The final spot...1 is in two will be packing - who and why?

Ok, should be a fun hour of soccer for these girls Sat all games are at UTD all at 11:30am.

What do you all think? Seems you could argue almost any possibility. Statistically you could say 33% chance that all 3 could WIN or TIE or LOSE and the standings stay as they are , but it seems highly unlikely to me.

Good luck to all involved!

that's juicy, HookIt.

My prediction is DT beats TFC (sorry allhatnocattle), but TFC has nothing to play for and when they did DT beat them pretty convincing. Redstar has a chance but not much of one. ACES are odd man out even if they win, they are out. To many things have to happen for them to move on.

Good Luck to everyone this weekend. Should be interesting.

Texans Red came out and played like they wanted it today. Won 1-0. Are they in?

Texans stay in...

I believe that they are in also because RedSTAR did not win (they got beat by DIAMONDS). They needed both of those things to happen.

Actually, statistically, you are way off. The straight up odds that all 3 games would have the same outcome is 11%. Three games with each having 3 possible out comes gives you 27 possible results and out of those 27 there are only 3 which are same all across (www, lll, ddd). So if you take 3/27 gets you an 11.1% chance of the outcomes all matching. Now this assumes the 3 teams are equal, and the opponents are equal, which they are not. Each team doesn't have a 33% chance of Win, Lose, or Draw. Considering this, makes finding the true odds more subjective, and my subjective opinion would be in the 2% range.

Thanks Blank for the math correction, you are right, my number seemed too high even at 11% as you mentioned with all the factors in reality.... clearly it all worked out that way as well.....

I find it a bit funny that 77% of the poll above thought the result would be different....
