2019 USCHO Pairwise Predictor

Re: 2019 USCHO Pairwise Predictor

To give a 4 seed home ice is ridiculous. Especially Providence, who isn’t the host school.

Totally agree it happened when providence won that title a few years ago. They were the 4 seed non host and were placed in providence when their seed should have been sent out either west or midwest i cant remember.
 
Re: 2019 USCHO Pairwise Predictor

Providence should have been in Fargo- Quinnipiac got sent there instead. It wasn't even a case of there being a clear advantage for both halves of the swap or at least one advantage and one neutral- they straight up shipped QU off from Providence to Fargo to make it happen.
 
FWIW, Yale and SHU have applied to co-host in the coming years at Bridgeport. In the past, Fairfield U hosted the regionals with Yale, at least SHU has a hockey team. That said, has there ever been a year when co-hosts both made the NCAA tournament? Would or did the committee keep them both home or ship out the lower seed?
It's never happened so we have no idea what the NCAA would do.

Saturday predictions

Code:
[B]Manchester	Providence	Allentown	Fargo[/B]
Mass		Mankato		Duluth		St Cloud
Northeastern	Quinnipiac	Ohio State	Denver
Notre Dame	ASU		Clarkson	Cornell
Harvard		Providence	BGSU		AIC

The only possible swaps are Denver <=> OSU and Clarkson <=> Notre Dame
 
Re: 2019 USCHO Pairwise Predictor

Boston College is eliminated. The field is set. All that's left is positioning.
 
Re: 2019 USCHO Pairwise Predictor

If BG loses, I get:
4s - Harv, Prov, BGSU, AHA winner
3s - OSU/Clark, ASU, Cornell, PSU/NoDame
2s - Neastern, Denver, QU, Clark/OSU
1s - SCSU, Mankato, UMass, UMD
Although there may be differences in order.

If BGSU wins, they move to a 3, and PSU/NoDame to a 4

My hunch is that the Manchester will have pretty low attendance. Not sure Harvard or NU fans will show up with any real numbers. Maybe Umass does? Or is it too far away for their students to be bothered?

Re: 2019 USCHO Pairwise Predictor

BG up 2-0 with 6 min left.

Trying to work that out, it leaves:
13 - PSU or NoDame in Allentown
15- Providence in Providence
14- Harvard in Manchester, then.

Fargo: SCSU v AIC
Manchester: UMass v Harvard
Providence: Mankato v Providence
Allentown: UMD v PSU/NoDame

1:44 left and Mankato scores. Empty net now....2-1 BGSU

Quinnipiac and OSU are HUGE Cornell fans right now.

ETA: Mankato ties the game with :55 left...unreal.
