39:52.160 --> 39:56.920
lead space were Phoebes, but you got kid, flip reset out center, that's not going to be

39:56.920 --> 40:01.400
enough, but go back to the full tank, who should be able to corral this?

40:01.400 --> 40:05.520
Just catch here from Matt, beautiful first touch, he saw Cosmic on field, trying to, oh

40:05.520 --> 40:11.120
get the demo respawn, and get them again, tons of disruption still from West Virginia,

40:11.120 --> 40:13.760
their problem is they just can't capitalize from it.

40:13.760 --> 40:17.080
Pass out center does absolutely nothing, Cosmic somehow on the receiving end of it

40:17.080 --> 40:21.200
and gets, oh my goodness, what a reset, can't blame Devo for not getting to that

40:21.200 --> 40:23.200
I think he was expecting a lighter touch.

40:23.200 --> 40:25.200
What do you expect here? How about an open net?

40:25.200 --> 40:28.200
Matt gets a freebie from the Devo demo.

40:28.200 --> 40:31.200
And there's a huge sigh of relief here for West Virginia.

40:31.200 --> 40:33.200
They're thinking how many demos, how many boost steels,

40:33.200 --> 40:36.200
what else is needed to score?

40:36.200 --> 40:40.200
Finally get one in their bag here, a minute intended.

40:40.200 --> 40:43.200
Alright, firstly we're going to see, finally,

40:43.200 --> 40:46.200
see if maybe they can hold on to this one with four minutes to go.

40:46.200 --> 40:48.200
Osbuk with a full tank and full airspace.

40:48.200 --> 40:50.200
Yeah, I'm thinking this will go pretty well for them.

40:50.200 --> 40:54.240
for them. He gets around at least one. Offward, I'm not going to call it double commit, but

40:54.240 --> 40:57.680
Thieves and Oath in similar positions means this shouldn't be a free transition and it's

40:57.680 --> 41:01.800
not. A couple of fifties out of midfield are going to contest, but Guff will take a boost

41:01.800 --> 41:05.440
and get stoned out the way. Devo's there, both didn't get a touch on it. That is

41:05.440 --> 41:09.360
a guaranteed goal to West Virginia. They still might find one. Shot from Matt goes

41:09.360 --> 41:14.000
a bit wide though. That was the second shot from Matt, from the elbow that was

41:14.000 --> 41:18.760
really off. And those are not necessarily shots that have to be top corner perfectly

41:18.760 --> 41:21.940
They slotted right on target, but they kind of are shots

41:21.940 --> 41:23.480
that you want to apply more pressure.

41:23.480 --> 41:25.320
So I'm looking for that precision

41:25.320 --> 41:26.720
to improve over the series.

41:26.720 --> 41:28.960
I think that's one thing that West Virginia kind of struggled

41:28.960 --> 41:30.720
with in this game, though, is that in game one,

41:30.720 --> 41:32.240
they were just firing shots at net

41:32.240 --> 41:33.800
and constantly having to follow up.

41:33.800 --> 41:34.720
Game two, it feels like they're

41:34.720 --> 41:36.200
trying to be a bit more precise with them.

41:36.200 --> 41:37.640
So look, this is up to the audience.

41:37.640 --> 41:39.760
They can decide which one they prefer in the current moment.

41:39.760 --> 41:40.800
But it's really up to West Virginia

41:40.800 --> 41:42.800
to figure out which one's going to be more successful.

41:42.800 --> 41:44.840
A disruption plate is definitely working, though.

41:44.840 --> 41:46.320
A team pump between the and the is

41:46.320 --> 41:48.360
going to leave them even further on defense.

41:48.360 --> 41:52.920
They're the only one with any boost in the tank and he has to try and get a 50 just to survive.

41:53.760 --> 42:00.960
Left placement for Moth's gonna help them for a second, but are they gonna be able to keep this ball in a less dangerous territory?

42:00.960 --> 42:02.960
Where is the exit route for Ball State?

42:02.960 --> 42:04.760
Is there any at all?

42:04.760 --> 42:06.660
And still they remain under pressure.

42:06.660 --> 42:11.460
Cosmic gets a great shot there from the corner just off the mark.

42:11.460 --> 42:12.460
All goes back to mid.

42:12.460 --> 42:16.460
Another redirect from Ball State gives them some room to breathe.

42:16.460 --> 42:17.740
They just need the boost, man.

42:17.740 --> 42:19.100
Both of those midfield boost grabs

42:19.100 --> 42:20.380
are going to be huge for Ball State.

42:20.380 --> 42:21.980
The problem is they might have to use all of them

42:21.980 --> 42:23.500
just to keep it off their half.

42:23.500 --> 42:24.740
They'll finally pick up some boost,

42:24.740 --> 42:26.020
but he's 50 out by Defoe,

42:26.020 --> 42:28.140
and Oath doesn't have any boost to work with.

42:28.140 --> 42:29.480
And that's the problem with getting boost off.

42:29.480 --> 42:30.660
It's not just, oh, pick up a pad,

42:30.660 --> 42:32.020
we're back and we're ready to go.

42:32.020 --> 42:33.060
You have to use that boost

42:33.060 --> 42:34.140
in order to get off your half

42:34.140 --> 42:35.100
and start an offense.

42:35.100 --> 42:36.660
And Ball State did not do that.

42:36.660 --> 42:38.500
Great catch from Cosmic's going to send it back

42:38.500 --> 42:39.780
into the Ball State half,

42:39.780 --> 42:43.020
and more offense now blossoming for West Virginia.

42:43.020 --> 42:45.340
So much to prove here for West Virginia

42:45.340 --> 42:51.180
this changing lineup just to say that hey we figured it out this is the three

42:51.180 --> 42:57.180
men roster right here that we want to prove they have to release those doubts

42:57.180 --> 43:02.620
or quell them with a game with a play like this another stretch play from

43:02.620 --> 43:07.140
cosmic that does get them back in territory Debo centering for Matt Matt

43:07.140 --> 43:11.780
first touch gets out of the way he's just not able to keep it under wraps but

43:11.780 --> 43:16.860
this one from cosmic gets so close speed saves the day I gotta point out I think

43:16.860 --> 43:19.100
that map play was a little bit more coordinated than maybe some of the

43:19.100 --> 43:21.860
audience was expecting he's thinking does come off the backboard for a

43:21.860 --> 43:24.460
challenge when you realize good doesn't have boost to make the challenge okay

43:24.460 --> 43:28.660
cool tosses the backboard force you to make one and keep all state on their

43:28.660 --> 43:31.620
toes or I guess the wheel wells I don't really know you want to call it

43:31.620 --> 43:34.900
at this point the brims technically either way they're out of resources and

43:34.900 --> 43:37.900
they are definitely without direction right now feels like every play is

43:37.900 --> 43:41.420
completely disjointed outside of that one great passing play out center

43:41.420 --> 43:45.140
the West Virginia for their first test of defense all game pass with flying colors.

43:45.140 --> 43:49.140
And it's the firepower on the clock counter attack that you got to worry about.

43:49.140 --> 43:50.620
What's he got to worry about, Thebes?

43:50.620 --> 43:53.900
He's trying to get that perfect 50 to center the ball to his team.

43:53.900 --> 43:56.780
This is really the point of the ball game for Ball State,

43:56.780 --> 44:00.380
where they have to equalize Debo though.

44:00.380 --> 44:05.340
That touch, Thebes takes it away and Ball State are on the problems again.

44:05.340 --> 44:09.020
Thebes, not a lot of boost here, so Cosmic should be safe.

44:09.020 --> 44:14.000
Good 50 from Otho on low boost as well is going to force it back into the backboard for West Virginia.

44:14.000 --> 44:17.220
Devo great reset. Is he going to find another? He does!

44:17.220 --> 44:19.260
Fabe's lucky to get in the way.

44:19.260 --> 44:22.780
With 15 to play this is West Virginia's last chance off the backboard.

44:22.780 --> 44:24.960
Low boost on Fabe's who's going to make the challenge.

44:24.960 --> 44:29.960
It's technically mad, but it ricochets off to one of the Ball State players so maybe a counter attack for them.

44:29.960 --> 44:32.700
Gaw keeps it close. Can't get it around Devo.

44:32.700 --> 44:34.740
Where's the follow from another Ball State player?

44:34.740 --> 44:38.960
Not quite there to the corner. It will go and likely to OT we will go.

44:38.960 --> 44:47.080
Let's feed what you got pass out the gum matting the way Cosmic gonna spike this one down and indeed West Virginia will take game number two

44:47.840 --> 44:52.780
Alright, I mean ball state. They were fired up in that final minute West Virginia as you mentioned

44:53.200 --> 44:56.560
The test of defense didn't come until the end of the game

44:56.560 --> 45:03.160
But they did pass with flying colors and it is that flying of the West Virginia team that I want to talk about

45:03.160 --> 45:06.120
That's making this game so difficult for ball state because

45:06.120 --> 45:11.160
is, Bask, which player would you least like to have with the ball in the air?

45:11.160 --> 45:12.720
I don't think I could pick one.

45:12.720 --> 45:16.880
They all set a perfect 50-50s in the air.

45:16.880 --> 45:19.840
We saw that double flip reset at the end from Devo.

45:19.840 --> 45:21.640
They're all threatening.

45:21.640 --> 45:22.640
And this is the problem.

45:22.640 --> 45:25.760
This is that West Virginia, I think, half-figured out their attack in game number two.

45:25.760 --> 45:29.320
It is, hey, Cosmic, you want to just go annoy the entire other team?

45:29.320 --> 45:30.320
Cool.

45:30.320 --> 45:31.320
Take seven shots.

45:31.320 --> 45:32.320
Continue to get demoed.

45:32.320 --> 45:34.160
Just absolutely harass the team.

45:34.160 --> 45:36.080
Whenever Matt and Divo do need to get involved,

45:36.080 --> 45:38.120
it's free airspace, it's easy passes,

45:38.120 --> 45:40.880
it's a great way to control the pace of the game

45:40.880 --> 45:42.240
as well as the boost thrills here.

45:42.240 --> 45:44.360
This resource battle is being won by West Virginia

45:44.360 --> 45:46.600
and I don't think it's like, oh, we're seeing like,

45:46.600 --> 45:48.560
you know, 60% of the boost West Virginia,

45:48.560 --> 45:50.720
40% of all state, I think it's like 90-10 right now.

45:50.720 --> 45:52.200
Ball state is just getting outclassed

45:52.200 --> 45:53.640
when it comes to boost starvation

45:53.640 --> 45:57.200
as well as also just resource management in general.

45:57.200 --> 45:59.240
I can tell you, you mentioned the shots.

45:59.240 --> 46:01.520
It's pretty even on demos.

46:01.520 --> 46:03.040
And if you know about the new update in the game

46:03.040 --> 46:05.800
You can change the scoreboard.

46:05.800 --> 46:08.160
Instead of shots, you could look at crossbar hits

46:08.160 --> 46:10.120
just to know how many times you're whiffing.

46:10.120 --> 46:12.280
But I replace shots with demos.

46:12.280 --> 46:14.040
And now I can't see shots.

46:14.040 --> 46:15.720
So I'm going to rely on you for that one

46:15.720 --> 46:17.160
as we get to game three.

46:17.160 --> 46:20.080
And see if maybe we can find some more shots on both sides here.

46:20.080 --> 46:22.200
I'd love to see Ball State with a quick response.

46:22.200 --> 46:26.280
And they will find it off the backboard, off the kickoff,

46:26.280 --> 46:28.000
and Ball State up early.

46:28.000 --> 46:29.480
Is that Ball State or was that you?

46:29.480 --> 46:29.840
I don't know.

46:29.840 --> 46:33.080
It felt like you spunk that into existence either way.

46:33.080 --> 46:35.520
Love the way that Thieves generated that play,

46:35.520 --> 46:37.080
kind of baiting in the players

46:37.080 --> 46:39.120
to get that off the backboard for his team.

46:40.480 --> 46:41.760
Let's see if maybe West Virginia

46:41.760 --> 46:43.840
can find a way to respond in kind quickly.

46:43.840 --> 46:46.640
That is Ball State's first goal since game number one,

46:46.640 --> 46:48.320
so it's been a while for them

46:48.320 --> 46:50.120
throughout not nearly as long for West Virginia,

46:50.120 --> 46:51.920
but they did only get one goal last game,

46:51.920 --> 46:54.480
so it's definitely been chances far and few between.

46:54.480 --> 46:57.000
Second chance here for, you gotta be kidding me.

46:57.000 --> 46:57.920
Oh my.

46:57.920 --> 46:58.760
Oh, it's not in.

46:58.760 --> 47:02.760
Okay, it is. Alright, um, whatever that was is gonna equalize.

47:03.760 --> 47:12.760
And this just hurts for Ball State because not only do you finally score since Game 1, but then you immediately concede to a play like that.

47:12.760 --> 47:14.760
That's when you just gotta shrug off.

47:14.760 --> 47:21.760
I'm gonna shrug and keep it moving, because I don't have any other words to describe whatever just happened at this point.

47:21.760 --> 47:24.760
At least it gives us a tie ball game and some more interesting play.

47:24.760 --> 47:30.260
Matt's trying to go for another pin. West Virginia, you can score from passing place. You don't have to pinch it on target.

47:31.300 --> 47:38.880
Okay, but pitches are fun and they're the thing that cost the own goal for West Virginia in-game one, so it's a proven method.

47:38.880 --> 47:40.880
Go for the pinch, boys!

47:41.000 --> 47:45.480
All right, like, come on. Somebody, uh, somebody proved Pyro wrong. I can't have him be correct about pinches.

47:45.480 --> 47:47.780
We just can't let that happen. Just score a world in here.

47:48.480 --> 47:51.920
Or not. I guess just get the entire defense West Virginia to commit.

47:51.920 --> 47:54.600
Nobody puts a shot on target till it's too late. Oath is there.

47:54.600 --> 47:57.640
Thieves with a reset shot on target, denied by Mad.

47:57.640 --> 48:02.040
And I would say we've returned a normal seed, but ain't nothing normal about whatever is happening.

48:02.040 --> 48:04.980
Uh-uh. No, there is an open net for quite some time.

48:04.980 --> 48:09.580
Thieves recognize that, and eventually generated a shot for his team.

48:09.580 --> 48:11.820
It's good to Oath to take the lead back.

48:11.820 --> 48:15.040
See, here's the surprising part. Most of what just happened wouldn't count as a shot.

48:15.040 --> 48:18.260
Only four registered shots in this game, that being one of them.

48:18.260 --> 48:21.500
So it was really just Ball State hammering the backboard over and over again.

48:21.500 --> 48:24.140
And as West Virginia expected the shots to go on targets,

48:24.140 --> 48:25.180
and they do not.

48:25.180 --> 48:26.820
Three and a half minutes to go in this game,

48:26.820 --> 48:30.460
I have to imagine this is going to continue to turn

48:30.460 --> 48:31.620
into a flurry of goals.

48:31.620 --> 48:33.180
Because yet we got what?

48:33.180 --> 48:35.420
Three goals, the first like two games,

48:35.420 --> 48:38.100
and now we're here with three goals in a minute.

48:38.100 --> 48:40.540
And that's the beauty of this e-sport.

48:40.540 --> 48:43.780
Is you think you pretty much figured out the play styles

48:43.780 --> 48:45.100
and how they'll clash.

48:45.100 --> 48:47.820
Though it's going to turn right on its head

48:47.820 --> 48:49.460
for the next game, Ball State

48:49.460 --> 48:53.480
were hacked in to their defensive path in the last couple of games.

48:53.480 --> 48:56.440
And now it seems like they've broken through.

48:56.440 --> 48:59.840
Good fate for Matt, or at least that's what I think just happened there.

48:59.840 --> 49:02.560
Again, a lot of thinking going on, not a lot of actual analysis,

49:02.560 --> 49:05.100
is I'm trying to read this game and failing to do so.

49:05.100 --> 49:05.960
That should have been a bump.

49:05.960 --> 49:07.000
I can at least read that.

49:07.000 --> 49:08.200
Nobody makes contact, though.

49:08.200 --> 49:12.400
So go up, clear space, a shot on target in cosmic to turn it away.

49:12.400 --> 49:14.280
Morsay's being forced out of West Virginia.

49:14.280 --> 49:16.640
That's the third down for cosmic alone.

49:16.640 --> 49:20.240
Devo trying to change that great start to the air dribble, but two players back.

49:20.240 --> 49:23.720
Need to note, definitely winning the boost battle in this game in comparison to the last,

49:23.720 --> 49:27.440
but a blockward fifties back pass, goes to nobody.

49:27.440 --> 49:28.880
Devo is hoping for the boost at mid.

49:28.880 --> 49:31.440
It doesn't spawn and goes back to his own corner.

49:31.440 --> 49:35.280
And without that back pass being received, that is the end of the West Virginia offense.

49:35.280 --> 49:37.120
I think it still ended up being the right play.

49:37.120 --> 49:43.960
I mean, you don't give your opponents the ball to work their way back to the other side of the field.

49:43.960 --> 49:45.600
And the Leafs generate a fifth feed.

49:45.600 --> 49:46.100
That's sad.

49:46.100 --> 49:47.920
The ball's gone back and forth since then.

49:47.920 --> 49:48.920
It feeds it back on.

49:48.920 --> 49:50.760
Oh, what a first-touch pass, one.

49:50.760 --> 49:53.160
But don't pass the second yet.

49:53.160 --> 49:56.360
Late to receive for the follow-up shot.

49:56.360 --> 49:57.920
Cosmick trying to get this off the half,

49:57.920 --> 49:59.000
or at least out of the corner.

49:59.000 --> 50:01.320
He's not successful in either of those two ventures.

50:01.320 --> 50:02.480
But that might be.

50:02.480 --> 50:03.360
He gets it off the half.

50:03.360 --> 50:05.360
He has low boos, but a 1v1 versus God,

50:05.360 --> 50:07.400
he seems to be passing with flying colors.

50:07.400 --> 50:09.000
50-50, not going to be found.

50:09.000 --> 50:10.160
It's technically a fake out.

50:10.160 --> 50:12.440
And now, all the balls stay panicking a little bit.

50:12.440 --> 50:15.880
low boost, multiple players swarming but nobody finds a shot.

50:15.880 --> 50:18.360
I do like that Thieves avoided the demolition there

50:18.360 --> 50:20.880
or at least the bump from cosmic with the jump.

50:20.880 --> 50:21.840
I think it's time to wave that,

50:21.840 --> 50:23.560
but it worked out nonetheless.

50:23.560 --> 50:25.400
Thieves once again caught on no boost

50:25.400 --> 50:26.840
and that forces God to jump.

50:26.840 --> 50:27.880
He can make it happen.

50:27.880 --> 50:30.280
Thieves found that container,

50:30.280 --> 50:32.360
who found the 50-50 as well

50:32.360 --> 50:36.280
and it's back to all state defense, more saves.

50:36.280 --> 50:37.480
If those shot on target,

50:37.480 --> 50:39.040
that will definitely not be enough.

50:39.040 --> 50:41.480
Guy will send this all the way to the opposite corner

50:41.480 --> 50:43.400
And I don't like that touch either.

50:43.400 --> 50:44.720
I do like that demo.

50:44.720 --> 50:46.240
That should give space now for Cosmic,

50:46.240 --> 50:47.760
because he picks up the mid boost too.

50:47.760 --> 50:49.800
He's got a couple of fifties and maybe a boost steal.

50:49.800 --> 50:52.080
I think that's what he's going for, and he will find it.

50:52.080 --> 50:53.440
This is what West Virginia needs to do,

50:53.440 --> 50:55.040
start starving Ball State again.

50:55.040 --> 50:56.920
That's how they succeeded in game two.

50:56.920 --> 50:59.240
It is definitely not something that's been a priority

50:59.240 --> 51:00.440
here in game three.

51:00.440 --> 51:01.720
Couple of interference plays.

51:01.720 --> 51:03.880
Bump Steer is there, and more boost stealing is starting

51:03.880 --> 51:05.480
to put West Virginia right on the back,

51:05.480 --> 51:06.920
back on the right track.

51:06.920 --> 51:08.320
But unfortunately with 70 seconds to go,

51:08.320 --> 51:10.240
they got to hustle.

51:10.240 --> 51:14.240
Keep in mind as well, I mean, we're getting that double header today from Ball State.

51:14.240 --> 51:19.760
If they can win this game and the next, they'll have some serious momentum working into that second match.

51:19.760 --> 51:22.080
But another stop passing plays like that.

51:22.080 --> 51:23.720
Cosmic couldn't connect.

51:23.720 --> 51:27.480
The follow for Devo will get lost from both.

51:27.480 --> 51:30.680
Good second touch from Otto is going to force West Virginia to restart.

51:30.680 --> 51:34.280
Low boost still for most of the players on Ball State are going to be a problem here.

51:34.280 --> 51:37.680
But at least it gives them some time to grab something.

51:37.680 --> 51:38.840
Maybe they needed a little more.

51:38.840 --> 51:41.760
If that bump had found some contact, likely the equalizer.

51:41.760 --> 51:44.320
But instead, we play on 30 seconds to go.

51:44.320 --> 51:45.960
West Virginia, I said, now or never.

51:45.960 --> 51:49.320
But now it's twice as much that.

51:49.320 --> 51:54.240
Yes, West Virginia, you did get a gimme off the earlier goal.

51:54.240 --> 51:58.080
But now it feels like you need to generate that final goal.

51:58.080 --> 51:59.600
This is a shot from Devo.

51:59.600 --> 52:02.720
But he's extinguished off the field thereafter.

52:02.720 --> 52:03.960
They've got a way for that respawn.

52:03.960 --> 52:05.160
And here it is.

52:05.160 --> 52:06.160
Devo receives the ball.

52:06.160 --> 52:08.980
Oh, that's one has a full preset just down to the ground

52:08.980 --> 52:13.700
But somehow feeds the points that demo and saves now the balls on the other side of the field

52:14.080 --> 52:18.860
Another few demolitions we're averaging about four players on the field at once

52:20.440 --> 52:23.520
How about another game ending redirect?

52:24.080 --> 52:30.840
This is just salt in the wounds, but some pretty salt at that. What a redirect last second perfectly on target

52:30.840 --> 52:37.340
3-1, Ball State will clean up game number three, take the lead, and they are one away from upsetting West Virginia.

52:38.340 --> 52:44.340
I'll tell you what, Ball State's defense has been the biggest thing for me in this matchup.

52:44.340 --> 52:47.840
It felt like the whole theme was going to shift, right?

52:47.840 --> 52:54.840
Ball State come out swinging, got West Virginia pushed back, but then we kind of get back to the norm of can Ball State stop them?

52:54.840 --> 52:58.340
Can they stop Devo on these air dribbles in cosmic with these shots?

52:58.340 --> 53:02.300
and it seems like, yeah, they absolutely can.

53:02.300 --> 53:04.380
Thieves made some wonderful saves

53:04.380 --> 53:08.860
and some demo evasion tactics to survive in our last.

53:08.860 --> 53:11.980
Yeah, this is the best I've seen Paul State play so far

53:11.980 --> 53:13.500
and I think that's a credit to them,

53:13.500 --> 53:16.460
not necessarily a detriment to West Virginia's current play.

53:16.460 --> 53:17.620
But again, we've talked about this.

53:17.620 --> 53:19.460
This has been part of the reason that West Virginia,

53:19.460 --> 53:21.260
while probably being in conversation

53:21.260 --> 53:22.700
for one of the best teams in CRL,

53:22.700 --> 53:25.460
haven't quite cemented themselves in that position.

53:25.460 --> 53:27.180
The four players that they have on this roster,

53:27.180 --> 53:28.900
any three of them can be great,

53:28.900 --> 53:30.140
but they made a decision today

53:30.140 --> 53:31.740
to not have Gyro on the roster

53:31.740 --> 53:33.540
and instead bring in Matt.

53:33.540 --> 53:35.660
So far, I'm not gonna say Matt's played poorly,

53:35.660 --> 53:36.940
but he's been at the bottom of the scoreboard

53:36.940 --> 53:38.060
for two games in a row now.

53:38.060 --> 53:39.340
It's clear he's not as comfortable

53:39.340 --> 53:41.540
maybe against this team and he really needs to.

53:41.540 --> 53:43.420
It's the last chance here for West Virginia

53:43.420 --> 53:44.780
and like I stated before,

53:44.780 --> 53:46.740
is a team that is trying to get into conversation

53:46.740 --> 53:48.860
for top four, losing to a ball state

53:48.860 --> 53:50.900
who aren't even in like the top eight right now

53:50.900 --> 53:52.980
would not be a good look.

53:52.980 --> 53:54.580
Ball state definitely has that potential

53:54.580 --> 53:56.540
to take that fourth spot though.

53:56.540 --> 53:59.180
I mean, we talk about how top heavy the standings are.

53:59.180 --> 54:01.700
It's kind of the top three that's looking top heavy,

54:01.700 --> 54:05.180
especially if West Virginia could see this game.

54:05.180 --> 54:07.620
We're on the Tokyo for game four match point

54:07.620 --> 54:09.820
for Ball State's first match of the day.

54:09.820 --> 54:12.340
You've seen a lot of dreams die on the Tokyo.

54:12.340 --> 54:14.540
It is a very common ending round here

54:14.540 --> 54:16.780
for many of these players and teams.

54:16.780 --> 54:19.340
Would not be surprised to see it do the same here.

54:19.340 --> 54:21.820
You know, trying to change that as it's a great first touch

54:21.820 --> 54:23.180
and maybe even a great second touch.

54:23.180 --> 54:25.060
50 not found, fumes on low boosts,

54:25.060 --> 54:31.580
Lucky to get away with that one, but we'll survive for now as we start off game number four with eight lots of West Virginia offense

54:32.020 --> 54:36.700
Again those first years clash. I love seeing thieves and in divo

54:37.100 --> 54:42.860
Be contact on the ball at the same time just to see who is going to win over with that new impression

54:43.420 --> 54:49.380
Pression certainly being made on the goal line, but ball staying doing more of what their accustomed to is getting it out

54:49.380 --> 54:53.380
Cosmic, demoed for his troubles, that's not gonna feel great.

54:53.380 --> 54:57.380
Vivo, maybe he can avoid the demo here, he can at least get it past the first defender,

54:57.380 --> 55:01.380
but Oath actually, space for it to get back to himself somehow.

55:01.380 --> 55:04.380
And maybe get even further than that, 50, not gonna be found off the backboard,

55:04.380 --> 55:08.380
it's more ricochet back out of the feeds, and oh, feeds, that's not going to be enough

55:08.380 --> 55:11.380
unless you just get a freebie shot the other way.

55:11.380 --> 55:15.380
Y'all probably wasn't expecting that, I don't think anybody was expecting that touch.

55:15.380 --> 55:17.460
The top of the ceiling touch can be a little awkward.

55:17.460 --> 55:18.860
You don't want to bang it off the ceiling,

55:18.860 --> 55:20.460
so it goes right back down,

55:20.460 --> 55:22.180
but it's also hard to get a line drive.

55:22.180 --> 55:23.900
So that touch up from Thebes

55:23.900 --> 55:26.460
wasn't the worst play generation.

55:26.460 --> 55:29.740
In fact, Thebes has had the best shot generation

55:29.740 --> 55:31.860
for this team, setting up their teammates.

55:31.860 --> 55:33.700
Oath is on the backboard, trying to get a bump.

55:33.700 --> 55:36.140
Maybe a boost steal can't get either,

55:36.140 --> 55:37.780
as he makes his way back.

55:37.780 --> 55:39.180
And that trying to get around at least one

55:39.180 --> 55:40.260
can't even do that.

55:40.260 --> 55:42.220
However, to commit for a ball state,

55:42.220 --> 55:43.340
so this could get a little awkward

55:43.340 --> 55:47.660
back past the defo is perfectly to him and oath does get the read off the

55:47.660 --> 55:50.660
backboard I wasn't expecting that I don't think Conn is was either he was

55:50.660 --> 55:53.460
already midway through his challenge so it's gonna make it awkward and maybe

55:53.460 --> 55:57.220
give an offense back to ball state as they send this off the backboard with

55:57.220 --> 56:01.740
the third player does there to keep it contained there's themes lurking but

56:01.740 --> 56:05.020
with low boost the good thing is it blinds its way back out to guff again

56:05.020 --> 56:08.540
and somehow ball state the crystals we have for game one where they just

56:08.540 --> 56:12.980
couldn't keep possession that is barely even a thought in my mind anymore

56:12.980 --> 56:16.220
You know, that's a flip reset shot saved by Devo.

56:16.220 --> 56:18.660
You're right, they are away from playing defense

56:18.660 --> 56:21.380
all the time, however, it is their transition defense.

56:21.380 --> 56:22.940
It scares me a little bit.

56:22.940 --> 56:25.700
Cosmic keeps boosting up and getting ready to demo

56:25.700 --> 56:27.860
the third player in the offensive rotation.

56:27.860 --> 56:31.420
He has been a menace with those bumps and demos today.

56:31.420 --> 56:33.220
West Virginia do have to keep,

56:33.220 --> 56:35.860
or Ball State have to keep that in the back of their mind.

56:35.860 --> 56:36.700
The good thing is though,

56:36.700 --> 56:39.540
Ball State are keeping their third way back right now,

56:39.540 --> 56:40.700
and it's very intentional.

56:40.700 --> 56:41.980
They recognize that a lot of touches

56:41.980 --> 56:45.180
West Virginia making on defense are extraordinarily heavy,

56:45.180 --> 56:47.580
so the ricochet back out to midfield allows them to keep

56:47.580 --> 56:50.300
that possession and keep calm through many of these attacks.

56:50.300 --> 56:51.980
West Virginia starting to mount an attack here,

56:51.980 --> 56:53.660
but I don't think it's gonna turn into much because

56:53.660 --> 56:56.580
Cosmic, wait a minute, gotta pass out center

56:56.580 --> 56:58.260
for multiple players back for Ball State,

56:58.260 --> 56:59.900
so they will not flinch.

56:59.900 --> 57:01.700
Follow-up shot, not gonna go on target,

57:01.700 --> 57:03.860
nor will it even find its way to the second man.

57:03.860 --> 57:05.340
And with another doinked-down field,

57:05.340 --> 57:08.300
it is Ball State resetting the pitch yet again.

57:08.300 --> 57:13.120
here for less Virginia to just be banging that ball off the backboard and

57:13.120 --> 57:17.480
sometimes it's great to set up the follow-up shot but other times you want to

57:17.480 --> 57:22.160
see the defense be tested you want to force players to use the boost and maybe

57:22.160 --> 57:25.840
make a poor save and put it in position for yourselves that these shots just

57:25.840 --> 57:30.320
have to start going on target for WVU. So far nothing's gone on target though

57:30.320 --> 57:32.760
we got about a hundred seconds left in this game and as much as we've been

57:32.760 --> 57:36.480
critical of WVU for their lack of ability to find offense here I'll

57:36.480 --> 57:38.040
I'll say that I haven't converted on anything,

57:38.040 --> 57:40.840
so they have to play defense like this for a full five minutes

57:40.840 --> 57:42.640
and just wait for their opportunity.

57:42.640 --> 57:44.520
It is something I would imagine WVU

57:44.520 --> 57:45.960
are going to be comfortable with.

57:45.960 --> 57:46.960
Touch goes down field.

57:46.960 --> 57:48.600
Finally, West Virginia might find something.

57:48.600 --> 57:49.800
But wait a minute.

57:49.800 --> 57:52.600
Oath catches this one and looks for the demo.

57:52.600 --> 57:54.080
I'm not sure if that was the right play,

57:54.080 --> 57:56.160
but it was definitely the coolest option.

57:56.160 --> 57:59.440
And Oath has made the coolest plays so far today

57:59.440 --> 58:00.120
with the redirects.

58:00.120 --> 58:02.360
How about one more on the flipper reset?

58:02.360 --> 58:03.440
Pass over to Gah.

58:03.440 --> 58:04.160
Shots there.

58:04.160 --> 58:05.400
Devo saves.

58:05.400 --> 58:08.840
The goal line warrior so far for West Virginia.

58:08.840 --> 58:11.600
Can they turn it around on the second touch from Cosmic?

58:11.600 --> 58:15.400
It goes back over to Matt, but he can't be thieves to the ball.

58:15.400 --> 58:18.360
I'm not 50-50, I think I'm gonna go in favor of West Virginia.

58:18.360 --> 58:22.000
A couple of good blocks in a row and maybe the goal.

58:22.000 --> 58:24.040
Matt, I don't care if that was intentional or not,

58:24.040 --> 58:26.280
that now becomes the coolest play of the day.

58:26.280 --> 58:28.000
What's a little bit like it though, Dave?

58:28.000 --> 58:30.560
You should hear Oath has to get it above Devo,

58:30.560 --> 58:34.160
but under Matt and couldn't make that happen.

58:34.160 --> 58:37.600
That goes from the bottom of the scoreboard to the top.

58:37.600 --> 58:41.920
Yeah, that's, I don't even really know how to react

58:41.920 --> 58:42.760
to that play.

58:42.760 --> 58:44.560
Hopefully a ball steak can react though,

58:44.560 --> 58:45.920
because with about a minute left to play,

58:45.920 --> 58:47.680
there is time for them to get a goal back

58:47.680 --> 58:49.360
and send us the OT.

58:49.360 --> 58:50.520
He's looking for it, good.

58:50.520 --> 58:52.880
Bump after the play, should send it to,

58:52.880 --> 58:54.520
okay, I was gonna say the third man,

58:54.520 --> 58:56.800
kind of second man, and it's kind of a goal.

58:56.800 --> 58:59.200
What is with the interference on the backboard right now?

58:59.200 --> 59:00.640
West Virginia, this is supposed to be

59:00.640 --> 59:02.400
your comfortable space.

59:02.400 --> 59:10.040
that there's demoing, there's bumping, and then there's just being a roadblock, and God, I gotta make, you played that one perfectly.

59:10.840 --> 59:12.400
That is, uh, wow.

59:13.040 --> 59:27.040
Ball State, props to you. I did not think it would take you maybe five seconds after the previous goal to get a goal and immediately get back into this game, but I guess that's, you know, trials and tribulations, a bunch of toil, keep on putting pressure, and eventually it'll work, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, all of those things.

59:27.160 --> 59:32.080
15 seconds to go, though, West Virginia might just shut me up, and the game, though, if they can find one last attempt.

59:32.080 --> 59:37.080
This one goes back out into the corner though, so Matt, long way to go with a decent amount of boots,

59:37.080 --> 59:40.080
but an immediate 50, and another one from Ball State.

59:40.080 --> 59:42.080
Can they maybe find the final shot instead?

59:42.080 --> 59:44.080
They should as this comes off the ceiling!

59:44.080 --> 59:48.080
Where's the second man not there in time, and we head to OT.

59:48.080 --> 59:54.080
Seven seconds is all it took for Oath to score for Ball State in that overtime prior.

59:54.080 --> 59:57.080
It was nearly the same there for Gabbadibo.

59:57.080 --> 01:00:02.520
It's it up. It's a reset sets up for the 50-50 Matt will play it to themselves

01:00:04.040 --> 01:00:06.040
The donation

01:00:06.560 --> 01:00:14.840
By Matt handing ball state the victory playing nearly five minutes of flawless defense and as soon as you get into OT

01:00:14.840 --> 01:00:19.960
You get a little bigger the lights are to play and you move up feel just a bit too quickly

01:00:20.280 --> 01:00:23.920
Ball state gonna punish WVU and once again

01:00:23.920 --> 01:00:28.160
Again, Ball State just seemed to have West Virginia's number.

01:00:28.160 --> 01:00:32.480
Experience paves off, go, go, sure.

01:00:32.480 --> 01:00:34.280
Got an oath.

01:00:34.280 --> 01:00:38.440
Fourth year with Ball State working true to a T,

01:00:38.440 --> 01:00:40.800
fitting thieves into this roster.

01:00:40.800 --> 01:00:45.760
And it was about limiting and minimizing those mistakes

01:00:45.760 --> 01:00:48.440
and forcing them out of WVU.

01:00:48.440 --> 01:00:50.640
West Virginia, got to be looking at that one

01:00:50.640 --> 01:00:53.400
and maybe thinking, rethinking, I should say.

01:00:53.400 --> 01:00:59.140
They're starting pre-roster again, the, I don't know, 15th time throughout this semester.

01:00:59.140 --> 01:01:02.260
Ball State, meanwhile, they have rethought their roster before the semester.

01:01:02.260 --> 01:01:05.760
They bring in Phoebes, and, uh, yeah, I think Phoebes did fine there.

01:01:05.760 --> 01:01:11.160
I'm just gonna make it very clear that, uh, I think he did a lot in that series as well as that game.

01:01:11.160 --> 01:01:16.000
You can see, he clearly wasn't the offense for the team, but he definitely was the defense, and that's how they kept him there.

01:01:16.000 --> 01:01:21.760
I kept talking about it. They would have a third man that was way far back because West Virginia were making these extraordinarily heavy touches.

01:01:21.760 --> 01:01:24.920
There was feeds there to clean up the mistakes, be there in recovery,

01:01:24.920 --> 01:01:27.560
and just make sure to keep possession in favor of Ball State.

01:01:27.560 --> 01:01:31.560
Again, Ball State really did not look like they were going to lose that game at any point.

01:01:31.560 --> 01:01:34.760
I'm just surprised that it took the final 30 seconds for them to put it all together.

01:01:36.280 --> 01:01:38.240
Yeah, listen, it was about resiliency.

01:01:38.240 --> 01:01:43.320
Again, they held off the pressure and then wanted against West Virginia.

01:01:43.440 --> 01:01:46.920
And my problem with WVU now is, of course, that changing roster,

01:01:46.920 --> 01:01:53.960
but also you need some kind of stability in that team to make sure those mistakes don't happen.

01:01:53.960 --> 01:01:58.600
Those were quick overtime losses, which means the pressure really did build against them.

01:01:58.600 --> 01:02:03.640
That first goal against them was that own goal off the pitch. It's just that stability really

01:02:03.640 --> 01:02:08.440
required out of this roster, and it really shined through when it came to Ball State.

01:02:09.000 --> 01:02:12.920
Good thing is I got good news for both teams. West Virginia, you're done for the day. You

01:02:12.920 --> 01:02:16.600
don't have to keep fighting. You're good. You can take a break. You can go and analyze

01:02:16.600 --> 01:02:20.560
that last game and figure out what went wrong. For Ball State, ride the momentum. When we

01:02:20.560 --> 01:02:24.880
come back, we've got even more games with Ball State and the rest of CRL. Don't go anywhere.

01:02:24.880 --> 01:02:26.120
We'll be back in just a moment.

