ccmanlb...whats your take on Pepperdine? Think they have a shot at 49ers? You didn’t ask me, but wanted to weigh in. I don’t think Pep has the balanced attack needed. They are weak in the middle and as much as I love Dyer as a teammate and player and really believe in his ability, he’s not that dynamic, quick twitch Libero like a Worsley. Mullahey has worked hard on his game, but he is predictable and lacks creativity and the ability to set long across the grain. In short, Pep asks too much from too few (Wieczorek, Wexter and Denmark) to take the Natty Championship. |

I have only watched bits of two matches
They have a legit stud. So yeah they have a shot
The interesting thing is the Beach and the 'Dine haven't played since the big west started mvb 2 years ago
Plus, in the ncaa s, serve receive can get skewed in any one match
That s why any one of USC Lewis haw LB pepper could make the finals, even if haw and LB are likely favorites

Imagine the outcry IF Hawaii and LB aren't in the Finals.
Say...a Princeton Vs Lewis Final!!!

Hawai’i vs. Barton. Watching another Hawai’i / Long Beach could be too stressful. 😉

I don't think Beach would mind getting another shot vs. USC. that match-up would not be short of any motivation for the Beach

Dating back to 2005, pepp seemed to have had pin heavy offense.
Pepps offense I recall: John Parfitt, John Meyer, Sean Rooney at pins when they win NC. They did have Andy Hein and Hulse, but it was a three horse offense. Then they had Paul Carroll era with supporting casts like JD, Corey Riecks, and Matt McKee-again pin heavy. Maurice Torres, Joshua Tyler, Parker Kalmback, Matt Tarantino were other pin guys i remember. On middle side, i don’t remember too much - Tom Calmody, Rodney Santos, older Gaudino, Matt Polluck... Tyler Jane, and maybe Mark Hulse as a setter converted to middle. This year’s team is mature and it may take down Long Beach. We shall see.

If its not Hawaii vs Long Beach, seating capacity at the Pyramid won't be a problem, especially if the 49ers aren't in the final. Would have been interesting if USC was on Long Beach's side of the bracket. I'm expecting a round 4 epic battle in the final.

Theu are just as on fire! both these teams have lost enough bad matches this year, I am sure neither will be looking past each other as they are well aware based on recent experience that they can dump matches to anyone. Lewis is the only team I have to upset in my bracket prediction. |

I wasn't going to pick Hawaii vs. Pepperdine. Last time Hawaii played Pepperdine for the NC, Hawaii won, but it was later taken away. Who knows what would happen this year considering what has already happened just in the last past days. I went with Hawaii vs. LBSU.
