After Friday UND has 17 comparisons. If UND beats SCCC tonight they get close to flipping Maine and BU. If they can win the rest of their games vs TUCs they have a shot at flipping Clarkson.
Best case scenario, UND will end up with 19 or 20 comparisons. UND is NOT likely to flip UMTC, SCCC, Notre Dame, or NH. This means we can basically end up a top #2 seed. This also means we are not likely to be in the West regional, as Devner will likely be there as a #2 or #3 seed and UND couldn't play them in the first round.
As much as I wouldn't be a fan of this we might be looking at a first game vs. Michigan in Michigan (The only good thing about this is the winner might get Notre Dame in the quarter). As Always if we are not a #1 seed, which we won't be, I hope we go out East.
