Frozen4sioux Posted March 12, 2020 Share Posted March 12, 2020 This is the worst possible outcome, but it is what it is. There will never be a doubt, proven with scientific certainty. Nine. We all have to deal with it for what it is but these young men deserve what they have earned. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frozen4sioux Posted March 12, 2020 Author Share Posted March 12, 2020 I guess In my estimation there is a process and scientific backed system in place for this and that is the NCAA Pairwise predictor system. Nine time National Champion, Asterisk it or whatever....but.... Raise the Banner! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rochsioux Posted March 12, 2020 Share Posted March 12, 2020 The NC$$ has blessed the pairwise system as a means of selection and seeding the tournament. It is based on a complete seasons body of work. Therefore, if you are not going to play the tournament then you should award the championship to the team that would have been the #1 overall seed. UND was also #1 in KRACH. Congratulations to the University of North Dakota players and coaches winning the 2020 national title. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nodakvindy Posted March 12, 2020 Share Posted March 12, 2020 Would love to see the Engelstads sponsor an invitational at the REA if things have settled before May. A 2020 tournament of champions. Invite each of the six league champs. 1 UND and 2 Mankato get byes to the semis. 3 Cornell vs 6 American International and 4 Boston College vs 5 Penn State in the quarterfinal. Play it over Friday night, Saturday night and Monday night final and donate profits to an appropriate cause. It wouldn't be an NCAA title, but it would be some closure to the season. Maybe throw in the Hobey annoucement at the same time since there won't be a Frozen Four. Have Hoeven lean on the NCAA is some sort of exemption is needed to allow it. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post southpaw Posted March 12, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted March 12, 2020 I've seen a lot of posts on social media saying UND deserves the title. Imagine if this had happened last year and St. Cloud had declared themselves the national champs. We would have mocked them endlessly. 1 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Claiming to be "national champions" this year is no different than all the Pre-College Football Playoff "national champions". It's just like MLB in 1994, no champion this year.

Siouxperfan7 Posted March 12, 2020 Share Posted March 12, 2020 So Florida State received the ACC Tournament Championship trophy today when the ACC Tournament was cancelled. I though Schloss tweeted that after the cancelled the NCHC tournament and before they cancelled the MCAA tournament, that UND would be getting the auto bid. Does that mean UND is gou 2020 NCHC Tournament Champions? Do we get the Frozen Faceoff Trophy? Honest question. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlphaMikeFoxtrot Posted March 12, 2020 Share Posted March 12, 2020 it sucks no doubt, but we are right there often; sucks more for teams that don't have our sustained success. not gonna dwell on it, and hopefully we pick up where we left off next year.

As much as I think UND would’ve made a deep run this year, there’s no guarantee they would’ve won so I’d rather not be awarded the championship with an asterisk and be the center of mockery and ridicule by others for years to come. Just leave this year be vacant as far as I’m concerned. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GeauxSioux Posted March 13, 2020 Share Posted March 13, 2020 My son had not heard that anyone else had come up with this idea and said, “well when you are playing a game and your mom calls you to come inside, whoever is ahead wins, so UND should win”. He is a teenager and was joking. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep. We'll pick up where we left off next year. We have some good players returning and some good ones coming in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
