Meram again. 3-0 Michigan with under 10 minutes to play. Elite 8 here we come.
Meram with the third goal! Thought he had subbed out, but I guess I misheard the announcers. In any case, we're through to the elite 8 for sure now! The greatest season in the young history of Michigan soccer will continue for another day!
Now with 100% less South Bend, 100% more Washington DC.
That was a dirty elbow to the head by SC. How it was only a yellow card I have no idea. Need to get out of this game w/ no injuries and no more cards...

Goal SC, makes it 3-1. 6:45 to go in the match. No need to get sloppy here, boys!
Now with 100% less South Bend, 100% more Washington DC.
Just hoping for no injuries or cards now.
As good as we are we have a bunch of prima donnas on our team. It makes me sick really. Just play.
All in and always in
Welcome to soccer. After watching alot of soccer recently (Got into the WC, watched alot of EPL recently, and now Michigan quite a bit), its just part of the gamesmanship. Just like there is an unnecessary amount of celebrating after nearly every play in football.
Our toils obscure an' a' that,
The rank is but the guinea's stamp,
The man's the gowd for a' that.
Hope Penn St can pull it out against Maryland. Would love to go to the Elite 8 game.

Did the video go out for anyone else? I've just got the liveblog & this thread now for the final moments.

Conked out for me as well.

Any of you guys ever have a Prof. Andy Markovits from the German department? I just saw him posting on the Mgoblue.com liveblog!
Now with 100% less South Bend, 100% more Washington DC.
Is he still there? I had him his first year teaching at Michigan for the Sports and Society class and the class was pretty meh.
in the NCAA tournament?

Pretty sure it is. Just our third trip to the Sweet 16 ever - since the program only went D-I/varsity ten years ago.
Edit: I stand corrected (see below)

The 2003 team set the bar by making the Elite 8. Men's soccer became a varsity sport at Michigan only 11 years ago. This ties the furthest that our soccer team has ever advanced.
Way to go Blue, on to the Elite 8. Here's hoping the other four Big Ten teams can also keep it going, so we can host Penn State next weekend.
Thanks for the link - it was great.!
Wolverine Nation Unite!
Big Ten champs & a trip to the elite 8! What a season for the young program, and we're not done yet!

Really wish I could watch the Akron-Indiana match right now...
Anybody have a final from the other game in Michigan's bracket?
Maryland-PSU still scoreless with just over ten minutes ot play in regulation
MSU lost to UNC in PKs 1-1(4-5) after giving up the tying goal in the 90th minute.
Akron took down Indiana 2-1.
OSU and Lousiville set to kickoff in a few minutes.
...just scored with 2 min remaining. 1-0 Terrapins. Looks like the game next week will be in College Park.

It was just a matter of time. It seems like the whole second half has been played on the Penn State side of the field. Shots are 21-10 Maryland as well.
EEB c/o 2014
...just went final. 1-0 Maryland.
