    I guess they should've won more games during the regular season or moved to the CHA...

        Not sure if you are "beetching" or just noting that there will be "beetching" by others.

        Regardless, I think this is great.......great for college hockey and potential schools that may consider adding a DI program and great for UAH.

        Fans of the Big 4 conferences are routinley blasting the CHA and yet, there teams prove to be competitive with many of the teams in your "elite" conferences.

        Yes, I am a UAH alum and former player from back in the initial run at DI so perhaps biased. However, they have earned their right to a bid to the tourney and Bemidji clearly deserves an at large bid.

        For those "elitist" Big Four fans.... one of your teams will now be bumped out of the tourney which I am sure is a hard pill to swallow, but not to worry, the "elitist" approach to denying UAH a conference and the pressures that have caused the CHA to be no longer mean this will be the last year that this can happen. Hey, if your lucky...... that mindset may just result in some teams folding and then the tourney can go back to just twelve teams...... then there will be even more "beetching"!!!

        Go Chargers!!!

          My guess is it won't be because they won it is that a league with 4 teams is allowed to exist and have more than 1.

            Just noting it. Personally, I'm happy for UAH, and honestly hope that a CCHA team gets bumped from the tournament (Nothing against any CCHA teams on the bubble, just it would be justification for not letting UAH in). Best of luck in the tournament, Chargers.

              A valid point..... but again, the landscape and attitude of many of the member institutions is part of the reason teams:

              1) Left the CHA for other conferences
              2) Went to way of the dinosaur and are no more
              3) Would not consider joining the CHA

              All of which are factors in why the CHA was at four teams this year and why as of the end of the NCAA season, will be no longer!

                  Does Michigan have to win the tourney next weekend to get in? Or would a win over Miami/championship game loss be good enough? Or vice-versa?

                    Michigan would be on the bubble at 15 if they lost the CCHA title game (depending on other results).

                      Teams that do not have to win their conference tournaments to still receive an at-large bid:

                        Teams in bold are out. I haven't run the scenarios on BU, but they'll be very close. Also haven't run the numbers for Cornell, but I doubt they're in yet.

                                I think it comes down to the number of flights. DU has to fly anywhere, and if they go to Albany, everyone else is in busing distance.