01:02:46.600 --> 01:02:52.600
It's alright, I know it's soon, so we need to leave

01:02:52.600 --> 01:02:56.600
The fight is a mess, in your eyes

01:02:56.600 --> 01:03:02.600
Running around your head, there's a thousand enemies

01:03:02.600 --> 01:03:06.600
But there's a fire lighting up the dark

01:03:06.600 --> 01:03:09.600
We're gonna watch them fall

01:03:09.600 --> 01:03:14.600
Cause if you need a little while, you're fine

01:03:14.600 --> 01:03:16.600
I'll be the one you call

01:03:16.600 --> 01:03:18.600
Ooh, it's all right

01:03:18.600 --> 01:03:20.600
It's only human

01:03:20.600 --> 01:03:24.600
When the feeling overcomes

01:03:24.600 --> 01:03:28.600
Like a beat and another drum

01:03:29.600 --> 01:03:31.600
I'll be the one you call

01:03:31.600 --> 01:03:33.600
Ooh, it's all right

01:03:33.600 --> 01:03:35.600
It's only human

01:03:35.600 --> 01:03:39.600
When the feeling overrides

01:03:39.600 --> 01:03:43.600
Going deep into the night

01:03:44.600 --> 01:03:47.600
I'll be the one you call

01:03:50.600 --> 01:04:02.600
I'll be the one you call, wherever you are watching from

01:04:05.600 --> 01:04:09.600
I'll be the one you call, wherever you are watching from

01:04:09.600 --> 01:04:30.400
I know you wanted how it ends So that your body can begin

01:04:30.400 --> 01:04:34.400
Love you and love it, let it in

01:04:34.400 --> 01:04:37.400
Building a home for me, baby

01:04:37.400 --> 01:04:40.400
The four of us here stay open

01:04:40.400 --> 01:04:44.400
Cause there's a firelighting out the door

01:04:44.400 --> 01:04:48.400
We're gonna watch them fall

01:04:48.400 --> 01:04:52.400
And if you need a little wildest card

01:04:52.400 --> 01:04:55.400
I'll be the one you call

01:04:55.400 --> 01:04:59.400
Yeah there's a firelighting out the door

01:05:00.400 --> 01:05:03.200
We're gonna watch them fall

01:05:03.200 --> 01:05:07.700
And if you need a little wildcard

01:05:07.700 --> 01:05:10.200
I'll be the one you call

01:05:10.200 --> 01:05:14.200
Ooh, it's all right, it's all me and you

01:05:14.200 --> 01:05:18.200
When the feeling overcomes

01:05:18.200 --> 01:05:22.200
Like the feeling of a child

01:05:22.200 --> 01:05:25.200
I'll be the one you call

01:05:25.200 --> 01:05:29.200
Ooh, it's all right, it's all me and you

01:05:29.200 --> 01:05:33.200
I'm feeling all the bright

01:05:33.200 --> 01:05:37.200
Come and take me to the night

01:05:37.200 --> 01:05:40.200
I'll be the one you call

01:05:40.200 --> 01:05:43.200
Ooh, ooh, ooh

01:05:43.200 --> 01:05:45.200
Ooh, ooh, ooh

01:05:45.200 --> 01:05:47.200
It's your, your, your, your

01:05:47.200 --> 01:05:50.200
Ooh, ooh, ooh

01:05:50.200 --> 01:05:52.200
Ooh, ooh, ooh

01:05:52.200 --> 01:05:54.200
I'll be the one you call

01:05:54.200 --> 01:05:56.200
The whole world watching for

01:05:56.200 --> 01:05:58.200
Ooh, ooh, ooh

01:10:28.200 --> 01:10:36.680
Hello everyone, welcome back to CRL League play during the fall season.

01:10:36.680 --> 01:10:41.200
It is week three and I have Oath with me from Ball State.

01:10:41.200 --> 01:10:46.200
Ball State now going up to four in three in their league play standings.

01:10:46.200 --> 01:10:51.160
Oath, tell me, how do you feel after that series, especially with the last minute

01:10:51.160 --> 01:10:54.200
change up of Matt coming in for Jiro?

01:10:54.200 --> 01:11:00.280
Yeah, I mean, I think we knew West Virginia is always kind of a tough draw for us. Or at least it's always very close series

01:11:01.120 --> 01:11:03.120
You know, we very competitive

01:11:03.720 --> 01:11:06.560
But in terms like a last-minute switch up with their roster

01:11:06.560 --> 01:11:10.040
We kind of consider them as like a four-man roster like they have four players

01:11:10.440 --> 01:11:14.360
That are capable of playing at the highest level of serial. So it doesn't really matter just

01:11:15.080 --> 01:11:18.840
Which one of them plays it's more on our end. Just making sure we're prepared for whatever comes

01:11:18.840 --> 01:11:47.840
that's really good to hear. Yeah, a lot of the rosters this season, of course, have been a little bit more than just the three original starters. So that's something to always consider in the game plan. Now you're about, I would say, almost a little more than halfway through your league play. You're sitting at four and three. Of course, you have Northwood and Concord at top, currently undefeated. How do you feel your chances are in making that cut line of the top four so you don't have to go to the top four.

01:11:48.840 --> 01:11:52.080
go into those open last chance quals?

01:11:52.080 --> 01:11:53.240
Yeah.

01:11:53.240 --> 01:11:56.560
I think we like our chances.

01:11:56.560 --> 01:11:58.000
We've already played.

01:11:58.000 --> 01:11:59.440
I can't remember who played Concord yet,

01:11:59.440 --> 01:12:02.280
but I know we played Northwood, and we lost to them.

01:12:02.280 --> 01:12:04.080
Obviously, they're a great team.

01:12:04.080 --> 01:12:05.680
But I think the rest of our schedule,

01:12:05.680 --> 01:12:08.280
there's a lot of winnable matches, close matches,

01:12:08.280 --> 01:12:10.760
but things that we'll go into it with confidence.

01:12:10.760 --> 01:12:13.280
And I think we'll talk.

01:12:13.280 --> 01:12:16.560
Yeah, how does it feel having the opportunity now

01:12:16.560 --> 01:12:17.760
to be in that top four?

01:12:17.760 --> 01:12:21.920
You guys are most notable for always making kind of a lower bracket run.

01:12:21.920 --> 01:12:24.800
I mean, you've been on this roster a little while now.

01:12:24.800 --> 01:12:32.320
How good would it feel to make the upper echelon of the bracket not have to deal with those last second heroics?

01:12:32.320 --> 01:12:35.760
I mean, it would be pretty incredible not to have the pressure going through lowers.

01:12:35.760 --> 01:12:40.960
But, you know, whatever happens, we'll just show up on the day we play, you know,

01:12:40.960 --> 01:12:46.320
just show up and bring our best to the matches we play and just try to give our best.

01:12:46.320 --> 01:12:53.080
I want to open up the floor to you any last second thoughts, comments, questions for us,

01:12:53.080 --> 01:12:58.840
you know, trash talk, because we totally desk web, you know, whatever it is, floors yours.

01:12:58.840 --> 01:13:00.640
No, no trash talk towards the desk.

01:13:00.640 --> 01:13:05.680
I grab you guys sweep against us, you know, takes the pressure off a little bit.

01:13:05.680 --> 01:13:09.360
But you know, shout out my boy Adam.

01:13:09.360 --> 01:13:11.960
I know he's been having some trouble over there at Fisher and they tried to report

01:13:11.960 --> 01:13:12.960
a series against us.

01:13:12.960 --> 01:13:13.960
We thought it was a scrim.

01:13:13.960 --> 01:13:16.040
They thought it was a series and they tried to take the one over that.

01:13:16.040 --> 01:13:23.040
I didn't think I could get up for that, but I got to shout out to Adam of my brother.

01:13:23.040 --> 01:13:27.000
All righty, Oath, thanks so much for taking the time to talk with us and good luck with

01:13:27.000 --> 01:13:31.040
your next series that is right again on broadcast.

01:13:31.040 --> 01:13:32.040
Thank you.

01:13:32.040 --> 01:13:38.840
Had a chance to go after all of us, you're getting the desk sweep wrong, but chose the

01:13:38.840 --> 01:13:39.840
path of honor.

01:13:39.840 --> 01:13:44.520
I got to give props to Paul State, it was a bit of a defensive show across the board

01:13:44.520 --> 01:13:48.420
despite the fact that you can argue that West Virginia was a better aerial team.

01:13:48.420 --> 01:13:50.900
And let me start with you, Pyro J. Thoughts about the series you just saw.

01:13:52.060 --> 01:13:56.500
I mean, they kicked off with those aerial antics from West Virginia.

01:13:56.500 --> 01:14:00.580
Devo, Madden, especially Cosmic, looked very threatening in that position.

01:14:00.580 --> 01:14:03.740
But all state really just didn't budge.

01:14:04.240 --> 01:14:08.000
Their defense, very formidable, effective on the counterattack.

01:14:08.000 --> 01:14:11.740
And at the end of the day, their shot precision was much better as well.

01:14:12.460 --> 01:14:13.680
They limited mistakes.

01:14:13.680 --> 01:14:17.120
They did all the right things whereas West Virginia had too many slip-ups.

01:14:18.400 --> 01:14:22.960
Past the gyro factor wasn't really much of a factor at all. Just like the matter factor.

01:14:22.960 --> 01:14:26.800
We had the Ross switch. We had it changed. We saw a little bit of a different formation,

01:14:26.800 --> 01:14:31.760
especially on the offensive makeup, but in the day West Virginia couldn't get it done offensively.

01:14:31.760 --> 01:14:35.360
West Virginia are still having problems man. There's no other real way to put it at this

01:14:35.360 --> 01:14:38.800
point. I don't really care which four they use at this point. Any four of them

01:14:38.800 --> 01:14:43.360
should be talented enough to take wins throughout this league. They have not done that.

01:14:43.360 --> 01:14:45.160
I don't think there's a way to sugarcoat it at this point.

01:14:45.160 --> 01:14:47.260
We are halfway through the season and at this point,

01:14:47.260 --> 01:14:49.060
they need to have figured this out.

01:14:49.060 --> 01:14:50.860
The fact that they have not does not bode well

01:14:50.860 --> 01:14:52.560
for their chances to make playoffs.

01:14:52.560 --> 01:14:54.660
I love that word bode well and hopefully

01:14:54.660 --> 01:14:56.460
wasn't going to take the time to lift your wounds

01:14:56.460 --> 01:14:58.260
and watch that vlog next week.

01:14:58.260 --> 01:15:00.760
But Ball State has to move on to their next contest

01:15:00.760 --> 01:15:03.160
which is actually happening right now.

01:15:03.160 --> 01:15:06.160
Ball State is pulling double duty this time

01:15:06.160 --> 01:15:09.360
against Ole Miss and while these two teams have

01:15:09.360 --> 01:15:11.760
a little bit of a chemistry,

01:15:11.760 --> 01:15:13.300
But I have to give a shout out to Ole Miss, right?

01:15:13.300 --> 01:15:15.340
Despite their season not going the way they are,

01:15:15.340 --> 01:15:17.840
they're very game and they really want to show off.

01:15:17.840 --> 01:15:18.760
Take a look at the rosters.

01:15:18.760 --> 01:15:21.000
Leeds coming out, Totem up, competing second to go.

01:15:21.000 --> 01:15:23.140
Take it on Barris, Stealth and TMS.

01:15:23.140 --> 01:15:24.400
Chicks, I want to start with you.

01:15:24.400 --> 01:15:25.880
First thing that comes to your mind

01:15:25.880 --> 01:15:28.640
when you see these two is the Chamber.

01:15:28.640 --> 01:15:29.740
Oh my goodness.

01:15:29.740 --> 01:15:31.120
This is a make or break series.

01:15:31.120 --> 01:15:32.840
That's what I'm really thinking right now.

01:15:32.840 --> 01:15:35.820
I'm obviously just now having an interview

01:15:35.820 --> 01:15:39.120
with Oath, Ball State, going up to four and three.

01:15:39.120 --> 01:15:45.960
Like I really feel like you can't have more than three losses to make the top four at the end of the day.

01:15:46.260 --> 01:15:49.800
So it's going to be tough if you drop any more games.

01:15:50.340 --> 01:15:54.020
I don't know if it's possible to make the top four things.

01:15:54.280 --> 01:15:55.540
Things will have to happen.

01:15:55.540 --> 01:15:58.020
Ole Miss is sitting at two and five.

01:15:58.360 --> 01:16:02.360
So for them, is it even possible for them to be in the top four?

01:16:02.360 --> 01:16:07.260
I'm sure there's there's some number of chance for them to do it, but for Ball State,

01:16:07.260 --> 01:16:09.260
I think more is on the line for them right now.

01:16:10.460 --> 01:16:11.600
Hey, let's see the playoff plans.

01:16:11.600 --> 01:16:13.360
You know, to get ready to do the battle

01:16:13.360 --> 01:16:14.500
just a few seconds fast.

01:16:14.500 --> 01:16:15.900
I want to go back to you for a second.

01:16:15.900 --> 01:16:18.700
Oh, Miz, we said, didn't have the season they want.

01:16:18.700 --> 01:16:20.640
But if you're ball state, you're coming off a win

01:16:20.640 --> 01:16:24.040
against an arguably stronger team, if not on paper,

01:16:24.040 --> 01:16:26.240
do you try to change something up in strategy?

01:16:26.240 --> 01:16:27.640
Do you take it opponent by opponent,

01:16:27.640 --> 01:16:28.740
or do you just ride the wave

01:16:28.740 --> 01:16:30.720
because your last match was on stream?

01:16:30.720 --> 01:16:32.920
I think you just ride the wave for a least for now.

01:16:32.920 --> 01:16:34.760
There's no use in trying to theorize

01:16:34.760 --> 01:16:36.680
about like what you could be changing

01:16:36.680 --> 01:16:39.600
considering the caliber of the team or the play style or whatever you just go

01:16:39.600 --> 01:16:42.440
with what's comfortable and I think that's the big thing for ball state we

01:16:42.440 --> 01:16:45.880
talked about a handful of years ago when they had the most suppressive offense in

01:16:45.880 --> 01:16:50.000
all of CRL that was a huge thing you talked to coaches on let's say Northwood

01:16:50.000 --> 01:16:52.560
or on Akron and they'd be like yeah we don't know how to play ball state because

01:16:52.560 --> 01:16:56.200
they just absolutely overwhelmed steel boost and just harassed the entire time

01:16:56.200 --> 01:16:58.960
the game plan seems to be pretty similar to that man it's just pressure

01:16:58.960 --> 01:17:02.560
pressure pressure pressure pressure if it works against Ole Miss great if it

01:17:02.560 --> 01:17:05.680
doesn't no need to necessarily shake everything up we're getting wins over

01:17:05.680 --> 01:17:08.840
West Virginia, that's pretty solid in my mind.

01:17:08.840 --> 01:17:10.440
You know, Pyro, I'm gonna assume

01:17:10.440 --> 01:17:12.840
you've lost the Rocket League match one time.

01:17:12.840 --> 01:17:14.600
I know I probably got that wrong,

01:17:14.600 --> 01:17:17.160
but if you're a squad like Ole Miss, man,

01:17:17.160 --> 01:17:19.160
you have all the ideas, you have all the intention,

01:17:19.160 --> 01:17:20.640
you have all the scrims and all the time playing,

01:17:20.640 --> 01:17:22.560
and it just hasn't gone your way

01:17:22.560 --> 01:17:23.560
when it comes to win, loss,

01:17:23.560 --> 01:17:25.560
and more important, game differential.

01:17:25.560 --> 01:17:28.760
What do you do to find a way to get back to ADV?

01:17:28.760 --> 01:17:30.600
Well, first of all, I definitely never lose

01:17:30.600 --> 01:17:31.880
when I'm in Grand Champion 1

01:17:31.880 --> 01:17:33.720
and spend more time in Champion 3,

01:17:33.720 --> 01:17:35.400
so that's not the case at all.

01:17:35.400 --> 01:17:38.880
but secondly, secondly Ole Miss,

01:17:38.880 --> 01:17:40.560
I mean, I don't think losses are something

01:17:40.560 --> 01:17:41.880
you reflect on as a bad thing,

01:17:41.880 --> 01:17:44.120
that's just things that you can learn from

01:17:44.120 --> 01:17:46.200
and bring into the next game.

01:17:46.200 --> 01:17:48.320
Ole Miss is a really fun team to watch.

01:17:48.320 --> 01:17:51.240
You've got the stealthy Italians, right?

01:17:51.240 --> 01:17:53.720
Barrist has this experience from across the pond

01:17:53.720 --> 01:17:56.160
and now in NA, stealth has been with Ole Miss

01:17:56.160 --> 01:17:58.680
for a while, you're not to see him with Lunar,

01:17:58.680 --> 01:18:01.200
but I have TMS who in my mind is one

01:18:01.200 --> 01:18:04.160
of the most like mechanically clean players

01:18:04.160 --> 01:18:07.420
that's going to be on this field.

01:18:07.420 --> 01:18:09.220
The musty flip, flip, reset, air dribbles,

01:18:09.220 --> 01:18:11.500
it's all very precise.

01:18:11.500 --> 01:18:13.340
And the thing about Ball State is

01:18:13.340 --> 01:18:14.500
they played a lot of defense

01:18:14.500 --> 01:18:17.180
and they kind of got off the hook with West Virginia,

01:18:17.180 --> 01:18:18.740
not hitting their shots.

01:18:18.740 --> 01:18:20.260
I don't expect that from TMS.

01:18:20.260 --> 01:18:22.540
I expect them to be hitting those shots

01:18:22.540 --> 01:18:24.980
and pressuring Ball State in a different way.

01:18:24.980 --> 01:18:26.740
Yeah, but to be absolutely honest,

01:18:26.740 --> 01:18:28.260
I like the fact that you're trying to think

01:18:28.260 --> 01:18:29.100
of something else, Pirate,

01:18:29.100 --> 01:18:30.780
but I gotta push back on this a little bit.

01:18:30.780 --> 01:18:32.100
You look at the last three series,

01:18:32.100 --> 01:18:35.840
they beat Indian attack, but it was a 0-3 against Winthrop

01:18:35.840 --> 01:18:38.280
and a 1-3 against Maryville.

01:18:38.280 --> 01:18:39.480
Something is not only working,

01:18:39.480 --> 01:18:42.120
especially on an exchange on the offensive attack.

01:18:42.120 --> 01:18:43.620
I gotta say, if I'm Ole Miss,

01:18:43.620 --> 01:18:46.580
I gotta come up with plan Z, AA?

01:18:46.580 --> 01:18:49.180
Like, what would you do in that situation?

01:18:49.180 --> 01:18:51.060
Sometimes it is about matchups.

01:18:51.060 --> 01:18:54.720
Some teams will have you no matter what.

01:18:54.720 --> 01:18:58.060
And I really think this is a matchup game.

01:18:58.060 --> 01:18:59.940
This is where Ole Miss can take advantage

01:18:59.940 --> 01:19:01.900
of all state spending so much time on defense

01:19:01.900 --> 01:19:05.180
and truly breaking through in a way that West Virginia didn't.

01:19:05.180 --> 01:19:06.700
And let's be real here as well.

01:19:06.700 --> 01:19:09.700
Ball State have had their losses as well.

01:19:09.700 --> 01:19:12.020
I don't think they're lamenting on those.

01:19:12.020 --> 01:19:14.380
Instead, they're going to ride the wave.

01:19:14.380 --> 01:19:17.500
Ole Miss, the Land Sharks have to create their own wave.

01:19:17.500 --> 01:19:19.420
But hey, they're used to the water.

01:19:19.420 --> 01:19:20.580
They can do that.

01:19:20.580 --> 01:19:22.420
Yeah, and Chickson, I just met him ago.

01:19:22.420 --> 01:19:24.780
You had a chance to peek inside the locker room

01:19:24.780 --> 01:19:27.220
of Ball State and see what their mental is.

01:19:27.220 --> 01:19:30.020
It seems very much like a cool, calm confidence.

01:19:30.020 --> 01:19:32.300
even their roster has had changes over the semester.

01:19:32.300 --> 01:19:36.580
It does seem that kind of like aesthetic is permitting through.

01:19:36.580 --> 01:19:38.620
You look at all said, you look at the potential.

01:19:38.620 --> 01:19:40.620
They're still very much in the fight of this.

01:19:40.620 --> 01:19:42.620
I mean, what's your thought about how they approach

01:19:42.620 --> 01:19:43.620
the series coming forward?

01:19:47.620 --> 01:19:48.620
She's muted.

01:19:48.620 --> 01:19:49.660
Okay.

01:19:49.660 --> 01:19:51.220
I am muted. That's my bad.

01:19:51.220 --> 01:19:54.780
I mean, I think I'll have been together so many seasons now.

01:19:54.780 --> 01:19:57.940
And I think at this point with them being together

01:19:57.940 --> 01:19:59.740
and having that chemistry and Bebes,

01:19:59.740 --> 01:20:02.200
we questioned a ton when he came in,

01:20:02.200 --> 01:20:05.220
when would be the point where he truly gained that chemistry

01:20:05.220 --> 01:20:07.340
and he's finally gained that chemistry,

01:20:07.340 --> 01:20:08.620
I think with both of them.

01:20:08.620 --> 01:20:11.420
And that's why they are truly so full-com and collected.

01:20:11.420 --> 01:20:14.180
They're looking always towards the future

01:20:14.180 --> 01:20:17.700
to be towards that top echelon at this point.

01:20:17.700 --> 01:20:20.560
They don't wanna be the team known for lower bracket runs

01:20:20.560 --> 01:20:22.700
and last chance qualifiers and everything.

01:20:22.700 --> 01:20:25.140
They wanna be a team at the top of the echelon

01:20:25.140 --> 01:20:29.420
and that confidence kind of oozes through in that regard.

01:20:29.420 --> 01:20:32.720
As we get to both teams ready to go and have their

01:20:32.720 --> 01:20:34.220
best of five, but just a second,

01:20:34.220 --> 01:20:36.540
let me look at this idea, Vast,

01:20:36.540 --> 01:20:38.860
that we even think about CRL especially

01:20:38.860 --> 01:20:40.500
because of what the mechanics you need

01:20:40.500 --> 01:20:42.620
to really be on those upper echelon teams.

01:20:42.620 --> 01:20:44.060
Is it really a game of three?

01:20:44.060 --> 01:20:46.060
Is team Chem how they win the day?

01:20:46.060 --> 01:20:47.660
Is it really about the one-two combination

01:20:47.660 --> 01:20:48.820
like an old thinker?

01:20:48.820 --> 01:20:51.340
Or is it about individuals finding spaces

01:20:51.340 --> 01:20:52.780
and where spaces are not there?

01:20:52.780 --> 01:20:53.740
How do you approach it?

01:20:53.740 --> 01:20:58.220
you're thinking about trying to be among the conversation of good CRL teams.

01:20:58.220 --> 01:21:01.460
You have to make sure that every single player is playing at their top level,

01:21:01.460 --> 01:21:02.780
or at least being consistent.

01:21:02.780 --> 01:21:04.980
I think that's a big thing we've talked about a lot lately,

01:21:04.980 --> 01:21:08.420
is that long on are the days of one player makes a CRL team good,

01:21:08.420 --> 01:21:10.980
and that they're going to make an elite play, go for it, and lean, all that stuff.

01:21:10.980 --> 01:21:13.940
It's about having three players that can perform at the highest level,

01:21:13.940 --> 01:21:15.500
and also just not make mistakes.

01:21:15.500 --> 01:21:19.060
And I hate to say it, but there's the clear third for Ole Miss

01:21:19.060 --> 01:21:20.580
that we're kind of all looking at for that.

01:21:20.580 --> 01:21:22.620
Barres can keep up with the lobby.

01:21:22.620 --> 01:21:23.820
Ole Miss have a great chance here.

01:21:23.820 --> 01:21:25.900
If he cannot, it is going to be a

01:21:25.900 --> 01:21:28.460
struggle some game for the entire team.

01:21:28.460 --> 01:21:30.340
So I'm curious to see what we see here

01:21:30.340 --> 01:21:31.900
because I think that conversation could have been

01:21:31.900 --> 01:21:34.420
around Feebs prior to the last series we saw

01:21:34.420 --> 01:21:36.180
of how well does the rookie keep up.

01:21:36.180 --> 01:21:37.620
I think he's keeping up just fine.

01:21:37.620 --> 01:21:40.940
I think the conversation still can be on Feebs

01:21:40.940 --> 01:21:42.420
because when N'Vant is asking

01:21:42.420 --> 01:21:44.740
like what mechanics are going to bring them forward,

01:21:44.740 --> 01:21:47.340
I agree, it's not on the conversation can Feebs keep up.

01:21:47.340 --> 01:21:49.100
It's more so what can they do

01:21:49.100 --> 01:21:51.340
with Thebes playmaking ability.

01:21:51.340 --> 01:21:53.860
To me, it's all about space creation.

01:21:53.860 --> 01:21:55.740
I'm looking at Thebes on Ball State

01:21:55.740 --> 01:21:58.100
and I'm looking at TMS on Ole Miss.

01:21:58.100 --> 01:22:00.060
They are the ones that are gonna bring the mechanics

01:22:00.060 --> 01:22:02.780
in the smart 50-50s to get the ball

01:22:02.780 --> 01:22:05.540
into shot-taking territory.

01:22:05.540 --> 01:22:06.740
Yeah, how do you create space?

01:22:06.740 --> 01:22:09.260
The team that basically locks down like a tank

01:22:09.260 --> 01:22:11.020
right in front of their net all the time.

01:22:11.020 --> 01:22:13.220
That's a question I have watching that last series.

01:22:13.220 --> 01:22:15.140
You know, every series is different.

01:22:15.140 --> 01:22:17.340
Some guys get a couple of tips that she's walked

01:22:17.340 --> 01:22:18.940
and have a whole different mentality.

01:22:18.940 --> 01:22:21.820
But I really feel like if Ball State were to win this next series,

01:22:21.820 --> 01:22:24.340
it has to be something different.

01:22:24.340 --> 01:22:26.740
And the thing is, will we send something different?

01:22:26.740 --> 01:22:28.180
Let's get right into predictions.

01:22:28.180 --> 01:22:31.260
Biro, you talked the big game about what it takes to win.

01:22:31.260 --> 01:22:33.260
Who gets the dub this time going out?

01:22:33.260 --> 01:22:36.020
May after watching Ball State take it over West Virginia,

01:22:36.020 --> 01:22:38.820
you'd be crazy to not predict for Ball State.

01:22:38.820 --> 01:22:40.220
And I'm crazy.

01:22:40.220 --> 01:22:41.740
Give me Ole Miss.

01:22:41.740 --> 01:22:45.780
I think they have what it takes to surprise Ball State

01:22:45.780 --> 01:22:51.180
today and actually get that shot precision down at West Virginia

01:22:51.180 --> 01:22:55.460
than that. Let's go. Chica, what do you got? You know, I know

01:22:55.500 --> 01:22:59.460
Oh said, don't vote for him. It puts on less pressure, but I'm

01:22:59.460 --> 01:23:03.300
sorry. Oh, if you guys look too good, I'm going with ball

01:23:03.300 --> 01:23:06.620
state. I really enjoyed how they played last game. I mean,

01:23:06.620 --> 01:23:09.580
what better than to go into a second series after winning

01:23:09.580 --> 01:23:12.100
your first? You can't be more confident than that.

01:23:12.100 --> 01:23:14.100
I

01:23:17.100 --> 01:23:22.260
Well, here's the issue you're not gonna like my reasoning here because I am taking ball state here

01:23:22.260 --> 01:23:28.220
And not only am I taking ball state, but it's actually for a very specific reason that pyro was talking about just a couple of seconds ago

01:23:28.220 --> 01:23:34.540
Almost are a brand new team and when the biggest issues we have had with that team is the third man going I got time right?

01:23:34.540 --> 01:23:36.540
I can send it from me

01:23:36.540 --> 01:23:43.540
No, no you cannot. Not against a team like Ball State that can counterattack in two seconds and take advantage of every open net.

01:23:43.540 --> 01:23:47.040
For a team that has lacked composure throughout the season, that's been their biggest problem.

01:23:47.040 --> 01:23:51.540
I think it's going to be a huge problem against a team like this that takes full advantage of moments like that.

01:23:51.540 --> 01:23:55.040
You're absolutely right for the third man. I mean, old heads would know the phrase Leverang Jenkins.

01:23:55.040 --> 01:23:58.040
That's the closest thing we got to that in Rocket League.

01:23:58.040 --> 01:24:04.040
And it must be something that changed the win for me because I do think Ball State has the edge here.

01:24:04.040 --> 01:24:06.760
Here I get Ole Miss has the foundation.

01:24:06.760 --> 01:24:09.680
You don't get to see our league play without a foundation.

01:24:09.680 --> 01:24:12.920
Right now it really hasn't been their series.

01:24:12.920 --> 01:24:15.600
But look, we can predict all we want.

01:24:15.600 --> 01:24:19.560
It comes down to the actual gameplay on the pitch.

01:24:19.560 --> 01:24:22.000
Both teams are ready to go.

01:24:22.000 --> 01:24:24.840
So let's get ourselves right into it.

01:24:24.840 --> 01:24:28.920
Ball state pulling double duty is taken on Ole Miss.

01:24:28.920 --> 01:24:32.200
What do you do when you put two wildcars in a blender?

01:24:32.200 --> 01:24:35.960
Well, it's a supra-somic smoothie that ever saved the league.

01:24:35.960 --> 01:24:38.400
Here's a chance for Lexus to be made.

01:24:38.400 --> 01:24:40.840
Castors, let's do this.

01:24:40.840 --> 01:24:45.400
It is red on red, violins.

01:24:45.400 --> 01:24:47.360
Ball State, the Cardinals flying high.

01:24:47.360 --> 01:24:50.520
Ole Miss just trying to survive the waves.

01:24:50.520 --> 01:24:52.440
Ball State are on an upward swing right now.

01:24:52.440 --> 01:24:54.840
Check said the problem is Ole Miss,

01:24:54.840 --> 01:24:56.120
I don't know where they're swinging for.

01:24:56.120 --> 01:24:57.560
The fences, maybe they're swinging for.

01:24:57.560 --> 01:24:59.240
The outfield, maybe they're swinging for foul balls

01:24:59.240 --> 01:25:00.080
at this point.

01:25:00.080 --> 01:25:01.760
It's been an up and down season for Ole Miss,

01:25:01.760 --> 01:25:04.240
but if they want to write the ship, now is the time.

01:25:04.240 --> 01:25:06.280
Second series of the day here on CRL Sunday,

01:25:06.280 --> 01:25:07.640
let's get into it.

01:25:07.640 --> 01:25:09.960
You know, at this point, I think every team's fighting

01:25:09.960 --> 01:25:12.000
just to have the little bit of confidence

01:25:12.000 --> 01:25:13.240
at the end of the season.

01:25:13.240 --> 01:25:16.760
If there's one thing to have a bad beginning of season,

01:25:16.760 --> 01:25:19.080
yes, will it affect your chances of qualifying?

01:25:19.080 --> 01:25:21.840
But you always have that last chance,

01:25:21.840 --> 01:25:25.000
and I'd rather go at swinging at the end of my season

01:25:25.000 --> 01:25:27.040
going into those playoffs.

01:25:27.040 --> 01:25:27.880
Yeah, it's the big thing.

01:25:27.880 --> 01:25:29.720
It's keeping momentum in the right time, right place,

01:25:29.720 --> 01:25:34.160
moment here and like we said this is the moment for Ole Miss who's a team that

01:25:34.160 --> 01:25:38.120
already got in the lean play through and unexpected way I was even talking to

01:25:38.120 --> 01:25:41.720
Warhead the director for Ole Miss and I was talking directly like hey man I

01:25:41.720 --> 01:25:44.360
think you guys good I think it's gonna be next semester you need like one more

01:25:44.360 --> 01:25:47.480
piece and you're gonna figure it out 15 minutes later they qualified for

01:25:47.480 --> 01:25:51.560
CRL so I don't know ball but apparently Ole Miss does it's been an

01:25:51.560 --> 01:25:55.240
impressive bout so far for them they still got a long way to go but like

01:25:55.240 --> 01:25:57.680
we said I mean hey if you can do it against Ball State you can do it

01:25:57.680 --> 01:25:59.580
against anyone. Yeah, Paul

01:25:59.580 --> 01:26:01.520
said it's certainly proven to be

01:26:01.520 --> 01:26:03.140
now at least in the top half of

01:26:03.140 --> 01:26:05.020
Sierra and that is still an

01:26:05.020 --> 01:26:07.920
incredible amount of victory for

01:26:07.920 --> 01:26:10.560
them to be in. But now they have

01:26:10.560 --> 01:26:11.960
to have that same victory on the

01:26:11.960 --> 01:26:13.660
field. Yet again, they've been

01:26:13.660 --> 01:26:15.620
trying against Ole Miss having a

01:26:15.620 --> 01:26:17.400
couple of pot shot opportunities

01:26:17.400 --> 01:26:19.720
just one actually on the scoreboard.

01:26:19.720 --> 01:26:21.100
But yet they still haven't been

01:26:21.100 --> 01:26:24.440
able to find a good quality shot.

01:26:24.440 --> 01:26:26.140
Ole Miss has been able to now

01:26:26.140 --> 01:26:28.140
get out of their backfield.

01:26:28.140 --> 01:26:29.740
They're doing something so far here.

01:26:29.740 --> 01:26:31.540
Pretty uneventful first minute and a half.

01:26:31.540 --> 01:26:33.420
It just kind of feels like long balls down

01:26:33.420 --> 01:26:34.780
either end of the pitch.

01:26:34.780 --> 01:26:35.900
That's another one of those.

01:26:35.900 --> 01:26:37.780
It actually funds play out to the corner where

01:26:37.780 --> 01:26:39.340
Feebs will look for a follow-up touch.

01:26:39.340 --> 01:26:41.580
TMS is going to stay very patient instead for this one

01:26:41.580 --> 01:26:42.580
in Oath.

01:26:42.580 --> 01:26:43.900
Stay around the ball as well.

01:26:43.900 --> 01:26:45.540
Ole Miss taking, I think, more time

01:26:45.540 --> 01:26:48.580
than Ball State is even expecting at this point.

01:26:48.580 --> 01:26:50.460
Ball State are expecting the same sort of pace of play

01:26:50.460 --> 01:26:51.860
that they just had against West Virginia.

01:26:51.860 --> 01:26:53.220
And Ole Miss like, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah,

01:26:53.220 --> 01:26:54.140
break down the pace.

01:26:54.140 --> 01:26:57.220
Let's take a second here and breathe.

01:26:57.220 --> 01:27:01.500
Stealth in that dominant is still such a rare scene.

01:27:01.500 --> 01:27:04.660
When you're so used to fending an octane,

01:27:04.660 --> 01:27:07.900
we'll see if that ends up impacting anything.

01:27:07.900 --> 01:27:11.500
But Ball State still trying to break the Ole Miss

01:27:11.500 --> 01:27:12.580
barrier of defense.

01:27:12.580 --> 01:27:14.740
But you're right, the pace of gameplay

01:27:14.740 --> 01:27:17.820
has significantly slowed down in this one.

01:27:17.820 --> 01:27:19.820
It seems like everyone can predict

01:27:19.820 --> 01:27:22.540
what's going to happen before a touch is made.

01:27:22.540 --> 01:27:24.540
No one wants to take any risks.

01:27:25.740 --> 01:27:28.380
Oh, really, I know if that's the advantage or disadvantage,

01:27:28.380 --> 01:27:30.380
or really anything, either team right now.

01:27:30.380 --> 01:27:32.620
It's definitely a point of uncomfortability for Ball State,

01:27:32.620 --> 01:27:35.460
because I think they're just not used to it in comparison to the last series,

01:27:35.460 --> 01:27:38.380
but it doesn't really develop much on either end.

01:27:38.380 --> 01:27:41.580
Redirect here might just be enough, though, passing play-out centers.

01:27:41.580 --> 01:27:44.140
Delft just tries to send it on target, can't quite.

01:27:44.140 --> 01:27:45.740
TMS, that's not going to be enough either.

01:27:45.740 --> 01:27:47.620
He's got no boost, and the back-pass to Baris

01:27:47.620 --> 01:27:49.260
is going to have to force them to restart.

01:27:49.260 --> 01:27:51.100
Shot on target and go.

01:27:51.100 --> 01:27:54.040
Take it away. Great first touch, second, and potentially third.

01:27:54.040 --> 01:27:55.640
And maybe a pass out to Oath.

01:27:55.640 --> 01:27:57.520
That gets denied by TMS.

01:27:57.520 --> 01:27:59.440
Thebes dropped down back to Oath again.

01:27:59.440 --> 01:28:00.640
Shot off target.

01:28:00.640 --> 01:28:04.160
But at least forces a save out of TMS and light double commit

01:28:04.160 --> 01:28:05.240
out of everyone on Ole Miss.

01:28:05.240 --> 01:28:06.480
And that's going to be a goal.

01:28:06.480 --> 01:28:09.040
All right. Well, the confusion finally ends here.

01:28:09.040 --> 01:28:10.880
All it takes is one bad play in the corner

01:28:10.880 --> 01:28:12.640
and Ole Miss gets exposed.

01:28:12.640 --> 01:28:16.480
Yeah, you mentioned earlier how much ball state can occupy

01:28:16.480 --> 01:28:17.320
that midfield.

01:28:17.320 --> 01:28:19.840
And that's exactly where Oath is sitting.

01:28:19.840 --> 01:28:24.160
He's sitting directly in Menfield, directly center, waiting for that pass.

01:28:24.160 --> 01:28:27.200
And as soon as it came out to him, he puts a perfect shot on target

01:28:27.200 --> 01:28:31.000
with an Ole Miss team that is low on boost, defensively speaking.

01:28:31.000 --> 01:28:32.720
Great opportunity by Balls.

01:28:32.720 --> 01:28:34.960
State, it only took a little bit of time.

01:28:34.960 --> 01:28:39.120
Pifty there, another shot deflected, and Oath tapped this one on in,

01:28:39.120 --> 01:28:42.240
and still it's going in and out.

01:28:42.240 --> 01:28:45.280
I find myself without many compliments for Ole Miss throughout this game.

01:28:45.280 --> 01:28:48.000
First one I will give is, wow, I can't believe the defense.

01:28:48.000 --> 01:28:50.720
At least they're standing up when the times require it.

01:28:50.720 --> 01:28:52.760
They haven't had many times that have required that.

01:28:52.760 --> 01:28:55.520
However, they can't prove it on the other end.

01:28:55.520 --> 01:28:57.760
We talked about a slow start, maybe slow pace of play.

01:28:57.760 --> 01:29:01.160
Nothing slow about this could dive across the net for TMS.

01:29:01.160 --> 01:29:04.080
Yeah, what a perfect cut by TMS.

01:29:04.080 --> 01:29:05.160
He came out of nowhere.

01:29:05.160 --> 01:29:07.680
I actually thought he was rotating out,

01:29:07.680 --> 01:29:10.240
but he instead makes the call, gets the pass,

01:29:10.240 --> 01:29:12.600
puts on a shot that no one was expecting,

01:29:12.600 --> 01:29:16.240
and now we find ourselves in a tied game.

01:29:16.240 --> 01:29:17.040
Find ball game?

01:29:17.040 --> 01:29:17.540
Ah!

01:29:17.540 --> 01:29:18.480
Maybe not for long.

01:29:18.480 --> 01:29:20.080
Shot from Varys goes on target.

01:29:20.080 --> 01:29:21.720
Oath would turn it away.

01:29:21.720 --> 01:29:23.880
A couple of demos, though, could open some extra space

01:29:23.880 --> 01:29:26.520
and feed the thieves on low boost.

01:29:26.520 --> 01:29:28.680
He's going to send it to TMS, who, yeah,

01:29:28.680 --> 01:29:30.160
I don't think that was the way that he drew up

01:29:30.160 --> 01:29:31.240
that follow-up touch there.

01:29:31.240 --> 01:29:32.720
It might still work out for Ole Miss

01:29:32.720 --> 01:29:35.080
as they do have an opportunity for a shot.

01:29:35.080 --> 01:29:36.960
Not going to be enough.

01:29:36.960 --> 01:29:39.560
Back out of the center, and TMS, the one to receive.

01:29:39.560 --> 01:29:41.680
Right first touch, can he find another?

01:29:41.680 --> 01:29:43.680
Yes, he can, and a pass out center,

01:29:43.680 --> 01:29:46.240
but stealth not the receipt of the recipient of it,

01:29:46.240 --> 01:29:48.480
instead it's gone away and Oath is sent it back out

01:29:48.480 --> 01:29:49.360
to midfield.

01:29:49.360 --> 01:29:51.280
Beeps, they're trying to get it back to Oath

01:29:51.280 --> 01:29:53.320
or maybe just give him time to run some interference.

01:29:53.320 --> 01:29:54.840
It doesn't exactly work out,

01:29:54.840 --> 01:29:56.240
but the good thing is Oath's on the side

01:29:56.240 --> 01:29:58.400
while we can keep it contained.

01:29:58.400 --> 01:30:00.440
And then let a free shot go the other way.

01:30:00.440 --> 01:30:01.360
All right, so full state,

01:30:01.360 --> 01:30:03.360
maybe they're starting to look a little uncomfortable here.

