Hahahahahaha...you crack me up, Roofan. Gloat away, you deserve it. Listen "squirrel boy," enjoy your T.V.P. award for this week because I'll be facing you again this week. If you notice, we both picked the same matches, EXCEPT the Cal Baptist vs USC match, so one way or another, one of us will prevail (or go down in flames together). I enjoy your posts...why don't you list the EIVA & MIVA matches and I'll try to see how I do against you there? Later, MidWestern Dude.

That's what I am here for...to entertain the masses! ;D
I didn't happen to notice that we picked the same matches...can I change mine now!!! LOL
I will get the MIVA/EIVA matchups posted ASAP. Lets limit it to Lewis, Loyola, OSU, Ball State, IPFW, and Quincy in the MIVA and Penn State, Rutgers, and George Mason out East...fair?

Here is the MIVA this week....
Tuesday, Feb. 25 Indiana-Purdue at Ohio State St. Friday, Feb. 28 Ohio State at Loyola Quincy at Lewis Indiana-Purdue at Ball State Saturday, Mar. 1*Ohio State at Clarke Quincy at Loyola
In these I take
IPFW over OSU...Young Buckeyes are better, but too much experience from IP. Loyola over OSU...Only Lewis in the MIVA has been able to win at the toughest home court in the MIVA over the last 5 years. (IPFW, OSU, and Ball State haven't won there in YEARS) Lewis over Quincy...Quincy doesn't have the guns to take Lewis. Ball Sate over IPFW...Ball Stae needs to get back on track after losing to OSU last week. OSU whips Clark...NEXT! Loyola over Quincy...Hangover effect from big win over Buckeyes causes Loyola to drop a game, but not the match.
I'll get EIVA ASAP
Later

Lastly
PSU @ St. Francis PSU @ Rutgers-Newark PSU @ Concordia PSU @ Princeton Rutgers @ Princeton Mercyhurst @ Rutgers NYU @ George Mason Juniata @ Mason
PSU over St. Francis...Backups will win this. PSU over Rutgers...Young Scarlet Knights will get schooled. PSU over Concordia...Another walk in the park. PSU over Princeton...At least most Princeton kids will be smarter! Rutgers over Princeton...ALL Princeton kids are smarter than Rutgers! ;D Rutgers over Mercyhurst...MIVA doormat gets worked. Mason crushed NYU...Claney and Co. Take care of business. Mason over Juniata...Kulans and Powell have big matches.
Good Luck my Left Coast friend!!!
Later

Okay, my predictions are here. ANd look, I became a registered member!
BTW, I just wanna clear things up and be honest...last week vbcrusin stated that I came in second with 9 out of 12, but I went back and checked and I actually finished 8 out of 12, so there was a huge tie for second. I am not tryin to make vbcrusin look stupid, because I think we all know he isn't, I just wanted to be honest.
Anyway, here are mine for this week:
USC over Cal Baptist Long Beach over UCSD Pepperdine over UH UCLA over La Verne Pacific over UCSB Irvine over Alumni (I am predicting EVERYTHING) BYU over USC Pacific over CSUN Pepperdine over UH (HUGE crowd at Stan Sheriff ;D) UCSB over Stanford (when does Toppel come back, cuz that def changes my predictions) UCLA over Long Beach BYU over USC CSUN over Stanford UCLA over UCSD

Hahahaha Hey mvbdad...I was so busy listing the matches I forgot to post mine. I thought I did. Sorry. BYU will beat USC both matches Northridge over Pacific Northridge over Stanford Pepperdine "pineapple crushes" Hawaii (both nights) Long Beach over UCSD UCLA over Long Beach Pacific over UC Santa Barbara Stanford over UC Santa Barbara UCLA over UCSD Cal Baptist beats USC UCLA slaps LaVerne I'm big on Northridge right now as you can see. Watch out for "sneaky" UCLA who is coming back quietly. There are 13 posters who have giving me their choices. To vballah, I've rechecked your last week's record...I still get 9 wins - 3 losses for you, unless I recorded one of the matches wrong (a senior moment). Thanks for the honesty, but then again...NO ONE remembers who came in second...just FIRST and naturally LAST.

It seems Squirrel Boy (Roofan) from the MidWest is still gloating over his last week triumph over the West Coast Fans. He challenged me to post my choices for some MIVA & EIVA matches. I usually predict AFTER I see a team in action, however, I did a little research on the East & MidWest Conferences (Stats/rankings), so I'll give it a try (sight unseen) Okay, Roofan, here they are: EIVA PSU over St. Francis Rutgers-Newark beats PSU PSU over Concordia PSU beats Princeton Rutgers beats Princeton Rutgers beats Mercyhurst George Mason over NYU Juniata beats Mason MIVA Ohio State over Indiana-Purdue Ohio State beats Loyola Lewis over Quincy Ball State beats IPFW OSU floors Clark Loyola over Quincy Let me know how I fared, Roofan. Hugs, from your Left Coast Friend!

Hey vballah, I rechecked your posts on the thread and found that I credited you with a UCSD win over UC Santa Barbara...my error. Thanks for your honesty, BUT I have to question your choice...UCSD over anyone?

If I'm not mistaken Quincy beat Loyola at their place in 2001 and 3 out of their 6 starters played in that match. So dont count the QU boys out. Loyola is very good, but the Quincy middles are better and when all the young kids in the team play and pass well, they are a very hard team to play against.

Midwestboy
I didn't know Quincy had ever won there. I only knew that Ball State and Ohio State hadn't won there in a long time. I also know IPFW hadn't won there since Soto was on campus. Sorry about the slight.
Also, Quincy needs to finish in either A. Top 4 regular season or B. Semi-Finals of the MIVA tourney. Fact is...most of the country thinks there is no good volleyball happening east of Provo, so for an outsider like myself to start including Quincy in any serious MIVA talk they need to do A or B for me to respect them and keep tabs on who they have and have not beaten.
