We haven't played well on the road in a couple of years. We are a young team and we are playing the defending champs and our toughest competitor back to back. I don't want to be pessimistic but I really hope our girls get it together and come away with at least one win (preferably over Neb).

It'll be tough. This weekend will really test how much fight our girls have. If I'm not mistaken, Texas should play Nebraska on Friday. Hopefully that'll be a tough enough game to suck some energy out of an always strong Nebraska team. But we'll just have to wait and see...

Last year CU won the regular season title, but were rolled by the Ags 2-0 in a totally dominating performance - I think the Ags had something like 15 corner kicks in that game.

The last time A&M went to Boulder (2002) we won. Same goes for the last time A&M played in Lincoln (A&M won). Coach G said that road trip was the key to A&M winning the conference championship that year (as well as the 2-1 win over tu).

CU just lost to Missouri and Nebraska already has a home loss to University of Pacific.

The young Aggies seem to have their act together and I like our chances in Boulder and Lincoln. BTHO CU and UNL!

CU has not performed well this season, certainly not up to Big 12 Champion standards. Hopefully the Ags can go in there Friday night and take control of the game early. NU might be a tougher team to handle, though not as tough as last year. Nebraska starts a young team as well, and Timko is hot right now, but the Huskers are missing their best scoring threat from last year, Jessie Bruch, who is out this season with a torn ACL. Ags should come away with at least 1 win, and should score 2 wins.

1 down, 1 to go!

Sounds like the Aggies were lucky to win. Colorado must have been a fast team, and we don't have any really fast defenders on the field. CU really pressed our defense and caused quite a few defensive errors. But like Phil said at the post-game interview, a win is a win and we'll take it.