01:30:03.360 --> 01:30:05.160
It feels like the pace of play has gotten back

01:30:05.160 --> 01:30:06.440
to something they're used to,

01:30:06.440 --> 01:30:08.800
but the comfortability is not returned.

01:30:08.800 --> 01:30:11.280
Yeah, I don't like how they're clearing often low

01:30:11.280 --> 01:30:13.960
on boost and kind of just giving this ball away.

01:30:13.960 --> 01:30:16.440
There's one thing to clear the ball, to give space,

01:30:16.440 --> 01:30:19.160
but there's also another way that you need to outlet that pass

01:30:19.160 --> 01:30:21.320
and actually put it in clear space.

01:30:21.320 --> 01:30:22.160
Oh.

01:30:24.160 --> 01:30:27.160
Um, what a shot.

01:30:28.280 --> 01:30:29.760
That's one way to put it.

01:30:29.760 --> 01:30:32.040
The other way to put it is, unfortunately,

01:30:32.040 --> 01:30:34.040
that is the worst goal all season.

01:30:34.040 --> 01:30:35.960
Just gonna state it, just straight up.

01:30:35.960 --> 01:30:37.760
That should have been a save from TMS

01:30:37.760 --> 01:30:40.680
and he knows it, close one shot and quick shot here

01:30:40.680 --> 01:30:45.880
Yes, we play on unfortunate for Ole Miss. They were finally starting to find their footing in this game and there it all goes

01:30:47.280 --> 01:30:51.960
Yeah, and that will really kill the confidence of in that stands tall there

01:30:52.720 --> 01:30:59.680
Phenomenal clear as we are under 15 seconds one more opportunity stealth here all the pre-jump and Ferris

01:30:59.680 --> 01:31:07.280
Couldn't get a touch either on the follow-up five seconds left and it just seems like that one opportunity that one mistake

01:31:08.000 --> 01:31:10.000
kind of told

01:31:10.680 --> 01:31:11.680
Oh.

01:31:11.680 --> 01:31:14.060
Deflect the little way.

01:31:14.060 --> 01:31:15.060
Game one?

01:31:15.060 --> 01:31:16.060
That was the ball of state.

01:31:16.060 --> 01:31:17.860
It's the expected result here in game one.

01:31:17.860 --> 01:31:20.360
The way we got here, anything but that.

01:31:20.360 --> 01:31:23.200
To be honest, I'm kind of still kind of waking up at this point.

01:31:23.200 --> 01:31:26.520
I feel like I'm in a fever dream and that shouldn't be real, but it is.

01:31:26.520 --> 01:31:30.360
And I think the most surprising part is not only is it a bit of a sloppy gold give-up,

01:31:30.360 --> 01:31:35.280
CMS who does it, by far the best player on Ole Miss by pretty much every metric

01:31:35.280 --> 01:31:36.920
and standard at this point.

01:31:36.920 --> 01:31:38.680
And he's the one who ends up making mistakes.

01:31:38.680 --> 01:31:41.400
So we talked about this composure is the big issue for Ole Miss.

01:31:41.400 --> 01:31:45.520
It's not like they have an issue with composure per se, but they're a new team to this space.

01:31:45.520 --> 01:31:49.320
They are a new team to league play here versus Ball State, who have been here time and time

01:31:49.320 --> 01:31:50.320
again.

01:31:50.320 --> 01:31:54.040
So for TMS, the new player on the roster to look a little shaky, I'm going to state

01:31:54.040 --> 01:31:56.000
that doesn't bode well for the team as a whole.

01:31:56.000 --> 01:31:59.080
Yeah, composure and consistency especially.

01:31:59.080 --> 01:32:01.640
As you can tell, there was a lot of ebbs and flows.

01:32:01.640 --> 01:32:06.800
We talked about the speed of the pace of game play, how we want to react and

01:32:06.800 --> 01:32:10.680
just get redirection, get and receive some passes.

01:32:10.680 --> 01:32:14.240
So everyone was kind of finding their comfortability,

01:32:14.240 --> 01:32:16.880
but really never got truly comfortable.

01:32:16.880 --> 01:32:19.520
I think both teams, after seeing each other,

01:32:19.520 --> 01:32:22.600
need to understand what type of series this is gonna be.

01:32:22.600 --> 01:32:26.580
Obviously it's very different from the WVU game we just saw.

01:32:26.580 --> 01:32:29.120
So Ball State making adjustments

01:32:29.120 --> 01:32:32.640
does take that first game Ole Miss.

01:32:32.640 --> 01:32:33.840
Need to not make mistakes.

01:32:33.840 --> 01:32:35.800
Honestly, I still think it could have been our game

01:32:35.800 --> 01:32:38.880
I think Justin only makes simply one mistake.

01:32:38.880 --> 01:32:40.440
That's the thing that sucks is that it's like,

01:32:40.440 --> 01:32:42.340
hey, we wanna like poke and prod and be like,

01:32:42.340 --> 01:32:43.180
well, you did this wrong,

01:32:43.180 --> 01:32:45.280
there's not a lot of things they did wrong.

01:32:45.280 --> 01:32:46.740
I think the pace of play was a little awkward

01:32:46.740 --> 01:32:47.740
for them initially in the game,

01:32:47.740 --> 01:32:49.560
but outside of that, they played pretty well.

01:32:49.560 --> 01:32:51.980
So the truth is, it's really just one bad mistake

01:32:51.980 --> 01:32:54.080
at the wrong time and that ends up costing them.

01:32:54.080 --> 01:32:55.240
Hopefully they don't do the same thing

01:32:55.240 --> 01:32:56.240
here on Forbidden Temple,

01:32:56.240 --> 01:32:59.280
otherwise it's reverse sweep territory for the newcomers.

01:32:59.280 --> 01:33:02.120
Cah, trying to make sure that's the case.

01:33:02.120 --> 01:33:05.000
And my goodness, does he start game two

01:33:05.000 --> 01:33:06.600
with a worldie!

01:33:06.600 --> 01:33:10.840
Oh, that's such a spicy shot after the pass from Oat

01:33:10.840 --> 01:33:15.080
as well to collect, get the flip reset.

01:33:15.080 --> 01:33:19.880
Wall in midair is insane control.

01:33:19.880 --> 01:33:22.720
Beautiful opportunity for Ball State.

01:33:22.720 --> 01:33:24.840
And that's the statement piece that I think

01:33:24.840 --> 01:33:26.480
they've been waiting to truly make.

01:33:26.480 --> 01:33:28.840
Don't give X space again!

01:33:28.840 --> 01:33:30.560
Why?

01:33:30.560 --> 01:33:31.840
OK, you know what?

01:33:31.840 --> 01:33:33.080
I don't do this often, but I'm

01:33:33.080 --> 01:33:34.880
calling somebody out on Twitch chat directly.

01:33:34.880 --> 01:33:38.880
tsunami why is this game so slow this fast enough for you is this fast enough

01:33:38.880 --> 01:33:42.960
for you two goals in 20 seconds both of them bangers from ball state the

01:33:42.960 --> 01:33:49.360
Cardinals have finally woken up oh my goodness all this challenge club ball

01:33:49.360 --> 01:33:56.280
this is the big leagues my guys you have to challenge it unfortunately for

01:33:56.280 --> 01:34:01.440
them ball state gets to very nice goals to start this one but fortunately for

01:34:01.440 --> 01:34:07.720
ball state. I mean what an exclamation point to make. I mean I'm loving it. I'm

01:34:07.720 --> 01:34:11.800
hoping everyone else is loving it because I definitely want to see more shots like

01:34:11.800 --> 01:34:16.960
that as the series moves on especially out of ball state looking to cement

01:34:16.960 --> 01:34:22.360
themselves in that top four. They are locked in right now and unfortunate for

01:34:22.360 --> 01:34:25.680
Ole Miss this is the problem with letting a team with this much experience

01:34:25.680 --> 01:34:28.760
wake up. You can get them in an uncomfortable moment in game one while

01:34:28.760 --> 01:34:31.040
they're trying to adjust between the two different play styles of each

01:34:31.040 --> 01:34:35.200
series they played in. Once you let them get going though, once you get some confidence,

01:34:35.200 --> 01:34:39.320
this is the problem. Three hyper-mechanical players who all know how to stunt in the right

01:34:39.320 --> 01:34:43.640
moments and the moment has barely been a moment at that. Only a minute into this game and

01:34:43.640 --> 01:34:47.040
so far it's been entirely ball-stating control.

01:34:47.040 --> 01:34:52.280
Great midfield control again. Finally getting bumped out. Stealth to the air. I don't

01:34:52.280 --> 01:34:56.400
think I got a flip recent there but does win that 50 with the Dominus.

01:34:56.400 --> 01:35:00.240
Alright, it's a little awkward here. I mean the bump out of midfield was definitely

01:35:00.240 --> 01:35:02.620
want to do something, but I think Gudge just kind of gets caught in the long

01:35:02.620 --> 01:35:05.980
place, wrong time. He's facing backwards, his own net tries to go for an early

01:35:05.980 --> 01:35:09.960
challenge, loses the 50 entirely, and finally Ole Miss can put a stop to

01:35:09.960 --> 01:35:13.740
Ball State's momentum. We still have a lot of this game left here, so at least

01:35:13.740 --> 01:35:17.340
getting one goal to keep them within territory of Ball State is a huge

01:35:17.340 --> 01:35:18.380
improvement.

01:35:18.380 --> 01:35:25.540
Over to Gagaha's space, and Stealth just barely poking in away.

01:35:25.540 --> 01:35:33.380
Thieves has to play time here, and he does that, TMS, no boost, well done by Gawd, just

01:35:33.380 --> 01:35:37.020
to move it forward, and Ole Miss though still on the attack in front.

01:35:37.020 --> 01:35:42.300
Gawd, pass out, Oath is there, but so is TMS, and he's actually going to receive his

01:35:42.300 --> 01:35:43.300
own playoff.

01:35:43.300 --> 01:35:44.300
The ceiling, or at least attempt to.

01:35:44.300 --> 01:35:47.900
Thieves in the way, another bump though is going to cause some problems, and maybe

01:35:47.900 --> 01:35:50.180
that's how we're going to see, never mind, Ole Miss give up another goal.

01:35:50.180 --> 01:35:53.220
He's going to say, maybe that's the way back, Gawd is through physicality, um,

01:35:53.220 --> 01:35:55.220
However, this is exactly what I talked about pregame.

01:35:55.220 --> 01:35:56.380
You over commit for one second.

01:35:56.380 --> 01:35:58.500
This is what Ball State can do.

01:35:58.500 --> 01:35:59.700
Oh my goodness.

01:35:59.700 --> 01:36:04.700
I'm just impressed with the ability to rotate out

01:36:04.700 --> 01:36:07.220
and get the outlet pass, get the doigt,

01:36:07.220 --> 01:36:11.140
see the vision, have the open opportunity for Ball State.

01:36:11.140 --> 01:36:14.260
They're taking every opportunity they possibly

01:36:14.260 --> 01:36:16.660
can at the end of the day.

01:36:16.660 --> 01:36:17.940
Here's another opportunity.

01:36:17.940 --> 01:36:19.820
Thebes to himself on the side wall.

01:36:19.820 --> 01:36:21.100
And he got a free jumping TMS.

01:36:21.100 --> 01:36:25.220
and he realized that with TMS going up early, it actually opened some space in the corner

01:36:25.220 --> 01:36:27.180
for him to maneuver a little bit more.

01:36:27.180 --> 01:36:30.180
TMS, if you back to himself, no he cannot.

01:36:30.180 --> 01:36:33.620
No boost in the tank means no follow up touch, and stealth doesn't have any boost either,

01:36:33.620 --> 01:36:35.660
which is why God makes an immediate challenge.

01:36:35.660 --> 01:36:38.540
When we play with some boost as Boris, and what can you do with it?

01:36:38.540 --> 01:36:41.140
I mean, that's kind of nice, it's just not gonna be enough,

01:36:41.140 --> 01:36:45.580
especially as Oath is able to send it out midfield and Ball State back in the driver's seat again

01:36:45.580 --> 01:36:48.620
with maybe one more attempt, TMS, to take it away.

01:36:48.620 --> 01:36:54.420
But Ole Miss again, as much as they have figured out some things in this game, it is very still clearly ball-stating control.

01:36:56.220 --> 01:37:01.620
With time, is Barris gets the beat first over Gov and no teammates

01:37:02.120 --> 01:37:04.520
for him to follow up on the play.

01:37:04.520 --> 01:37:08.720
Feeves a good 50, so that's open space for Barris to send it up.

01:37:08.720 --> 01:37:11.620
Is there a team in again? Stealth is up towards the back.

01:37:11.620 --> 01:37:16.220
Well, does get the double punch and manages to point that in from the post.

01:37:16.220 --> 01:37:20.060
Okay, alright Ole Miss, I see you one moment of weakness here.

01:37:20.060 --> 01:37:21.820
Somebody needs to go up for this early.

01:37:21.820 --> 01:37:26.000
Gummis is it off the backboard and I mean, it's an awkward shot, but at the end of the day,

01:37:26.000 --> 01:37:29.020
Barist was there as the second man, there was at least going to be a follow-up

01:37:29.020 --> 01:37:33.060
and I don't think any of the follow-up plays prior to that were expected from Ball State.

01:37:33.060 --> 01:37:37.160
Awkwardness finally works out here for Ole Miss, but they need to happen again.

01:37:37.160 --> 01:37:40.660
Just underneath two minutes to play here, there is plenty of time,

01:37:40.660 --> 01:37:44.020
but so far the goals Ole Miss have found have been off of mistakes from Ball State,

01:37:44.020 --> 01:37:45.820
something you can't necessarily rely on.

01:37:46.220 --> 01:37:52.180
KMS, great catch, which is not the greatest follow-up on the air dribble.

01:37:52.180 --> 01:37:56.620
Stealth will be there again, who's had the hot hand so far this game.

01:37:56.620 --> 01:38:01.380
Tries for the flip, Risa does get stuffed by thieves, and this one sent back out.

01:38:01.380 --> 01:38:05.140
Got again on the clear binding space for Ball State.

01:38:05.140 --> 01:38:09.660
And how can you, this one in midfield, and no touch to be found?

01:38:09.660 --> 01:38:11.020
Both?

01:38:11.020 --> 01:38:16.020
Waiting on this one in a phenomenal touch for, because Stealth was waiting to receive that pass.

01:38:16.020 --> 01:38:22.020
Heaps was looking for the demo on TMS. They keep recognizing that it would have been a huge opening and breakaway if he had succeeded,

01:38:22.020 --> 01:38:26.020
but instead the physicality doesn't work out and, oh miss, gotta be careful here.

01:38:26.020 --> 01:38:29.020
That's a light touch from Boris leaving it within territory for a shot.

01:38:29.020 --> 01:38:33.020
Not nobody finds it and Stealth can at least dump this one back out to mid.

01:38:33.020 --> 01:38:36.020
Goes back in the corner again. Those teams with some heavy touches here,

01:38:36.020 --> 01:38:40.020
neither one of them wants to make a mistake and the game that's been lit in with them, it's gonna be a problem.

01:38:40.020 --> 01:38:44.820
problem. However, that might be a mistake, especially considering TMS has

01:38:44.820 --> 01:38:48.820
have a lot of boost here. If God can read this off the backboard, it is not a goal.

01:38:48.820 --> 01:38:54.180
Somehow Ole Miss get back. This is still looking like Ball State's game in terms

01:38:54.180 --> 01:38:58.340
of control, in terms of seconds taken away. 30 to play, Ole Miss have had their

01:38:58.340 --> 01:39:01.460
opportunities, but they need just one more to send it to at least an overtime.

01:39:01.460 --> 01:39:05.540
They also need to desperately get out of their half. It seems like Ball State

01:39:05.540 --> 01:39:11.460
It has lived on this arm's side of the field the entire game, especially in the last two

01:39:11.460 --> 01:39:12.460
minutes.

01:39:12.460 --> 01:39:15.900
And if they can't get out of their half, they're going to have an impossible time trying to

01:39:15.900 --> 01:39:16.900
tie this one up.

01:39:16.900 --> 01:39:19.900
Finally, they move on to the next ball.

01:39:19.900 --> 01:39:24.060
The fake almost catches Ball State off guard, but it seems like this ball is now in the

01:39:24.060 --> 01:39:28.340
reverse direction, feeds another clear out.

01:39:28.340 --> 01:39:31.740
Can they keep this ball up is the question.

01:39:31.740 --> 01:39:39.740
They'll still stay up for Ole Miss, touches the ground finally and Ball State sneak away with this one.

01:39:39.740 --> 01:39:43.740
They get away with one. That play was still their game to win.

01:39:43.740 --> 01:39:47.740
I think they played the better of the two, but you can really tell this was Ole Miss

01:39:47.740 --> 01:39:51.740
batting down the hatches and just not giving up any freebies for the most part here.

01:39:51.740 --> 01:39:55.740
First two goals are earned pretty quickly. The third one definitely earned from Ball State,

01:39:55.740 --> 01:39:59.260
But it also required how many shots this one to 14

01:40:00.380 --> 01:40:05.140
Total shots from ball state to find those three goals nine saves for Ole Miss prove

01:40:05.140 --> 01:40:06.820
They are definitely getting better in this series

01:40:06.820 --> 01:40:10.380
But the problem is is you can't get better halfway through the series

01:40:10.380 --> 01:40:14.700
You need already be at that level because it's a reverse sweep now required for Ole Miss to win this

01:40:14.700 --> 01:40:19.700
I mean huge shots to go to six of those 13 shots and clearly

01:40:19.700 --> 01:40:24.900
finding success, whether it's passing to his teammate or just solo playing and

01:40:24.900 --> 01:40:30.020
outplaying all by himself. He's what facilitated the rest of that offensive

01:40:30.020 --> 01:40:35.020
pressure, kind of got things going. Obviously, all smiles for him as well.

01:40:35.020 --> 01:40:39.020
So I think they're doing a wonderful job upfield and being creative and being

01:40:39.020 --> 01:40:43.220
mech-y and that's catching Ole Miss off guard. Yeah, I think Ole Miss, again,

01:40:43.220 --> 01:40:46.300
it's just a level of comfortability that they do not have here right now,

01:40:46.300 --> 01:40:49.060
which is a big problem for them. I'm not gonna say that it's being, you

01:40:49.060 --> 01:40:52.840
You know, end of the world necessarily, but it's very clear that that lack of comfortability

01:40:52.840 --> 01:40:54.440
is bleeding into a handful of plays.

01:40:54.440 --> 01:40:56.960
An over-commitment there, a double-commitment here.

01:40:56.960 --> 01:41:01.040
It just feels uncomfortable in moments that they cannot afford to be uncomfortable.

01:41:01.040 --> 01:41:04.480
You need to come in a series like this with full confidence and the belief that you can

01:41:04.480 --> 01:41:05.480
win.

01:41:05.480 --> 01:41:08.600
This is something we've talked about a lot here on CRL, but considering how close the

01:41:08.600 --> 01:41:13.080
margins are for every team, you need to come in with that true belief in yourself

01:41:13.080 --> 01:41:16.080
and your teammates that you can win this series no matter the matchup.

01:41:16.080 --> 01:41:18.820
And right now Ole Miss still feels like they're playing scared.

01:41:18.820 --> 01:41:22.820
They're aware of how good Ball State is. They're aware of Ball State just getting a win over WVU.

01:41:22.820 --> 01:41:25.260
And as a result, they need to kind of just ignore all of that.

01:41:25.260 --> 01:41:28.220
Memory of a goldfish is required in a moment like this.

01:41:28.220 --> 01:41:30.820
Hmm. I love that call out.

01:41:30.820 --> 01:41:32.820
Goldfish memory.

01:41:32.820 --> 01:41:36.620
This is reverse sweep territory for Ole Miss.

01:41:36.620 --> 01:41:38.820
They just need to lock it down.

01:41:38.820 --> 01:41:44.620
It's all been the little things and that's really what distinguishes the upper echelon of CRL

01:41:44.620 --> 01:41:47.620
to those that are getting comfortable and into it.

01:41:47.620 --> 01:41:49.420
Can they manage to take a game off?

01:41:49.420 --> 01:41:55.260
Which we mentioned, gold differential even means everything in determining that top four.

01:41:55.260 --> 01:41:59.420
There's a lot on the line in this game for both of these rosters.

01:41:59.420 --> 01:42:04.220
We'll see who gets first blood, it will not be Ole Miss just yet.

01:42:05.220 --> 01:42:07.220
Yeah, you talked about game differential being a huge thing.

01:42:07.220 --> 01:42:10.420
It was living a tiebreaker last semester for who made it into playoff.

01:42:10.420 --> 01:42:14.420
So, in series like this, it matters every single moment.

01:42:14.420 --> 01:42:16.020
And Boris recognized that.

01:42:16.020 --> 01:42:19.460
That's why we're getting the third game started off with an Ole Miss lead.

01:42:19.460 --> 01:42:25.700
Yeah, it was a great job by Ole Miss to just keep on attacking in the first 30 seconds of that game.

01:42:25.700 --> 01:42:27.980
If you caught on the right side of your screen,

01:42:27.980 --> 01:42:31.540
Beep sat at that 100 boost, he knew it was coming up soon,

01:42:31.540 --> 01:42:38.420
but quickly left it just before it spawned and had no boost to make that save.

01:42:38.420 --> 01:42:43.540
It's a very vital to maintain that boost control.

01:42:43.540 --> 01:42:47.540
We'll see if Barris has control here, does have a team in and TMS to send that off.

01:42:47.540 --> 01:42:51.540
That was a little awkward for a second. Good thing is Barris at least had his flick off the backboard,

01:42:51.540 --> 01:42:55.540
so despite the low boost, he doesn't get a touch in the way and his teammates are there to back him up.

01:42:55.540 --> 01:43:00.540
First minute or so, here looks like an improvement already for Ole Miss, and they give up a goal across.

01:43:00.540 --> 01:43:05.540
Core never mind, it's all a torn get. They are lucky. I feel like that's the third or fourth they would have given up

01:43:05.540 --> 01:43:08.540
with just overcommitments and an open net.

01:43:08.540 --> 01:43:12.580
Look how it's got in midfield.

01:43:12.580 --> 01:43:15.580
So it's still there looking for a play.

01:43:15.580 --> 01:43:17.260
Can only get past one.

01:43:17.260 --> 01:43:22.340
Everybody on Ole Miss on that back line, on the back wall.

01:43:22.340 --> 01:43:24.980
If he still gets put out, I mean,

01:43:24.980 --> 01:43:28.660
it's so impossible for Ole Miss to cross the midfield line.

01:43:28.660 --> 01:43:31.100
It just seems like Ball State always finds a way

01:43:31.100 --> 01:43:33.140
to stay on the offensive half.

01:43:33.140 --> 01:43:35.500
If they do get over it, definitely contest it.

01:43:35.500 --> 01:43:37.540
It's at least having to use up a ton of their booze,

01:43:37.540 --> 01:43:40.700
a bunch of the resources, multiple players going for the ball at once.

01:43:40.700 --> 01:43:44.380
It just kind of feels like Ole Miss or just, again, still uncomfortable.

01:43:44.380 --> 01:43:46.900
Even if they are finding success, it doesn't necessarily mean the

01:43:46.900 --> 01:43:48.900
uncomfortability has dissipated.

01:43:48.900 --> 01:43:50.900
Another great example I saw, remember what I talked about?

01:43:50.900 --> 01:43:54.220
Stop leaving the open nets. Stop leaving the open nets.

01:43:54.220 --> 01:43:58.740
It's so easy to become overextended and you see TMS is just too close to

01:43:58.740 --> 01:44:04.260
Barus and then in terms of stealth is also on that side wall.

01:44:04.260 --> 01:44:08.100
Their spacing was all towards one side of the field and bunched up,

01:44:08.100 --> 01:44:11.140
and then you leave the counter-attack potential open,

01:44:11.140 --> 01:44:14.260
and Balsay has taken advantage of it all day today.

01:44:14.260 --> 01:44:16.700
Same thing against WVU.

01:44:16.700 --> 01:44:18.900
They keep on finding those great counter-attacks.

01:44:18.900 --> 01:44:22.180
Demiro here, and still finds it opening.

01:44:22.180 --> 01:44:24.500
I kind of was wishing that Goh had actually turned that

01:44:24.500 --> 01:44:25.900
into a perfect inch draw score,

01:44:25.900 --> 01:44:27.820
because at that point I would have to eat my own words

01:44:27.820 --> 01:44:29.460
and be like, yeah, it's not that you left in it open,

01:44:29.460 --> 01:44:31.620
it's just what are you supposed to do against that.

01:44:31.620 --> 01:44:33.220
To be fair, I do think that Ole Miss

01:44:33.220 --> 01:44:35.620
are starting to feel the pressure of the exact moment.

01:44:35.620 --> 01:44:36.660
You can build up good plays.

01:44:36.660 --> 01:44:39.620
You can play probably about four and a half minutes

01:44:39.620 --> 01:44:41.220
of just perfect play in a game like this,

01:44:41.220 --> 01:44:42.620
but if you slip up for a second,

01:44:42.620 --> 01:44:45.740
this is the level of which teams are going to punish you.

01:44:45.740 --> 01:44:47.420
Ball State have done this to many different teams

01:44:47.420 --> 01:44:49.460
throughout their tenure here in CRL,

01:44:49.460 --> 01:44:50.700
and it's not surprising to see

01:44:50.700 --> 01:44:52.340
only this another victim of it.

01:44:52.340 --> 01:44:53.820
The good thing is they've only given up

01:44:53.820 --> 01:44:55.100
one so far in this game.

01:44:55.100 --> 01:44:56.820
It was only about halfway through it.

01:44:56.820 --> 01:44:58.540
There's still plenty of time for a response,

01:44:58.540 --> 01:45:00.140
especially with TMS with a full tank,

01:45:00.140 --> 01:45:01.820
and have everyone leave my words,

01:45:01.820 --> 01:45:03.820
open the way and again ball stages

01:45:03.820 --> 01:45:05.820
support another offense.

01:45:07.820 --> 01:45:10.820
Back to it Bears, Nobooska has some

01:45:10.820 --> 01:45:12.820
feeds over to go.

01:45:12.820 --> 01:45:14.820
Thinking this one up has Oath in midfield

01:45:14.820 --> 01:45:16.820
does drop it down to him a little poke up

01:45:16.820 --> 01:45:18.820
but still is there keeps it close

01:45:18.820 --> 01:45:20.820
and wins that 50.

01:45:20.820 --> 01:45:23.820
Oath on the cut keeps it in midfield

01:45:23.820 --> 01:45:25.820
stealth hurting.

01:45:25.820 --> 01:45:27.820
Does it have a teammate and again the 50s

01:45:27.820 --> 01:45:29.820
comes through great challenges by

01:45:29.820 --> 01:45:35.260
Ball State feeds with a miss. Oath to take over. A bump comes through. Can he follow through?

01:45:35.820 --> 01:45:39.740
It seems like Stealth again on that back wall manages to send it away.

01:45:40.300 --> 01:45:45.420
Holy heavy touch from Stealth and TMS is not aware of that as Oath is able to get to the ball first.

01:45:46.060 --> 01:45:49.340
Probably gets one back out center. TMS on the backboard will recover.

01:45:49.340 --> 01:45:53.100
Let more pressure here from Ball State. Maybe there'll be a follow-up there,

01:45:53.100 --> 01:45:56.700
but I guess the demo was worth enough time to just kind of take this one slowly.

01:45:56.700 --> 01:46:00.040
This one, back at midfield, neither Gun nor Oak will go for it.

01:46:00.040 --> 01:46:02.840
Gah, eventually will go up and Oak will stay on the back for it.

01:46:02.840 --> 01:46:07.140
TMS couldn't be there for the follow-up with low boost, so we'll miss, forced into their half again.

01:46:07.140 --> 01:46:09.560
This one, off the backboard, goes to TMS.

01:46:09.560 --> 01:46:13.780
Knight first touch means he can keep it close, he's gonna look for a pinch, but the pinch just goes to Gah.

01:46:13.780 --> 01:46:16.660
Gah, not gonna find his own touch, or maybe he will!

01:46:16.660 --> 01:46:20.600
A little bit of trickery on the side-balls there, I don't think either team is really expecting it,

01:46:20.600 --> 01:46:25.900
but maybe that's the advantage of Ball State, because with a minute to go here, they are mounting yet another offense.

01:46:26.700 --> 01:46:30.620
Leaves looking and cut in, he's had a quiet game so far.

01:46:30.620 --> 01:46:32.300
Both to pick it up.

01:46:32.300 --> 01:46:34.380
Has boosted the tank, follow up on the side wall,

01:46:34.380 --> 01:46:37.180
go, and mid field, but he gets the pass,

01:46:37.180 --> 01:46:39.020
so he'll take in now.

01:46:39.020 --> 01:46:43.180
Demo, but TMS, has space, has some time,

01:46:43.180 --> 01:46:44.940
sends it up, field even gets a shot,

01:46:44.940 --> 01:46:47.860
a pass, the shot's good by stealth.

01:46:47.860 --> 01:46:50.780
An old miss on top, under the minute mark.

01:46:50.780 --> 01:46:53.220
You gotta feel for, I think it's Oath on the backboard

01:46:53.220 --> 01:46:54.540
here, you can see from this angle,

01:46:54.540 --> 01:46:56.760
The player is just completely covered by the ball.

01:46:56.760 --> 01:46:58.260
He knows that stealth is making a challenge,

01:46:58.260 --> 01:46:59.960
but he's not exactly sure from where.

01:46:59.960 --> 01:47:03.300
Just has to try and dive and make the 50, cannot do so.

01:47:03.300 --> 01:47:04.660
Stuff between a rock and a hard place,

01:47:04.660 --> 01:47:06.380
almost an understatement on that play,

01:47:06.380 --> 01:47:07.940
but if there's a team that can turn it around

01:47:07.940 --> 01:47:10.140
with 30 to go, it's definitely ball state.

01:47:12.260 --> 01:47:14.500
The has some boost to work with,

01:47:14.500 --> 01:47:18.500
does get 50 early and that's the correct thing to do.

01:47:18.500 --> 01:47:21.900
He's still working the line and stealth in there in time.

01:47:21.900 --> 01:47:27.540
doesn't get the touch and everyone needs to go back for ball state on rotation that pass behind

01:47:27.540 --> 01:47:34.860
Gah as well. Open net does roll on in and that's the extra Ole Miss needs to secure this one.

01:47:34.860 --> 01:47:40.020
What's the phrase and I for an I leaves the whole world blind. Open net for open net leaves

01:47:40.020 --> 01:47:45.060
everybody with a goal. TMS taking advantage of the over eagerness of ball state in the closing

01:47:45.060 --> 01:47:49.740
seconds of game and break. We get an extended series Ole Miss finally showing up in the ways

01:47:49.740 --> 01:47:53.900
that we were hoping for. It's definitely last second Morales to get them here, but you know what?

01:47:53.900 --> 01:47:58.140
I'll take that over nothing here, Chicks. Game number three, going to Ole Miss. We got a series.

01:47:58.140 --> 01:48:05.580
It's going to continue. Yeah, I think overall a great job of adjusting for Ole Miss. They kind

01:48:05.580 --> 01:48:11.820
of understood at this point what Ball State brings to the table, how they're going to attack,

01:48:11.820 --> 01:48:16.940
who has the hot hand, which it's been Gus still. And then at the end of the day,

01:48:16.940 --> 01:48:23.020
finding their own counter-attacks. They're still doing so good all in the saves. This time seven

01:48:23.020 --> 01:48:27.900
shots for Ball State. Six saves by Ole Miss. The one that isn't it is the one that goes on in.

01:48:27.900 --> 01:48:32.220
Ole Miss has just been better on that defensive line. Yeah, they absolutely have and I think

01:48:32.220 --> 01:48:36.380
that's also due in part to the fact that they have played a majority defense throughout this

01:48:36.380 --> 01:48:40.060
series. They've been forced into their own half at many different points. So you have to imagine

01:48:40.060 --> 01:48:43.900
they're a little more prepared for a bit of a back and forth type of game whereas Ball

01:48:43.900 --> 01:48:46.980
All state are probably used to the smothering attitude that they've had throughout the entire

01:48:46.980 --> 01:48:47.980
time.

01:48:47.980 --> 01:48:51.500
There's constant pressure, constant offense, constant midfield challenges, and now that's

01:48:51.500 --> 01:48:52.700
not working as much anymore.

01:48:52.700 --> 01:48:55.940
So they have to try to go back to the drawing board, which is why I stated coming into this

01:48:55.940 --> 01:48:59.300
series, you can't necessarily try to make the adjustments immediately.

01:48:59.300 --> 01:49:02.700
You need to see what works and works at least enough for two games.

01:49:02.700 --> 01:49:05.700
Now here in game four, this is where Coach BK is going to have to get in their

01:49:05.700 --> 01:49:07.460
ears and start to make some changes.

01:49:07.460 --> 01:49:09.860
And I'm not surprised if they were able to adapt quickly.

01:49:09.860 --> 01:49:12.860
BK has been with this roster for, I think, like four years now at this point.

01:49:12.860 --> 01:49:16.460
So you have to imagine that's prepared as we move into Neo-Tokyo.

01:49:16.460 --> 01:49:20.380
Yeah, it'll be an adjustment for Ball State again.

01:49:20.380 --> 01:49:23.080
They've always been close all game of the Ole Miss.

01:49:23.080 --> 01:49:26.980
Really this was a 2-1 game other than they were trying to get a last second opportunity

01:49:26.980 --> 01:49:27.980
to tie it up.

01:49:27.980 --> 01:49:31.820
So this has been a very close series throughout.

01:49:31.820 --> 01:49:35.700
It's still coming down to mistakes and individual efforts.

01:49:35.700 --> 01:49:39.820
If Ball State can keep having individual efforts that end up working out, then we're

01:49:39.820 --> 01:49:40.820
getting that.

01:49:40.820 --> 01:49:46.820
miss can keep on saving all of these then those things need to get creative again. I'm

01:49:46.820 --> 01:49:52.820
figuring out how to score successfully. How about just fiends 15 the entire team? That's

01:49:52.820 --> 01:49:56.500
really consistent thing at least so far. It feels like fiends with or without foos just

01:49:56.500 --> 01:50:00.100
knows how to muscle his way through almost every challenge. Might not be enough though

01:50:00.100 --> 01:50:03.460
and as we get into game number four it's going to take that creativity of all state

01:50:03.460 --> 01:50:07.220
to turn things around. Not a bad play through the corner though. Force TMS into a bit of an

01:50:07.220 --> 01:50:10.580
awkward scenario as you take out a couple of challenges and give fiends a chance to once

01:50:10.580 --> 01:50:12.900
Once again, Muscle threw a 50.

01:50:12.900 --> 01:50:17.460
Not quite enough to find a shot, but it does land them in Ole Miss' territory, as they're

01:50:17.460 --> 01:50:19.460
in really good comp, have to leave even more space.

01:50:19.460 --> 01:50:23.020
TMS, they need to make a challenge, and he waits still the right time to do so, picks

01:50:23.020 --> 01:50:26.700
up the boost, and gets the touch, which leaves this one back out-center where is

01:50:26.700 --> 01:50:27.700
Phoebes?

01:50:27.700 --> 01:50:29.860
Not gonna cut, he'll steal the boost in the corner instead.

01:50:29.860 --> 01:50:33.380
In all state, maybe going back to that more pressured offense they do not want

01:50:33.380 --> 01:50:34.380
to get over-eager.

01:50:34.380 --> 01:50:38.380
Mmm, open opportunity here, but still had boost.

01:50:38.380 --> 01:50:44.640
Feeds had tied here too, but instead just sends it towards the ceiling has a 50 oath comes through TMS there in time

01:50:44.640 --> 01:50:47.660
And God is the last back sending it to his corner

01:50:47.740 --> 01:50:53.340
No one picks up that hundred boost and for now our opportunity on the 50 a miss touches

01:50:53.340 --> 01:50:56.660
Well, go waits for oath gets the one demo

01:50:56.660 --> 01:51:02.440
But can't do much more than that. Ball State had an opportunity, but couldn't get a shot out of it

01:51:02.700 --> 01:51:05.080
Smart at TMS though. Just keep that one close

01:51:05.080 --> 01:51:06.840
He knows his teammates are nowhere to be found,

01:51:06.840 --> 01:51:09.280
so he's got to make sure that if he does allow a shot,

01:51:09.280 --> 01:51:10.440
it's at least a difficult one.

01:51:10.440 --> 01:51:12.160
And that's why you don't see the follow-up challenge

01:51:12.160 --> 01:51:12.880
from Ball State.

01:51:12.880 --> 01:51:14.440
They know it is at least going to be a 50,

01:51:14.440 --> 01:51:15.680
and there's no point to that.

01:51:15.680 --> 01:51:18.640
Instead, they'd rather go back to midfield and start again.

01:51:18.640 --> 01:51:20.480
When you've got feeps on the ball getting more 50s,

01:51:20.480 --> 01:51:21.240
why wouldn't she?

01:51:21.240 --> 01:51:22.480
Another boost steal on the corner,

01:51:22.480 --> 01:51:24.640
go up and try to get this round to the MS.

01:51:24.640 --> 01:51:26.000
The MS been the dedicated third man,

01:51:26.000 --> 01:51:27.640
it feels like for most of this game,

01:51:27.640 --> 01:51:29.520
whether by choice or just by happenstance,

01:51:29.520 --> 01:51:30.480
it's not going to make a difference,

01:51:30.480 --> 01:51:33.320
because they continue to stay on this defensive stance.

01:51:33.320 --> 01:51:34.280
Two minutes gone here.

01:51:34.280 --> 01:51:38.280
No goals found so far, but balls, they feel like they're on the precipice of one at any moment.

01:51:39.280 --> 01:51:42.280
This one low boost across the field.

01:51:42.280 --> 01:51:45.280
No touch comes out just yet, Bebe's on the flipper, he said.

01:51:45.280 --> 01:51:49.280
Does he get the 50 and a 50 again? Does it sneak on in? No!

01:51:49.280 --> 01:51:52.280
Stealth denies just rolling it off the post.

01:51:52.280 --> 01:51:56.280
Oath, a phenomenal back touch, but nobody was there to collect it.

01:51:56.280 --> 01:51:58.280
Oath again still has boost.

01:51:58.280 --> 01:52:00.280
Great recovery on the turn.

01:52:00.280 --> 01:52:01.280
50 goes out to midfield.

01:52:01.280 --> 01:52:05.680
I feel God has the deep back just like that.

01:52:05.680 --> 01:52:07.560
Ball State, get it.

01:52:07.560 --> 01:52:12.040
If you don't succeed at first, you try, try, try, try, try again.

01:52:12.040 --> 01:52:16.480
Five total shots required before Ball State finds their first just before half time.

01:52:16.480 --> 01:52:18.840
But like we said, that felt inevitable.

01:52:18.840 --> 01:52:22.040
Ole Miss zero shots registered through the first half.

01:52:22.040 --> 01:52:24.560
That was Ball State just waiting for the perfect moment.

01:52:24.560 --> 01:52:28.760
And when it arrived, they did not miss.

01:52:28.760 --> 01:52:29.920
Great opportunity.

01:52:29.920 --> 01:52:40.600
Again, these are coming so few and far between, so it's important to capitalize and Baris just puts a good shot on.

01:52:40.600 --> 01:52:44.680
I think this is a light double commit, but really just an early pre-jump.

01:52:44.680 --> 01:52:50.720
God gets up before the shot's even fired, which I guess I get, but not if Eves is the second man and has no poos.

01:52:50.720 --> 01:52:56.640
You're just leaving Thebes with a guessing game of maybe I get the shot of a prediction early and maybe I don't.

01:52:56.640 --> 01:52:59.160
Either way, the pre-jump there is just not going to be enough.

01:52:59.160 --> 01:53:02.400
A bit of a momentary lapse in judgment, if you will, for Ball State.

01:53:02.400 --> 01:53:05.240
It's got to hurt after all that effort just to find the first goal.

01:53:06.520 --> 01:53:10.880
This definitely hurt the worst after taking nearly three minutes to find a goal.

