Hearing they said that he contacted the goalie’s stick on the shot, which seems like bullshit.

My first post! How are people watching the game tomorrow? Doesn't look like Youtube TV carries B!G+, looking like I may need to get a free trial for fubo?
Great question...I was planning on paying the ten dollars on BIG+ to watch it but would be curious to see if there are any alternatives. I can't imagine streameast would carry it.

Pay per view streaming is quite annoying. Glad we dispatched Ohio State, no team I hate losing to more than them.

Men would have won by 20 if the officiating had been less one sided. One flag against Mich (in the first three minutes) then SEVEN vs us, none on Mich. It was apparent they wanted to keep it close. Mich had plenty of knock downs that weren't called.

I’ll take a 19-9 win in a game where the refs tried to keep Michigan in it.

Hopefully that trend doesn’t continue. I’m skeptical, especially after some of the calls this year and the tournament snub two years ago.

I went to my first Lacrosse game and what a great experience.

Jake Taylor almost beat Michigan by himself, Faison had a had trick, our goalie was giving Michigan easy shots to make in the third period & he was still saving them and the Kavanagh's seemed to assist on every goal.

Tyler Buchner made it into the game late in the 4th period.

Lacrosse clubs from Denver, South Cali and Illinois were in attendance.

Stay healthy, intensify that competitive spirit, and hang up that second championship banner! Love watching this team!

ESPN sports center had the Jake Taylor highlight of his behind the shoulder goal and what a sweet shot with was.

Good win for ND yesterday. Need to dominate teams in the Michigan tier and not let them hang around like Georgetown did.

Lax did you envision Faison on first line drawing the pole this early on? He’s a match up nightmare for a taller pole with his COD and shiftiness. This team is going to be a tough matchup for anyone.

No, I would've thought team would keep their LSM on Dobson and just slide early to Faison. The one thing that has really surprised me with Jordan is how well he has finished the ball... he is a more refined scorer than I thought he would be as a freshman.

His younger brother might actually be better than him too, which is nutty.

The goal he scored on the crease showed some great hands and awareness the other day and strong wrists. He’s been impressive and creating favorable match ups. Team looks very solid right now and getting better.

Good win.

Even got another Faison goal.

Don't like the late game comebacks by other teams though! Makes ya sweaty on a casual Saturday.

Were they 4 for 20 shooting in the second half at one point? That is awful. A win is a win, even when you force the crease and take undisciplined shots and still take down number 3. This is a very good team.

Yeah, the way you know they’re good is that they can do a lot of “not great” things and still come out on top.

If they can stay healthy, anything less than a championship is going to be super disappointing.

this team to me has the UCONN mbb team written all over it where if they play just okay but not great that they can still win but win a game that is close but if they bring their A+ game like UCONN did in the second half of the ILLINI game then good luck not getting blown out.
