Soccer hits the Rockies one last time before the regular season wraps
Soccer hits the Rockies one last time before the regular season wraps. That sentence sounds like a postcard you'd send home, and honestly, it fits. The Cougs are heading to Colorado for a final regular-season swing, and if you've been paying attention, you know this team has earned the trip. They've been grinding through a conference schedule that doesn't let up, and now they get one more shot to leave it all on the pitch before the postseason math gets serious.
Speaking of math, we also broke down the Pac-12 chaos bowl numbers for the football side of things in "The Pac-12 chaos bowl math for Cougs to sort." Different sport, same energy, figuring out where the Cougs stand when the stretch run hits. Worth a read if you like your sports with a side of spreadsheets and stress.
But back to the Rockies. This isn't just a bus ride and a game. It's the last time this group lines up as a regular-season squad. Seniors got their flowers on Sunday, which we covered in "Soccer seniors get their flowers one last time on Sunday," and now they get to play for something real. Altitude, opponent, stakes, none of it is new. But the feeling of it being the last time? That's different.
Go Cougs.