01:53:11.880 --> 01:53:14.320
Your opponent finding one in mere seconds.

01:53:14.920 --> 01:53:17.280
Bears touch again just off the backboard.

01:53:17.320 --> 01:53:21.600
Oath gets his boost stolen from him, and they still look to extend up field.

01:53:21.600 --> 01:53:28.800
So trying to make matters worse, but can't do anything on the bumps and demos front.

01:53:28.800 --> 01:53:34.240
Low boost other than Oath will go up for this one, a bit of a double commit, and Oath still

01:53:34.240 --> 01:53:35.640
finds an extra touch.

01:53:35.640 --> 01:53:39.840
I wasn't expecting that either, and that will leave so much pressure that was coming

01:53:39.840 --> 01:53:41.360
at them.

01:53:41.360 --> 01:53:45.440
Just like that, another touch comes through on the shot, and it's a clear again for

01:53:45.440 --> 01:53:46.440
Ole Miss that manage.

01:53:46.440 --> 01:53:50.480
Look how quickly though we're seeing Ball State go back for these plays now in comparison

01:53:50.480 --> 01:53:51.480
before.

01:53:51.480 --> 01:53:55.400
have the second man there dying immediately and even call up the third pass midfield instead though

01:53:55.400 --> 01:53:59.800
they're trying to play full force and full field right now without making mistakes they recognize

01:53:59.800 --> 01:54:05.720
Ole Miss have seen the moments that they can score what if an oath can score from wherever forget

01:54:05.720 --> 01:54:09.480
who cares about strategy who cares about boost management who cares about rotation just send it

01:54:09.480 --> 01:54:16.920
to oath and let him double it's all been such an individual effort sort of series and that one

01:54:16.920 --> 01:54:21.920
It's all Oath. He needs to capitalize on the touch and make a different cool angle shot.

01:54:21.920 --> 01:54:23.920
And he does exactly that.

01:54:23.920 --> 01:54:27.920
Again, Ball State has had so many more shots than Ole Miss this game.

01:54:27.920 --> 01:54:30.920
There are nine compared to the three of Ole Miss.

01:54:30.920 --> 01:54:33.920
And this is still a one-goal game.

01:54:33.920 --> 01:54:38.920
It's the difference between opportunities and saves in the last second ones.

01:54:38.920 --> 01:54:42.920
And now with a minute left, this is where we're at.

01:54:42.920 --> 01:54:44.920
I thought he was going to score that, man.

01:54:44.920 --> 01:54:51.120
a little part of me watched them go backwards like if anybody's gonna hit this angle it's gonna be oh he did not and instead we

01:54:51.120 --> 01:54:55.400
Continue the scenario you just painted again so many shots for ball state

01:54:55.400 --> 01:55:00.280
But it doesn't matter who's are the racer thin margins were playing with here 40 seconds left

01:55:00.280 --> 01:55:05.180
It's got to be something from Ole Miss you have done many spectacular things throughout this game and series

01:55:05.200 --> 01:55:08.160
Can you find one more miracle to happen in its play?

01:55:08.160 --> 01:55:14.000
half a minute left on the clock and it seems like Ole Miss is just two

01:55:14.000 --> 01:55:20.600
turtled up bears not much boost picks up that one off the clear no one can get

01:55:20.600 --> 01:55:26.360
back to it another yellow a boost steal and has run out for Ole Miss one final

01:55:26.360 --> 01:55:33.800
opportunity this one quickly taken up by Guff both coming through still there

01:55:33.800 --> 01:55:39.800
the 50 in midfield can Ole Miss crossmen feel they do here but the deflection towards the corner

01:55:39.800 --> 01:55:45.080
keeps this ball down on the ground and Ball State secure the 3-1 series.

01:55:45.080 --> 01:55:48.520
As little more tumultuous than they were probably expecting, giving up a game to

01:55:48.520 --> 01:55:52.840
Ole Miss considering circumstances probably wasn't in the cards initially. However,

01:55:52.840 --> 01:55:56.840
Ole Miss I think too at least proved that it can keep up with the best that CRL has to offer

01:55:56.840 --> 01:56:01.240
and Ball State starting to become maybe the best that CRL has to offer. They're starting to

01:56:01.240 --> 01:56:04.180
show themselves as not just a quality team, but one that could sneak in a

01:56:04.180 --> 01:56:07.680
playoffs if they play this right. Really impressive stuff from Ball State in

01:56:07.680 --> 01:56:11.960
back to back series today. They deserve these two wins. Yeah, back to back can

01:56:11.960 --> 01:56:16.640
be either I would say it seems biggest downfall or a biggest victory

01:56:16.640 --> 01:56:20.280
depending on how they're feeling in the day and how they're due on

01:56:20.280 --> 01:56:24.760
stream. But Ball State immediately take a very good winning against WVU

01:56:24.760 --> 01:56:28.960
today and then they manage a very different series against Ole Miss

01:56:28.960 --> 01:56:35.320
And they still managed to be on top, I think, ultimately still because of that individual effort.

01:56:35.320 --> 01:56:37.560
Oh, thank God, looked very solid today.

01:56:37.560 --> 01:56:43.360
Of course, this tour has been a dynamic duo for something like two years now, not maybe longer.

01:56:43.360 --> 01:56:48.560
They've been together for so long, and once they get clicking, we saw that chemistry on the field.

01:56:48.560 --> 01:56:53.060
Look, if they can carry Alpha Kept to RLCS, they can do anything at this point,

01:56:53.060 --> 01:56:56.160
including continue on wins and continue on with our day.

01:56:56.160 --> 01:56:58.760
Guys, that's only our second series of the day at this point.

01:56:58.760 --> 01:57:03.260
Ball State might be done, but we're going to see a return from W- er, no, not from WVU.

01:57:03.260 --> 01:57:05.140
Actually, we're going to see Concord get the back-to-back.

01:57:05.140 --> 01:57:06.840
For some reason, I thought they were getting the back-to-back.

01:57:06.840 --> 01:57:10.560
No, instead, we'll get the definitive number one team in CRL right now.

01:57:10.560 --> 01:57:12.300
Undefeated, but that could change.

01:57:12.300 --> 01:57:13.060
Do not go anywhere.

01:57:13.060 --> 01:57:15.760
When we return, we've got even more CRL action.

01:57:28.760 --> 01:57:33.760
I know you said stay down and please be

01:57:33.760 --> 01:57:36.760
But I'm getting tired of it

01:57:36.760 --> 01:57:39.760
Told me I'd never be happy

01:57:39.760 --> 01:57:41.760
I'm not sad at all

01:57:43.760 --> 01:57:45.760
Baby, I'm afraid

01:57:46.760 --> 01:57:49.760
All the way I'm bringing you home

01:57:50.760 --> 01:57:53.760
You're gonna see me on every bi-hazardy

01:58:28.760 --> 01:58:32.760
They said I'm unique, I don't care at all

01:58:35.260 --> 01:58:37.260
They can't be honest with you

01:58:38.260 --> 01:58:40.260
I'm only really much more unique

01:58:42.260 --> 01:58:45.260
You're gonna see me on every passing day

01:58:58.760 --> 01:59:00.760
You won't let go

01:59:04.760 --> 01:59:06.760
You won't let go

01:59:09.760 --> 01:59:11.760
You'll never learn to hold

01:59:11.760 --> 01:59:14.760
Your full potential

01:59:14.760 --> 01:59:17.760
If you ever dare

01:59:17.760 --> 01:59:20.760
Go for a home

01:59:20.760 --> 01:59:22.760
Replace your name

01:59:23.760 --> 01:59:26.760
Just be something you say

01:59:58.760 --> 02:00:00.760
I

02:00:11.840 --> 02:00:15.120
Go and drive mother lonely night don't know what to do

02:00:17.800 --> 02:00:21.480
Fine it seems like going out every night when it's not with you

02:00:22.760 --> 02:00:25.120
I see a whipping down the four five

02:00:25.120 --> 02:00:32.120
It was a sub, but it was going down I can't remember how to feel alive

02:00:32.120 --> 02:00:38.120
Feel alive without a home I wonder what I would say

02:00:38.120 --> 02:00:46.120
If you stand, if the times are changing The games we play won't work for the day

02:00:46.120 --> 02:00:51.120
But you're having me for everything Yeah, I was through it all again

02:00:51.120 --> 02:00:53.120
I

02:01:21.120 --> 02:01:23.780
And I don't wanna see it anymore

02:01:23.780 --> 02:01:26.040
But I don't wanna see it anymore

02:01:26.040 --> 02:01:28.560
Don't wanna just take it off

02:01:28.560 --> 02:01:30.660
Let the universe run you and them

02:01:30.660 --> 02:01:33.700
But you keep going on my line like I'm with you again

02:01:33.700 --> 02:01:36.580
It's just like 1996 and you're doing that thing

02:01:36.580 --> 02:01:39.560
You know you keep on lying to yourself about everything

02:01:39.560 --> 02:01:42.600
We've been told it'd be cool if you let off on it

02:01:42.600 --> 02:01:46.420
And that beat the flag it's like you bleeding out your bucket

02:01:46.420 --> 02:01:49.400
You're acting chubby, telling everyone you're working

02:01:49.400 --> 02:01:54.400
I know you mad and honestly you're probably the one I would say

02:01:54.400 --> 02:01:59.400
If you stand, if you time's a chance and you can't repel

02:01:59.400 --> 02:02:05.400
I don't wait for the day, but you're hurting me for everything

02:02:05.400 --> 02:02:09.400
Yeah, we're doing it all again, we're talking slow

02:02:09.400 --> 02:02:12.400
And you know it ain't no matter who's broken the line

02:02:12.400 --> 02:02:15.400
And we can both pretend that we love it

02:02:15.400 --> 02:02:17.400
We don't wanna know

02:02:17.400 --> 02:02:20.400
No one just like you

02:02:24.400 --> 02:02:27.400
No one just like you

02:02:30.400 --> 02:02:33.400
No one just like you

02:02:36.400 --> 02:02:39.400
No one just like you

02:03:09.400 --> 02:03:14.400
It's not easy to breath less.

02:03:14.400 --> 02:03:19.400
Changes what you think is possible.

02:03:19.400 --> 02:03:24.400
Got me too.

02:03:24.400 --> 02:03:29.400
Got me too.

02:03:29.400 --> 02:03:33.400
Got me too.

02:03:33.400 --> 02:03:38.400
Got me too.

02:05:38.400 --> 02:05:42.840
Yeah, sounds great. Today was either going to be a great day or a terrible day for double

02:05:42.840 --> 02:05:48.160
headers. I feel like the first game is so important. So it was great to be here to know.

02:05:48.160 --> 02:05:52.800
Happy for it to be a great day for you guys. Now you've been coaching on CRL space for six

02:05:52.800 --> 02:05:58.400
years and it's your fourth season with God and oath. So really curious bringing on Phoebes.

02:05:58.400 --> 02:06:03.560
How has the game plan sort of molded? Has it been more so about Phoebes fitting in

02:06:03.560 --> 02:06:08.000
with what you're used to with gun oath or has Phoebes really kind of reshaped

02:06:08.000 --> 02:06:09.800
what this team looks like.

02:06:09.800 --> 02:06:11.560
I think it's been super impressive,

02:06:11.560 --> 02:06:13.960
but I'll be honest with the duo of Othin Gah.

02:06:13.960 --> 02:06:15.560
I think you could put almost any third there

02:06:15.560 --> 02:06:16.400
and they would be.

02:06:18.840 --> 02:06:21.600
I think you're some of the most underrated players in CRL.

02:06:21.600 --> 02:06:23.680
So I'm not shocked at the result.

02:06:23.680 --> 02:06:26.000
I think it just took a little bit of time.

02:06:26.000 --> 02:06:28.240
I just think Othin Gah maybe don't have those,

02:06:28.240 --> 02:06:30.440
the name recognition as much as getting there

02:06:30.440 --> 02:06:33.240
by playing, you know, it's becoming a bigger streamer.

02:06:33.240 --> 02:06:35.920
But with feeds, he's listened, you know,

02:06:35.920 --> 02:06:37.240
this season was,

02:06:37.240 --> 02:06:38.800
I think spring season was a learning season,

02:06:38.800 --> 02:06:41.680
and it was kind of an acceleration with NACE and the CRL

02:06:41.680 --> 02:06:43.600
running at the end, and now, I think,

02:06:43.600 --> 02:06:45.000
can follow your turn to see some results.

02:06:45.000 --> 02:06:47.520
But it's just getting back on the path,

02:06:47.520 --> 02:06:50.920
and it took a little bit of time going forward.

02:06:50.920 --> 02:06:53.360
Well, I see Ghana's top 100 leaderboards, too.

02:06:53.360 --> 02:06:56.920
So he's the name I recognize, that's for sure.

02:06:56.920 --> 02:06:59.280
Listen, when you talk about these players kind of being

02:06:59.280 --> 02:07:01.720
underrated, they really do shine in some great ways.

02:07:01.720 --> 02:07:05.200
Gah had those reset double taps up the ceiling.

02:07:05.200 --> 02:07:08.400
Both has had some monster counter attack redirects.

02:07:08.400 --> 02:07:10.120
You guys are lightning fast on the counter attack.

02:07:10.120 --> 02:07:11.400
You look great on defense.

02:07:11.400 --> 02:07:13.040
Feebs is really a playmaker.

02:07:13.040 --> 02:07:16.040
To you, what is all state's greatest asset?

02:07:16.040 --> 02:07:17.480
Like when push comes to shove,

02:07:17.480 --> 02:07:19.440
what do you think the best tactic out of all state

02:07:19.440 --> 02:07:22.720
right now is so you've gotten all these wins in league play?

02:07:22.720 --> 02:07:24.160
I think we can make something out of nothing.

02:07:24.160 --> 02:07:25.680
I mean, I think the West Virginia series,

02:07:25.680 --> 02:07:27.720
I think one or two of those games,

02:07:27.720 --> 02:07:29.040
they probably had double the shots,

02:07:29.040 --> 02:07:32.040
but our transition out of defense is phenomenal.

02:07:32.040 --> 02:07:34.520
Our comms are always calm and cool collected.

02:07:34.520 --> 02:07:37.660
And I'm never really worried even with zero boost,

02:07:37.660 --> 02:07:38.900
even with somebody who's got, I mean,

02:07:38.900 --> 02:07:41.260
got primarily the place more of a third man,

02:07:41.260 --> 02:07:43.660
but you can make some of the craziest offensive plays for us.

02:07:43.660 --> 02:07:46.860
So I think, you know, just trusting in what goes,

02:07:46.860 --> 02:07:48.500
looking downfield, letting oath and feeds

02:07:48.500 --> 02:07:51.140
just cause complete havoc and then relying

02:07:51.140 --> 02:07:54.080
on some mechanical genius and those guys.

02:07:54.080 --> 02:07:56.100
I see those wall dashes on zero boost.

02:07:56.100 --> 02:07:57.420
They know how to keep the speed,

02:07:57.420 --> 02:08:00.140
even if it's in that circumstance.

02:08:00.140 --> 02:08:02.380
Finally, we always like to look forward.

02:08:02.380 --> 02:08:05.140
We know now, of course, if you didn't already know, folks,

02:08:05.140 --> 02:08:06.620
Ball State ceiling, it is high,

02:08:06.620 --> 02:08:09.140
but I want to know how high you've got Baylor

02:08:09.140 --> 02:08:13.220
and Maryville still on your schedule for later on.

02:08:13.220 --> 02:08:15.860
Either one of those matches that you're really looking at

02:08:15.860 --> 02:08:18.780
when it comes to pushing into that top four spot.

02:08:18.780 --> 02:08:20.100
I think Maryville is a good benchmark.

02:08:20.100 --> 02:08:22.780
I think there's what if I maybe is number three right now

02:08:22.780 --> 02:08:23.820
behind Concord Northwood.

02:08:23.820 --> 02:08:25.220
We've already played those schools,

02:08:25.220 --> 02:08:27.100
so unfortunately we went 0-2,

02:08:27.100 --> 02:08:29.100
but the series were somewhat close.

02:08:29.100 --> 02:08:31.420
Those are fantastic teams.

02:08:31.420 --> 02:08:36.220
With Baylor, statistically, we've honestly had a really good record against them.

02:08:36.220 --> 02:08:40.020
I think we're three and one versus them, including on land.

02:08:40.020 --> 02:08:44.220
So we feel confident going into that matchup, but Baylor's playing extremely well this season.

02:08:44.220 --> 02:08:48.420
So they look like they're very motivated this year compared to the spring.

02:08:48.420 --> 02:08:50.720
Even though they still play great this spring, but Fully looked really good.

02:08:50.720 --> 02:08:52.920
And Maryville, you know, that's kind of the benchmark.

02:08:52.920 --> 02:08:54.720
So we're trying to get that top four.

02:08:54.720 --> 02:08:57.120
Today was a great way to go to and out.

02:08:57.120 --> 02:08:58.020
Certainly was.

02:08:58.020 --> 02:09:00.120
Ride the wave, ride the momentum, BK.

02:09:00.120 --> 02:09:03.720
any final thoughts here before we let you go here for the interview?

02:09:03.720 --> 02:09:06.120
Yeah, I appreciate you guys doing this.

02:09:06.120 --> 02:09:11.520
Just glad to be 2-0 and shout out to Ball State and just keep it on board.

02:09:11.520 --> 02:09:13.520
Absolutely, congrats on the big day, BK.

02:09:13.520 --> 02:09:14.620
We'll see you again soon.

02:09:14.620 --> 02:09:15.520
Thank you.

02:09:15.520 --> 02:09:17.520
Thanks a lot.

02:09:17.520 --> 02:09:19.720
That's the boots on the ground.

02:09:19.720 --> 02:09:21.220
Journalism, I love Pyro.

02:09:21.220 --> 02:09:23.120
Jay, for so much of doing, thanks so much for the interview.

02:09:23.120 --> 02:09:25.720
I got a lot of insight about that last series.

02:09:25.720 --> 02:09:28.220
Bass, I thought something was interesting.

02:09:28.220 --> 02:09:29.820
BK had said, oh, thank God.

02:09:29.820 --> 02:09:34.620
most underrated duo in all CLL. Is that true? And if so, why is that the case you think?

02:09:35.180 --> 02:09:39.180
I don't disagree. I mean, it's pretty hard to disagree considering this team's been around

02:09:39.180 --> 02:09:43.020
for forever. And I feel like they don't get their flowers as much as they probably should.

02:09:43.020 --> 02:09:46.860
Now granted, part of the reason why is that it feels like every year we've got questions for

02:09:46.860 --> 02:09:50.700
the third of Ball State. This might be the first year I don't necessarily have a ton of

02:09:50.700 --> 02:09:55.260
questions. Beef looks good, man. And again, being a freshman and coming in and doing this,

02:09:55.260 --> 02:09:59.660
very impressive. Yeah, you know, Fyro, you had a chance to really follow up when it was like,

02:09:59.660 --> 02:10:03.420
hey man, Peebs is great. I'm glad he's working in there, but the other two are so strong,

02:10:03.420 --> 02:10:08.940
our third can slot in. I feel like when you have a one-two punch that's so good with chemistry,

02:10:08.940 --> 02:10:12.780
a third really has to work to not get in the other two players way.

02:10:13.500 --> 02:10:17.820
Yeah, and that's really what I wanted to drill down on, like were they more welcoming of what

02:10:17.820 --> 02:10:22.700
Peebs could do with the team and reshape it, or is it really just you have this figured

02:10:22.700 --> 02:10:30.140
out four seasons now in their fourth season with God and oh if you might as well just get that mold

02:10:30.140 --> 02:10:35.900
and see what works and you really there really is no reason to change what they do because it is

02:10:35.900 --> 02:10:41.980
what DK said that they do best make something out of nothing they did that today. You know what

02:10:41.980 --> 02:10:47.340
not to take anything away from Ole Miss they had some flashes of brilliance there checks out what

02:10:47.340 --> 02:10:51.580
really went wrong for them today we just just caught in the crosshairs of a team's strongest

02:10:51.580 --> 02:10:54.660
ball state, or is there something fundamental that can work on moving forward?

02:10:54.660 --> 02:10:57.860
I mean, ultimately, they made a lot of mistakes in this one.

02:10:57.860 --> 02:11:03.420
We mentioned right during game one, there was a field backflip moment, and that goal

02:11:03.420 --> 02:11:08.300
went in, and that was pretty much the game, you know, and those moments can decide how

02:11:08.300 --> 02:11:09.580
our series goes.

02:11:09.580 --> 02:11:15.660
I also think, as well as they did defensively, they just were not getting shots today.

02:11:15.660 --> 02:11:18.800
Each and every game it seemed like ball state had three to four times the amount

02:11:18.800 --> 02:11:22.540
of shots that the likes of will missed it. And if you're not getting a field and

02:11:22.540 --> 02:11:26.200
you're not finding opportunities to score, then you just won't score. And

02:11:26.200 --> 02:11:30.100
that's how it is at the end of the day. You can't just purely play off of the

02:11:30.100 --> 02:11:34.300
chance of going and rebounding and making those other sorts of counter

02:11:34.300 --> 02:11:38.140
attack plays. That is like Ali inspirational, right? Sometimes you're just

02:11:38.140 --> 02:11:42.020
gonna go for it, you know, make your own offense. But speaking of

02:11:42.020 --> 02:11:46.460
congratulations to Ball State and their offense going two and O playing

02:11:46.460 --> 02:11:50.200
double duty, but our next matchup is going to be something interesting too, because one

02:11:50.200 --> 02:11:56.800
of the teams is pulling double duty as well. It's Concord taking on Cumberland and the story

02:11:56.800 --> 02:12:04.760
of Concord has just been goals upon goals upon goals. I mean, the game has been their oyster

02:12:04.760 --> 02:12:10.800
six no going into this one with a plus double digit game. Take a look at the lineup there

02:12:10.800 --> 02:12:15.140
of Concord, Chris, me, Rosie and some last take it on the couple entry of Cosy

02:12:15.140 --> 02:12:19.700
night and Polo if you saw earlier on this stream this season.

02:12:19.700 --> 02:12:21.100
Kyle I'm gonna start with you.

02:12:21.100 --> 02:12:23.260
This could be one of the matchups.

02:12:23.260 --> 02:12:25.500
I could really see the show here tonight.

02:12:25.500 --> 02:12:31.020
Absolutely, I mean it's all a test of who can do some damage to Concord

02:12:31.020 --> 02:12:33.820
because apparently no one really can.

02:12:33.820 --> 02:12:36.060
And Cumberland's an interesting case study.

02:12:36.060 --> 02:12:40.700
I mean you have another team like any R this league play semester

02:12:40.700 --> 02:12:43.940
that have those two players that we know from that team

02:12:43.940 --> 02:12:45.180
plus a new third.

02:12:45.180 --> 02:12:47.980
It seems to really work out right now for ball state.

02:12:47.980 --> 02:12:51.180
But the question is, can Nitya and Polar

02:12:51.180 --> 02:12:53.580
have that substitution here of Kazi

02:12:53.580 --> 02:12:55.940
to work the same wonders?

02:12:55.940 --> 02:13:00.940
Bass, I feel like sometimes Cumberland is in third gear.

02:13:00.940 --> 02:13:03.540
They seem to be world beaters, and then some weeks

02:13:03.540 --> 02:13:05.180
you come on and you're like, man,

02:13:05.180 --> 02:13:07.540
are they're using a high latency controller?

02:13:07.540 --> 02:13:08.820
What's going on here?

02:13:08.820 --> 02:13:10.820
What fight are we going to get today in your opinion?

02:13:13.620 --> 02:13:19.380
You don't know. I want to say we're going to get the highest highs here for Cumberland.

02:13:19.380 --> 02:13:25.140
The problem is that they do this every season. They start off really high and then as the season

02:13:25.140 --> 02:13:30.180
progresses they start to find a middle round where they more or less live. We're halfway through so

02:13:30.180 --> 02:13:34.340
theoretically they should be hitting that plateau that we've seen every season from them

02:13:34.340 --> 02:13:38.740
and honestly this might not even be to their own detriment. This might just be

02:13:38.740 --> 02:13:39.740
because they're playing Concorde.

02:13:39.740 --> 02:13:42.740
Like at the end of the day, we got to admit that it's Concorde.

02:13:42.740 --> 02:13:46.420
So no matter what the results happen here, if it's a win, incredible.

02:13:46.420 --> 02:13:49.900
If it's a loss, you can't necessarily dog on Gumberland too hard

02:13:49.900 --> 02:13:52.300
because it's Concorde.

02:13:52.300 --> 02:13:53.140
Yeah, absolutely.

02:13:53.140 --> 02:13:57.820
Look, you can't really understate how hard it is to be so good

02:13:57.820 --> 02:13:59.620
at this format, at this league play.

02:13:59.620 --> 02:14:02.740
It takes out of any program to even get to the dance,

02:14:02.740 --> 02:14:05.260
to see such domination in the beginning of the season,

02:14:05.260 --> 02:14:07.540
something to write home about.

02:14:07.540 --> 02:14:09.220
Again, the Cumberland woes.

02:14:09.220 --> 02:14:11.740
They're coming off three straight losses

02:14:11.740 --> 02:14:14.020
to Akron, West Virginia, and Northwood.

02:14:14.020 --> 02:14:16.900
So they're looking to find a way to stop that bleeding.

02:14:16.900 --> 02:14:18.140
Jax, let me ask you this.

02:14:18.140 --> 02:14:19.180
You're a Cumberland.

02:14:19.180 --> 02:14:21.340
You're coming off a streak and not really feeling it.

02:14:21.340 --> 02:14:24.060
You had a bit of swag going into the season.

02:14:24.060 --> 02:14:26.700
It's not going the way that you want to.

02:14:26.700 --> 02:14:29.380
What point do you throw the whole playbook out

02:14:29.380 --> 02:14:30.220
and start over?

02:14:30.220 --> 02:14:32.620
Or do you even do that at all?

02:14:32.620 --> 02:14:34.620
I mean, at this point, I think

02:14:34.620 --> 02:14:36.100
if you're going to play against Concord,

02:14:36.100 --> 02:14:44.220
you should just throw out the entire kind of playbook due to the fact that Concord is now

02:14:44.220 --> 02:14:55.020
entirely a European roster with Rezzi and is a absolutely stacked roster at that as well.

02:14:55.020 --> 02:15:00.660
Like if anything, Polar might understand them the most, being that we also have a higher

02:15:00.660 --> 02:15:09.300
majority of European versus NA players in this matchup to begin with. But it's pretty crazy

02:15:09.300 --> 02:15:16.180
to note that this matchup is going to be the European play style at its epitome.

02:15:17.140 --> 02:15:23.540
Yeah. And Pyro, I am well versed in how this team looks like with Helix who's not going to be in

02:15:23.540 --> 02:15:27.380
action here today. What's something we can expect as far as a difference of offensive or defense

02:15:27.380 --> 02:15:31.620
attack. If it is going to be any different night and day, there's no roster lineup.

02:15:32.580 --> 02:15:37.780
I think it's going to be about the mechanical difference that we see. I mean, Helix really

02:15:37.780 --> 02:15:42.100
is a player that you want to substitute if you have him on any roster. But that's the

02:15:42.100 --> 02:15:46.740
thing about Concord. You take these three starters and definitely including Rezi.

02:15:46.740 --> 02:15:53.380
You put them in an individual play and that's going to be a 50-50 you want to be careful

02:15:53.380 --> 02:15:59.220
about. They're going to flip reset, air dribble, double tap, do everything that they can to make

02:15:59.220 --> 02:16:06.340
those moments uncomfortable. I don't mind that situation for Niteya and Polar. I just haven't seen

02:16:06.340 --> 02:16:12.100
enough of this trio to stand their ground against that ID offensive talent.

02:16:13.220 --> 02:16:17.620
I do see a path of victory here for Carmel and please shot me down the whole panel if I'm

02:16:17.620 --> 02:16:22.420
standing this incorrectly. You look at the game differential for a team like Concord,

02:16:22.420 --> 02:16:28.660
double digits 14 plus 14 excuse me it has been on an absolute care not many

02:16:28.660 --> 02:16:32.860
series see game five I don't think we've seen on the team one game five thus far

02:16:32.860 --> 02:16:38.060
so maybe this may be the chaotic good and bash up me down if I'm wrong you just

02:16:38.060 --> 02:16:41.860
hang out in front of net and slow things down slow the pace to make it as

02:16:41.860 --> 02:16:46.580
annoying as possible the knuckleball idea for doing a baseball analogy am I

02:16:46.580 --> 02:16:52.180
crazy you let me know it's not the worst idea but I also do think I'm

02:16:52.180 --> 02:16:55.060
and fearful of being like, yeah, this will work for like a game.

02:16:55.060 --> 02:16:56.500
And then what it turns into is, oh,

02:16:56.500 --> 02:16:59.460
Smaas has 10 seconds midair to go and double reset on us.

02:16:59.460 --> 02:17:02.460
Yeah, that's not a game I necessarily recommend.

02:17:02.460 --> 02:17:04.660
It could work out, but at the end of the day,

02:17:04.660 --> 02:17:07.500
Conqueror's a highly mechanical, highly adaptable team.

02:17:07.500 --> 02:17:10.020
If you try to play one like part of a style,

02:17:10.020 --> 02:17:11.100
they're gonna make changes

02:17:11.100 --> 02:17:13.140
and they are going to punch you for that.

02:17:13.140 --> 02:17:16.140
All right, Mr. Smarty Pass is going to predictions then.

02:17:16.140 --> 02:17:18.220
If you know what's going on in the next matchup,

02:17:18.220 --> 02:17:20.140
you let me know, Pass, what do you have

02:17:20.140 --> 02:17:23.820
going into this contest will it be the Office of Concord or the resilient

02:17:23.820 --> 02:17:24.580
Cumberland?

02:17:24.580 --> 02:17:27.100
Look, I've been very high on Cumberland throughout the season.

02:17:27.100 --> 02:17:29.420
I think they're a very talented team who are going to find themselves somewhere

02:17:29.420 --> 02:17:31.940
in the top half of CRO when all of a sudden done.

02:17:32.660 --> 02:17:34.660
You are playing the number one team in CRL.

02:17:34.780 --> 02:17:37.660
Brezzy has been one of the best additions we have seen this entire semester.

02:17:37.820 --> 02:17:40.020
Concord is going to win end of statements.

02:17:40.820 --> 02:17:42.220
Woo, Pyro.

02:17:42.260 --> 02:17:44.660
I mean, I have to ask you to add a statement to this end of statement.

02:17:44.660 --> 02:17:45.780
Yeah.

02:17:45.780 --> 02:17:46.700
We're going to go with this one.

02:17:46.700 --> 02:17:47.860
I was rather emphatic.

02:17:47.860 --> 02:17:49.460
I don't know if I can, but.

02:17:49.460 --> 02:17:53.540
Let's not have my crazy prediction of Ole Miss and I'm only two for the day.

02:17:53.540 --> 02:17:55.100
So watch out, Concord.

02:17:55.100 --> 02:17:56.260
I'm going with you.

02:17:56.260 --> 02:17:57.540
My prediction is gone.

02:17:58.860 --> 02:18:00.100
Oh, my gosh, you're at the inverse.

02:18:00.100 --> 02:18:01.140
No, but checks out.

02:18:01.140 --> 02:18:02.980
What do you got?

02:18:02.980 --> 02:18:04.740
I'm also going with Conn.

02:18:04.740 --> 02:18:07.780
Concord, I think Cumberland is a phenomenal roster.

02:18:07.780 --> 02:18:10.260
But again, Concord is just that much stronger.

02:18:10.900 --> 02:18:13.660
Chris PC must already a dynamic duo.

02:18:13.740 --> 02:18:15.380
You out on Rezzi.

02:18:15.380 --> 02:18:16.900
That's kind of crazy.

02:18:16.900 --> 02:18:22.020
I'm just saying it's a crazy looking roster from the outside even if you knew nothing about

02:18:22.020 --> 02:18:23.740
CRL itself.

02:18:23.740 --> 02:18:30.060
I hope Polar and Night Knight hear this because the three of you on the desk are saying Concord.

02:18:30.060 --> 02:18:33.860
If I got to do number four, man, Concord is just too strong.

02:18:33.860 --> 02:18:35.460
Give me a reason to stop the bust.

02:18:35.460 --> 02:18:36.460
You just can't.

02:18:36.460 --> 02:18:38.060
They're an absolute jerk or not.

02:18:38.060 --> 02:18:40.660
So it is the one I have going into this one.

02:18:40.660 --> 02:18:45.380
I want anyone who is a Cumbulant supporter in that Twitch chat to come after me to

02:18:45.380 --> 02:18:46.380
get this wrong.

02:18:46.380 --> 02:18:53.060
I have been able to curse desks before, but until I see a dynamic response to a team that

02:18:53.060 --> 02:18:57.900
has so many ways to beat you off the dribble, it may not change.

02:18:57.900 --> 02:18:59.400
What say you Pyro?

02:18:59.400 --> 02:19:03.260
Listen, it's tough to stop momentum like this.

02:19:03.260 --> 02:19:08.420
We came out the gate with this broadcast saying that this league play is top heavy.

02:19:08.420 --> 02:19:12.060
Guess who's on the top making it so heavy on everyone else?

02:19:12.060 --> 02:19:15.500
Concord, along with a couple other teams.

02:19:15.500 --> 02:19:21.820
So Cumberland, if you have what it takes to make your comeback breakthrough moment, this

02:19:21.820 --> 02:19:23.380
might have to be it.

02:19:23.380 --> 02:19:26.100
Matt, who's leading on predictions in the season so far?

02:19:26.100 --> 02:19:30.460
I want to make sure I don't get myself out of the competition because I know last season

02:19:30.460 --> 02:19:33.680
I was kind of one of the things that ended up on top and I really feel like with the

02:19:33.680 --> 02:19:38.620
desk sweeping things, we would always be down to Kers a team, right?

02:19:38.620 --> 02:19:41.500
I'm not honestly quite sure who's in the lead right now, but I can tell you

02:19:41.500 --> 02:19:42.500
this much.

02:19:42.500 --> 02:19:45.640
have absolutely been against us statistically we have lost most of the

02:19:45.640 --> 02:19:48.560
time when we sweep the desk that it that is an actual thing unfortunately at

02:19:48.560 --> 02:19:53.520
this point it's not a guarantee but the point out we have swept the desk once

02:19:53.520 --> 02:19:56.940
they lost we didn't sweep last time thank you Pyro that actually went in our

02:19:56.940 --> 02:20:01.900
favor so if we somehow lose this sweep I think that's just you know forever no

02:20:01.900 --> 02:20:05.280
more sweeps would not allow somebody has to at least just you know they got to

02:20:05.280 --> 02:20:08.680
take one for the team and just decide to predict somebody else well it

02:20:08.680 --> 02:20:10.800
Looks like both teams are ready.

02:20:10.800 --> 02:20:12.960
So let's get right into it.

02:20:12.960 --> 02:20:16.280
Pulling double duty, it's going to be Concord

02:20:16.280 --> 02:20:17.800
taking on Karlin too.

02:20:17.800 --> 02:20:20.320
Teams seemingly headed in different directions.

02:20:20.320 --> 02:20:21.880
Karlin hopes to write the shift

02:20:21.880 --> 02:20:25.760
while Concord looks to continue to be the force of nature.

02:20:25.760 --> 02:20:28.760
It's time to find who can weather the storm.

02:20:28.760 --> 02:20:31.760
This is CRL.

02:20:31.760 --> 02:20:36.760
Concord tower over all with their undefeated record.

02:20:36.760 --> 02:20:39.400
Six wins, zero losses.

02:20:39.400 --> 02:20:40.880
Halfway through the semester,

02:20:40.880 --> 02:20:44.320
Cumberland lied deep in the shadow of Conqueror 2 and 3.

02:20:44.320 --> 02:20:46.880
They need a breakthrough moment

02:20:46.880 --> 02:20:51.400
and nothing would be greater than doing it against the best.

02:20:51.400 --> 02:20:54.360
I mean, the best of the best in EU, no.

02:20:54.360 --> 02:20:56.960
I mean, I don't wanna play over it,

02:20:56.960 --> 02:21:00.200
but keep in mind the other team at the top in Northwood

02:21:00.200 --> 02:21:01.920
also got Perfino.

02:21:01.920 --> 02:21:05.520
I'm just saying the off-season moves

02:21:05.520 --> 02:21:08.760
from the European have been stellar,

02:21:08.760 --> 02:21:11.240
improving that they're at the top.

02:21:11.240 --> 02:21:13.920
Does that mean Cumberland have a chance today?

02:21:13.920 --> 02:21:17.120
Obviously, every team has a chance in CRL,

02:21:17.120 --> 02:21:21.160
but this Cog4 team has just looked so feisty.

02:21:23.440 --> 02:21:25.600
Feisty's a pretty good way to put it.

02:21:25.600 --> 02:21:28.400
Right up the gate, they are swinging

02:21:28.400 --> 02:21:32.880
and Rezzy, wreaking havoc in the quarter 50-50,

02:21:32.880 --> 02:21:35.560
one after the other breaking through the defense.

02:21:36.800 --> 02:21:39.880
It's just so hard to go against a concord team

02:21:39.880 --> 02:21:43.680
that is just very aggressive and very mechanical.

02:21:43.680 --> 02:21:47.960
I cannot say at any point that they will

02:21:47.960 --> 02:21:50.640
manage to mechanic their way out.

02:21:50.640 --> 02:21:53.040
You're gonna need a lot of early challenges,

02:21:53.040 --> 02:21:56.160
a lot of pressure coming through, coming from Cumberland

02:21:56.160 --> 02:21:57.720
in hopes to go against it.

02:21:57.720 --> 02:21:59.720
You can't give them space.

02:21:59.720 --> 02:22:02.480
How did Seamus get back to the ball three times?

02:22:02.480 --> 02:22:05.480
It's still in control is Concord.

02:22:05.480 --> 02:22:10.480
Well, listen, at least Cumberland wasn't all three in one corner of the field that time.

02:22:10.480 --> 02:22:14.480
Okay, the slight improvements is what we're going to focus on for now,

02:22:14.480 --> 02:22:18.480
as Kazi gets a stop to that infield pass looks magnificent to Rezzi.

02:22:18.480 --> 02:22:22.480
Backboard defense set up to send away for Cumberland.

02:22:22.480 --> 02:22:28.480
More problems arise as some boss has the reset saved again there from Polar.

02:22:28.480 --> 02:22:33.680
Yeah, it may only be one save actually counted on the scoreboard with three shots from CMOS

02:22:34.200 --> 02:22:36.800
Already to start off this one couldn't find the

02:22:37.320 --> 02:22:40.680
deflection on the second touch to again be there

02:22:40.680 --> 02:22:47.640
But Concorde back on the offensive zone above here Christie's off the post and out a great backpast again

02:22:47.640 --> 02:22:49.640
Hold pressure of field

02:22:51.040 --> 02:22:57.880
This is tense right you see two players no boost hanging out on the backboard and now the bumps coming in from Rezzi

02:22:57.880 --> 02:23:03.400
that's exactly what you want to do. You have a disruptive defense go in make it tougher that for

02:23:03.400 --> 02:23:08.040
them to hold the line, but they've done more than just that they've clapped back.

02:23:09.400 --> 02:23:14.920
Causie, you have bass mentioned to me obviously someone to look out for another new addition in

02:23:14.920 --> 02:23:20.280
terms of rosters this season polar night you have been together at Cumberland. Berkeley's

02:23:20.280 --> 02:23:27.400
the season or two now and Causie is someone new riding today vacation getting his case of

02:23:27.400 --> 02:23:37.400
So certainly someone that I would like to keep my eye out on if he's able to continue to have success of field for the likes of Cumberland.

02:23:37.400 --> 02:23:43.400
Certainly something to look at. Kazi wants the spotlight right back on that corner shot.

02:23:43.400 --> 02:23:51.400
Demo on night ya, Polar's last back has to win the 1v2. It's a pass up the backboard that doesn't go through with the follow up.

