Howdy folks! (That’s a thing people in Texas say right?) That was a fun game of soccer played at a baseball stadium that has football lines, now wasn’t it. In my never ending quest to make this column easier to write, let’s dive in. 1) Goals given up at Globe Life Park. This is definitelyContinue reading “Data Dump: at North Texas SC (#1)”

            It’s Week 24, Búhos fans!  As each week passes, the next matches get bigger and bigger.  Think about Cardi B’s cousin’s friend’s current dilemma, then think even bigger.  These matches mean a lot.  By the way, don’t google that tweet while on a work computer.  You’ve been warned.  This week, Union Omaha finds itselfContinue reading “North Texas SC Preview”

Well that was a fun night a Werner Park! There is a lot to digest in this one so let’s dive in. 1) JP Scearce scores his first 2021 goal (FINALLY) Let’s start with a grim stat. For the 4th time in the last 5 home games, we scored a 1st half goal and gaveContinue reading “Data Dump: Toronto FC II”

            Welcome to Week 23, Búhos fans.  Today is a busy day for the USL League One, as every club will be in action.  If that seems at all unfamiliar, you’re right to feel that way.  This is the first time this season that the entire league will be in action on the same day. Continue reading “Toronto FC II Preview”

Well, that was a delightful introduction to NCFC! We’ll talk more about the numbers in a bit, but first I want to say that I throughly enjoyed watching that game. It was a combination of factors for sure. A large part of it was the delightful commentary from the local commentary team of Austin daContinue reading “Data Dump: at NCFC”

I know, it’s been a while since I’ve published my League One ratings. Work, combined with a road trip and getting my college football model ready for this year put me behind. But I’m here now, and a lot has happened since these ratings were last published. So below are not just the current ratings,Continue reading “USL League One Ratings: Week Whatever”

A lot of just staying the course last week, as Ben is doing his best to simply tread water and not give up his lead. Liam already has an exacto this week (his 16th already this year), so if he wants to make things interesting after this week he’ll need to go on a run.Continue reading “USL League One Predictions: Week 22”

The longer the season goes on, the harder it feels to come up with original content that is interesting and of value. Some of that is our sheer consistency.
