siouxfaninseattle Posted March 7 Posted March 7 I don't have a problem with these regions but I think BU would. They are still Pairwise #2, so should get the AHA champ. But with only 2 #4 seeds to work with there's no easy solution. Lots of rabbit holes indeed, and I don't see much movement in the 4 Pairwise range. St. Cloud and WMU could switch spots but that doesn't resolve anything. An upset in one of the conference tournaments could make the first round matchups much easier to figure out. Quote
burd Posted March 7 Posted March 7 All 4 rows will be tough to hoe this year. Need Ludwig to be on and catch a few breaks. They’ll be ready to play, and so will the other guys. 1 Quote

Dustin Posted March 7 Posted March 7 From the aforementioned linked Bracketology article: "First, I’d love to get Wisconsin to Maryland Heights, which is a community known for its love of the Badgers." What's the connection there? Quote

What's the connection there? MARYLAND HEIGHTS, Mo. -- Friday was a day that will live long in the memories of Badgers women's hockey fans and players. No. 1 Wisconsin set and matched multiple records during a 16-1 beatdown of Lindenwood. Quote
farce poobah Posted March 8 Posted March 8 Providence 2-2 BU, middle of third period. Big PWR implications for both teams. Game on ESPN plus or NESN. Quote
farce poobah Posted March 8 Posted March 8 Final score in Providence, BU wins 4-2. Providence drops from 10 to 13 in PWR. Crazy tight on and near the bubble. Quote

I know I don't speak for most of you when I say I don't mind John Buccigross, but man how great would it sound to have Doc Emrick calling the Frozen Four?? 2 3 Quote

That would be the greatest having Emrick calling the game. Instead, we're stuck with a cheerleader screaming into the microphone. #firstworldproblems Quote

AlphaMikeFoxtrot Posted March 9 Posted March 9 Maine is limping into the tournament and will be a good first round opponent for a lucky team. Quote

They seem to be similar to ASU...such a dominant team at home, but struggle much more when playing away from Alfond. That won't help them come tourney time. Quote
Dustin Posted March 9 Posted March 9 Midco intermission report showed Du and Cc tied at 1. But my dvr shows that starting at 9 central. ? Quote