02:23:51.400 --> 02:23:56.400
Those 1v2 situations, not easy to defend. Cumberland happy to survive.

02:23:56.400 --> 02:24:06.400
Drop down here. Crispy can't do much with it as Cumberland's back on the ball. An extra touch by Polar and Naya has boost to work with.

02:24:06.400 --> 02:24:15.400
Seema spoke to the corner, waiting. Kazi back pass towards Polar. Can't get the angle on target as Rezi keeps this one close.

02:24:15.400 --> 02:24:22.400
Wins the 50, pokes it out and clear. Not yet found for the likes of Concord.

02:24:22.400 --> 02:24:26.020
They've been in their half for quite some time still boost in the tank for night

02:24:26.020 --> 02:24:30.400
Yeah, actually has an opportunity since it to himself and couple ends on top

02:24:30.620 --> 02:24:32.780
Yeah, Concord are

02:24:32.780 --> 02:24:39.260
Acting maybe with too much confidence on that play with night yet getting the beats crispy actually elsewhere

02:24:39.300 --> 02:24:43.100
Getting demos upfield setting up for the counter attack that never came

02:24:45.300 --> 02:24:49.940
And now Concord have to wonder what happened to all that pressure they had early on

02:24:49.940 --> 02:24:54.920
shot comes right off kickoff and Cumberland still attacking cause he

02:24:54.920 --> 02:24:59.220
straight down tonight y'all underneath the Cumberland finds a thorn now

02:24:59.220 --> 02:25:06.600
stopping everyone that's what Cumberland loved to do is stun the drop down right

02:25:06.600 --> 02:25:11.200
tonight yeah threading through the defense Concord we're ready for it

02:25:11.200 --> 02:25:17.400
just couldn't get that last second touch incredible effort by Cumberland

02:25:17.400 --> 02:25:25.520
They managed to find one, not two, but a third goal in a matter of seconds after Concord's

02:25:25.520 --> 02:25:27.320
initial pressure.

02:25:27.320 --> 02:25:33.000
They've continued one after another, found success of field, and now all of a sudden

02:25:33.000 --> 02:25:35.680
we're at a 4-1 game in Concord.

02:25:35.680 --> 02:25:38.800
Concord, what's happened?

02:25:38.800 --> 02:25:43.000
You start to ask questions about stability and consistency.

02:25:43.000 --> 02:25:49.040
This is a team that is undefeated right now, if you want to rely on any team to not concede

02:25:49.040 --> 02:25:52.500
in the way that they are now, it should be Concord.

02:25:52.500 --> 02:25:55.000
This is not the game one that they expected.

02:25:55.000 --> 02:25:59.000
Chris, the opportunity.

02:25:59.000 --> 02:26:02.000
Can't do much as Kazi sends it a field night yet.

02:26:02.000 --> 02:26:05.000
Waiting patiently for CMOS's first touch.

02:26:05.000 --> 02:26:09.000
A leave and puller to go through, but can't do much more than that.

02:26:09.000 --> 02:26:11.000
Kazi has boost 50 comes out,

02:26:11.000 --> 02:26:12.740
pull her towards the wall.

02:26:12.740 --> 02:26:13.740
We'll follow up on it,

02:26:13.740 --> 02:26:15.420
sent it towards Kazi.

02:26:15.420 --> 02:26:16.780
And thankfully,

02:26:16.780 --> 02:26:18.260
CMOS came through in the back

02:26:18.260 --> 02:26:20.180
and Rezzi picks it up crispy.

02:26:20.180 --> 02:26:21.260
The shot's slow

02:26:21.260 --> 02:26:22.820
and Kazi gets back to it.

02:26:22.820 --> 02:26:24.100
It just doesn't seem like

02:26:24.100 --> 02:26:26.060
Concord's on the same page.

02:26:27.060 --> 02:26:28.160
I think the China really

02:26:28.160 --> 02:26:30.360
put in in unique ways.

02:26:30.360 --> 02:26:32.500
CMOS getting that midfield

02:26:32.500 --> 02:26:33.540
interception

02:26:33.540 --> 02:26:37.000
is demonstrates the desire

02:26:37.000 --> 02:26:42.280
than need the urgency right now for Concord to do something different to run it out of time.

02:26:44.840 --> 02:26:49.960
Just off that back wall, can't do much more than that, and I get challenging, Rezzy.

02:26:50.600 --> 02:26:54.840
CMOS has a boost to work with, challenged again, drops this one down a crispy block

02:26:54.840 --> 02:26:59.480
away by night. He'll pick a boost as well, no challenge will come through.

02:27:00.440 --> 02:27:05.720
Until then, coming through CMOS just to flex it towards the wall, but Cumberland

02:27:05.720 --> 02:27:12.200
safely built up some pressure and a boost wall, but they're managing to consistently stay on this

02:27:12.200 --> 02:27:20.040
Concorde half. Now for Cumberland, this game won if it turns out to be a victory, which is still

02:27:20.040 --> 02:27:26.600
conditional as that shot from Seamus is threatening. It's a massive achievement. They still got to

02:27:26.600 --> 02:27:32.360
get it though, and they might just single line save for Kazi as they keep the three goal lead.

02:27:32.360 --> 02:27:41.360
Just an impressive performance for Cumberland to hold on to this win.

02:27:41.360 --> 02:27:47.360
Just when it seems like every time Concord has found a way to shoot the ball at a different angle,

02:27:47.360 --> 02:27:52.360
give a different look, they find some way to block it in the final seconds

02:27:52.360 --> 02:28:00.360
and Kazi, a well-deserved MVP in this one, played an impeccable defensive and offensive game.

02:28:00.360 --> 02:28:05.880
He's across the scoreboard on everything and even though Concord still had more shots

02:28:05.880 --> 02:28:13.000
it did not matter because Cumberland had the pressure and just had the ice to make their shots matter.

02:28:13.640 --> 02:28:19.480
I'll tell you what this overarching theme of new thirds on these league play squads has been a

02:28:19.480 --> 02:28:24.040
great theme to follow because for West Virginia and that four player roster it didn't work out

02:28:24.040 --> 02:28:29.080
so well but for Ball State BK couldn't say enough good thing about good things about

02:28:29.080 --> 02:28:34.080
and now you have Kazi topping the charts here for Cumberland these new

02:28:34.080 --> 02:28:39.080
insertions are bringing about the energy that is really what Cumberland is

02:28:39.080 --> 02:28:45.080
exactly looking for. Yeah he did so well throughout the game and you often

02:28:45.080 --> 02:28:50.080
wonder is it going to be a chemistry match match or in fact is your third

02:28:50.080 --> 02:28:54.080
that much better than maybe the two previous players that now you're

02:28:54.080 --> 02:28:58.680
that now you're building your game plan around your new theory.

02:28:58.680 --> 02:29:00.680
You know, there's a lot of different strategies

02:29:00.680 --> 02:29:03.120
to attack adding somebody new.

02:29:03.120 --> 02:29:05.440
In the case of Ball State and Feeds,

02:29:05.440 --> 02:29:09.880
he kind of meshed the gun, oats kind of dynamic duo energy.

02:29:09.880 --> 02:29:11.840
But in the sake for Cumberland,

02:29:11.840 --> 02:29:15.560
Kazi seems to almost be the one that you should work around.

02:29:15.560 --> 02:29:18.240
If he has the hot hand especially in this series

02:29:18.240 --> 02:29:20.760
then you should keep feeding him.

02:29:20.760 --> 02:29:25.740
with the right kind of plays and the spark that Cumberland needed to hand

02:29:25.740 --> 02:29:31.320
Concord their fifth game lost over the season. We've had a mind six matches from

02:29:31.320 --> 02:29:37.160
Concord only four losses going into this. Now number five is there. That's why I was

02:29:37.160 --> 02:29:41.280
saying it's such a big achievement here for Cumberland but maybe Concord have to

02:29:41.280 --> 02:29:45.240
choose their achievements a little bit smaller because they haven't conceded

02:29:45.240 --> 02:29:48.360
off the kickoff and that's a good sign.

02:29:48.360 --> 02:29:51.040
Crispy able to get through in time

02:29:51.040 --> 02:29:52.320
doesn't find another touches.

02:29:52.320 --> 02:29:55.040
Rezzi's up, Seamus on the drop down,

02:29:55.040 --> 02:29:56.120
able to find it first.

02:29:56.120 --> 02:29:58.480
Dunkscazzi as well and this one just

02:29:58.480 --> 02:30:00.280
deflects off that back wall.

02:30:00.280 --> 02:30:03.040
Now still no clear found for Cumberland.

02:30:03.040 --> 02:30:06.200
Great 50 here as Rezzi collects off the side wall.

02:30:06.200 --> 02:30:08.920
So little potential has to flip off the ceiling,

02:30:08.920 --> 02:30:11.760
has some boost to work with and can't get the 51.

02:30:11.760 --> 02:30:13.920
Crispy now looking for a nasty angle

02:30:13.920 --> 02:30:15.960
but couldn't do so as well.

02:30:15.960 --> 02:30:20.000
And now Concord will have to retreat after that effort.

02:30:20.000 --> 02:30:21.920
Well, there was a counterattack brewing,

02:30:21.920 --> 02:30:24.760
but Concord took care of that with a demolition.

02:30:24.760 --> 02:30:26.080
When they were down four to one,

02:30:26.080 --> 02:30:28.120
they were up in demos last game.

02:30:28.120 --> 02:30:30.440
Six to one was the counter.

02:30:30.440 --> 02:30:32.960
Not afraid to pull out the ferocity,

02:30:32.960 --> 02:30:36.480
but will it convert you in on the scoreboard?

02:30:36.480 --> 02:30:37.960
That's the question for them right now

02:30:37.960 --> 02:30:41.000
as Kazi takes away yet another possession for Concord.

02:30:41.000 --> 02:30:48.000
Brazine, great pass over to Crispy Crispy. Back board will be denied by Polar.

02:30:48.000 --> 02:30:53.000
Brazine up again, can't do much more than send this over to Seamots who works the corner.

02:30:53.000 --> 02:30:59.000
And this one again deflected away and out by Naya and pushed that much further up by Polar.

02:30:59.000 --> 02:31:07.000
But quick deflection back sends it towards Midfield. A double commit by Kong Ford and they're just not on the same page.

02:31:07.000 --> 02:31:09.800
I like to see the brawl in the midfield nonetheless.

02:31:09.800 --> 02:31:12.280
Even if that chemistry doesn't come out for this team,

02:31:12.280 --> 02:31:14.440
hold on to demos one bump.

02:31:14.440 --> 02:31:16.400
I don't think there's anyone left in the goal line

02:31:16.400 --> 02:31:18.400
to save that shot.

02:31:18.400 --> 02:31:21.040
Cumberland finding something out of nothing.

02:31:21.040 --> 02:31:25.000
Not much boost there, but a bump will do the job as well

02:31:25.000 --> 02:31:27.600
as a demo to open up the playing field.

02:31:27.600 --> 02:31:30.080
And Kazi comes through again.

02:31:30.080 --> 02:31:33.520
Right-place, right-con, correct positioning.

02:31:33.520 --> 02:31:36.320
Manages to find another goal for Cumberland.

02:31:36.320 --> 02:31:41.320
Concord, I can't imagine the frustration right now, but they just can't find success upfield.

02:31:41.320 --> 02:31:51.320
They're so often in the high air, finding off the ceiling, getting those flipperies that's trying to be a mech, but none of it's been too successful.

02:31:51.320 --> 02:31:54.320
Well, you can't really be mechanical if you're not on the field.

02:31:54.320 --> 02:32:01.320
That double demo to bomb combination was the knockout blow that is going to have to wake up Concord.

02:32:01.320 --> 02:32:08.480
Otherwise either wake up call will have to come next game right now Cumberland with the lead looking to extend ceiling play

02:32:08.720 --> 02:32:12.160
I'm night. Yeah, she's out to a touch from Kazi night

02:32:12.160 --> 02:32:17.320
Yeah, reaching this cautiously allowing crispy to move up that sideline can flick but puller

02:32:17.760 --> 02:32:20.760
We get one touch across the width of the field Kazi

02:32:21.320 --> 02:32:28.320
Going this one from the CMOS put back into the corners Cumberland continue to look comfortable in this game even on defense

02:32:28.320 --> 02:32:36.240
Not on the same page again, that back pass just wasn't where it was needed to be.

02:32:36.240 --> 02:32:38.720
So now this wall goes back towards Cumberland.

02:32:38.720 --> 02:32:42.680
Please briefly pull around the 50, but Rezzy has boost.

02:32:42.680 --> 02:32:46.260
We'll take his time from his own back wall.

02:32:46.260 --> 02:32:51.320
This one goes towards the other wall where he still maintains control over the crispy

02:32:51.320 --> 02:32:53.440
shot denied by Knight.

02:32:53.440 --> 02:32:56.440
You're well read throughout the entire possession.

02:32:56.440 --> 02:33:00.020
well read indeed that's something we haven't mentioned enough right now about

02:33:00.020 --> 02:33:04.380
Cumberland is their vision on defense Conquered continue to go for these

02:33:04.380 --> 02:33:08.840
infield passes yet they've been intercepted most of the time that one

02:33:08.840 --> 02:33:12.680
they didn't have time to cut off the passing lane but they had this shot red

02:33:12.680 --> 02:33:20.260
that vision is giving dividends to the team. Seymour sidewall posse there first

02:33:20.260 --> 02:33:24.560
but Krispy's in midfield has boost. Guess the touch up the ceiling no

02:33:24.560 --> 02:33:32.040
No recent here just going for the 50 and Seamoss with the second effort for Concord to tie.

02:33:32.040 --> 02:33:33.680
Get on pushing.

02:33:33.680 --> 02:33:36.480
Finally they could break through.

02:33:36.480 --> 02:33:44.560
Crispy left that one as bait to take on the 50-50 to lead it right down for Seamoss.

02:33:44.560 --> 02:33:49.600
So many opportunities needed for Concord in order to get their first goal.

02:33:49.600 --> 02:33:54.880
is their ninth shot recorded in the scoreboard and only one goal to show for

02:33:54.880 --> 02:33:59.720
it. They try and they try as they might, but it just seems like Cumberland has the

02:33:59.720 --> 02:34:04.320
answers of Field Rezzy saving at the last second. Another shot here and

02:34:04.320 --> 02:34:08.680
Crispy's able to send it away, but Kazi has boost in the tank and he's

02:34:08.680 --> 02:34:13.480
looked ferocious. Great fifties by Rezzy will keep this one neutral and

02:34:13.480 --> 02:34:19.760
And for now, we'll stay in midfield with just some challenges,

02:34:19.760 --> 02:34:22.760
and no one in clear possession just yet.

02:34:22.760 --> 02:34:25.520
Tell you what, that midfield is looking a little scary.

02:34:25.520 --> 02:34:27.960
Nightyale was trying to bump Crispy off of that play

02:34:27.960 --> 02:34:30.800
as a third man, and here comes the demo from Kazi.

02:34:30.800 --> 02:34:33.880
There is no safe place on this field right now.

02:34:33.880 --> 02:34:36.760
And that's right after I got them talking about Concord

02:34:36.760 --> 02:34:39.080
being the heavy demoers in this game.

02:34:39.080 --> 02:34:41.960
It has been Cumberland as they

02:34:41.960 --> 02:34:47.000
have another demolition on the tally but not the ball that's a pass to Seamus.

02:34:47.000 --> 02:34:51.400
We will end up missing the shot as we trail closer to an overtime.

02:34:53.240 --> 02:34:57.800
Just over 10 seconds left on the clock. This one will be on the Cumberland half

02:34:57.800 --> 02:35:02.280
because he has a boost to work with. He will start a dribble instead of dribbling,

02:35:02.280 --> 02:35:05.320
sending a quick pass. Seamus was a ready for him.

02:35:05.320 --> 02:35:08.120
Polar scores with two seconds remaining.

02:35:08.120 --> 02:35:17.680
I told you that midfield was looking scary and how about a hot shot from Polar to cement that

02:35:18.640 --> 02:35:24.560
Win that lead. I should say a kickoff or Concord still lies here

02:35:24.560 --> 02:35:27.800
And that's a ball still in flight

02:35:28.600 --> 02:35:32.920
Cement to the hits the ground or goes in a net crispy to keep it alive

02:35:32.920 --> 02:35:34.160
That's a hard touch night.

02:35:34.160 --> 02:35:38.560
Yes, searches for the ground and finds it along with their second win.

02:35:40.040 --> 02:35:44.040
Cumberland take game two as well.

02:35:44.280 --> 02:35:48.520
And we have an upset alert currently in the making.

02:35:48.680 --> 02:35:51.720
Cumberland 10 total saves.

02:35:52.000 --> 02:35:55.600
They managed to hold the line when it mattered most.

02:35:55.960 --> 02:36:00.280
And at the end of the day, they found success upfield in different ways.

02:36:00.280 --> 02:36:03.580
passing just quick one, two touches,

02:36:03.580 --> 02:36:06.840
and that's all they needed for both of their goals.

02:36:06.840 --> 02:36:09.960
What's outrageous about those 10 saves from Cumberland

02:36:09.960 --> 02:36:12.680
is it wasn't until nine saves

02:36:12.680 --> 02:36:14.840
that Concord finally scored their first goal.

02:36:14.840 --> 02:36:17.920
So if any team was told, hey,

02:36:17.920 --> 02:36:21.000
you have to wait until the other team makes nine saves

02:36:21.000 --> 02:36:23.340
for you to put in a single goal

02:36:23.340 --> 02:36:25.920
that would be endlessly frustrating.

02:36:25.920 --> 02:36:28.720
Concord need to find a way to be more efficient

02:36:28.720 --> 02:36:31.540
on offense, maybe that's making the passing plays

02:36:31.540 --> 02:36:35.040
a little less telegraphed and a little harder on the shots,

02:36:35.040 --> 02:36:38.600
or it's about turning those demos into the right time

02:36:38.600 --> 02:36:41.120
to remove those all-star defenders.

02:36:42.480 --> 02:36:45.640
Yeah, it's certainly a peculiar matchup

02:36:45.640 --> 02:36:49.240
in regards to how this is breaking down.

02:36:49.240 --> 02:36:51.400
Concord, I'm sure not used to this.

02:36:51.400 --> 02:36:54.560
Of course, this would be their first series loss

02:36:54.560 --> 02:36:57.720
if Cumberland's able to take this in three.

02:36:57.720 --> 02:37:00.980
They haven't found their success at field that they're used to.

02:37:00.980 --> 02:37:03.680
They're now needing to make adjustments.

02:37:03.680 --> 02:37:05.940
They're having to find ways to score.

02:37:07.220 --> 02:37:10.240
It's just, it's a very difficult situation.

02:37:10.240 --> 02:37:13.060
And now Cumberland has just been consistent

02:37:13.060 --> 02:37:14.480
throughout the series,

02:37:14.480 --> 02:37:17.080
that they are not giving Concord the success

02:37:17.080 --> 02:37:18.680
that they're looking for.

02:37:20.680 --> 02:37:22.920
And yeah, Cumberland proving that.

02:37:22.920 --> 02:37:27.560
Oh, it doesn't matter how long your success has lasted.

02:37:27.720 --> 02:37:34.380
to break it any second here in the 10th year anniversary field of the DMH 11

02:37:34.380 --> 02:37:37.980
years now reminds me of how I started the game 10 years ago and that makes me

02:37:37.980 --> 02:37:41.380
feel old chicks though so I'm done talking about it.

02:37:41.380 --> 02:37:46.900
Well second shot off the post for Concord and that's getting a little bit

02:37:46.900 --> 02:37:53.460
old too. Concord just can't seem to be as accurate as needed today they're so

02:37:53.460 --> 02:37:58.180
close shot after shot after shot opportunity but that does not get you

02:37:58.180 --> 02:38:03.860
far if it doesn't get in the back of the net. Rezzi in a one-on-one opportunity

02:38:03.860 --> 02:38:08.900
50 comes through but doesn't do more than that. Another touch just to be

02:38:08.900 --> 02:38:13.580
threatening because he's still in control. Polar has boost and this will be a

02:38:13.580 --> 02:38:17.660
counterattack for Cumberland well read by Rezzi.

02:38:17.660 --> 02:38:19.660
I just got that touch from the corner.

02:38:19.660 --> 02:38:24.180
nearly had the dunk on Nitya, but the counter-attack has begun.

02:38:24.180 --> 02:38:27.700
Reed Seamus off the backboard, and those counter-attacks

02:38:27.700 --> 02:38:28.460
looked scary.

02:38:28.460 --> 02:38:30.900
The containment has been solid from both teams.

02:38:30.900 --> 02:38:31.460
We're looking to do it.

02:38:31.460 --> 02:38:32.540
It's Kazi Nitya.

02:38:32.540 --> 02:38:34.100
Almost a shot there.

02:38:34.100 --> 02:38:36.060
Seamus breaks through, Polar Pass of the backboard.

02:38:36.060 --> 02:38:37.620
Nitya got the bump.

02:38:37.620 --> 02:38:39.460
And through all that contesting,

02:38:39.460 --> 02:38:43.820
Concord still stand formidable save after save,

02:38:43.820 --> 02:38:47.380
and whiff after whiff.

02:38:47.380 --> 02:38:50.700
I'm gonna admit though, what I'm loving about Cumberland's touches

02:38:50.700 --> 02:38:54.560
is they're always giving opportunity for follow-up.

02:38:54.560 --> 02:38:58.700
Each and time they get one touch, there's a second, there's a third.

02:38:58.700 --> 02:39:03.340
In this case, it's a touch into a demo for the follow-up opportunity.

02:39:03.340 --> 02:39:06.260
You get multiple efforts upfield at a time,

02:39:06.260 --> 02:39:09.300
and Cumberland now makes that one matter yet again.

02:39:10.600 --> 02:39:15.140
Talk about the struggle of Concord to really score goals in this series.

02:39:15.140 --> 02:39:19.780
It's not a good sign that they're trailing early.

02:39:19.780 --> 02:39:22.580
Humberland, the add to this leap,

02:39:22.580 --> 02:39:25.940
but they've got to get past Krispyverse on the reset mob.

02:39:25.940 --> 02:39:27.060
No follow-up.

02:39:27.060 --> 02:39:29.700
And so you've mentioned how this Concord team just

02:39:29.700 --> 02:39:31.380
doesn't seem to be on the right page.

02:39:31.380 --> 02:39:34.340
Opportunities abound, but haven't been able to leverage that.

02:39:36.100 --> 02:39:41.060
Yeah, it just seems like even though the shots are there

02:39:41.060 --> 02:39:43.620
and the offensive pressure is there,

02:39:43.620 --> 02:39:46.020
They're not getting that final swing.

02:39:46.020 --> 02:39:48.780
I think it's been, again, nothing on the same page

02:39:48.780 --> 02:39:50.660
with one another, or there's simply

02:39:50.660 --> 02:39:54.140
been way too many whiffs, misses, not as good touch as needed.

02:39:54.140 --> 02:39:57.380
Finally, the connection is there from Crispy and Seamus.

02:39:57.380 --> 02:40:00.220
And just like that, we tie ourselves up.

02:40:00.220 --> 02:40:01.580
They can always rely on those two

02:40:01.580 --> 02:40:04.060
to find some way to the net.

02:40:04.060 --> 02:40:06.940
But that one was a little more special than the others,

02:40:06.940 --> 02:40:07.540
it feels.

02:40:07.540 --> 02:40:10.340
They've been going for those passing plays,

02:40:10.340 --> 02:40:13.580
but the give and go, that'll get them almost every time.

02:40:13.580 --> 02:40:18.580
opportunity maybe here again

02:40:18.580 --> 02:40:25.580
for either team who ever gets control after the initial 50s but that touch doesn't go exactly where it wanted to.

02:40:25.580 --> 02:40:33.580
CMOS up to Crispy because he's there's first and no one finds the connection going I think for the redirect of the other.

02:40:33.580 --> 02:40:39.580
This one over to CMOS never gets defended and it's an open opportunity for him.

02:40:39.580 --> 02:40:44.220
for him gotta be a replay jack here who was sleeping on the wheel

02:40:44.220 --> 02:40:47.900
polar just didn't reach that ball night yet full boost on the

02:40:47.900 --> 02:40:51.660
backboard expecting a high play ever went there gonna reach the

02:40:51.660 --> 02:40:58.580
back corner aimed for Concord as they take the lead back again

02:40:58.580 --> 02:41:03.460
as a ruzzy with control quick shot night yes save it and then

02:41:03.460 --> 02:41:06.500
got demoed by CMOS literally within mere seconds of one

02:41:06.500 --> 02:41:13.940
another this touch though almost ends up being in control for Cumberland but again sent out and away

02:41:14.820 --> 02:41:20.420
Polar having to defend gets bumped by Seamoss again and cause he comes in just in time

02:41:20.420 --> 02:41:25.780
Knight and now one on one with Rezzi will demo him looking for more bumps this one over to Polar

02:41:25.780 --> 02:41:32.260
and again another missed connection we are a near pixels away from some of these touches

02:41:32.260 --> 02:41:34.260
taking very different turns.

02:41:34.260 --> 02:41:36.500
After the Concorde, we're playing for the dunk there,

02:41:36.500 --> 02:41:39.860
but no dunk needed if there's no contact.

02:41:39.860 --> 02:41:43.460
Avery said touch there, the pick up from Polar.

02:41:43.460 --> 02:41:45.900
Passier from Kazi is taken away.

02:41:45.900 --> 02:41:48.140
And these are really important stops from Concorde

02:41:48.140 --> 02:41:52.180
because when Cumberland get cooking,

02:41:52.180 --> 02:41:55.140
they've often finished it off with a goal.

02:41:55.140 --> 02:41:58.700
We're seeing a very different tempo in this game number three

02:41:58.700 --> 02:42:01.400
and it's characterized by these concord stops.

02:42:03.000 --> 02:42:06.760
Back wall here sent away, Seymas is there first.

02:42:07.840 --> 02:42:10.680
Trying to find yet another touch, but can't do so.

02:42:10.680 --> 02:42:12.960
Polar not much boost in the tank.

02:42:12.960 --> 02:42:15.160
Just trying to buy time, get a 50 through.

02:42:15.160 --> 02:42:19.760
He rolls this one over to Khazi, takes it towards the skies.

02:42:19.760 --> 02:42:21.360
Good read here by Polar.

02:42:21.360 --> 02:42:22.960
Almost put a shot on Park.

02:42:22.960 --> 02:42:24.840
It's difficult save for Seymas

02:42:24.840 --> 02:42:29.800
because he's ending up going backwards during that touch.

02:42:29.800 --> 02:42:32.400
And now they'll have to defend against another concord

02:42:32.400 --> 02:42:33.280
opportunity.

02:42:33.280 --> 02:42:37.040
Waterfall, no, but shot potential off the post and out.

02:42:37.040 --> 02:42:38.560
Follow up again.

02:42:38.560 --> 02:42:41.200
And now concord extends their lead.

02:42:41.200 --> 02:42:43.640
This is just a terrifying play to defend.

02:42:43.640 --> 02:42:45.400
You don't know where that waterfall's going.

02:42:45.400 --> 02:42:47.960
Both players try to do it from behind the goal line

02:42:47.960 --> 02:42:50.760
and still can't make contact.

02:42:50.760 --> 02:42:52.360
Concord, quick to the jump.

02:42:54.840 --> 02:43:01.480
Concord definitely looking much faster and much more prepared in this one on the same page

02:43:01.760 --> 02:43:04.120
Seamoss with all three goals

02:43:04.360 --> 02:43:11.280
Cos you though will find one for Cumberland and now only a one goal difference in 27 seconds kickoff shamanigan

02:43:11.280 --> 02:43:13.280
Tapping yet again. Oh

02:43:14.040 --> 02:43:17.040
Concord don't let this one slip

02:43:17.040 --> 02:43:23.240
We've seen Cumberland gather momentum and score in tropes and one of them was a kickoff goal

02:43:23.240 --> 02:43:27.240
We've got to pay attention to this faceoff that does go in Cumberland's favor.

02:43:27.240 --> 02:43:33.240
Oh, he aimed for the bump after the first touch to a teammate. It didn't connect.

02:43:33.240 --> 02:43:39.240
They're finding creative ways to try to make this final goal work and seconds to do it.

02:43:39.240 --> 02:43:44.240
Base on the 50, pull her up high, but just control that ball after the dunk.

02:43:44.240 --> 02:43:47.240
That's up the post. Now you have to focus on the save.

02:43:47.240 --> 02:43:50.240
With three seconds now to make for a shot.

02:43:50.240 --> 02:43:54.720
Second touch off the sidewall takes it away from some moss night. Yeah with the pass

02:43:54.720 --> 02:44:01.160
It's nearly in front of the net, but they just can't get the angle to score concord keep this series alive

02:44:02.480 --> 02:44:04.820
I'm very close serious at that

02:44:04.820 --> 02:44:11.640
But it was individual efforts again my CMOS in particular upfield and just cumberland making some mistakes

02:44:11.640 --> 02:44:18.840
We mentioned how individual effort and some small micro mistakes really make things matter and

02:44:18.840 --> 02:44:25.840
and Seymas had one or two shots where I swore no one reflected no one went up for the challenge

02:44:25.840 --> 02:44:28.840
and that gave him the opportunity to score.

02:44:28.840 --> 02:44:33.920
Which felt like a polar opposite, no pun intended to what we've seen in the previous parts of

02:44:33.920 --> 02:44:34.920
the series, right?

02:44:34.920 --> 02:44:40.440
It took nine stops from Cumberland for Concord to score a goal and then look at game three

02:44:40.440 --> 02:44:45.200
and you're right Seymas just kind of dog walked the ball into the net.

02:44:45.200 --> 02:44:47.880
It's not the Cumberland defense we were used to.

02:44:47.880 --> 02:44:56.120
I like their push at the end of this game, but if they want to take down this top Concord team at defense has got to remain top of the line.

02:44:57.840 --> 02:45:10.920
I agree. Concord is, uh, well, I called them spicy and little feisty earlier today to start off in game one, and they will continue to be like that if you can't deny them on the goal line.

02:45:10.920 --> 02:45:13.520
a very interesting turn of events in this series.

02:45:13.520 --> 02:45:15.120
If there is a team to reverse sweep,

02:45:15.120 --> 02:45:16.920
I do think Concord can do it.

02:45:16.920 --> 02:45:20.920
But Cumberland has shown that they can win games against Concord,

02:45:20.920 --> 02:45:22.320
so they need to knuckle down,

02:45:22.320 --> 02:45:24.620
and they can take this series and make the mistakes

02:45:24.620 --> 02:45:27.420
that we saw from them in game three.

02:45:27.420 --> 02:45:29.420
As we get started here on game four,

02:45:29.420 --> 02:45:30.420
I got to say as well,

02:45:30.420 --> 02:45:32.720
Concord had seemed to tie up some loose ends.

02:45:32.720 --> 02:45:35.820
Their passing plays weren't as ferocious as they could be.

02:45:35.820 --> 02:45:38.020
But that giving going game three was perfect.

02:45:38.020 --> 02:45:40.620
And then, again, you see their defense

02:45:40.620 --> 02:45:45.500
just be more formidable, making some reliable stops on the ball.

02:45:45.500 --> 02:45:48.380
It feels like in the ways that they were lacking,

02:45:48.380 --> 02:45:50.460
they have strengthened it up.

02:45:50.460 --> 02:45:54.580
Is this a concord now that Cumberland can still take down?

02:45:54.580 --> 02:45:56.500
I think a lot of this game is going

02:45:56.500 --> 02:45:59.180
to end up being bumps and demos and boost

02:45:59.180 --> 02:46:01.700
steals that we've kind of been noticing.

02:46:01.700 --> 02:46:05.300
At this point, one team is a little bit more successful

02:46:05.300 --> 02:46:09.100
with it, whether or not to relieve pressure or apply.

02:46:09.100 --> 02:46:14.100
That may just be the difference maker in Game 4 to extend or deny this series.

02:46:16.100 --> 02:46:20.800
We'll see. We've seen, I think, Game 4 endings all of the day so far,

02:46:20.800 --> 02:46:24.900
so the Tokyo hasn't looked too good for the trailing team.

02:46:25.900 --> 02:46:27.900
We're looking to change the tune.

02:46:27.900 --> 02:46:28.900
It's polar.

02:46:28.900 --> 02:46:32.800
It's to get back with Krispy's dribble and flig, straight to Resi.

02:46:32.800 --> 02:46:37.100
Nice first touch, waiting in for the pump and the pop over the rest.

02:46:37.100 --> 02:46:41.920
Surely exactly how they drew it up now when I talked about European mechanics

02:46:41.920 --> 02:46:46.400
This is exactly what I'm thinking about. I'm thinking about the air dribble

02:46:46.560 --> 02:46:55.500
The bump following that dribble the follow-up and a little bit of a doink a wonderful job by Concord to progress the field with such a

02:46:55.500 --> 02:46:57.500
Gresh

02:46:57.540 --> 02:47:02.780
When you see that player go for the air dribble and then leave the ball, you know, there's something

02:47:03.100 --> 02:47:05.100
dastardly on the way

02:47:05.100 --> 02:47:08.740
So, certainly I would characterize that play from Concord.

02:47:08.740 --> 02:47:11.540
They're getting a little more bump-heavy as you mentioned.

02:47:11.540 --> 02:47:15.100
Jakes up, Polar, that shot, not gonna go straight to Seamus,

02:47:15.100 --> 02:47:17.100
looking for a teammate in Rezzi.

02:47:17.100 --> 02:47:19.980
He's got a backtrack to center it again.

02:47:19.980 --> 02:47:24.020
Andrew Spahl off the side wall does go contained by Concord

02:47:24.020 --> 02:47:26.980
as Cumberland looks to pre-game.

02:47:26.980 --> 02:47:30.180
Polar over to Neyja doesn't get the initial touch,

02:47:30.180 --> 02:47:32.460
it doesn't bounce off the back wall either.

02:47:32.460 --> 02:47:36.500
Seymas with that demo is now Concorde progresses the field.

02:47:36.500 --> 02:47:38.380
Kazi, a good read.

02:47:38.380 --> 02:47:40.700
We haven't heard his name in quite some time,

02:47:40.700 --> 02:47:44.020
hasn't had that same impact as the earlier series.

02:47:44.020 --> 02:47:45.340
But night get there on the 50.

02:47:45.340 --> 02:47:47.060
This one sent towards Menfield.

02:47:47.060 --> 02:47:50.900
Polar gets called off as Kazi just sends it to the corner

02:47:50.900 --> 02:47:53.020
and the 50 will relieve some pressure

02:47:53.020 --> 02:47:56.620
and send it up field for Cumberland.

02:47:56.620 --> 02:47:59.580
Concorde really high up those loose ends,

02:47:59.580 --> 02:48:02.100
as we mentioned, and needing to do so.

02:48:02.100 --> 02:48:04.260
It's a double header for them today.

02:48:04.260 --> 02:48:06.100
We heard from all states double header.

02:48:06.100 --> 02:48:07.460
Their coach talking about,

02:48:07.460 --> 02:48:09.900
hey, it was gonna be an 0 and 2 or a 2 and 0.

02:48:09.900 --> 02:48:11.820
You know, it's gonna go our way or not.

02:48:11.820 --> 02:48:14.380
And for Concord, it's uncertain

02:48:14.380 --> 02:48:17.420
whether it's going to be their day or not.

02:48:17.420 --> 02:48:19.700
They were, it certainly was supposed to be.

02:48:19.700 --> 02:48:21.460
They've got the one goal lead now

02:48:21.460 --> 02:48:23.100
and it's just turned to two.

02:48:24.100 --> 02:48:27.420
The patients needed on the goal line here.

02:48:27.420 --> 02:48:31.060
But Kazi and Naito leaves it a little bit too early

02:48:31.060 --> 02:48:32.860
when Polar is going for it.

02:48:32.860 --> 02:48:34.760
And that ball slowly rolls on in

02:48:34.760 --> 02:48:37.460
because there's nobody left in third-man position.

02:48:38.820 --> 02:48:41.700
You can break down there from the Concord offense

02:48:41.700 --> 02:48:42.860
against the defense.

02:48:42.860 --> 02:48:47.220
A different kickoff there as they leave it for the second man,

02:48:47.220 --> 02:48:49.660
but it's open things up for Seamus off the backboard.

02:48:49.660 --> 02:48:51.300
Can't get that second touch.

02:48:51.300 --> 02:48:52.940
He's still fighting for the ball

02:48:52.940 --> 02:48:55.820
and out of the gauntlet comes Crispy with the shot.

02:48:55.820 --> 02:48:57.220
Nearly the bump.

02:48:57.220 --> 02:48:59.700
We're doing a good job of maintaining this possession

02:48:59.700 --> 02:49:04.260
and making things a little dodgy here for Cumberland.

02:49:04.260 --> 02:49:06.580
Crispy just playing time.

02:49:06.580 --> 02:49:10.260
Seymas to follow through, has that boost to work with,

02:49:10.260 --> 02:49:12.980
and it's poked away by Kazi, who has buffed a little bit,

02:49:12.980 --> 02:49:15.900
but does send that ball up, trying to be a blocker

02:49:15.900 --> 02:49:17.020
as this one's sent down.

02:49:17.020 --> 02:49:19.420
Puller over to Nitya, shot comes through,

02:49:19.420 --> 02:49:23.100
four posts, and it ends up being saved by Seymas.

02:49:23.100 --> 02:49:25.980
On the near final seconds, another bump here,

02:49:25.980 --> 02:49:27.740
but this one gets sent back out.

02:49:27.740 --> 02:49:33.660
night yet, well read and dumped away by Polar who sent it to Kazi who now 1v1's tries to

02:49:33.660 --> 02:49:39.040
get the 50, the counter attack potential there but still not executed.

02:49:39.040 --> 02:49:44.260
So we haven't talked much about Kazi, well there I was ready to shout his name as the

02:49:44.260 --> 02:49:51.620
solo play of faking the shot and going for the 50 seemed to be good, just wasn't executed

02:49:51.620 --> 02:49:55.540
as cleanly as it was needed but this is another counter attack chance, a redemption

02:49:55.540 --> 02:49:58.840
moment for Kazi and he lands it.

02:49:58.840 --> 02:50:01.660
Yeah, perfectly executed, knows the vision,

02:50:01.660 --> 02:50:03.580
undersends the attacks with this angle,

02:50:03.580 --> 02:50:05.140
that there's nobody back.

02:50:05.140 --> 02:50:08.340
With the May 20 left, Cumberland still has time

02:50:08.340 --> 02:50:10.060
to mount the comeback.

02:50:10.060 --> 02:50:11.940
Concord doing much better though,

02:50:11.940 --> 02:50:15.420
believe that managing their offensive pressure

02:50:15.420 --> 02:50:17.940
and they still need to be careful to not overextend

02:50:17.940 --> 02:50:18.940
just like that one.

02:50:20.220 --> 02:50:22.620
Well, that's an important play for Cumberland

02:50:22.620 --> 02:50:25.860
just because they're calling the shots of Concord.

02:50:25.860 --> 02:50:28.580
You know, it was Crispy going for that flip reset play

02:50:28.580 --> 02:50:30.460
that some players might hesitate with.

02:50:30.460 --> 02:50:34.260
But Kazi said, I'm going to take this away and score instead.

02:50:34.260 --> 02:50:38.140
She says, can they do that with one and a left?

02:50:38.140 --> 02:50:42.140
Now you're just to clear this one out, popped up,

02:50:42.140 --> 02:50:44.980
CMOS, Polar getting bumped, but still manages

02:50:44.980 --> 02:50:46.140
to get a touch and min.

02:50:46.140 --> 02:50:48.540
What a clear at that as well.

02:50:48.540 --> 02:50:49.980
Doesn't have much boost in the tank,

02:50:49.980 --> 02:50:51.780
but quickly challenges Crispy.

