Early in the season when we looked like an improved version of last year's
team, we had great production out of the midfield. Now? Non-existant. Briggs, Ticker, and Emery look like they've regressed. This places an extra burden on our attack and results in games like Penn where Steele puts the team on his back. I can't tell you how many awful, awful possessions we had in the Princeton game where we dodged from the wing with our midfield. We were forced underneath and took low-angle shots which were consistently saved. We need to bang it behind after the initial dodge, work it to the back side and re-dodge. We need 4+ goals out of this group to beat ND IMO. |

Key to beating ND? Production from Emery and Tucker -- UVAWahooo11 Tue May 15 2012 8:07:22 AM |
I'm more simplistic - need offense and defense show up in the 2nd half -- Vegas-hoo Tue May 15 2012 2:39:08 PM |

Its interesting to see our young guns struggle -- Zhoo Tue May 15 2012 11:25:35 AM |
I actually like White in the Midfield -- gborocav Tue May 15 2012 10:33:17 AM |
I think Emery and Tucker are best when they plant their feet and fire. -- 1moreUVAfan Tue May 15 2012 11:35:02 AM |
I can see that -- gborocav Tue May 15 2012 1:10:31 PM |
That all sounds good to me. I want a dodger for Christmas. -- 1moreUVAfan Tue May 15 2012 2:33:52 PM |

No matter what we need to take 1-2 outside shots -- Zhoo Tue May 15 2012 1:15:51 PM |
Agree on Emery and Tucker but Briggs is doing just fine. -- 1moreUVAfan Tue May 15 2012 10:15:23 AM |
I think Briggs is key for Sunday. -- Horsemouth Tue May 15 2012 1:05:27 PM |

I am baffled by Emery's slump. One point is He is going to his left too often. -- 1moreUVAfan Tue May 15 2012 6:48:13 PM |

The 1-4-1 is gumming up the middle -- Priffski Tue May 15 2012 9:50:22 AM |
