    Who said it was even? The Spain game wasn't even either. Who won that one again?

    The Spain game had the same kind of lopsided numbers. I don't think you need a program to tell you that we have a pretty big talent defecit in these games, however we are capable of pulling off the shocker.

    If the US ever has better stats and more posession than a top 10 team, it would be a sign that the talent gap is narrowing a little bit.
