They "might" have hosted a home playoff in the B1G.... maybe. They played 6 games against top 20 teams, highest rank Ohio state. Cornell would not have advanced out of that region. Being ranked 1 in the uscho poll is the definition of east coast bias. Its rediculous to believe they are even a 1 or 2 seed. We can agree to disagree. Cornell was a very good team, and would have been capable of winning it all. Cornell destroyed Ohio State (at a neutral venue). Was that one of the Cornell games you watched this season? Nobody cares about the USCHO Poll. They are a #1 seed because they lost 2 games all season. They weren't the #1 overall seed because they played a middle-of-the-road schedule. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, They were a #1 seed because the lost 2 games. Stregth of that schedule 38th. The beat Ohio 5-2... in a holiday tourney, in Vegas, total crap shoot, not a curb stomping. By any stretch. Unfourtunetly, its a disagreement, well never get a true answer to... sucks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would just point out that Cornell crushed Ohio State. Cornell was up 4-0 midway through the third...despite Ohio State being the beneficiary of a 5-minute major. Based on your take, I am assuming you did not catch that game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frozen4sioux Posted March 24, 2020 Share Posted March 24, 2020 No i did not see that one game where a team played two good periods against a also mediocre team in a holiday tourney. You are WILDLY over crediting the results of a single game in evaluating overall performance. If laying a mild beating on a B1G team is the crowning achievement, over half the damn NCAA can lay claim to a #1 seed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, nobody is claiming they would lay waste to the NCAA field; however they would be the favorite over a team that was not as good as a mediocre Ohio State team. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