02:50:51.780 --> 02:50:58.300
Kazi up on this one to send towards the back while no follow-up touch just trying to bump at the goal line in the demo

02:50:58.300 --> 02:51:01.980
I believe the spawn will not occur in time

02:51:03.340 --> 02:51:05.540
Unfortunately, Rezzy gets one in the counter attack

02:51:06.060 --> 02:51:10.020
Well, they really felt like an all-or-nothing play as you see

02:51:10.500 --> 02:51:16.700
Everyone from Cumberland forward because he's on no boost trying to get that roadblock play on the backboard

02:51:16.700 --> 02:51:21.460
There's no one back especially with that demo as Concord looked to take it off

02:51:21.780 --> 02:51:30.820
time is ticking for Cumberland before this goes to potential game five reverse sweep territory

02:51:31.620 --> 02:51:35.460
Naia with some pressure and a bump forward of the back walking

02:51:35.460 --> 02:51:42.500
Cossie gets the angle no denied by Seamus was definitely come alive in the back half of this

02:51:42.500 --> 02:51:48.260
series Rezy again on the turn gets the touch off the ceiling a great touch by Naia but

02:51:48.260 --> 02:51:53.060
saves will not win them any more five seconds left on the clock and I think

02:51:53.060 --> 02:51:56.660
time has just run out for Cumberland just like that.

02:51:56.660 --> 02:52:01.620
Resi scores one more and we find ourselves in Game 5

02:52:01.620 --> 02:52:05.860
territory. Why not? Listen,

02:52:05.860 --> 02:52:10.740
Tokyo it's been the end for every series I believe today but it won't be the

02:52:10.740 --> 02:52:16.500
end for this one. Concord on the reverse sweet trajectory and

02:52:16.500 --> 02:52:22.100
I feel like the analyst take here is that if Cumberland were going to win the series, it had to have been a game three.

02:52:23.020 --> 02:52:33.500
I would have to agree with you when they have that much momentum going into a series against a team that is again undefeated up until this current moment.

02:52:33.860 --> 02:52:39.660
They have to do it quickly and swiftly and this series has not been quick or swift in that matter.

02:52:39.660 --> 02:52:43.240
Now going to game five concord have found success of field

02:52:43.380 --> 02:52:50.300
They're figuring out how to shoot how to be successful shooting how to amp up that pressure in terms of bumps and demos

02:52:50.300 --> 02:52:56.720
This game has screamed bumps and demos to allow for opportunities and Cumberland just can't match

02:52:56.900 --> 02:52:59.860
The sort of energy that concord is now bringing to the table

02:53:01.340 --> 02:53:06.900
That's funny because I think bass mentioned this before the match began and it was that okay

02:53:06.900 --> 02:53:12.400
even if you've figured out a way to best Concord, they will adapt. They will absolutely

02:53:12.400 --> 02:53:17.880
find a way to get through. That adaptation has occurred, but who's to say that Cumberland

02:53:17.880 --> 02:53:22.540
can't do the same, right? Concord, they tied up the loose ends and look like the team

02:53:22.540 --> 02:53:28.280
that you know them to be. But for Cumberland, look at how they've succeeded in the previous

02:53:28.280 --> 02:53:33.160
game. It was cozy calling the shot of Crispy, taking it away and scoring right off the

02:53:33.160 --> 02:53:39.560
that they have to act with confidence with precision to best Concorde on last

02:53:39.560 --> 02:53:46.280
time. Well game five there's nothing more that you could ask for between these

02:53:46.280 --> 02:53:52.760
two off the post and already couldn't find the perfect power to match and

02:53:52.760 --> 02:53:57.520
Concorde could have been on the board first at the end of the day do not

02:53:57.520 --> 02:54:02.440
manage to get that here game five we'll see some shenanigans I already am

02:54:02.440 --> 02:54:04.840
I'm expecting it.

02:54:04.840 --> 02:54:07.040
Which we'll have to see here on Champions Field.

02:54:07.040 --> 02:54:08.200
Tall touch here.

02:54:08.200 --> 02:54:12.240
Picked up by Rezzy and unbelievably not scored.

02:54:12.240 --> 02:54:14.320
Night, yeah.

02:54:14.320 --> 02:54:18.560
Somehow stops that one and we were made scoreless.

02:54:18.560 --> 02:54:20.360
Polar just working the fifties.

02:54:20.360 --> 02:54:22.080
Night, you're doing the same.

02:54:22.080 --> 02:54:25.840
This one pops up, but Rezzy just too much of a touch.

02:54:25.840 --> 02:54:27.360
Cosy will stay on it.

02:54:27.360 --> 02:54:29.400
Rezzy picks it back up looking for the bump.

02:54:29.400 --> 02:54:31.640
does find the bump of Paula Reeds.

02:54:31.640 --> 02:54:34.920
The bumping gets the save behind his teammate.

02:54:34.920 --> 02:54:37.200
This is what I mean about Shenanigans.

02:54:37.200 --> 02:54:39.000
We're seeing the aggressiveness.

02:54:39.000 --> 02:54:40.560
We're seeing the bumps and demos,

02:54:40.560 --> 02:54:42.880
but now we're seeing teams react

02:54:42.880 --> 02:54:45.040
and figure out ways to get around it.

02:54:46.280 --> 02:54:47.920
There's so much emotion right now

02:54:47.920 --> 02:54:49.960
behind this play style of Cumberland.

02:54:49.960 --> 02:54:53.280
You're looking at a potential historic win

02:54:53.280 --> 02:54:55.320
against Concord.

02:54:55.320 --> 02:55:01.320
a win that nobody expected, a win that would go against the desk sweep.

02:55:01.320 --> 02:55:07.320
They want this win so badly, but it's so clear they're going to have to fight tooth and nail for it.

02:55:07.320 --> 02:55:12.320
Ah, Crispy, and the rest of the team of Concord having tons of pressure.

02:55:12.320 --> 02:55:16.320
Seamus to turn in here, but won't get the second touch.

02:55:16.320 --> 02:55:23.240
Rezzi to take over, now working that side wall almost finds a nasty angle of this one, poked

02:55:23.240 --> 02:55:29.480
back out, and Kazi with boost, flip reset here, gets an interesting touch, but Seamos will

02:55:29.480 --> 02:55:30.560
pick it back up.

02:55:30.560 --> 02:55:35.880
There was more to be desired on that play from Kazi and that is the player I'm looking

02:55:35.880 --> 02:55:38.480
at now to be a difference maker.

02:55:38.480 --> 02:55:43.040
On the redemption play the last game made it count, will he get another chance to

02:55:43.040 --> 02:55:44.560
do that again?

02:55:44.560 --> 02:55:48.000
Maybe, as Cumberland has the ball on enemy territory.

02:55:48.000 --> 02:55:52.160
So you must look for a way out and does get it to the Apgore line.

02:55:52.160 --> 02:55:56.080
50 here, Kazi back to it first though on his own 50.

02:55:56.080 --> 02:55:59.920
Nya sending it to the side while no second touch.

02:55:59.920 --> 02:56:02.800
Papa, Polar towards the corner.

02:56:02.800 --> 02:56:05.520
Kazi looking to pick it up and will do just that.

02:56:05.520 --> 02:56:09.440
Get Demond for his efforts and Crispy now sends it towards the back wall.

02:56:09.440 --> 02:56:12.400
Polar deflection safely into the corner.

02:56:12.400 --> 02:56:15.480
a well thought out touch.

02:56:15.480 --> 02:56:19.720
Fuller avoided the bomb there and stuck with the ball.

02:56:19.720 --> 02:56:23.760
This midfield game is still uncalled for.

02:56:23.760 --> 02:56:26.280
We don't know who's going to take the whole way quite yet.

02:56:26.280 --> 02:56:30.120
That is until Seamus will take it for themselves.

02:56:30.120 --> 02:56:32.960
A lot of testing the waters and finally enough touches

02:56:32.960 --> 02:56:33.840
move on through.

02:56:33.840 --> 02:56:37.080
A backboard touch sneaks its way by and Seamus

02:56:37.080 --> 02:56:39.520
comes through to clean it on up.

02:56:39.520 --> 02:56:41.880
Concord on the board.

02:56:41.880 --> 02:56:46.680
five total shots and opportunity that takes Cumberland not a single shot yet

02:56:46.680 --> 02:56:53.760
registered. Buried two differences between these teams. And now two minutes

02:56:53.760 --> 02:56:58.260
over on the clock. Can Cumberland come back or has Concord just

02:56:58.260 --> 02:57:04.560
leveled up enough in this series? Hold on. It does feel like this games can be

02:57:04.560 --> 02:57:07.640
called in the next minute because the Cumberland they're putting

02:57:07.640 --> 02:57:13.320
everything forward they almost got caught with nobody back incredible save

02:57:13.320 --> 02:57:18.520
going for all or nothing here people to break up that aerial play night yes he's

02:57:18.520 --> 02:57:22.840
cosy on the side cosy picks up with full boosters a bump ahead Seamus gets away

02:57:22.840 --> 02:57:26.960
from it that's the player with all the demos the goal for the team more

02:57:26.960 --> 02:57:32.560
saves coming from Concord and they've got the whole field open wide for the

02:57:32.560 --> 02:57:34.560
Taking

02:57:34.600 --> 02:57:40.040
Going the way I expected Chicks up, but I go not the less you know when he went up for this flick

02:57:40.040 --> 02:57:43.360
I thought it was just gonna go straight into the back of the net

02:57:43.360 --> 02:57:50.200
You know power flick sort of movement and said it's a backboard touch and it ends up going on in none the less

02:57:50.240 --> 02:57:54.280
It's a great counter attack for conchord. They're up to oh

02:57:54.760 --> 02:57:58.360
Cumberland need to find a way to get in this now

02:57:58.360 --> 02:58:07.580
now. I love that play there from night. Yeah, Kazia chance here reset shot again saved by

02:58:07.580 --> 02:58:12.640
crispy on court. They've got the read on Cumberland. It feels like there's no other

02:58:12.640 --> 02:58:19.920
pages left in the handbook to take them by surprise. Maybe Cumberland has one last

02:58:19.920 --> 02:58:30.440
surprise. It just seems like they can't find a way to find pressure. Concord, a third at

02:58:30.440 --> 02:58:37.320
this point. Okay. All right, Seamus. Listen, you were MVP after the game five performance

02:58:37.320 --> 02:58:43.280
that we saw. You didn't have to add that on top. Talk about the cherry there as it

02:58:43.280 --> 02:58:48.240
is a perfect downward pass. We did the third goal of Concord. I had a feeling it

02:58:48.240 --> 02:58:52.840
It would be decided in that next minute as the goals pile on.

02:58:53.780 --> 02:58:57.080
Yearly the answer was constructed from Cumberland,

02:58:57.080 --> 02:58:59.880
but as I said, it seems like just nothing more.

02:59:02.000 --> 02:59:04.160
Cumberland again tried as they would

02:59:04.160 --> 02:59:07.000
gave last pressure attempts,

02:59:07.000 --> 02:59:09.640
but it seems like Concord has their number.

02:59:09.640 --> 02:59:12.760
They figured out what Cumberland was doing

02:59:12.760 --> 02:59:16.000
and now they can't even find a single goal

02:59:16.000 --> 02:59:17.840
to end out this series.

02:59:18.240 --> 02:59:23.840
Well, that hurts.

02:59:23.840 --> 02:59:28.160
What do you do in this situation where Rezi is faking the shot and going for the bump

02:59:28.160 --> 02:59:32.520
and now, oh by the way, if you somehow avoid the bump, you have to save the musty flick

02:59:32.520 --> 02:59:34.020
from Krispy.

02:59:34.020 --> 02:59:35.020
It's done.

02:59:35.020 --> 02:59:36.020
It's over.

02:59:36.020 --> 02:59:37.520
Call it where it's at.

02:59:37.520 --> 02:59:39.520
Concord are remaining on top.

02:59:39.520 --> 02:59:46.800
That was just the statement pieced within itself for the likes of Concord.

02:59:46.800 --> 02:59:53.940
time is certainly up for Cumberland almost had an upset victory in this one

02:59:53.940 --> 03:00:00.860
but still cannot even get one for the road incredible comeback win for Concord

03:00:00.860 --> 03:00:07.140
get the reverse sweep find a way to be successful and they hold on to their

03:00:07.140 --> 03:00:14.420
undefeated league play record stunning upset turns to what could have been

03:00:14.420 --> 03:00:25.420
And for Cumberland they will fall to that two in four record as Concord can't seem to find what it takes to fail 7 and 0.

03:00:25.420 --> 03:00:28.420
And they remain the second undefeated team.

03:00:28.420 --> 03:00:34.420
Chick says they just continue to battle with Northwood for who wants to be the top of the tally.

03:00:34.420 --> 03:00:40.420
Yeah, eventually those two will have to play will have to determine someone at the top of the leaderboard.

03:00:40.420 --> 03:00:47.140
But it is very interesting that we finally see that upper echelon be so undefeated yet again

03:00:47.980 --> 03:00:54.000
And this is what makes teams like concord and that be so difficult because you may think you do

03:00:54.000 --> 03:00:56.000
Oh, you have their number right?

03:00:56.560 --> 03:01:00.400
Kazi's being so mechanical and creating space for the team

03:01:00.640 --> 03:01:08.200
Now you're in the late game was looking exceptional with his playmaking ability, but the adaptations from concord

03:01:08.200 --> 03:01:16.200
their ability to shape up their midfield play to be a little more precise and quick with their passing plays.

03:01:16.200 --> 03:01:20.200
It all turned out to be an unstoppable force.

03:01:20.200 --> 03:01:24.200
And things just didn't go the way for Cumberland in that last one either.

03:01:24.200 --> 03:01:30.200
How many shots went off the post similar to what we saw from Concord earlier in the series?

03:01:30.200 --> 03:01:37.200
And finally, you know, things just broke down and Concord broke through that wall that they had up

03:01:37.200 --> 03:01:39.700
at the beginning of the series.

03:01:39.700 --> 03:01:41.900
Well, congratulations to Concord,

03:01:41.900 --> 03:01:44.700
but the question is, can they do it again?

03:01:44.700 --> 03:01:47.500
They've got a double header as well today.

03:01:47.500 --> 03:01:50.400
We'll see them again right after this break

03:01:50.400 --> 03:01:52.900
up against Fisher College.

03:01:52.900 --> 03:01:54.500
We'll be back with you shortly.

03:02:24.500 --> 03:02:30.000
Take me back when you say we can do this until we're dead

03:02:30.000 --> 03:02:34.500
Just a little bit farther, we're breathing underwater

03:02:34.500 --> 03:02:38.000
I'm keeping your heart beat like a drum

03:02:38.000 --> 03:02:41.000
We can get kids out of the run

03:02:41.000 --> 03:02:45.500
There's nothing better on just like we're young together

03:02:54.500 --> 03:03:09.500
It's one of my conditions in the city right?

03:03:09.500 --> 03:03:12.500
It's not where you want to go.

03:03:12.500 --> 03:03:14.500
You're smart, but you're dangerous.

03:03:14.500 --> 03:03:16.500
And I feel like I have to go.

03:03:16.500 --> 03:03:19.500
I'm believing everything is right in me.

03:03:19.500 --> 03:03:22.500
Spinning you around until you're dizzy.

03:03:22.500 --> 03:03:25.500
Caught up like a pole in a hurricane

03:03:25.500 --> 03:03:27.500
And you were down all day

03:03:27.500 --> 03:03:30.500
Yeah, take me back when you said

03:03:30.500 --> 03:03:33.500
We can do this until we're dead

03:03:33.500 --> 03:03:35.500
Just a little bit farther

03:03:35.500 --> 03:03:38.500
We're breathing underwater

03:03:38.500 --> 03:03:40.500
I'm keeping my heart beat back

03:03:40.500 --> 03:03:44.500
Get drunk, we can make it out of the water

03:03:44.500 --> 03:03:46.500
There's nothing better

03:03:46.500 --> 03:03:49.500
I'm just glad we're young together

03:03:49.500 --> 03:03:54.500
I'm just like we're young together

03:03:54.500 --> 03:04:21.500
Take me out when you die There's nothing better

03:04:21.500 --> 03:04:27.500
And the last thing you do, we do it like this on every end

03:04:27.500 --> 03:04:35.500
And your heart beats like a drum, now go and break it!

03:04:37.500 --> 03:04:43.500
Yeah, take me back when you said we can do this until we're dead

03:04:43.500 --> 03:04:47.500
Just a little bit farther, we're breathing underwater

03:04:47.500 --> 03:04:51.500
I'm keeping your body without control.

03:04:51.500 --> 03:04:54.500
We can be kids out of the run.

03:04:54.500 --> 03:04:56.500
There's nothing better.

03:04:56.500 --> 03:04:58.500
I'm just glad we're young together.

03:05:17.500 --> 03:05:19.500
I

03:07:17.500 --> 03:07:19.500
Yeah

03:07:42.780 --> 03:07:44.780
Fight me

03:10:17.500 --> 03:10:19.500
The first two games we were sleeping, right?

03:10:19.500 --> 03:10:22.060
Yeah, I got some questions about that.

03:10:22.060 --> 03:10:26.740
I mean, first off, I got to ask, you know, what was going on in the first two games?

03:10:26.740 --> 03:10:28.140
What was the mentality like?

03:10:28.140 --> 03:10:30.100
And then I have to kind of ask a follow up.

03:10:30.100 --> 03:10:31.100
Third game comes around.

03:10:31.100 --> 03:10:32.220
You guys start to lock in.

03:10:32.220 --> 03:10:35.340
After that, was there any doubt in your mind that was a reverse sweep?

03:10:35.340 --> 03:10:44.060
No, I think after the first two games, we just like weren't alive.

03:10:44.060 --> 03:10:45.060
It happens.

03:10:45.060 --> 03:10:46.420
It's, you know, it's a long season.

03:10:46.420 --> 03:10:47.420
It's a long day.

03:10:47.420 --> 03:10:51.500
got another one coming up here but so far I would say it's been less growing

03:10:51.500 --> 03:10:55.760
pains maybe than anticipated I know this is your first semester in CRL what's

03:10:55.760 --> 03:10:58.980
it been like getting used to not only being on a team in CRL but being on a

03:10:58.980 --> 03:11:04.060
team with this high expectation former champions at that I mean it's fun for me

03:11:04.060 --> 03:11:09.900
I don't struggle with the expectations at all like like there's only two good

03:11:09.900 --> 03:11:11.100
teams in the league, really.

03:11:11.100 --> 03:11:12.100
So.

03:11:13.700 --> 03:11:16.940
OK, you have to concord and collect it, but confident.

03:11:16.940 --> 03:11:20.820
Yeah, that response from Helix behind you says it all at this point.

03:11:21.140 --> 03:11:22.940
I kind of kind of follows up my

03:11:23.220 --> 03:11:24.620
falls of a question easily.

03:11:24.620 --> 03:11:26.020
Is it concord back on top?

03:11:26.020 --> 03:11:28.700
Because I know you weren't here last semester when the talks were happening,

03:11:28.700 --> 03:11:31.620
but some awesome crispy said, hey, if the internet gets fixed,

03:11:31.940 --> 03:11:33.460
we're winning it all again.

03:11:33.460 --> 03:11:35.740
Is it concord back to number one or concord winning at all?

03:11:36.260 --> 03:11:38.660
I mean, as long as we don't play like we did in the first two games,

03:11:38.660 --> 03:11:42.380
I think we got it.

03:11:42.380 --> 03:11:42.980
You know what?

03:11:42.980 --> 03:11:44.940
I'm not going to take up too much more of your time.

03:11:44.940 --> 03:11:47.300
I feel like we'll probably be speaking to you guys again real soon.

03:11:47.300 --> 03:11:48.740
Reddy, thank you so much for the time here.

03:11:48.740 --> 03:11:49.940
Congratulations again on the win.

03:11:49.940 --> 03:11:52.180
Thank you.

03:11:52.180 --> 03:11:53.980
Oh, my goodness.

03:11:53.980 --> 03:11:56.980
Only about two good teams in the league.

03:11:56.980 --> 03:11:58.300
Yikes.

03:11:58.300 --> 03:11:59.980
Pyro, let me ask you, man.

03:11:59.980 --> 03:12:03.100
If I'm someone watching this, I'm up with the fire in my belly,

03:12:03.100 --> 03:12:04.380
right?

03:12:04.380 --> 03:12:05.900
Oh, I would hope so, right?

03:12:05.900 --> 03:12:09.100
it's like, all right, let me take that smile off of their faces.

03:12:09.100 --> 03:12:14.540
But at the same time, like, do you doubt this Concorde team?

03:12:14.540 --> 03:12:17.300
They said, OK, game two, hey, maybe we should start playing

03:12:17.300 --> 03:12:18.380
Let's Reverse Suite.

03:12:18.380 --> 03:12:21.180
Now, like, I fully believe that.

03:12:21.180 --> 03:12:23.220
I watched that game, I casted that game.

03:12:23.220 --> 03:12:24.660
That is what they did.

03:12:24.660 --> 03:12:27.340
There were a lot of loose ends to tie up.

03:12:27.340 --> 03:12:30.660
They did not look like Concorde in those first two games.

03:12:30.660 --> 03:12:33.220
The back three, absolutely.

03:12:33.220 --> 03:12:34.900
Yeah, that's what I actually want to ask you about,

03:12:34.900 --> 03:12:38.100
So it did seem like Cumberland had a chance,

03:12:38.100 --> 03:12:41.580
and I'm not even sure I'm gonna sell Cumberland short

03:12:41.580 --> 03:12:44.420
because it does seem like Concord wasn't locked in,

03:12:44.420 --> 03:12:46.620
wasn't as close in your perspective

03:12:46.620 --> 03:12:48.620
as it was when you're outside looking in.

03:12:49.580 --> 03:12:53.460
You know, I do think Concord has struggled sometimes

03:12:53.460 --> 03:12:57.340
to take teams seriously off, off rip, you know,

03:12:57.340 --> 03:12:58.900
off game one.

03:12:58.900 --> 03:13:00.860
So they needed a little bit of a wake up call.

03:13:00.860 --> 03:13:08.020
Ultimately, this was Concord's game to win or lose and they decided to win it after that game three point

03:13:08.500 --> 03:13:15.340
They just definitely need to go into a series when you go into any series like this is for any team across CRL

03:13:15.500 --> 03:13:17.500
You should be warmed up

03:13:17.780 --> 03:13:25.340
You should be ready. You should be prepared and you should go into it feeling like that and they just didn't look like that

03:13:25.340 --> 03:13:29.660
I mean, I know the term they use was they were like sleeping. Maybe they didn't warm up

03:13:29.660 --> 03:13:36.140
I don't know what the 30 minutes prior to the series looked like, but certainly 30 minutes into that series

03:13:36.140 --> 03:13:40.180
It finally looked like they were ready to play like we know Concord plays

03:13:41.020 --> 03:13:48.060
The question for you bass did Concord give the the back half of the season messed in the back half of his leg up

03:13:48.060 --> 03:13:54.760
Bit of a sight of their underbelly or Achilles heel the way it took them so long to warm up against a team like cumberland

03:13:54.760 --> 03:14:00.240
If it weren't for the fact that they closed out the series, I'd say there's a level of concern,

03:14:00.240 --> 03:14:02.600
but I think with the confidence in which they did close out that series,

03:14:02.600 --> 03:14:05.320
there really isn't. They've barely dropped any games throughout this semester,

03:14:05.320 --> 03:14:08.880
and the fact is, is that like, yeah, okay, they dropped the first two games, it's not looking pretty.

03:14:08.880 --> 03:14:12.720
Game 3, you can clearly see them lock in, and games 4 and 5 were not close.

03:14:12.720 --> 03:14:17.080
It was very clearly that Conkel were back on top, and I think that's the whole thing, is that like,

03:14:17.080 --> 03:14:22.400
it feels silly to say, but like, legitimately it is, if Conkel or Take It Seriously, they beat anybody.

03:14:22.400 --> 03:14:25.240
If they're kind of, you know, messing about, they could lose to anybody.

03:14:25.240 --> 03:14:29.920
So I fear for that team that they might need to start walking in,

03:14:29.920 --> 03:14:32.960
but when they do, you know, we see how well they can perform.

03:14:32.960 --> 03:14:35.160
If they take it seriously, that's a big F.

03:14:35.160 --> 03:14:39.720
Concord is just one of the two teams that is pulling double duty.

03:14:39.720 --> 03:14:41.840
This second match is right now.

03:14:41.840 --> 03:14:46.480
They're taking on a very game squad in Fisher.

03:14:46.480 --> 03:14:52.000
And, well, us in the production is known that Fisher has had a little bit of a show game.

03:14:52.000 --> 03:14:57.560
When it comes to what the team looks like on the actual pitch, but we do have confirmation here today

03:14:57.560 --> 03:15:02.200
It's going to be the trio of Ivan Royals and Justice taking on of course, Krispy

03:15:02.200 --> 03:15:07.800
Reslimas and Rezzi and Chica. Let me start with you our last matchup of the evening

03:15:07.800 --> 03:15:10.080
What is some overarching thoughts? I jumped out of you here

03:15:10.600 --> 03:15:12.600
You know this Fisher roster

03:15:12.680 --> 03:15:18.760
Should be really good on paper could be really good on paper or now against a warm up concord team

03:15:19.200 --> 03:15:21.200
so for concord

03:15:21.200 --> 03:15:27.760
Doing a job went out the series looking pretty good Fisher. Is this really the main three?

03:15:27.760 --> 03:15:35.480
Are they finally comfortable that on paper? They look really good, but are they just too far gone in?

03:15:36.120 --> 03:15:37.520
this

03:15:37.520 --> 03:15:39.520
You know two to three

03:15:39.960 --> 03:15:45.400
It's a must win for Fisher. It's a much from an upset in order for them to have potential to be at top four

03:15:45.400 --> 03:15:52.640
Yeah, that must win mentality is never good to put that pressure on you especially so relatively early in the season pyro

03:15:52.640 --> 03:15:57.120
You're Fisher right now. You just watch Concord on stream quote-unquote wake up

03:15:57.120 --> 03:16:00.840
Are you a bit more nervous about your position walking over the dovetail today?

03:16:01.400 --> 03:16:05.200
No, I mean listen any nerves from Fisher. I

03:16:05.800 --> 03:16:10.720
Don't even think they're coming from their opponent opponent. Of course. It's Concord. They know what they're up against

03:16:10.720 --> 03:16:13.360
I think it's more internal to the team

03:16:13.360 --> 03:16:19.840
We have Ivan coming in for Adam who has mostly played for Fisher on this three spot and I've it's a really interesting

03:16:20.120 --> 03:16:26.940
Guarantees that fantastic player. I've watched him particularly on the RLCS side of things with SSA

03:16:27.320 --> 03:16:34.560
Fun fact if it wasn't footy sports to represent that region, it would have been Ivan on his Spanish roster with a with Riz

03:16:34.920 --> 03:16:36.920
He has incredible

03:16:36.920 --> 03:16:52.920
uh capability when it comes to performing at the top and I feel like you couple that with Royaleis who was like a match away from representing Sam at this worlds from LCQ with justice this is a wild card scary team.

03:16:53.920 --> 03:17:05.920
You know best thing to step back or you think about teams that are dominate or showed up in CRL a lot of times you get a new heroes coming to the fray but Fisher whatever iteration you like of Fisher always seems to be

03:17:05.920 --> 03:17:09.840
in the conversation. I mean, that must be something for them.

03:17:09.840 --> 03:17:12.520
Bit of a buff to know that whatever happens to them,

03:17:12.520 --> 03:17:15.080
when lose or draw, they find their way in the Seattle

03:17:15.080 --> 03:17:16.560
conversation.

03:17:16.560 --> 03:17:18.600
I think it's very similar to what we were talking about

03:17:18.600 --> 03:17:21.440
with Cumberland before, where very high ceiling,

03:17:21.440 --> 03:17:24.000
somewhat lower floor, but kind of elevated.

03:17:24.000 --> 03:17:25.000
They've got a higher ceiling.

03:17:25.000 --> 03:17:26.560
They've got a higher floor than Cumberland.

03:17:26.560 --> 03:17:29.120
So you never really know where they're going to end up.

03:17:29.120 --> 03:17:30.600
We talked about this coming into the day, though.

03:17:30.600 --> 03:17:32.400
The big problem for fishers isn't necessarily

03:17:32.400 --> 03:17:34.960
that they have this instability of going high, low,

03:17:34.960 --> 03:17:37.880
Ohio, Ohio, it's that they've already taken three losses.

03:17:37.880 --> 03:17:41.760
The beginning of the season for them has looked extraordinarily rough so far,

03:17:41.760 --> 03:17:46.440
with losses to Ball State, losses to I believe Cumberland actually as well here.

03:17:46.440 --> 03:17:51.120
Like it's just not been Fisher's Day so far, or I guess semester so far.

03:17:51.120 --> 03:17:53.760
So I don't really know what to say about Fisher right now.

03:17:53.760 --> 03:17:55.560
Fisher feels like a giant question mark.

03:17:55.560 --> 03:17:58.280
We're talking about, you know, the dark horses of the league here.

03:17:58.280 --> 03:18:02.560
I'd still rather give that to Cumberland because Fisher shouldn't be a dark horse.

03:18:02.560 --> 03:18:04.760
They finished second last semester.

03:18:04.760 --> 03:18:10.280
Shouldn't be a dark coast just to note that thanks so much for production for this tidbit the last three series for Fisher

03:18:10.280 --> 03:18:14.720
It was a 1-3 lost to Boise a 3-0 win SSU and an o3 lost to us

03:18:15.080 --> 03:18:19.560
So just for context there, but we're ready to go for predictions chicks. I'm a sharp with you

03:18:19.560 --> 03:18:25.360
It's Fisher against Concord to also playing double duty will fatigue be a factor here. Do you think now walk with it?

03:18:26.000 --> 03:18:30.200
Not any good rocket player league player knows how to play a five-hour long tournament

03:18:30.200 --> 03:18:35.560
I'm not too worried about the fatigue front and I think the concord looks warmed up. They looked ready

03:18:35.880 --> 03:18:39.040
I'm going with concord. It's really hard to deny

03:18:39.400 --> 03:18:45.120
The confidence and really just the getting into it after you already play series that you win in

03:18:45.120 --> 03:18:50.160
They certainly had a warm-up taking it all the way to five. I do not foresee this one going out long

03:18:51.480 --> 03:18:55.840
Alright pyro you've gone in a different direction this afternoon

03:18:55.840 --> 03:19:00.120
Are we going on your own path as you see the light when it comes to come?

03:19:00.120 --> 03:19:05.080
I think we should all just agree and always pick the same team not give me

03:19:05.080 --> 03:19:11.040
Fisher College okay and I'm putting my faith in Royale's here he has succeeded

03:19:11.040 --> 03:19:15.720
wherever you put him whatever the region whatever the team is he figures

03:19:15.720 --> 03:19:21.440
it out star stunning player can take it to Concord obviously gonna be close

03:19:21.440 --> 03:19:23.440
I'm saying the winning game 5.

03:19:23.440 --> 03:19:25.440
I think Fisher got it.

03:19:25.440 --> 03:19:26.440
Wow.

03:19:26.440 --> 03:19:28.440
Think Fisher got it.

03:19:28.440 --> 03:19:30.440
Bass, you agree?

03:19:30.440 --> 03:19:31.440
No.

03:19:31.440 --> 03:19:32.440
No.

03:19:32.440 --> 03:19:33.440
I know.

03:19:33.440 --> 03:19:34.440
All right.

03:19:34.440 --> 03:19:35.440
There he goes.

03:19:35.440 --> 03:19:38.440
I've been very brutally honest about Fisher this entire semester here.

03:19:38.440 --> 03:19:41.440
I've had a direct call out with Conversations with Orialis,

03:19:41.440 --> 03:19:43.440
with Press Their Coach.

03:19:43.440 --> 03:19:44.440
I have directly said,

03:19:44.440 --> 03:19:47.440
look guys, you're going to keep falling further and further for me

03:19:47.440 --> 03:19:49.440
until you prove me wrong.

03:19:49.440 --> 03:19:53.040
Once you have that big moment of proofing me wrong, cool, I'm back on the train.

03:19:53.040 --> 03:19:54.040
We're hyped.

03:19:54.040 --> 03:19:55.040
They haven't done that.

03:19:55.040 --> 03:19:57.120
We are halfway through the semester.

03:19:57.120 --> 03:19:58.120
They have not done that.

03:19:58.120 --> 03:20:01.440
If they get a win here today, cool.

03:20:01.440 --> 03:20:03.840
Until then, no, I'm picking Concord.

03:20:03.840 --> 03:20:04.840
Wow, wow, wow.

03:20:04.840 --> 03:20:05.840
You know what?

03:20:05.840 --> 03:20:07.640
I would love hearing bass being hyped.

03:20:07.640 --> 03:20:08.640
It doesn't happen often.

03:20:08.640 --> 03:20:09.640
Well, it does, man.

03:20:09.640 --> 03:20:10.640
It's pretty awesome.

03:20:10.640 --> 03:20:12.440
I got to be honest with you.

03:20:12.440 --> 03:20:17.720
I thought about going either way with this, that having Ivan prove this a stronger

03:20:17.720 --> 03:20:23.160
team where it really comes down to respecting space. It should be Fisher, but I gotta go

03:20:23.160 --> 03:20:27.960
and conquer it myself. I mean, look, you've got to tell me you have to give me a reason

03:20:27.960 --> 03:20:32.680
why not to roll with you. You haven't really dropped the season all semester. You've found

03:20:32.680 --> 03:20:37.480
a way to get yourself out of a O2 hole, which says you're pretty much locked in.

03:20:37.480 --> 03:20:44.200
It has to be Concord for me. But look, predictions are one thing. The real problem,

03:20:44.200 --> 03:20:46.440
The real test is the actual game.

03:20:46.440 --> 03:20:51.200
It is a best of five series, a last series of the evening.

03:20:51.200 --> 03:20:55.600
It is Concord, it is Fisher, and hitting the pitch right now.

03:20:55.600 --> 03:20:59.680
Dominance vs. resilience, Fisher has never say die,

03:20:59.680 --> 03:21:03.120
and the big bad Concord are going to clash.

03:21:03.120 --> 03:21:06.040
It's our last series of the afternoon.

03:21:06.040 --> 03:21:08.280
Castors, you're on!

03:21:08.280 --> 03:21:16.520
The comeback trail is littered with twists and turns and different starting points.

03:21:16.520 --> 03:21:20.120
For Fisher, their comeback semester has to be right now.

03:21:20.120 --> 03:21:25.720
For Concord, it's been an entire semester of comeback after last semester was definitely

03:21:25.720 --> 03:21:26.880
not up to par.

03:21:26.880 --> 03:21:30.040
Both these teams need to ride that momentum to do playoffs.

03:21:30.040 --> 03:21:31.960
One of them, looking like they're going to make it.

03:21:31.960 --> 03:21:35.000
The other one has to start that now.

03:21:35.000 --> 03:21:40.420
Since I'm in this one out here, Pyro, you and I, for the final series of the day, I could not be more excited.

03:21:40.420 --> 03:21:46.080
Let's get it. Let's bookend it this day with, hopefully, a stutter of a match. We've had some game pours.

03:21:46.080 --> 03:21:51.040
We just had a game five, and I'm estimating game five here.

03:21:51.040 --> 03:21:59.160
Fisher, to make that big comeback that you're mentioning, they have to believe that Concord didn't just decide to turn their monitors on for that reverse sweep.

03:21:59.160 --> 03:22:02.800
That there is still a tinge of doubt that they can pierce in this game.

03:22:02.800 --> 03:22:07.800
Oh! First pierce goes to Fisher! Roy Alice, the one to get her started off.

03:22:07.800 --> 03:22:10.800
It's technically a double team effort here as two players go for it.

03:22:10.800 --> 03:22:14.800
When he says he'll do it solo, forget it, Ivan. You're not getting the goal that easily.

03:22:14.800 --> 03:22:18.800
Well, those are my favorite goals, right? Alice has the name in the limelight there,

03:22:18.800 --> 03:22:24.800
but the work was done with the disruption amongst the demos. Let him walk it in.

03:22:24.800 --> 03:22:27.800
It really feels like this is going to be a back-and-forth-office series

03:22:27.800 --> 03:22:29.800
where goals like that are going to be pretty commonplace.

03:22:29.800 --> 03:22:33.420
It's not necessarily gonna be easy to get a goal, but if you ever move the defenders

03:22:33.420 --> 03:22:37.240
I'm pretty sure anybody here is capable of scoring on a relatively open net

03:22:37.600 --> 03:22:42.300
So like there might be even some more defenders removed and there's another open net and they will score

03:22:43.080 --> 03:22:48.280
Why are you guys like the the lot of numbers like it feels like I just got prediction powers right now. I

03:22:48.840 --> 03:22:55.900
Mean I was given it to realize to be the guy but right now one player has three demos and it's just us

03:22:55.900 --> 03:22:59.200
Listen, 9L demos are the same, right?

03:22:59.200 --> 03:23:01.400
It's got to be well-timed, it's got to be on the right player.

03:23:01.400 --> 03:23:03.000
It has to provide an opening for your team.

03:23:03.000 --> 03:23:05.900
It feels like all three demos have been perfect from him.

03:23:05.900 --> 03:23:09.400
Yeah, just us again has been a very talented player,

03:23:09.400 --> 03:23:12.900
but the player that we're looking at for a Fisher right now is going to be Ivan.

03:23:12.900 --> 03:23:14.900
They started off the season with a four-man roster.

03:23:14.900 --> 03:23:16.400
They were playing with Adam initially,

03:23:16.400 --> 03:23:20.700
but now Ivan finally has appearances here in CRL, which does make sense.

03:23:20.700 --> 03:23:22.700
This is the roster they ran with last semester,

03:23:22.700 --> 03:23:24.700
so you'd be surprised to see them switch it up.

03:23:24.700 --> 03:23:27.400
But again, Adam's a well-known name in the CRL space.

03:23:27.400 --> 03:23:29.900
Been around for a long time, has a lot of impressed backlades,

03:23:29.900 --> 03:23:32.000
so it makes sense to at least try it out.

03:23:32.000 --> 03:23:32.900
Try as they like, though.

03:23:32.900 --> 03:23:34.300
It has not been a successful semester.

03:23:34.300 --> 03:23:35.800
Something had to change.

03:23:35.800 --> 03:23:37.700
And already, you're seeing with the addition of Ivan,

03:23:37.700 --> 03:23:39.800
it seems like things are changing for the better.

03:23:39.800 --> 03:23:41.900
Not to mention it hasn't been a successful day

03:23:41.900 --> 03:23:44.200
for the teams that are just trying things out.

03:23:44.200 --> 03:23:46.100
R.E. West Virginia.

03:23:46.100 --> 03:23:48.600
But they sure are going to prove that they're not the same.

03:23:48.600 --> 03:23:50.300
They had a little bit of a dodgy moment there.

03:23:50.300 --> 03:23:52.900
Two players colliding with the other.

03:23:52.900 --> 03:24:01.700
And, uh, Crispy is gonna make a collision happen as well, but not if that is enough to make for a golf tour on court until right now.

03:24:02.300 --> 03:24:08.580
Wait, I mean, I gotta watch this one back. Obviously, some loss gets the air dribble, but, uh, where's the deep fence?

03:24:08.580 --> 03:24:10.900
I know there was a demo, but I didn't think it was gonna leave it that open.

03:24:10.900 --> 03:24:13.900
I think just Riles and Justus are believing they can push up a little bit further.

03:24:13.900 --> 03:24:16.500
Things get out of whack, and immediately it's an open net.

03:24:16.500 --> 03:24:22.300
So, both teams need to be careful. As much as I understand, this is gonna be a very offensive bout between the two teams.

03:24:22.300 --> 03:24:23.840
The offense is still going to be required.

03:24:23.840 --> 03:24:35.800
I'm not surprised to see that it's Samas, the one kind of carrying it in that and making that move because that was the player to absolutely pop off in the series we just watched.

03:24:35.800 --> 03:24:42.300
Samas a dangerous asset to this Concord roster, certainly looking for more than just that.

