Postby Woda on Thu Feb 21, 2008 2:50 pm

Now that BYU has lost, who can go undefeated this season?

There should be a none of the above choice.

I don't see anyone on the list going undefeated this season. I do know one thing.......who ever doesn't lose their last game in Dallas will be national champs.

I agree. For as tough as the top teams are and as often as they play each other, I don't think it's going to happen. But I think it would be nice for a team in this league to run the table and win it all every once in a while. That would be a great accomplishment and would deserve more than a belt buckle, maybe matching spurs?!

In response to the none of the above option, good point, but it does say "who can" not "who will" go undefeated.

That's why we need the none of the above option. Very unlikely that any team can do this. It has only happened once in our league as far as I can remember....SSU in 2002.

Right, but perhaps we don't think anyone can. I would vote for a none of the above because I think the top teams are so close, for someone to win every single game is highly unlikely.

After looking at their schedule, I really don't see why Chapman can't go undefeated. Unless BYU wasn't what every thought they were, which I doubt, Chapman has already beaten one of the best teams. I was under the naive impression that Chapman still had to play CSU, ASU, and Zona. But their only real tough game left is UCSB, and maybe Poly (still think they are underrated). But if they continue to play the way they have been and with the schedule they have left, no reason to think they don't have the best shot at going undefeated to the dance.

Ohhh laxfan25...once again you forget that the poll is for "Who can go undefeated this year?" and not "Who can go 18-1 this year?" Hahahaha

Chapman may still have to play ASU, UofA and other top WCLL programs once they get to the WCLL playoffs.

Nothing personal Tim. I am just worried for you guys that you will be playing your first game against a decent Stanford team who will be playing their seventh. Then a few days playing SB who is on their eight game, then a few days later play Chapman who is going to be on their sixth game. Please prove me wrong, I would love to see it, but that late start for you guys is going to be a huge disadvantage.
