Like the tops, but the White numbers on a solid white back did not show well on TV

 

Did not show nearly as well as the promo

Not a good pregame take by a recent UTSA soccer alumnae:

Curious to hear your viewpoints.  I watched on Espn+ earlier.   Skipped through some areas yet caught the game overall.  Some thoughts.

1. Celtic Uni - so clearly we had an advantage 🙂   however, I agree the back of jersey numbers were not clear on screen. 

2. UTSA had good ball control, particularly in the first half.  I bet time of possession was similar overall.  For NT, Brunell has nice touch on ball, passing.  I have always liked Roebuck toughness in midfield (signed a hat for me last year).    Ogden has been quite good - congrats on the 2nd goal !!  I foresee the team getting more comfortable with game, slowing down and passing more strategically into the box vs. longer kicks to one (maybe two) girls to take advantage of size or position.

3. Wesco and Brown clearly have some height advantage.  NT went more into defensive mode in 2nd half yet longer passes toward goal were clearly a mismatch at times for UTSA defense.

4. Defense.  Has always been a trademark for NT.  7 shutouts in 10 games this year is fantastic.  We have good depth this year.  Some solid hits throughout the game.  Hope injured girls from both teams are okay.

5. Tulsa.   They tied UTSA and SMU 0-0.  Should be a win for us, yet wont be easy.  They have scored well on lesser opponents.  We will need more offensive production - opportunities as we did with Rice to beat Tulsa yet our D should prove the diff.

6. Facilities.  After seeing other fields, even more I feel NT has to add seating for both teams, and geez, add fencing or something for balls hit out of play on far side of NT field !!  Track team could also take advantage of seating or ?? on far side of field.

There was as strong push last night to put that goal on SC T10.  If it happens, you'll see it today or tomorrow.

A goal and a shutout definitely should get you GK of the week! Congrats