03:24:42.300 --> 03:24:47.700
Mostran take this one through the corner, and even 50 himself in but Roy Alice in the way.

03:24:47.700 --> 03:24:50.900
Lockout's a little bit awkward for Crispy, does he even have a touch here?

03:24:50.900 --> 03:24:55.400
Yes he does, and he actually coordinates it with Samosa, they can get a touch back, then the opposite half.

03:24:55.400 --> 03:25:00.600
Doesn't get that far, just does an Ivan instead, gonna try to turn that into a shot, but unsuccessfully.

03:25:00.600 --> 03:25:06.800
And Rezzi to take over, slippery set out center, pass back potentially to Rezzi, but instead it fires off as a shot.

03:25:06.800 --> 03:25:12.960
Concord, though, loadin' him up and just taking shot after shot until eventually something will fall.

03:25:12.960 --> 03:25:14.400
We're talking again.

03:25:14.400 --> 03:25:17.240
And Samas does it again.

03:25:17.240 --> 03:25:20.920
And nearly all the demos for his team, all of the goals for his team.

03:25:20.920 --> 03:25:26.200
And I had a little more belief there in Royaleis to stay behind the ball on the first touch from the backboard.

03:25:26.200 --> 03:25:29.560
But they give Concord an inch, they'll take a mile.

03:25:29.560 --> 03:25:34.480
And now we have found ourselves at a dead even halfway through this first game.

03:25:34.480 --> 03:25:39.160
Again, we are expecting this to be the type of game, I guess, at least on paper when you talk about Fisher.

03:25:39.160 --> 03:25:44.680
It's just they haven't shown moments like this throughout the semester. Fantastic response!

03:25:44.680 --> 03:25:51.640
Ivan was this olden dagger for the RLCST must covering in SSA.

03:25:51.640 --> 03:25:56.320
The ability to shine with those mechanics at the right time.

03:25:56.320 --> 03:26:02.720
The playmaking ability is out of this world and it's a great T-up to Royaleis to take the lead back.

03:26:02.720 --> 03:26:04.520
Well, let's see if he can even add on to it.

03:26:04.520 --> 03:26:09.920
Hush off the backboard, goes straight to Justus, and the shot on target requires two players from Concord to stop.

03:26:09.920 --> 03:26:13.920
It does work out though, because Rezzi, it's straight to him and he gets the top of the other way.

03:26:13.920 --> 03:26:16.320
But not all that far, Realus on the wall.

03:26:16.320 --> 03:26:20.120
He might still have a reset, and so does Samas, that's why he waited to make the challenge.

03:26:20.120 --> 03:26:24.620
Miz, he serves it right back up to Justus, who's gonna try to find something towards the net.

03:26:24.620 --> 03:26:26.320
Not quite enough.

03:26:26.320 --> 03:26:29.720
Someone's just gonna lurking on the Concord half a longer than I was anticipating.

03:26:29.720 --> 03:26:31.320
It does kind of feel like Concord.

03:26:31.320 --> 03:26:36.320
Little bit of growing paint. Maybe it's because of the fact that they were used to the play style and dominance that they just proved against...

03:26:36.320 --> 03:26:40.820
Never mind. No, no, no, no. No growing paint, none of that. It just took them a second and we're back tied.

03:26:40.820 --> 03:26:47.820
And they went through the paint and now they are standing at the top of the total pole from top to down.

03:26:47.820 --> 03:26:53.820
Goes crispy at the top of the CRL leaderboard and they're looking to stay there.

03:26:53.820 --> 03:27:03.820
3-3, 6 goals in just about 4 minutes time. Not even, like 3 minutes and 20 seconds here in our first game, this is going to be an absolute offensive powerhouse on either end.

03:27:03.820 --> 03:27:11.820
Ready to see how this one develops, but with 90 seconds to play, there is still technically time for either team to find at least a couple more here in regulation, especially if you double commit.

03:27:11.820 --> 03:27:18.820
Just thus, if he had a little bit more boost in tank, probably could have fired that at net, but instead, one person possession play for Fisher instead.

03:27:18.820 --> 03:27:22.260
Well, that's good 50. He can't find the follow though.

03:27:22.260 --> 03:27:25.660
Samos with some crazy composure and have to go for the save there.

03:27:25.660 --> 03:27:33.000
It's the President's mind for Samos to make those split-second decisions and keep Concord ahead.

03:27:33.000 --> 03:27:35.800
Speaking of ahead though, Residant intercepts the counterattack pass.

03:27:35.800 --> 03:27:40.100
That's a great tee-up from Samos to himself. Triple tap nearly there.

03:27:40.100 --> 03:27:42.100
But it goes just off the mark.

03:27:42.100 --> 03:27:45.700
Clearly ain't enough. You need to put something perfectly on target

03:27:45.700 --> 03:27:47.700
or at least have a follow-up from another player.

03:27:47.700 --> 03:27:53.640
Somebody from Concord was there, but it really needs some more firepower just like that great save from Royalis

03:27:53.820 --> 03:27:55.820
Here come the rest of Concord again

03:27:55.820 --> 03:28:01.420
Rezzy shot on target forces another save and he gets the boost skill only about a half a minute to play

03:28:01.420 --> 03:28:05.300
This is a dangerous position for Fisher here. They don't want to over commit while low on resources

03:28:05.620 --> 03:28:09.940
Great read from Royalee. Samas was cooking something and he's cooking once again

03:28:10.580 --> 03:28:12.580
Go crispy

03:28:12.580 --> 03:28:18.700
the lead. I'm telling you man my predictions are on point right now because I said don't

03:28:18.700 --> 03:28:23.360
over commit and what do they do? Over commit. Great to each of the fantastic passing play

03:28:23.360 --> 03:28:27.760
to get around the third defender who was technically within the area but you're stuck

03:28:27.760 --> 03:28:31.720
in a rock and a hard place there. Two fantastic players against you you have to make a challenge

03:28:31.720 --> 03:28:35.540
and unfortunately the challenge failed. Twenty seconds left though plenty of time

03:28:35.540 --> 03:28:37.640
for a response in order to send it to OT.

03:28:37.640 --> 03:28:43.040
A BOLICAL JALLANGE FROM SUBASTIAN, WAITING ON THE SEALING, HAS A FLIP, CAN GO WHEREVER.

03:28:43.040 --> 03:28:48.440
THE OFFENSE DECIDES, HAS CONCORD CLOSED UP ALL, GAPS HERE TO SCORE.

03:28:48.440 --> 03:28:51.200
THE FINAL TEN SECONDS SUBASTIAN WITH ANOTHER TOUCH.

03:28:51.200 --> 03:28:55.400
HE SEEMS TO BE EVERYWHERE THAT CONCORD NEEDS HIM TO BE.

03:28:55.400 --> 03:28:57.240
AND IT SEEMS IT WAS ENOUGH.

03:28:57.240 --> 03:28:58.800
FEAR OF SECONDS ON THE CLOCK.

03:28:58.800 --> 03:28:59.440
HELL?

03:28:59.440 --> 03:29:00.720
STILL ALIVE, IVEN.

03:29:00.720 --> 03:29:02.280
SEALING TOUCH.

03:29:02.280 --> 03:29:03.960
SUBASTIAN WHITE OFF THE BAN.

03:29:03.960 --> 03:29:05.800
THE RAMP KEEPS SUBAL LIVE.

03:29:05.800 --> 03:29:09.200
Justice will not keep the ball high though.

03:29:09.200 --> 03:29:11.960
Concord, take the lead at the right time

03:29:11.960 --> 03:29:13.800
and take that first win.

03:29:13.800 --> 03:29:15.640
That's a great start here for Concord

03:29:15.640 --> 03:29:18.640
and I gotta admit, Fisher impressing me so far.

03:29:18.640 --> 03:29:21.440
Again, we haven't been able to see this trio in a hot minute

03:29:21.440 --> 03:29:24.040
and I'm glad to see that the trio is at least contesting

03:29:24.040 --> 03:29:26.040
because that wasn't the big issue for Fisher.

03:29:26.040 --> 03:29:27.200
Wasn't it being like, oh, you know,

03:29:27.200 --> 03:29:28.600
oh, they're taking losses, but they're keeping it close.

03:29:28.600 --> 03:29:31.520
It was taking losses in pretty dramatic fashion

03:29:31.520 --> 03:29:32.640
if I'm being quite frank.

03:29:32.640 --> 03:29:33.480
I'm not mistaken.

03:29:33.480 --> 03:29:38.360
3-0 loss to CMU that's Cumberland, 3-1 loss to Boise.

03:29:38.360 --> 03:29:41.240
It's not as if they've been able to keep games in series close.

03:29:41.240 --> 03:29:44.840
So the fact that they're doing that here against the number one team in the league,

03:29:44.840 --> 03:29:47.640
props to them. We might actually have a battle on our hands.

03:29:48.200 --> 03:29:54.040
Yeah, it's like where do you send that benchmark for Fisher as they seem to be trending up?

03:29:54.040 --> 03:29:57.960
The problem is you've got to trend up in a parabolic fashion.

03:29:57.960 --> 03:30:00.120
If you're going to catch up to Concord,

03:30:00.120 --> 03:30:05.720
This is not really the team that you want to have to have your new squad beat battle tested.

03:30:05.720 --> 03:30:09.480
But I agree good showing for Fisher. I just want to see goals happen in a more

03:30:10.040 --> 03:30:13.320
organic sense. I felt like it was flurry at the start of the game,

03:30:13.320 --> 03:30:17.960
bass, whereas Concord seemed more measured throughout the game and at the end of the

03:30:17.960 --> 03:30:21.560
tally, they were up. Yeah, the big thing is again, we want to see passing plays like what

03:30:21.560 --> 03:30:28.120
that final was because we know all three players on both sides of the pitch are effortlessly

03:30:28.120 --> 03:30:31.560
playing around each other. They have that chemistry. They have that cohesion.

03:30:31.560 --> 03:30:34.520
I don't know if we really saw that in game one. Again, it was a lot of solo chance and something

03:30:34.520 --> 03:30:38.360
you were talking about in the last series here. So the question is, can they change that up from

03:30:38.360 --> 03:30:43.160
game two? And maybe that's the advantage Fisher is looking for. Second game officially underway,

03:30:43.160 --> 03:30:47.720
I will state this. Kind of do or die for Fisher. You do not want to reverse sweep against Concord.

03:30:49.320 --> 03:30:54.760
Yeah, we don't have the same expectations for Fisher when it comes to Concord's ability

03:30:54.760 --> 03:31:01.400
through reverse sweep and a lot of that is due to the fact that it is awkward on the other side.

03:31:01.400 --> 03:31:06.200
Well, it was a scoring spree in game number one, so far scoreless, but

03:31:07.000 --> 03:31:11.160
it's time for Resident Company to change that Opsamas over the top.

03:31:12.600 --> 03:31:16.200
He kind of knew as soon as that went back out center. That was a goal almost guaranteed.

03:31:16.200 --> 03:31:18.680
It was super awkward here. Poor challenge that it just does.

03:31:18.680 --> 03:31:21.160
The demo ends up turning into a smoke screen kind of against

03:31:21.160 --> 03:31:27.720
I can't get you despite getting the demo. Yeah, that's another one of those awkward moments that as much as you want to kind of, you know

03:31:27.760 --> 03:31:29.760
Take away from Fisher's defense

03:31:30.160 --> 03:31:32.160
They come in the most in the right moments

03:31:33.320 --> 03:31:38.100
About to kick off. Whoa the miss from Fisher doesn't go

03:31:39.040 --> 03:31:46.560
Leverage by the team that one is off the post and it's close call central here. They get it off for a game, too

03:31:47.120 --> 03:31:49.120
It sure that would have been a nice one to steal away

03:31:51.160 --> 03:31:54.100
They're not going to get that one, and I actually don't think they're going to get much afterwards.

03:31:54.100 --> 03:31:56.540
That's an awkward challenge in Royalex, and I think he knows that,

03:31:56.540 --> 03:32:00.360
which is why Rezzy's just going to try and take a flick the other way to force this stop to the offense.

03:32:00.740 --> 03:32:04.840
It does work out, but I've been great recovering up the side wall, or maybe a bit of an overcommit,

03:32:04.840 --> 03:32:09.440
because now his two teammates in the back line need to make up for the three-man offense that's just fired against them.

03:32:09.840 --> 03:32:12.440
Four minutes left in this game, we've only gone through the first,

03:32:12.440 --> 03:32:14.600
but it really does kind of feel like Concord again.

03:32:14.600 --> 03:32:17.460
More and more confident, more and more comfortable as the series goes on.

03:32:17.460 --> 03:32:22.960
That's just a scary thing. So how do you break through? How do you make Concord sweat?

03:32:22.960 --> 03:32:27.460
I guess you barrel the ball off the backboard and just try to generate chances like that.

03:32:27.460 --> 03:32:32.960
Right there from Mayales, that was the leaderboard leader for his team.

03:32:32.960 --> 03:32:38.460
I would say MVP, but they didn't win the last game. They're generating chances on the backboard.

03:32:38.460 --> 03:32:43.960
Still trying to break through, but that full boost backboard defense from Rezzi is not enough.

03:32:43.960 --> 03:32:46.960
Ivan gets it right between them.

03:32:46.960 --> 03:32:50.880
You got to feel for rising, because he knew as soon as he made this touch, it was the worst play possible.

03:32:50.880 --> 03:32:55.480
It's why he seemed to try to get down, put his nose down to try and get a 50 in the way, just to make him put it out hard to get it.

03:32:55.480 --> 03:32:58.520
But without a perfect 50, that's a goal almost every time.

03:32:58.520 --> 03:33:01.480
Good response from Fischer, proving that they are not infallible.

03:33:01.480 --> 03:33:04.440
Concord can make mistakes, and you can punish them for it.

03:33:04.800 --> 03:33:07.440
I think it's about enforcing those mistakes.

03:33:07.440 --> 03:33:09.800
Roy Allies was that enforcer.

03:33:09.800 --> 03:33:16.240
Ivan was that savior, but nobody was left for the bullet in return from Crispy.

03:33:16.240 --> 03:33:22.960
And this is the problem with playing Concord even if you play well, they make you so awkward that three players on the line

03:33:22.960 --> 03:33:27.120
None of them can stop it. That just has to suck in if you're Fisher

03:33:27.120 --> 03:33:30.120
You're playing right you're doing the right stuff and it's still not enough

03:33:30.760 --> 03:33:33.520
I'm recognizing a theme here with the goals that are scored

03:33:33.880 --> 03:33:38.280
Sometimes the defense just mustn't shape up the way they're supposed to the saves the clears

03:33:38.280 --> 03:33:43.880
They're not in a position the defenders and the goal line just can't get the ball away

03:33:43.880 --> 03:33:45.200
Hey!

03:33:45.200 --> 03:33:47.360
Second time I've said this today, but I, for an eye,

03:33:47.360 --> 03:33:50.000
again, physicality and just redirection in front of the net.

03:33:50.000 --> 03:33:51.200
I think initially, they're thinking

03:33:51.200 --> 03:33:52.840
what Alice is trying to go over with that one,

03:33:52.840 --> 03:33:54.560
because he does have extra boots to the tank.

03:33:54.560 --> 03:33:56.280
He plays it low, throws it up to his teammate,

03:33:56.280 --> 03:33:57.560
and immediately the block comes out,

03:33:57.560 --> 03:33:58.800
and it's a great shot on target.

03:33:58.800 --> 03:34:01.160
So again, as much as we keep talking about Concord

03:34:01.160 --> 03:34:02.640
at the advantage in this series,

03:34:02.640 --> 03:34:06.720
it does seem like Fisher has a response on every play.

03:34:06.720 --> 03:34:09.000
After neither team, you look at the goals they've

03:34:09.000 --> 03:34:10.080
scored in each game.

03:34:10.080 --> 03:34:13.360
And if they didn't know, Tally on the other side

03:34:13.360 --> 03:34:15.760
They'd say, oh, of course we're coming away with the wins.

03:34:15.760 --> 03:34:18.840
No, we are just in the middle of a shootout.

03:34:18.840 --> 03:34:21.360
That only gets worse.

03:34:21.360 --> 03:34:23.640
You're kidding me.

03:34:23.640 --> 03:34:26.180
Fisher, you know you can score without doing air dribble

03:34:26.180 --> 03:34:27.040
bumps, right?

03:34:27.040 --> 03:34:27.640
That's great.

03:34:27.640 --> 03:34:29.800
I think you should keep going, because it's working for you

03:34:29.800 --> 03:34:32.480
to sink a pole in a row with the exact same setup.

03:34:32.480 --> 03:34:35.120
So can we give Confimus to Fisher for executing

03:34:35.120 --> 03:34:37.240
perfectly again, or do we maybe have some questions

03:34:37.240 --> 03:34:39.080
about, hey, Concord, if they show you the same play

03:34:39.080 --> 03:34:40.760
twice, maybe you should be a little more

03:34:40.760 --> 03:34:43.160
prepared for it the second time?

03:34:43.160 --> 03:34:47.360
I mean, listen, if they come out with the win, they can use their past excuse.

03:34:47.360 --> 03:34:49.360
So we hadn't woken up yet.

03:34:49.360 --> 03:34:54.760
Okay, we didn't know about the air dribble bumps, but they've got to come out with the win first.

03:34:54.760 --> 03:34:57.760
The lead at the moment, Ivan.

03:34:57.760 --> 03:35:02.760
He's stendily right now for Fisher as he races away and steals that boost from Rezzi.

03:35:02.760 --> 03:35:04.760
I think he would have liked a lot.

03:35:04.760 --> 03:35:07.260
Full boost on every player on Fisher here.

03:35:07.260 --> 03:35:10.760
This should be at least them setting up shop for a moment.

03:35:10.760 --> 03:35:16.000
Might not need to be that many moments considering whatever just happened in front of the net no boost for anybody on concord

03:35:16.000 --> 03:35:19.000
Somehow they do survive and interference on Ivan

03:35:19.000 --> 03:35:24.160
I think it's gonna make a huge difference is yeah time to grab boost and time to get off the half not quite yet though

03:35:24.160 --> 03:35:29.640
Off the backboard brezi needs a touch and you will find it or boost stolen in the corners here concord

03:35:29.640 --> 03:35:31.040
Starting to look a little dire

03:35:31.040 --> 03:35:36.440
Pinch it going on target with a little bit more power. Maybe they could have ended that one and given themselves even further a

03:35:36.440 --> 03:35:43.200
We're starting to see better vision on the field for defenders to keep it closer.

03:35:43.200 --> 03:35:49.120
Rezi had a really nice half flip save there against Fisher and now you're seeing the same

03:35:49.120 --> 03:35:52.280
kind of pressure all the way into a goal this time around.

03:35:52.280 --> 03:35:56.280
I don't think this was physicality necessarily as much as again awkwardness here.

03:35:56.280 --> 03:35:57.560
Rezi's got to make the challenge.

03:35:57.560 --> 03:36:00.640
The Moss tries to make one afterwards, but he's kind of waiting on the outcome of

03:36:00.640 --> 03:36:01.640
that touch from Rezi.

03:36:01.640 --> 03:36:04.720
He doesn't really amount to much and the passing pledge is instead of putting in such

03:36:04.720 --> 03:36:10.680
an awkward position as he's coming off the backwood left side and it goes perfectly bottom right awkward all around here for

03:36:10.680 --> 03:36:16.440
Concord in game 2 and maybe this is Fisher's game plan just keep them awkward make these uncomfortable positions on defense just a

03:36:16.560 --> 03:36:21.720
Repeated thing and just see when you can find your opening work so far for goals in just about three minutes

03:36:21.720 --> 03:36:26.440
I think they're gonna find a fifth year I've been running block just in case more Alice has a hat trick

03:36:26.600 --> 03:36:33.600
They're talking about the disruption right the inability for Concord to remove this awkwardness from the series

03:36:33.600 --> 03:36:38.100
How do you follow a game plan when you keep getting demoed?

03:36:38.100 --> 03:36:43.600
That elimination on the third man opened things way too wide for Fisher to that score.

03:36:44.600 --> 03:36:46.100
This is a very different version of Fisher.

03:36:46.100 --> 03:36:49.600
Like we said, they have been somewhat unremarkable throughout this season.

03:36:49.600 --> 03:36:53.100
Considering the path accolades we expected so much.

03:36:53.100 --> 03:36:57.100
Now we're starting to see what they really could look like if they played like this consistently.

03:36:57.100 --> 03:37:02.600
Five goals in less than four minutes and incredibly impressive record so far here through this series.

03:37:02.600 --> 03:37:05.480
But again, I'm waiting for the defense to start stepping up.

03:37:05.480 --> 03:37:08.480
We have had at least six goals in two games.

03:37:08.480 --> 03:37:10.600
No, actually seven goals in two games now.

03:37:10.600 --> 03:37:15.280
What point do we start to see maybe the defense become a bit more a priority and a bit more focus?

03:37:15.280 --> 03:37:18.480
I mean, maybe Fisher have started to figure it out.

03:37:18.480 --> 03:37:22.520
That may be the best defense is, well, more offense, a six goal.

03:37:22.520 --> 03:37:27.080
Nearly on the tally here in utter a minute left, so Concord it is.

03:37:27.080 --> 03:37:31.720
Do or die at this point on this possession as Samas guys generate.

03:37:31.720 --> 03:37:37.320
A pass, Krispy back on it with a second tap, no boost left, no problem.

03:37:37.320 --> 03:37:41.320
Let me correct myself, let's make that eight goals now at this point, and look, with 30 seconds left,

03:37:41.320 --> 03:37:46.120
any other team might say that this one's likely done and dusted, but I don't know man, Concord,

03:37:46.120 --> 03:37:50.280
not only do they always have like an ace up their sleeve, but they're known for their kick-off shenanigans,

03:37:50.280 --> 03:37:52.760
so pay attention, something could happen here.

03:37:53.560 --> 03:37:59.560
Off the kick-off, on goes for either team, Krispy with full boost, has the ball,

03:37:59.560 --> 03:38:01.360
That's the one that scored the previous goal.

03:38:01.360 --> 03:38:02.500
Can they generate another chance?

03:38:02.500 --> 03:38:07.200
And someone just has to be there for Concord as the ball

03:38:07.200 --> 03:38:09.640
teetered right on that goal line.

03:38:09.640 --> 03:38:11.120
That should have been the fourth goal.

03:38:11.120 --> 03:38:13.160
And we should have had a nearly tied game

03:38:13.160 --> 03:38:15.320
and another kickoff that would have determined it all.

03:38:15.320 --> 03:38:17.760
Instead though, Concord forced back into their half

03:38:17.760 --> 03:38:20.080
and Fisher would at least get one,

03:38:20.080 --> 03:38:21.680
as this game is just too far out ahead.

03:38:21.680 --> 03:38:22.800
Wait a minute.

03:38:22.800 --> 03:38:24.040
Oh.

03:38:24.040 --> 03:38:28.080
Wait, wait a minute, wait a minute.

03:38:28.080 --> 03:38:30.080
They got two seconds.

03:38:30.080 --> 03:38:31.040
Oh, yeah.

03:38:31.040 --> 03:38:34.680
And the kickoff goals were great from Conqueror.

03:38:34.680 --> 03:38:36.600
Last match, it was normally against them,

03:38:36.600 --> 03:38:40.440
but any team can generate a chance in this position.

03:38:40.440 --> 03:38:41.640
Well, it's your breath, folks.

03:38:41.640 --> 03:38:43.360
This means everything.

03:38:43.360 --> 03:38:44.240
Double kickoff.

03:38:44.240 --> 03:38:46.720
That's all I was going to say, not enough.

03:38:46.720 --> 03:38:47.800
It is not enough.

03:38:47.800 --> 03:38:49.520
Homo's rolled up the wall there.

03:38:49.520 --> 03:38:50.280
It does not.

03:38:50.280 --> 03:38:52.560
And Fisher, by a slip margin, I

03:38:52.560 --> 03:38:55.560
will add, do get the win here in game two.

03:38:55.560 --> 03:38:57.520
At Conqueror, we're never going to make it easy.

03:38:57.520 --> 03:39:00.040
Were they 5 to 2, 40 seconds left?

03:39:00.040 --> 03:39:01.360
This one's dusted, right?

03:39:01.360 --> 03:39:03.960
Absolutely not, Fisher.

03:39:03.960 --> 03:39:06.240
Stay on the edge of your seat.

03:39:06.240 --> 03:39:08.560
But hey, it really looks like they did

03:39:08.560 --> 03:39:11.880
lean forward in their gamer chairs after that one,

03:39:11.880 --> 03:39:16.040
because the shot generation, the quality of goals,

03:39:16.040 --> 03:39:18.800
was on par with the top of Concord.

03:39:18.800 --> 03:39:21.880
Hey, Fisher, I'm going to make one singular recommendation

03:39:21.880 --> 03:39:22.640
to change this here.

03:39:22.640 --> 03:39:25.160
Somebody help Royalis.

03:39:25.160 --> 03:39:27.800
He had 100% goal participation in that game.

03:39:27.800 --> 03:39:29.840
Three goals to assist, six shot.

03:39:29.840 --> 03:39:32.920
Second game in a row, he's put up at least 600 points.

03:39:32.920 --> 03:39:36.040
So I know we talk about, hey, it can't just be one guy

03:39:36.040 --> 03:39:38.120
in the long gondor of the days of the singular hero

03:39:38.120 --> 03:39:39.320
for a team in CRL.

03:39:39.320 --> 03:39:41.480
Roy Alice might be trying to disprove that at this point.

03:39:41.480 --> 03:39:44.440
My goodness, what a performance he's had through two games.

03:39:44.440 --> 03:39:46.840
That was my player to watch coming into this match.

03:39:46.840 --> 03:39:50.440
He kind of forces that by putting himself in the spotlight

03:39:50.440 --> 03:39:52.480
and kind of doing the most.

03:39:52.480 --> 03:39:53.840
It's one of those things that you

03:39:53.840 --> 03:39:59.340
We don't want all that pressure on one player, but if they're executing well under the pressure,

03:39:59.340 --> 03:40:02.920
you might just put them in that position anyway, right?

03:40:02.920 --> 03:40:04.400
They hand them the rock.

03:40:04.400 --> 03:40:10.800
It's enough for that one win, but we learned already today that one win, even two, isn't

03:40:10.800 --> 03:40:11.800
enough.

03:40:11.800 --> 03:40:12.800
Good old rock.

03:40:12.800 --> 03:40:16.440
Let's see if either team can improve upon the chaos we've seen through the first two

03:40:16.440 --> 03:40:18.160
games here in our third map.

03:40:18.160 --> 03:40:20.640
Again, I'm not going to state that Concord's played poorly.

03:40:20.640 --> 03:40:22.440
That would be by far an exaggeration.

03:40:22.440 --> 03:40:24.480
But this isn't the control type of gameplay

03:40:24.480 --> 03:40:25.800
I'm expecting from Concord.

03:40:25.800 --> 03:40:28.120
They really haven't seemingly found the comfortability

03:40:28.120 --> 03:40:29.640
like they did in the last series.

03:40:29.640 --> 03:40:31.080
I'm curious to see if that changes up here.

03:40:31.080 --> 03:40:33.240
Meanwhile, Fisher seem to be as comfortable as ever.

03:40:33.240 --> 03:40:35.080
They've actually kind of liked the chaos a little bit more.

03:40:35.080 --> 03:40:37.760
It seems to work with their play style.

03:40:37.760 --> 03:40:40.800
We were never expecting anything but chaos

03:40:40.800 --> 03:40:42.680
with this dynamic roster.

03:40:42.680 --> 03:40:45.880
In fact, that's kind of been a theme of today

03:40:45.880 --> 03:40:49.040
is what roster changes are or lineup changes are

03:40:49.040 --> 03:40:50.760
working for teams.

03:40:50.760 --> 03:40:53.340
For Fisher, it's good enough for a game win.

03:40:54.300 --> 03:40:55.760
Yeah, to the tally, Crispy.

03:40:56.640 --> 03:40:59.400
Shout out that Breszy is going to get a solid 50 on Ivan.

03:40:59.700 --> 03:41:00.480
Please save your...

03:41:00.640 --> 03:41:01.140
That's it out.

03:41:02.240 --> 03:41:03.880
And he doesn't get it out to anybody, though.

03:41:03.880 --> 03:41:06.640
Instead, Smaus has to retreat and pick up that midfield post.

03:41:07.020 --> 03:41:08.340
There's an awkward challenge here.

03:41:08.340 --> 03:41:11.340
This should be fine for Crispy and Smaus, and indeed it will be,

03:41:11.340 --> 03:41:13.760
but they waste their entire tank to make those saves,

03:41:13.760 --> 03:41:15.520
and now here comes Royale to the full tank,

03:41:15.520 --> 03:41:16.660
and same with Justus.

03:41:16.660 --> 03:41:18.860
Too good in a row off the backcourt from Crispy.

03:41:19.160 --> 03:41:20.060
Job's not done.

03:41:20.060 --> 03:41:23.500
We're offense. Ivan takes it to the backboard, forces Rezzi high.

03:41:23.500 --> 03:41:25.460
He's playing like he doesn't have a lot of boost.

03:41:25.460 --> 03:41:28.980
He does have half a tank, so I think Concord trying to be a bit conservative here

03:41:28.980 --> 03:41:30.980
in comparison to the last couple defensive stands.

03:41:30.980 --> 03:41:33.180
We said they need to start prioritizing defense.

03:41:33.180 --> 03:41:34.540
I think that they got the memo.

03:41:34.540 --> 03:41:40.500
Well, it comes down to their plays on these individual ascents from Fisher.

03:41:40.500 --> 03:41:43.540
Notice their approach. It was Royale. I said it was Ivan.

03:41:43.540 --> 03:41:46.380
They had full boost with the ball. They go straight up.

03:41:46.380 --> 03:41:49.860
They say, Concord, if you want to defend us, you got to come to us.

03:41:49.860 --> 03:41:53.260
You have to use that full tank of boost to get us away.

03:41:53.260 --> 03:41:55.220
Maybe follow it up with demos as well.

03:41:55.220 --> 03:41:58.900
That is what Concord has done, but both remain scoreless.

03:41:58.900 --> 03:42:00.420
That was a very small demo from, I think,

03:42:00.420 --> 03:42:02.100
was Ivan on the third man at Concord.

03:42:02.100 --> 03:42:03.820
Otherwise, it would have been a follow-up play,

03:42:03.820 --> 03:42:05.700
but in between, so it actually forced Concord back

03:42:05.700 --> 03:42:06.220
in their half.

03:42:06.220 --> 03:42:07.820
Now we get a little bit of a midfield battle

03:42:07.820 --> 03:42:10.460
between the two teams as a result.

03:42:10.460 --> 03:42:11.620
When it's gone here in this game,

03:42:11.620 --> 03:42:13.940
this is by far the lowest score in the fair we have had

03:42:13.940 --> 03:42:16.940
in this series, and could have ended right there.

03:42:16.940 --> 03:42:18.420
Rezi, though, rotating through midfield,

03:42:18.420 --> 03:42:22.100
didn't have a chance to dive as the second man's a concord instead will take it back to their half

03:42:22.260 --> 03:42:27.720
It's Moss awkward air dribble, but he gets Ivan to fight which is probably not the best thing for Fisher here as now

03:42:27.720 --> 03:42:33.500
Here comes the onslaught not quite enough though again crispy out of midfield take this one high great first touch

03:42:33.620 --> 03:42:36.980
So the reset around just us but instead it's actually I've been coming cross court

03:42:36.980 --> 03:42:42.180
Who's gonna make the stop and again both teams playing much better defense in comparison to the first couple games

03:42:42.700 --> 03:42:44.700
But it's quiet too quiet

03:42:44.700 --> 03:42:49.020
It just as was in position for the passback to Royales.

03:42:49.020 --> 03:42:51.940
They didn't quite generate what they were looking for, though.

03:42:51.940 --> 03:42:53.220
Session maintains.

03:42:53.220 --> 03:42:56.620
Just as, with 50 working the back line, no demo found.

03:42:56.620 --> 03:42:58.420
Crispy is hiding in the net.

03:42:58.420 --> 03:43:00.980
It's time to get out, though, as he makes the save.

03:43:00.980 --> 03:43:04.340
Ivan Barrels in the 50, right off the post.

03:43:04.340 --> 03:43:05.940
Not enough.

03:43:05.940 --> 03:43:08.620
Yeah, I would say that the defense is blocked in for Concord.

03:43:08.620 --> 03:43:11.260
What on earth is that stop on the line?

03:43:11.260 --> 03:43:13.940
Perfect 50, two in a row.

03:43:13.940 --> 03:43:17.580
It keeps us out of tied game and zero goals on the board so far.

03:43:17.580 --> 03:43:21.680
Good change here, though. Again, Fisher getting closer and closer to their opportunity to strike.

03:43:21.680 --> 03:43:25.400
I don't think this is gonna be the one, though. Awkward pinch out. I haven't actually been one to read it.

03:43:25.400 --> 03:43:30.380
And he doubled this on target! He can't! And his teammate again cannot get past Crispy!

03:43:30.380 --> 03:43:34.580
And Crispy gets bumped for his efforts. That's gotta be a little bit of frustration in that one there.

03:43:34.580 --> 03:43:42.220
That Crispy is like, I'm offering the most relief for my team as possible, and this is the thanks I get.

03:43:42.220 --> 03:43:49.100
I guess so, Savas, maybe you can help them out on the offensive side instead.

03:43:49.100 --> 03:43:54.740
Look at where Rezzy and Crispy are, they're so far back with full boost waiting for Fisher's next move.

03:43:54.740 --> 03:43:58.940
Good flip reset from Rezzy, but nobody from Fisher are going to bite on the follow-up touch.

03:43:58.940 --> 03:44:03.020
There's not a second man diving for concourse, so they know they don't need to be over-aggressive.

03:44:03.020 --> 03:44:07.180
Well, however, enjoy the aggression on the counter-attack. Royale's tries to take this high.

03:44:07.180 --> 03:44:11.020
Crispy though, tons of boost, tons of space, a reset on target,

03:44:11.020 --> 03:44:16.260
And two players commit from Fisher, this should be an opportunity for Concord and just fire one at Ned.

03:44:16.260 --> 03:44:23.660
Maybe it's to try and steal some boost, but that feels like a wasted opportunity, unless we can follow it up here, the demo though, still not enough!

03:44:24.320 --> 03:44:30.520
All the pieces of the puzzle together, but still nothing to show for.

03:44:30.520 --> 03:44:35.320
An open look that goes the other way, tough.

03:44:35.320 --> 03:44:41.960
Get back from for Concord can they generate a play like that again crispy full-boost individual play rolls it off

03:44:41.960 --> 03:44:46.680
The ceiling it did with just a shot there for Rezi on the other side. It's good

03:44:48.240 --> 03:44:51.080
Eventually something was gonna break it unfortunately for Fisher

03:44:51.080 --> 03:44:55.360
It was too many cooks in the kitchen awkward from Ivan as he comes diving off the backboard

03:44:55.360 --> 03:44:57.560
Roy Alice doesn't have boost to go up for that one

03:44:57.560 --> 03:45:04.160
So it had to be a perfect challenge from just us and it just wasn't quiet all around things get crossed a couple of wires

03:45:04.160 --> 03:45:07.600
get a bit too confused and that's gonna be enough for Conqueror to find a lead

03:45:07.600 --> 03:45:11.680
with under a minute to play. Fisher do have time but they got a hustle.

03:45:11.680 --> 03:45:16.400
Oh it's a ma. Some other touch, Krispy, can you get a pass three?

03:45:16.400 --> 03:45:19.760
Oh no! Somehow he can!

03:45:19.760 --> 03:45:25.200
I think it's an own goal! I think somebody from Fisher falls on this ball after Krispy touches it.

03:45:25.200 --> 03:45:30.080
Oh kind of, not quite. All right it's at least a 50 through. I'm gonna not

03:45:30.080 --> 03:45:33.040
count that as an own goal but I will count that as the end of the game

03:45:33.040 --> 03:45:36.020
Boring a miracle that the two-goal lead here for Concord

03:45:36.940 --> 03:45:42.480
It'll 1v3 with crispy on the one side. Who do you wait what or?

03:45:49.640 --> 03:45:54.800
Fake out Ivan plays the button. Oh just a misread from Samas. That isn't even a fake out

03:45:54.800 --> 03:45:58.280
He didn't even try to go for the challenge. I think he got intimidated and got stuck on the side post

03:45:58.280 --> 03:46:00.280
Um

03:46:00.280 --> 03:46:06.220
Is it still still feeling confident about that give me 20 seconds, and I'll tell you how I feel about it afterwards

03:46:07.480 --> 03:46:09.760
Wait if they score here, I definitely am confident

03:46:10.400 --> 03:46:14.280
They're not going to though are they no no of course they are not all right Fisher one more chance

03:46:14.280 --> 03:46:16.280
10 seconds to see what you got

03:46:16.560 --> 03:46:24.480
What can you find Royale says hey I've got the boost let me take care of business round the air dribble counter by some

03:46:24.480 --> 03:46:30.120
plus, as he's that full boost, this looks really tough to gather for Fisher, but again,

03:46:30.120 --> 03:46:33.600
Royalei says no worries, trust in the process.

03:46:33.600 --> 03:46:40.240
Ivan Flippery said no touch, later on the ball, they're still eating closer to the net, not

03:46:40.240 --> 03:46:41.240
close enough.

03:46:41.240 --> 03:46:44.040
Concord will steal this one away.

03:46:44.040 --> 03:46:50.280
Okay, now I'm confident in Concord winning that, yeah, I can double down now.

03:46:50.280 --> 03:46:55.040
However, the one double down I would not recommend is the amount of people on the line right now.

03:46:55.040 --> 03:46:58.380
For both teams, it kind of feels like they're just waiting for the shots to fire

03:46:58.380 --> 03:47:01.340
and then figuring out the game plan on how to escape afterwards.

03:47:01.340 --> 03:47:03.880
It's a problem for Fisher because I don't think they're playing for defense,

03:47:03.880 --> 03:47:07.880
but they are definitely playing a majority defense and just giving time for Kongor to cook.

03:47:08.480 --> 03:47:11.040
It's just something you really can't allow them to do.

03:47:11.040 --> 03:47:14.140
Some awesome Crispy, the two players with those assists.

03:47:14.140 --> 03:47:16.740
They know so well how to do it.

03:47:16.740 --> 03:47:19.940
I think back to that play from Crispy off the ceiling.

03:47:19.940 --> 03:47:22.460
We all saw him with too much space,

03:47:22.460 --> 03:47:25.500
and we knew what was happening next.

03:47:25.500 --> 03:47:28.420
You've got a classic Rocket League gamebass of,

03:47:28.420 --> 03:47:30.340
hey, there were seven goals in the last game,

03:47:30.340 --> 03:47:32.780
and, oh, yeah, the next one,

03:47:32.780 --> 03:47:35.180
there's barely more than one.

03:47:35.180 --> 03:47:38.260
Yeah, this is a very different series all around.

03:47:38.260 --> 03:47:40.060
Game one, seven, game two, nine.

03:47:40.060 --> 03:47:42.660
We get a total of, what, 16 goals in two games,

03:47:42.660 --> 03:47:44.340
and then three in the third.

03:47:44.340 --> 03:47:45.580
Yeah, it's quieting down,

03:47:45.580 --> 03:47:47.340
but I also think that this is both teams

03:47:47.340 --> 03:47:49.820
hitting the level at which we expect them to play.

03:47:49.820 --> 03:47:51.820
The problem is that there's very clearly

03:47:51.820 --> 03:47:53.140
different vibes about teams.

03:47:53.140 --> 03:47:55.660
All of Concord are laughing, having a good time, vibing.

03:47:55.660 --> 03:47:57.460
You saw in the background of Fisher,

03:47:57.460 --> 03:47:59.100
it is pressed in their ear telling them,

03:47:59.100 --> 03:48:02.060
hey, things are going wrong, it is time to make changes.

03:48:02.060 --> 03:48:03.140
This is their last chance.

