Both the mens and womens soccer teams are in the Sweet Sixteen — and both play the #1 seed next.
The women play FSU in about 1 hour and the men play Kentucky in a few days.
I like the Mens chances better. I don’t think Kentucky was deserving of the top seed. The SEC doesn’t play mens soccer so Kentucky played in the Sun Belt conference this year. To me that makes their record suspect. Not exactly an ACC level of competition. Hopefully, a few more days will help Jacquesson recover. He was a shell of his old self against Akron.
Technically, I believe Alabama is the #1 overall seed among the women. But FSU is the defending champions and playing in the ACC, which has 6 teams in the 16 teams left. The SEC. has 3. I don’t think Alabama deserved the top seed over them.
We played FSU very tough in Pittsburgh earlier this year. But, this match is in Talahassee it’s hard to see the women winning it. But, they made it this far with their best player out for the season and upsets do happen.
