No TV and not going to South Bend so I will be looking at stats and Tweets like everyone else with little insight this weekend.

I should be at or watching every other game after this weekend besides PSU and the Big Ten Quarterfinal when I will be on a plane.

Let's do this! Bezerra in for Warr.

[ccgeneral 38,084]

Denver strikes early off a corner kick..

1-nil, 6'

[ccgeneral 38,084]

GOOOAAALLL! Black with the equalizer on a PK.

1-1, 28'

[ccgeneral 38,084]

Denver picks up a red card and will play the rest of the way down 1 man.

1-1, 49'

[Class of '66 Old Fart 84,118]

We need to move past our early tendency to play from behind.

OT

[ccgeneral 38,084]

Hoosiers win! Black with the golden goal.

2-1, 97'

[Class of '66 Old Fart 84,118]

Short and sweet OT win.  3rd in as many games.  Looks to be an excitng season.

[Aaron 4,268]

I had no more access then live stats and tweets like everyone else but I guess we can just call them the 'Heart Attack Hoosiers". Don't think you can win this way long term and we need to stop getting down early but the fact that this young team finds ways in the biggest of pressure moments says something. You would expect them to get better as year goes on and chemistry develops.

[Brass Cannon 24,291]

I would be very curious what the record for consecutive golden goal wins is. 

Being in 3 in a row has to be fairly rare let alone winning 3. I’m sure it’s been done but still curious. 

[ccgeneral 38,084]

We take on Seattle @ 4 pm.

Warr in for Bezerra.

[ccgeneral 38,084]

Scoreless @ half. Seattle leads 3-1 in shots. No shots on goal.

[ccgeneral 38,084]

OT again.

[Class of '66 Old Fart 84,118]

4 games; 4 OT's.  As that great philosopher Yogi Berra reportedly said,  "It's deja vu all over again." 

[ccgeneral 38,084]

Ugly game. Seattle leads 20-11 in fouls and have 5 yellows.

Maybe a couple of those guys could conveniently pick up a second yellow and watch the rest of the match from the sidelines.
