    Will be Umass-Lowell in first round for us.
    Remains uncertain if will be in Albany vs. Worcester (I suspect Albany).
    What is also certain (in addition to facing UML) is that Quinnipiac will be #1 seed in our side of bracket.

    I find that the doors are usually unlocked, so you'll likely just be able to walk in.

    Not looking good. Northeastern won, Minny and Duluth leading...

    Will be tough not to see this team in NCAAs but given the limits Ivy places on games and the way Pairwise works, we know we simply can't afford loses like we had to Dartmouth.

    I don't have a good feeling about today.
    Harvard won't be rewarded just for playing. What's happening is that they're already ahead of us in RPI and we're winning because we bit them head-to-head. But, if Duluth moves past us that flips a comparison and puts us behind them. Oh, screw it... it's complicated and frustrating when you lose to Dartmouth.

    This isn't two comparisons, it's just breaking out the common opponents comparison so you can see both the percentage and the record. There are three comparisons: RPI, head-to-head, and common opponents, with RPI being used to break ties.

    That might be the case. Do we know for sure RPI is the sole tiebreak? Because if you look at the detailed comparisons, Notre Dame wins RPI, there are no head to head, and then Yale wins two: Sum of Win % and Record under the Common Opponents area.

    I hadn't thought of it that way, but yeah, it's pretty nonsensical. Harvard moves ahead of Yale in PWR win or lose when you have the other 3 outcomes shown (and maybe even if you don't).

    This is the link to the Harvard wins scenario with the other 3 outcomes as well: http://pwp.uscho.com/rankings/pairwi..._56ecdd41a7620

    It shows Yale squeaking above the line but in a dead tie with Notre Dame. Thus the predictor actually shows 17 teams in (13 above the line and 4 autos below it). I just realized that. I think this means that if the first 3 are true and Harvard wins, Yale isn't actually guaranteed, they are at the mercy of the committee.

    EDIT: I realize when you click the URL, it only shows 16, because the AHA champion isn't displayed. You have to then click Show Pairwise Comparisons to see the 13/4 thing I'm talking about with the line below Yale.
