Last years regular season meeting between SMU and Temple was very one sided.

SMU out shot Temple 15 to 3.

Temple keeper made 6 saves(Shauni Kerkhoff), Bodden got the win and didn't have to make a save. Should be the same starting keepers for both teams.

Corner kicks were 4 for SMU and 2 for Temple.

Let's hope for a similar performance tonight.

Temple has an RPI of 53
SMU has an RPI OF 165

A solid win. If they can pick up another W on the weekend, things will be looking good!

So they go by points rather than W - L?

I had never noticed that. I can't remember if we did when I played- I think not. How long have they been doing that?

Funny the use the hockey point system and not the World Cup system. If we used points I think it was World Cup system with extra points for goals.

It's the standard soccer scoring - 3 for a win and 1 for a draw.

It usually ends up working out the same as W-L-D (counting draws as a half win) anyway unless somebody has a ton of draws.

There was one season (2011) where we got a higher seed than UCF because they had a lot of draws even though we had more losses - it looks like UConn may be headed in that direction this season.

Point system is used universally in soccer including the NCAA as long as I can remember. Goals scored and other differentiating factors are used in tournament play to separate teams that are tied in points.