03:48:03.140 --> 03:48:05.260
Nino Tokyo's been the deathbed for many of teams

03:48:05.260 --> 03:48:06.900
and for Fisher, this could be the deathbed

03:48:06.900 --> 03:48:08.380
for their semester if they're not careful.

03:48:08.380 --> 03:48:11.420
They need to prove that they can push this to five

03:48:11.420 --> 03:48:13.500
and stay in contention with the best

03:48:13.500 --> 03:48:14.940
that CRL will have to offer.

03:48:14.940 --> 03:48:18.300
It's a plane versus

03:48:18.300 --> 03:48:20.380
hives, as

03:48:20.380 --> 03:48:24.740
Concord just, yeah, have since the beginning kind of laughed off

03:48:24.740 --> 03:48:29.220
whatever play of the fourth. You gotta love the fact that we get cams on the

03:48:29.220 --> 03:48:32.940
players. They can see that kind of thing. The reactions after the goals

03:48:32.940 --> 03:48:36.820
they'll have a great reaction if they can get away with the series here in

03:48:36.820 --> 03:48:37.180
Game 4.

03:48:37.180 --> 03:48:42.100
So far not much happened to the first 30 seconds. Moss, that's a little awkward.

03:48:42.100 --> 03:48:44.200
He's gonna make the challenge, he's gonna wait to,

03:48:44.200 --> 03:48:46.720
and then two players will con-cord will commit.

03:48:46.720 --> 03:48:48.560
It means Reddy's gotta do a lot here to buy time

03:48:48.560 --> 03:48:50.060
for his teammates, and he is trying

03:48:50.060 --> 03:48:52.400
with the ugliest car I've ever seen.

03:48:52.400 --> 03:48:53.240
All right, you know what?

03:48:53.240 --> 03:48:54.960
I'm upset that Reddy gets the assist on that one.

03:48:54.960 --> 03:48:56.300
I don't want him to give him any credit

03:48:56.300 --> 03:48:57.960
for whatever that abomination is.

03:48:57.960 --> 03:48:59.200
Don't do deathmouts like that.

03:48:59.200 --> 03:49:01.760
You know, that's the best part of the car.

03:49:01.760 --> 03:49:03.440
The rest is awful.

03:49:03.440 --> 03:49:05.440
Okay, now we can agree on it.

03:49:05.440 --> 03:49:09.960
Style points don't necessarily get you scoreboard points,

03:49:09.960 --> 03:49:12.720
but they can help on out for Concord.

03:49:13.960 --> 03:49:16.320
I mean, maybe this is going into the vibes aspect

03:49:16.320 --> 03:49:17.160
we were talking about here.

03:49:17.160 --> 03:49:19.040
It really is just a team of fibers

03:49:19.040 --> 03:49:20.040
and it's working out

03:49:20.040 --> 03:49:21.720
because I think they might just find a second goal here.

03:49:21.720 --> 03:49:23.800
Awkward for Roy Allen, so make the save.

03:49:23.800 --> 03:49:25.520
Rezzie, with the fall of his own touch

03:49:25.520 --> 03:49:26.680
with a touch off the backboard,

03:49:26.680 --> 03:49:28.920
he does get it, but just does in the way.

03:49:28.920 --> 03:49:30.000
Smaas knocks off the ball.

03:49:30.000 --> 03:49:31.680
That'll probably end the offense here

03:49:31.680 --> 03:49:33.600
or at least make some hesitation for Concord

03:49:33.600 --> 03:49:35.720
but they'll still make a challenge out of midfields.

03:49:35.720 --> 03:49:36.960
Just does no boost here though

03:49:36.960 --> 03:49:38.720
so he can't really do too much with this ball

03:49:38.720 --> 03:49:41.560
And Smaas knows that, so he'll wait on the opposite side of the net.

03:49:41.560 --> 03:49:43.720
Prezi makes a fake challenge against Royals.

03:49:43.720 --> 03:49:46.120
I think just trying to force Fischer into some more of those awkward moments

03:49:46.120 --> 03:49:49.240
that they've been taking advantage of throughout the series.

03:49:49.240 --> 03:49:50.280
That's got to be a goal.

03:49:50.280 --> 03:49:51.480
And indeed, it is.

03:49:51.480 --> 03:49:53.080
A little bit of awkwardness on the net, actually,

03:49:53.080 --> 03:49:55.680
in contrast for Concord will give up one.

03:49:55.680 --> 03:49:57.120
Fischer were getting to the point

03:49:57.120 --> 03:50:00.760
where they believed it was voodoo that was the reason they couldn't score.

03:50:00.760 --> 03:50:05.480
Because how are some of these advances not landing Royales?

03:50:05.480 --> 03:50:08.520
Puts all the doubts to bed by equalizing.

03:50:08.520 --> 03:50:15.520
Alright, equalizer with about three and a half minutes to go, Concord, it does look like you're going to need to fight at least a little bit more to win this series.

03:50:15.520 --> 03:50:21.520
However, Rezi, potentially to himself, will back pass to Samos. He goes head hunting since Roy Alice to the heavens.

03:50:21.520 --> 03:50:28.520
Is it going to be enough for a goldmume? Not quite. Roy Alice could recovery, flip down field to open some space for his team-mates.

03:50:28.520 --> 03:50:34.520
Just does, tries to go for the ball, can't quite, so he set passing play. Rezi, almost to himself.

03:50:34.520 --> 03:50:37.520
Samos now to himself for sure, but Ivan in the way.

03:50:37.520 --> 03:50:42.020
That's a read that in my lobbies, I know no one's making, but even in this lobby I know it's difficult.

03:50:42.520 --> 03:50:47.020
Rezzy, I believe that he had it, but maybe the Topper got in the way.

03:50:47.020 --> 03:50:48.920
We'll see on the next chance.

03:50:49.420 --> 03:50:51.420
Waterfall, they can care of.

03:50:52.420 --> 03:50:57.320
My game continues here as Concord don't seem to break a sweat on their defensive rotation.

03:50:58.320 --> 03:51:02.720
50 for an hour, set a 5 in and I don't get bumped off of the ball almost immediately.

03:51:02.720 --> 03:51:07.720
Physicality is definitely not slowed down as this series has progressed speaking of which I've been trying to run interference in net

03:51:07.720 --> 03:51:11.480
It's still not enough. They sure are looking closer and closer to their second goal here

03:51:11.480 --> 03:51:12.480
But they can be careful

03:51:12.480 --> 03:51:18.640
We've talked about Fisher's inability to recognize when they over commit and give up goals and silly mode and silly mistakes

03:51:19.040 --> 03:51:20.120
And I play through this game

03:51:20.120 --> 03:51:24.840
It would suck to give up a goal right now and if even worse if you do it through physicality some loss looking for that

03:51:24.840 --> 03:51:27.320
Don't cannot find it two demos were not enough

03:51:27.320 --> 03:51:33.380
Such a smart play from Samas and getting position for the dunk after the smokescreen of the demo

03:51:33.380 --> 03:51:37.240
So it's very hard for the defender to realize that get Fisher remain alive

03:51:37.520 --> 03:51:43.080
This is a point of panic though. Can they survive or chilly or Fisher?

03:51:43.080 --> 03:51:47.400
There's no redirect right on the play in the painted justice

03:51:47.400 --> 03:51:50.160
Finds a round around has a hard time getting on four wheels

03:51:50.160 --> 03:51:55.040
to us, the pass to the center, Rezzi had the flip to keep up.

03:51:55.040 --> 03:51:57.320
That was quite the play from Fisher.

03:51:57.320 --> 03:51:59.440
They sent it all the way the opposite half.

03:51:59.440 --> 03:52:00.800
I think Justice ended up taking boost

03:52:00.800 --> 03:52:02.240
in the opposite corner because they were like,

03:52:02.240 --> 03:52:04.600
look, hold on, or otherwise we're getting scored on.

03:52:04.600 --> 03:52:07.320
Boost starvation, again, been a huge factor for Concord

03:52:07.320 --> 03:52:08.400
throughout this entire game.

03:52:08.400 --> 03:52:10.640
So it's really Fisher having to take those moments

03:52:10.640 --> 03:52:11.960
where they can find the reprieve,

03:52:11.960 --> 03:52:13.800
grab some boost, and get ready to survive

03:52:13.800 --> 03:52:16.200
because here comes even more offense.

03:52:16.200 --> 03:52:18.200
90 seconds to go here, it feels like Concord

03:52:18.200 --> 03:52:20.760
or by four in the driver's seat.

03:52:20.760 --> 03:52:23.280
Mm, but with the ball is Royaleis.

03:52:23.280 --> 03:52:25.320
Says Ivan, picks up the 50th,

03:52:25.320 --> 03:52:26.800
and Rezi's waiting for boost.

03:52:26.800 --> 03:52:28.240
This one right down in front,

03:52:28.240 --> 03:52:29.680
Justice picks up the touch,

03:52:29.680 --> 03:52:30.960
sends it out to Royaleis.

03:52:30.960 --> 03:52:31.920
That's the hot hand.

03:52:31.920 --> 03:52:33.360
That's who you wanna have the ball.

03:52:33.360 --> 03:52:35.080
Justice up there.

03:52:35.080 --> 03:52:36.720
High altitudes, foot brief set,

03:52:36.720 --> 03:52:37.960
off of the backboard,

03:52:37.960 --> 03:52:39.480
tapped in by Justice,

03:52:39.480 --> 03:52:41.720
off the post, and out.

03:52:41.720 --> 03:52:43.840
Fisher is so close,

03:52:43.840 --> 03:52:46.440
yet so, so far away.

03:52:48.200 --> 03:52:51.140
I said that Fisher had to look out for one thing. You know what it was?

03:52:51.140 --> 03:52:53.140
He overcame that.

03:52:53.140 --> 03:52:55.140
Yeah, yeah.

03:52:55.140 --> 03:52:57.140
I, I hate this.

03:52:57.140 --> 03:53:00.640
Fisher is playing so well though, like every other part of the game is great.

03:53:00.640 --> 03:53:02.140
Fantastic defense.

03:53:02.140 --> 03:53:05.840
Recognizing the awareness of when they're getting starved so they can get out of the situation,

03:53:05.840 --> 03:53:11.240
remove themselves from those awkward moments and still one thing remains the same.

03:53:11.240 --> 03:53:13.540
Fisher have to be careful in moments like that.

03:53:13.540 --> 03:53:17.540
Unfortunately, I think that's going to be the nail in the coffin for this series.

03:53:17.540 --> 03:53:20.260
The one thing remains the same as well.

03:53:20.260 --> 03:53:23.220
It's that Concord are looking unbeatable,

03:53:23.220 --> 03:53:26.380
but on point game, it's not something

03:53:26.380 --> 03:53:28.140
to feel so comfortable about, especially

03:53:28.140 --> 03:53:30.900
as crispy as the lone man on the goal line,

03:53:30.900 --> 03:53:31.780
making the save.

03:53:31.780 --> 03:53:32.860
He's got a teammate behind him.

03:53:32.860 --> 03:53:34.420
Does he want to flick it up for Rezzi?

03:53:34.420 --> 03:53:36.660
Rezzi, very patient on this approach.

03:53:36.660 --> 03:53:39.860
No reason really to commit everything for it.

03:53:39.860 --> 03:53:42.260
He'll get the next one to be called to a play.

03:53:42.260 --> 03:53:46.500
30 seconds and a dream remains for Fisher.

03:53:46.500 --> 03:53:48.860
That's a little awkward though. No challenge out of midfield.

03:53:48.860 --> 03:53:50.660
I mean, Ivan can't do much with that.

03:53:50.660 --> 03:53:52.260
And I think he actually bumped into his teammate.

03:53:52.260 --> 03:53:55.000
Unfortunate scenarios there is there was a chance at a breakaway,

03:53:55.000 --> 03:53:57.220
but instead, he'll get sent back into their own half,

03:53:57.220 --> 03:53:58.660
and we'll have to do it again.

03:53:58.660 --> 03:53:59.660
Ten seconds to play.

03:53:59.660 --> 03:54:01.600
If a goal found here, it's going to be the end,

03:54:01.600 --> 03:54:03.100
but instead, just us.

03:54:03.100 --> 03:54:04.420
Loyalist out center.

03:54:04.420 --> 03:54:05.700
We get to pass off to him.

03:54:05.700 --> 03:54:06.460
He can.

03:54:06.460 --> 03:54:08.900
Where's the third man, Ivan Lurking?

03:54:08.900 --> 03:54:09.980
Can't keep it alive.

03:54:09.980 --> 03:54:11.500
And Chris Biel sent it to midfield.

03:54:11.500 --> 03:54:14.420
This is going to be a full field effort for Roy Allison.

03:54:14.420 --> 03:54:16.060
That is not how you want to start it off.

03:54:16.060 --> 03:54:20.300
Awkward touch, just as does get to it, and then back to his own touch!

03:54:20.300 --> 03:54:21.580
Not quite!

03:54:21.580 --> 03:54:27.740
Concord, let it hit the ground, and indeed will take the win, 3-1 in the series, and 2-0 on the day.

03:54:27.740 --> 03:54:35.580
Not quite is a good way to summarize it, because it was nearly enough Fisher carve out a win,

03:54:35.580 --> 03:54:40.620
as everything that lost today did. We didn't have a single sweep on the docking,

03:54:40.620 --> 03:54:51.460
But I am take that good day like Concord are thinking it's a great day for them because other than the obstacle that they had to adapt after the Fisher loss

03:54:52.020 --> 03:54:56.180
They woke up in their first match for the reverse sweep and never look back

03:54:56.820 --> 03:55:00.620
Yeah, this was as soon as they take the brakes off. They just kind of start flying

03:55:00.620 --> 03:55:03.180
It truly is just sorting from there on out

03:55:03.540 --> 03:55:05.380
Concord really just kind of proving that again

03:55:05.380 --> 03:55:08.940
It's not necessarily about an individual because they can make up for each other crispy

03:55:08.940 --> 03:55:12.560
I'm sorry, but I got to call you out for under. Yeah, that's that come on man. Come on now

03:55:12.560 --> 03:55:17.660
Good thing for him though, is he makes a Rezzi and Samas. So yeah, you don't really need to be all too concerned here

03:55:17.660 --> 03:55:23.580
And again, this is what makes Concord so dangerous is that look notice respect to G.O.X. Big fan of Mr

03:55:23.580 --> 03:55:29.100
Thanos himself, but unfortunately occasionally be a bit inconsistent and everybody kind of said that it's like alright

03:55:29.100 --> 03:55:33.200
Well, if they get a new third nobody stopping crispy and Samas already what happens when they get oh

03:55:33.200 --> 03:55:37.540
Oh, it's Rezzi? Well, you got Rezzi a guy who's getting top 8s in RLCS and EU

03:55:37.540 --> 03:55:42.700
Okay, cool. So they're never losing again. And that's kind of what it's looking like, man. What are they, 8-0 now?

03:55:43.060 --> 03:55:50.980
Yes, yes, 8-0 and they were 18-4 in games to start the day. So this brings them to

03:55:52.180 --> 03:55:54.180
24 and

03:55:54.500 --> 03:55:55.700
7.

03:55:55.700 --> 03:55:58.500
Yep, yep. That's Gatsby. Over three times as many wins.

03:56:00.380 --> 03:56:04.700
So pretty overpowering display Northwood if they gather two wins

03:56:04.700 --> 03:56:09.500
They might have them still a little bit better, but they'll have to carve those away much like Concord did

03:56:09.500 --> 03:56:16.300
What a great match for them to come off of and I'm curious past how the desk thinks about how all this went down

03:56:18.300 --> 03:56:24.380
Well that was interesting right it didn't feel like they still is a top gear you can imagine that for team has been

03:56:24.620 --> 03:56:31.580
So dominant, but hey dubs or dubs or dubs you walk away double duty shift on stream got a way to get both wins

03:56:31.580 --> 03:56:33.700
and everything was coming up for them.

03:56:33.700 --> 03:56:35.660
Chicks, let me ask you, if you're conquering right now,

03:56:35.660 --> 03:56:38.100
are you celebrating or you have to go back to the drawing board

03:56:38.100 --> 03:56:40.940
to get some of those tweaks for the next week?

03:56:40.940 --> 03:56:43.580
You know, as a coach mindset,

03:56:43.580 --> 03:56:46.740
I think always going through looking at how to tweak up,

03:56:46.740 --> 03:56:48.380
but what do I think they're actually,

03:56:48.380 --> 03:56:49.500
they're probably celebrating.

03:56:49.500 --> 03:56:52.820
Like, totally, they're 100% celebrating right now.

03:56:52.820 --> 03:56:54.580
They're feeling good.

03:56:54.580 --> 03:56:56.980
I think obviously the test is gonna be

03:56:56.980 --> 03:56:58.580
how they match up against Northwood.

03:56:58.580 --> 03:57:02.020
There has to be someone at number one.

03:57:02.020 --> 03:57:04.900
That's the only other team that's undefeated right now.

03:57:04.900 --> 03:57:07.780
That is going to be the true test between those two.

03:57:07.780 --> 03:57:10.060
So if they had their eyes on somebody,

03:57:10.060 --> 03:57:13.540
you will have to prep for that matchup no matter what.

03:57:13.540 --> 03:57:16.180
Professor Pyro today, I'm gonna ask you for a grade here.

03:57:16.180 --> 03:57:18.300
You told me to keep an eyes out for Roy Alice.

03:57:18.300 --> 03:57:20.020
If you had to give them a little grade,

03:57:20.020 --> 03:57:21.820
what would it be here today?

03:57:21.820 --> 03:57:24.540
Uh, an effort is in A.

03:57:24.540 --> 03:57:27.860
I mean, Roy Alice, it feels like he put everything out

03:57:27.860 --> 03:57:31.820
on the field, there was nothing left from what we saw from them today.

03:57:31.820 --> 03:57:36.620
You could tell he's a player that wants it, but there's a benchmark

03:57:36.620 --> 03:57:40.060
through this league play, the best in the collegiate space.

03:57:40.060 --> 03:57:42.500
And sometimes everything isn't enough.

03:57:42.700 --> 03:57:47.180
I'm going to give him an A, but they got to put in just a tinge more, I guess,

03:57:47.180 --> 03:57:49.300
to get that plus. Oh, wow.

03:57:49.300 --> 03:57:50.620
I mean, a plus for Pirate.

03:57:50.620 --> 03:57:53.060
Yeah, I mean, that's the thing they're inattainable, you know.

03:57:53.780 --> 03:57:55.300
Bass, you were there.

03:57:55.300 --> 03:57:55.820
You were in the booth.

03:57:55.820 --> 03:57:56.700
You're watching it happen.

03:57:56.700 --> 03:57:58.580
Some of those goals are absolutely nutty, man.

03:57:58.580 --> 03:58:01.420
I mean, the idea of being creative

03:58:01.420 --> 03:58:02.980
and creating your own destiny in office

03:58:02.980 --> 03:58:05.300
is something that really puts elite teams away

03:58:05.300 --> 03:58:07.540
from the great teams in CRL.

03:58:07.540 --> 03:58:08.900
You're watching that, you're a fisher,

03:58:08.900 --> 03:58:10.820
you took the L today, what can you build on

03:58:10.820 --> 03:58:13.340
for the next quarter on to get yourself to that level?

03:58:13.340 --> 03:58:14.780
I think you can recognize the fact

03:58:14.780 --> 03:58:16.060
that no disrespect to Adam,

03:58:16.060 --> 03:58:18.340
but this is the roster they need to go with going forward.

03:58:18.340 --> 03:58:20.260
I think that Adam has had some inconsistencies

03:58:20.260 --> 03:58:21.100
throughout the semester

03:58:21.100 --> 03:58:22.780
and I don't necessarily know if it's him

03:58:22.780 --> 03:58:23.780
or the team's play style,

03:58:23.780 --> 03:58:25.460
just not telling how it's supposed to,

03:58:25.460 --> 03:58:27.580
But this is why they used Ivan last semester, man.

03:58:27.580 --> 03:58:28.700
He was fantastic.

03:58:28.700 --> 03:58:30.220
He was fantastic throughout the entire time.

03:58:30.220 --> 03:58:32.300
I think the only reason they didn't start the semester

03:58:32.300 --> 03:58:34.460
with the same roster was because they were having some issues

03:58:34.460 --> 03:58:36.300
with players not getting into the States in time,

03:58:36.300 --> 03:58:38.580
other players not getting into the States,

03:58:38.580 --> 03:58:40.140
but they weren't sure if they were comfortable with that.

03:58:40.140 --> 03:58:41.580
It was a whole lot of mess.

03:58:41.580 --> 03:58:43.140
I just hope that they can stick with this going forward.

03:58:43.140 --> 03:58:44.540
So I really do like this three-man.

03:58:44.540 --> 03:58:46.420
If Adam, for some reason, feels like the better fit,

03:58:46.420 --> 03:58:49.020
sure, but they've proven they can contend.

03:58:49.020 --> 03:58:52.180
Getting even a win off of Concord is pretty significant.

03:58:52.180 --> 03:58:54.060
Now, there's some time to really work out

03:58:54.060 --> 03:58:56.380
how we can approve the Fisher idea,

03:58:56.380 --> 03:58:58.140
whether it is the defense or the offense.

03:58:58.140 --> 03:58:59.860
But in the meantime, let's take a moment

03:58:59.860 --> 03:59:01.740
and talk with Concord and some of us

03:59:01.740 --> 03:59:03.100
is actually waiting on the line to be part

03:59:03.100 --> 03:59:05.220
of the post match interview.

03:59:05.220 --> 03:59:06.780
A lot of things to talk about this,

03:59:06.780 --> 03:59:09.020
go around two dubs on the day.

03:59:09.020 --> 03:59:11.180
First of all, congratulations on an order.

03:59:11.180 --> 03:59:12.020
Thank you, Matt.

03:59:12.020 --> 03:59:12.860
Feels good.

03:59:12.860 --> 03:59:13.700
Shout out to our head coach for showing up

03:59:13.700 --> 03:59:15.820
an hour and a half late.

03:59:15.820 --> 03:59:16.780
Oh, dang, all right.

03:59:16.780 --> 03:59:17.620
Shout out to head coach.

03:59:17.620 --> 03:59:19.540
I don't have late in the shadows.

03:59:19.540 --> 03:59:21.220
Peace, final boss energy, right?

03:59:21.220 --> 03:59:22.660
I don't know.

03:59:22.660 --> 03:59:25.500
Let's talk about the two dubs man. This one was a little bit different

03:59:25.500 --> 03:59:27.580
You said you had to wake up in the last one

03:59:27.580 --> 03:59:32.060
This one was kind of a little bit inverse walk me through that you had to walk away and assess

03:59:32.060 --> 03:59:34.940
How'd you attach this W against fish? What would you say?

03:59:35.500 --> 03:59:38.540
Our main goal was basically just to like hit the ball and

03:59:39.180 --> 03:59:42.940
Justice scored his end touch which was probably the only goal that they scored that they earned

03:59:43.500 --> 03:59:47.660
The rest we were still sleeping. So we need to just we need to wake up. We just need to wake up

03:59:47.660 --> 03:59:50.660
Okay, I got a question for you in particular, sir.

03:59:50.660 --> 03:59:53.160
I mean, I felt like this series was a bit more aggressive.

03:59:53.160 --> 03:59:55.660
Was it just kind of something you wanted to do intentionally,

03:59:55.660 --> 03:59:57.660
or did you saw a bit more read

03:59:57.660 --> 03:59:59.660
when it comes to understanding Fizzler's attack?

03:59:59.660 --> 04:00:02.660
I think it is, like, more when we played the first series,

04:00:02.660 --> 04:00:03.660
we were a bit more warmed up,

04:00:03.660 --> 04:00:06.660
so we actually just played like a normal series a little bit,

04:00:06.660 --> 04:00:08.660
but we still have a lot to work on,

04:00:08.660 --> 04:00:10.660
because we can't keep playing like that.

04:00:10.660 --> 04:00:13.660
You know, I asked the desk this,

04:00:13.660 --> 04:00:14.660
but I'm actually talking to you guys.

04:00:14.660 --> 04:00:16.660
You celebrate after wins, or did you say,

04:00:16.660 --> 04:00:20.140
you know what now he must be serious and go study or something we'll head it

04:00:20.140 --> 04:00:24.220
tomorrow. I mean if you if you watch the first series and our reactions we were

04:00:24.220 --> 04:00:27.900
excited for Cumberland you know a good team so we had to celebrate the way we

04:00:27.900 --> 04:00:36.460
did you know we it was like winning worlds that's how it felt. Well I wouldn't know I mean I'm just guessing you know.

04:00:36.460 --> 04:00:40.980
As we wind this down though I mean look top of the rock looking at everyone

04:00:40.980 --> 04:00:44.380
coming after you target to your back man tell me about the mental as you

04:00:44.380 --> 04:00:49.780
head to the back half of the semester. I mean it's like like Reggie said there's

04:00:49.780 --> 04:00:53.340
only two teams north of America that everyone else is kind of kind of mid

04:00:53.340 --> 04:00:58.900
can't lie I mean maybe they'll review but though you just lost the ball state

04:00:58.900 --> 04:01:04.220
so it's just north of America we have to worry about. I just love the fact it's

04:01:04.220 --> 04:01:07.340
a tunnel this year when it comes to success man. I've been here man sound

04:01:07.340 --> 04:01:11.940
off now's the time to say whatever's on your mind. Thanks everyone watching you

04:01:11.940 --> 04:01:16.020
appreciate all the love support. I'm sure we are definitely the most liked team in

04:01:16.020 --> 04:01:21.420
CRL. So I'd shout to our head coach for showing my play. It's so modest dude,

04:01:21.420 --> 04:01:27.740
thanks so much man. Enjoy or not enjoy the rest of your afternoon. Take care. Man, man, man,

04:01:27.740 --> 04:01:33.340
already an action-packed edition of CRL and that was an interesting interview,

04:01:33.340 --> 04:01:36.860
best. Let me ask you a question. I just love the vibes happening from that

04:01:36.860 --> 04:01:40.300
camp, man. What do you think of that? I think this is exactly why Concord are

04:01:40.300 --> 04:01:43.740
the best even CRL like yeah at the end of the day it's one thing to be dominant

04:01:43.740 --> 04:01:46.740
and to get wins like this it's another thing to get wins like that and go yeah

04:01:46.740 --> 04:01:50.380
what about it and then just kind of keep on going with your day that is the

04:01:50.380 --> 04:01:54.020
Concord mentality and this is what has made them so terrifying is that again

04:01:54.020 --> 04:01:57.300
last semester the only reason they weren't doing well is because they had

04:01:57.300 --> 04:02:01.020
internet issues outside of that there was never a question of this team was

04:02:01.020 --> 04:02:04.140
gonna be at the top of CRL the fact that they picked up an even better

04:02:04.140 --> 04:02:08.780
third and are now doing this I still don't get that crispy save yeah you're

04:02:08.780 --> 04:02:11.880
allowed to have the vibe to be high, man. I don't agree with you. This is not as good

04:02:11.880 --> 04:02:15.760
as winning worlds, but you know, I guess we can figure that out another day.

04:02:15.760 --> 04:02:20.260
You know what? I have a hot, spicy take that maybe if you're a coach here, why is it late?

04:02:20.260 --> 04:02:27.500
You get two shot eyes. So why not all the time? Byro, man. Like we had said both teams

04:02:27.500 --> 04:02:31.860
today were pulling double duty and both of them got the dub. So can we finally put

04:02:31.860 --> 04:02:37.900
that rumor that being on stream twice is a debuff? Keep it up for the rest.

04:02:37.900 --> 04:02:40.300
We can put that rumor away, sure.

04:02:40.300 --> 04:02:43.100
I'm not sure about these replays with the ambassador

04:02:43.100 --> 04:02:47.420
of the camera and our reactions through the plays,

04:02:47.420 --> 04:02:50.340
but why not put us on the screen?

04:02:50.340 --> 04:02:51.940
Because at the end of the day,

04:02:51.940 --> 04:02:54.620
when you look at some of the desk sweeps we had,

04:02:54.620 --> 04:02:56.020
it didn't work out.

04:02:56.020 --> 04:02:58.900
I think maybe that's something we can't put to bed,

04:02:58.900 --> 04:03:01.620
is beware of the desk sweep.

04:03:01.620 --> 04:03:03.140
You gotta stop bringing up old stuff.

04:03:03.140 --> 04:03:04.580
That's ancient history, man.

04:03:04.580 --> 04:03:06.380
I don't know what time that happened for you,

04:03:06.380 --> 04:03:09.020
But let's take a look at today's results here.

04:03:09.020 --> 04:03:11.660
Again, if you were just getting on the stream,

04:03:11.660 --> 04:03:15.540
you missed an action-hacked slate of games, Jicks.

04:03:15.540 --> 04:03:18.260
So what was one result that surprised you the most?

04:03:20.580 --> 04:03:24.620
I think obviously none shocked me

04:03:24.620 --> 04:03:27.420
because you know what?

04:03:27.420 --> 04:03:31.820
Okay, Concord should not have let five games slip

04:03:31.820 --> 04:03:32.900
to Cumberland.

04:03:32.900 --> 04:03:34.380
We all said that earlier.

04:03:34.380 --> 04:03:36.340
That shouldn't be the thing.

04:03:36.340 --> 04:03:41.340
ball state winning against WVU shows a WVU.

04:03:42.940 --> 04:03:44.780
I don't know, maybe, I don't know.

04:03:44.780 --> 04:03:48.700
These four roster teams, not a good idea.

04:03:48.700 --> 04:03:50.220
That's all I'm gonna say.

04:03:50.220 --> 04:03:52.820
Oh wait, you can't drop the mic and walk up.

04:03:52.820 --> 04:03:54.900
Come back here, what do you mean?

04:03:54.900 --> 04:03:59.700
No, no, I'm not gonna go into explaining extra detail

04:03:59.700 --> 04:04:02.980
but the teams that can't figure out their roster

04:04:02.980 --> 04:04:05.140
and have four different people

04:04:05.140 --> 04:04:06.700
and keep switching things up.

04:04:06.700 --> 04:04:08.940
They're not doing too hot.

04:04:08.940 --> 04:04:11.380
Well, I think we have to take a look at our standings

04:04:11.380 --> 04:04:12.220
after today.

04:04:12.220 --> 04:04:14.180
And I want everyone to chime in on this one.

04:04:14.180 --> 04:04:16.180
Take a look at the standings of CRL

04:04:16.180 --> 04:04:18.580
after we have our results.

04:04:18.580 --> 04:04:19.620
We've got to come over there.

04:04:19.620 --> 04:04:20.780
Let me start with you, pass.

04:04:20.780 --> 04:04:23.060
Looking at top four, looking at the bottom,

04:04:23.060 --> 04:04:24.900
I mean, it's kind of do or die time

04:04:24.900 --> 04:04:27.180
for a lot of teams in the mix.

04:04:27.180 --> 04:04:28.580
This is what we keep talking about,

04:04:28.580 --> 04:04:29.740
is that as much as you might think,

04:04:29.740 --> 04:04:31.540
oh, I've got the whole semester to figure it out.

04:04:31.540 --> 04:04:32.900
No, you don't.

04:04:32.900 --> 04:04:38.500
If the bar has always been get 10 wins and you got a decent chance of making it through

04:04:39.060 --> 04:04:43.300
Anything less than that and you are likely getting eliminated and playing in the LCFU

04:04:43.540 --> 04:04:48.260
And there are some teams that are getting close to 10 wins being their maximum amount of wins

04:04:48.260 --> 04:04:49.780
And those are good teams too

04:04:49.780 --> 04:04:56.020
West Virginia loses one more match and that is their maximum record for the semester at 10 and 5 their max right now

04:04:56.100 --> 04:04:57.940
Is 11 and 4

04:04:57.940 --> 04:05:03.220
So it's very clear that you need to make sure you are consistent throughout the entire semester.

04:05:03.220 --> 04:05:05.860
Another team that I have to point out, we didn't really talk about them here today,

04:05:05.860 --> 04:05:11.540
but I am also concerned about back-to-back CRO playoff participants,

04:05:11.540 --> 04:05:13.780
Winthrop are at 4-in-4 now.

04:05:13.780 --> 04:05:18.900
So again, top 4 makes sense here with Concord, Northwood, Maryville, and Paul State's a little odd.

04:05:18.900 --> 04:05:22.660
I think that it's probably going to be between M&Bailer, but not seeing West Virginia,

04:05:22.660 --> 04:05:27.380
not seeing Winthrop, not seeing Fisher in the conversation for top 4 is bizarre.

04:05:27.380 --> 04:05:33.780
Yeah, with Winthrop had the case of like, okay, they lost those first three, it's okay, they're fine now.

04:05:34.340 --> 04:05:39.140
Now they've added a fourth loss to the tally. So I agree. It gets a little worrying.

04:05:39.780 --> 04:05:44.260
For the rest of these teams outside of the top three, you're kind of hoping there's some chip damage

04:05:44.260 --> 04:05:51.220
to teams like Maryville and maybe hopefully Northwood because at a certain point, it's gonna be

04:05:51.220 --> 04:05:59.420
13 teams fighting for one spot to get to that championship and Ball State you managed to replace West Virginia today

04:05:59.420 --> 04:06:02.180
I expect that spot to be fluid over time

04:06:08.020 --> 04:06:11.060
The only two that have a lock down or concord in Northwood

04:06:11.780 --> 04:06:17.540
Honestly, you you better be ready for a dogfight between third and 10th really

04:06:18.940 --> 04:06:20.060
12

04:06:20.060 --> 04:06:24.260
I mean yeah, it's gonna be tough last two spots

04:06:24.260 --> 04:06:28.860
So you better be ready to make the most out of the back half of your season

04:06:28.860 --> 04:06:34.340
And if you don't clinch that top four get ready for that last chance qualifier. Oh, yeah

04:06:34.340 --> 04:06:39.580
I just many paths in that last chance qualifier, you know what as we talked about all the way to get there

04:06:39.620 --> 04:06:42.980
You have to give a normal at 3v3 open qualifiers

04:06:43.180 --> 04:06:49.400
The three open quarter restriction closes Tuesday. That's this Tuesday September 29th at 1 p.m. Eastern

04:06:49.400 --> 04:06:54.720
can't stress that enough 1 p.m. Eastern and games we played on October 3rd at

04:06:54.720 --> 04:07:00.700
1 p.m. Eastern as well and make sure you tap in to the CRL community as

04:07:00.700 --> 04:07:05.000
community trees if you're going about really putting down giving you a front

04:07:05.000 --> 04:07:09.800
row seat to the action as well. Before we get out of here this week I

04:07:09.800 --> 04:07:13.400
want to go up and down one more time to test with some follow-ups on the day.

04:07:13.400 --> 04:07:18.480
First of all pass what is on your mind sir. I think that we are

04:07:18.480 --> 04:07:21.320
continuing to prove the narrative that this is the strongest semester of

04:07:21.320 --> 04:07:25.080
scurrell we have ever had but also simultaneously we are proving that if

04:07:25.080 --> 04:07:30.080
you do not come prepared you are not going to win but I I'm gonna save my

04:07:30.080 --> 04:07:33.720
conclusions till we get to the end of the semester but this is now I don't know

04:07:33.720 --> 04:07:38.520
the 15th semester in a row where he said four man rosters do not work

04:07:38.520 --> 04:07:43.240
you do like they don't want yeah I don't crazy thought that all the

04:07:43.240 --> 04:07:47.680
15 others that didn't work also now we're showing that these don't work

04:07:47.680 --> 04:07:50.840
So I'm not going to state that it's doom and gloom and it's over at this point.

04:07:50.840 --> 04:07:54.000
But like, dude, we got to see these teams figure out their rosters.

04:07:54.000 --> 04:07:56.760
I've had too many conversations with coaches being like, I promise

04:07:56.760 --> 04:07:59.600
this is where it comes together and it's just not doing so.

04:07:59.800 --> 04:08:02.360
There's a reason the top three teams are the top three teams.

04:08:03.120 --> 04:08:05.520
I got some questions, but look, we're only halfway through.

04:08:05.520 --> 04:08:07.080
So I don't want to make any conclusions yet.

04:08:07.080 --> 04:08:08.080
Wow, wow, wow.

04:08:08.080 --> 04:08:09.200
And you have to go around.

04:08:09.200 --> 04:08:10.640
Jigsaw fell in thought today, even.

04:08:11.960 --> 04:08:17.560
Oh, I mean, what a day to be in zero double headers for two teams.

04:08:17.680 --> 04:08:23.520
They do well in those said double headers so shout outs of course the ball stayed in concord

04:08:24.000 --> 04:08:30.960
Interesting to see how the bracket will continue to go through but yeah be prepared if you're playing your serial matches

04:08:30.960 --> 04:08:38.080
Well, they're not the double-hatter single-hatter be prepared to play because that game differential even in itself matters

04:08:38.920 --> 04:08:46.520
And well who give the final thoughts of the man with a Hollywood star good looks and that platinum voice pyro jam self man

04:08:46.520 --> 04:08:52.520
what's going on. I mean, I'll take it. Thanks a lot. Listen, we've talked so much about the top four,

04:08:52.520 --> 04:08:58.600
but like we didn't mention too much about the bottom 12 and that's because it's scary to be down

04:08:58.600 --> 04:09:02.600
there. We don't know who's going to rise up, but it's even scarier because I want to give a shout

04:09:02.600 --> 04:09:08.200
out to the CRL Open teams that are doing so well. The top eight of those squads are going

04:09:08.200 --> 04:09:14.760
to be playing in the LCQ against the bottom 12 of the league play. They won those four remaining

04:09:14.760 --> 04:09:21.000
spots is going to happen at the LCQ, so we play teams better, better straightened up now because

04:09:21.000 --> 04:09:26.760
it's not going to get any easier. And lastly, thank you so much everybody. It's been an honor to

04:09:26.760 --> 04:09:32.040
be welcomed as a special guest today. Yeah, we gotta get you back sometime in the future.

04:09:32.040 --> 04:09:37.400
Just to see how we're back here next week at the same time and some advice for life.

04:09:37.400 --> 04:09:42.040
I learned from Rocket League sometimes, just kind of break rotations. See you next Sunday.

04:09:42.040 --> 04:09:44.040
Okay, thanks so much for your name.

04:11:42.040 --> 04:11:45.040
to the way of some time

04:11:46.040 --> 04:11:51.040
Trying to repent before you sin

04:11:52.040 --> 04:11:57.040
It's like getting up before you begin

04:11:58.040 --> 04:12:02.040
Stronger, you can sin, you never lie

04:12:02.040 --> 04:12:05.040
But stronger, you can never run

04:12:05.040 --> 04:12:08.040
You can see where I fly

04:13:38.040 --> 04:13:43.040
Let's go out of the door

04:13:43.040 --> 04:13:48.040
Let's go out of the door

04:13:48.040 --> 04:13:51.040
Into the light now

04:13:51.040 --> 04:13:56.040
Let's go out of the door

04:13:56.040 --> 04:14:04.040
Out of the door

04:14:38.040 --> 04:14:48.040
Let's go high, let's go high Let's go high, let's go high

04:14:48.040 --> 04:14:51.040
Shouldn't you like it now?

04:15:21.040 --> 04:15:25.040
And lost in the snow, but that's fine

04:15:28.040 --> 04:15:32.040
And lost in the snow, but that's fine

04:15:41.040 --> 04:15:43.040
Into the light now

04:16:51.040 --> 04:16:58.040
the

04:16:58.040 --> 04:17:01.040
the

04:17:01.040 --> 04:17:04.040
the

04:17:04.040 --> 04:17:07.040
the

04:17:07.040 --> 04:17:10.040
the

04:17:10.040 --> 04:17:13.040
the

04:17:13.040 --> 04:17:16.040
the

04:17:16.040 --> 04:17:19.040
the

04:17:19.040 --> 04:17:33.040
Welcome to the end of the fight.

04:18:19.040 --> 04:18:41.040
Welcome to the end of the fight.

04:19:41.040 --> 04:20:04.040
Welcome to the end of the fight.

04:20:34.040 --> 04:20:36.040
