    FC Dallas North


    West is DII, North is DIII and West beat North in the TX summer classic last weekend.

    Moving FCD West or FCD North and Polaris into the gold would make things work out nicely. Smile

    The only one that I can say anything about is the Rev seed. They have had much success this summer including Beat the Heat Semi's yesterday against some good teams. Might want to put them higher, around 10 or so.

    If we get 2 more teams in the gold bracket, would there be a quarter-finals round? Seems like it would make sense for a 16-team bracket with a 3 day weekend.

    BTW: The Blizt White team is very strong and would compete very strongly with most of the Teams in LHGCL DI. Given that, the fact that this is a FCD tournament and the strenth of the gold division so far, seedings could be very interesting. If we only have semi-finals, even more so.

    FC Dallas North

    I simply over looked FcDallas West being in the bottom bracket. I just assumed all d1 and d2 teams would want to play in gold and made that clear to the TD
    West is DII, North is DIII and West beat North in the TX summer classic last weekend.

    I agree, but I think they will still look at final D1 standings as well. That is the only reason I had them so low.

    19 TUSC BLITZ UNITED 99 NAVY
    20 TUSC BLITZ UNITED 99 RED

    Let the prognosticating begin...


    Having seen all of these teams play somewhat recently(with the exception of the TN Rush team), I am also in agreement that two of the Silver teams should be moved up. Specifically, FC Dallas West has no business playing in a silver bracket and either the Lubbock Lonestars Blue team(who played in State Cup) or Polaris or FC Dallas North should be the other.

    In the event that plays out:

    1. Solar Red
    2. Solar Blue
    3. Tulsa Blitz
    4. FC Dallas Premier
    5. Mustangs
    6. Tulsa TSC Black
    7. D'Feeters
    8. TFC
    9. TN Rush Nike
    10. Revolution
    11. Lady Aztecs
    12. FC Dallas East
    13. Odyssey
    14. FC Dallas West
    15. FWFC White
    16. Lubbock Lonestars Blue

    That would lead to a much more natural bracket with opportunities for quarters, semis, and finals. 2 games each day for those that advance all the way.

    Another one I like, but would have to tweek it to keep the Tulse teams and the FCD teams out of the same groups...

    Good thoughts SS. I did not consider that in my ranking. However, by swapping the Feet and TSC and swapping LA's and FCD East, you accomplish both with the most accurate ranking, IMHO.

    A
    Solar Red
    TFC
    TN Rush
    Lubbock Lonestars Blue

    B
    Solar Blue
    TSC Black
    Revolution
    FWFC White

    C
    Tulsa Blitz
    D'Feeters
    FC Dallas East
    FC Dallas West

    D
    FC Dallas Premier
    Mustangs
    Lady Aztecs
    Odyssey

    Now those are good-looking brackets with out of town teams spread out everywhere.

    Very nice NG! Wonder if TD is listening. 3 tough brackets (2-4) and 1 unknown with 2 out-of-town teams. GREAT group of teams. Somebody tell me why this is only a Silver tournament on gotsoccer.

    NG...looks good (brutal, but good). FCD Premier as the 4th seed, correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't this last years champion, does that not factor in? This group is almost the same and the reloads were good additions...where's the love?

    Yes, they won the 2009 event. And didn't they beat Solar Red 3-1 at the Memorial Day Cup? Smile
