RedFrog Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 Probably. Down to #15 in PWR Jim, I really love your set up for the RPI/PWR, you do one hell of a good job. Easily the most user friendly. THANX! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedFrog Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 Do we want UMass to win? I would say no. We have the NE comparison pretty well in hand, and UMass would probably knock Mankato out of TUC consideration if they won. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Siouxman Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 Michigan and Denver flipped in the PWR and Denver now only 1 point above the Sioux. With Bozak and Ruegsegger out the Sioux just need to take care of some business and they can have a #1. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keikla Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 I would say no. We have the NE comparison pretty well in hand, and UMass would probably knock Mankato out of TUC consideration if they won. I thought I saw someone else post that if Mankato drops out of TUC, then Yale won't reach 10 TUC wins, which is beneficial. And I didn't know how solidly we hold our pairwise position over NE.

RedFrog Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 Get this. If Ohio State beats Alaska, Mankato and Alaska would have identical RPI(.5101) for the 25th TUC spot. (This is not including the Air Force/Sacred Heart results) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(This is not including the Air Force/Sacred Heart results) This week's play could also adjust RPI's of teams near the TUC cliff, no? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UMDDogz Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 0-0 between Alaska and Ohio State. 4:24 left in the second. 28-12 OSU leads in shots. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UMDDogz Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 That sounds like a boring game. Other than the Nanooks goaltender standing on his head...yeah. 0-0 through 2. Shots now 33-15. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goon Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 Other than the Nanooks goaltender standing on his head...yeah. 0-0 though 2. This could be one of those 5 or 6 period games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jk Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 Sounds to me like the game which shall not be named, when one team dominated and the other took a trip up the ice late in the third, got a bounce, and won 1-0. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nodakvindy Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 If MSU is not a TUC, it looks like the only way the Sioux can get a #1 seed is if they win the Final Five and Denver loses the third place game. So results that would be beneficial it getting Mankato back to TUC status are Alaska losing to Ohio State tonight, RIT losing in the AHA semis or Northern Michigan losing in the semis and third place game of the CCHA tourney. Those are the only teams that are close enough to falling and even then I would say an RIT loss is the only sure thing - the other results would make it pretty tight. Due to our loss to Michigan State, comparisons against Notre Dame and Michigan are unwinnable, as is the one with BU, so flipping Denver is the only hope to move that final step up.

UMDDogz Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 0-0 still...under 8 to play. Nanooks are showing a bit of life now. Shots are 40-20 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UMDDogz Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 Nanooks score!! 1-0! Wow...it's just about over too! 50.7 sec left. Timeout OSU Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Due to our loss to Michigan State, comparisons against Notre Dame and Michigan are unwinnable, as is the one with BU, so flipping Denver is the only hope to move that final step up. As said above - we will probably go down in PWR, no matter what we do, if MSU is a TUC. After this weekend, Yale will have enough TUC games for this comp to count and if they win out, they will flip the PWR with us. If MSU is not a TUC they will not have 10 TUC games and the TUC comp will not be used and we can stay ahead of them. Regarding Denver - if we both win Fri, we will gain RPI slightly due to our opponent being ranked higher in RPI (UMD and UMTC both have higher RPI vs Wisco - the winner's RPI will jump more after the game Thur). Beating Den head to head on Sat. may be enough to overtake them in the PWR. Can't wait for the Pairwise Predictor/You are the Committe tools to come out within hours so we can see for ourselves what outcomes are needed to be a #1 seed. If so, I can't see us being sent to Mlps, though. Notre Dame or Mich will get that call on Sun, if we are the 4th #1 seed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yzerman19 Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 A Denver loss to WI and a Sioux win on Friday flips our comparison with them. It would tie COP, we would win the TUC, they probably will still have RPI, and we will have H2H. We would win the PWR 2-1, we'd have 21 then and they'd have 20. THat would bea number 4 seed overall and probably a regional at Mariucci... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
