    The simplest bracket is straight chalk.

    The only conflict is UND/SCSU. You swap SCSU and UMass. You look at that and see … 

    Mankato/Harvard and UND/UMass and say Worcester because of two MA teams. 

    You quietly ask Michigan “Albany or Allentown” and WMU gets the other. 

    Presto. Done. 

     

    That’s possible but makes less sense than just putting UND up against Notre Dame in Albany. Besides “Wooster” is a crap hole. Should have never been a selected site in the first place.

    That's why I think there is a chance UND ends up in Worcester playing Umass in Westerns regional.

    Do you think they’ll put UND in same bracket as Western Michigan to set up a game with them for the 6th time? I think not.  I see us heading to Albany for a date with Notre Dame, then possibly Mankato. It makes no difference whether four teams from the NCHC make the FF. Let the cards fall where they may.

  3. Here’s how it’s shaking out… We were never going to be in same bracket as DU.

    Allentown, Pa.
    1. Michigan vs. 16. American International
    8. Quinnipiac vs. 10. St. Cloud State

    Albany, N.Y.
    2. Minnesota State vs. 15. Harvard
    7. North Dakota vs. 9. Notre Dame

    Worcester, Mass.
    3. Western Michigan vs. 14. Northeastern
    6. Minnesota vs. 11. Massachusetts

    Loveland, Colo.
    4. Denver vs. 13. Massachusetts-Lowell
    5. Minnesota Duluth vs. 12. Michigan Tech

    I’m not sure what needs to happen to get DU to #2, but probability has them at a 3 percent chance of being the 2 overall so seems unlikely. 

    How about if Michigan loses game 1 of Big 10 and DU wins NCHC tourney title?

    Right, but you are implying it's a done deal they won't be in Loveland. Which is why I asked why you thought that way. If it's just a hunch, that's fine. Was just wondering what made you think that because it's totally possible and a very good chance of it, actually.

    Buddy, this isn't a wanger-swangin' contest.... I'm asking why you think it won't happen. I'm not challenging your intelligence, here. 

    Okay, wanger swanging aside I don't see DU at #3 and UND at #6, or either teams at #4 and #5 to qualify to be in the same regional. I believe if UND loses a game they fall to #7, or if DU wins the title they could very well land at #2.

    Again, feel free to elaborate why you don't think it'll happen. If the season ended right now, we would be the second highest 2 seed and DU the third No. 1 seed. So, it's not super hard to consider them flipping our match up into Loveland to increase attendance elsewhere.

    P.S. PM me with the amount you'd like to wager.

    Correct...if the season ended now. However the current situation will change with this weekend's games since one of those two teams is going to lose, making the current situation a different situation. In other words, the current situation can't remain status quo.
