College Hockey News has BC as #4. Both claim to use the new criteria. Somebody is doing it wrong.

Somethings (such as how home/away weighting applies to ties) were not clearly defined and could be interpreted multiple ways, that could be the issue. Or there could be a bad formula somewhere. I'm not quite dead enough at work to back into both sites numbers.

I can see why you BU fans would want to contradict me, seeing as how CHN gives the Terriers a big time boost up to an impressive 36th rather than the correct 38th. ;)

Seriously though, CHN is doing it wrong. As I understand it they are using last year's RPI criteria and removing TUC. USCHO, Sioux Sports, and the other guys in the Pairwise thread (major *dap* to those guys who did a hell of a job putting together PWR calculations on their websites while everything sorted out) all have the same numbers using the new criteria.

Couple of things regarding Saturday:

Believe my tickets say general admission, anyone else? So I assume it'll be a free for all for seats?

Any suggestions on a bar that's walkable for beforehand?

my understanding is that some are GA but other seats are not. i got my tickets thru brown and they have section/row/seat assigned.

Good food and lots of beers to pick from.

One side of the arena is GA; the other side is reserved. If your ticket is GA, you'll be on the side closest to the front entrance (you'll figure it out once you're there; they have signs posted on each section).

As others have suggested, Spats is a good place for pre/postgame beers and food. There is a plethora of great bars with good deals in Providence, but Spats is one of the few within walking distance (assuming you mean within a 5-10 minute radius) of Meehan. You'll find that the area is much more pleasant than the area surrounding Schneider Arena, if you've ever been to a game there. Thayer Street has a ton of great takeout restaurants- I would suggest Mike's Calzones, Nice Slice Pizzeria, or Baja's Tex Mex Grille/Cheesesteaks (weird combo, but everything is delicious) if you want to grab a quick bite after the game.

I hope you enjoy your visit- but not too much, because that would mean a BC win. ;)

I saw a tweet from Brown that said there was only 300 tickets available for the game on Saturday!

Tonight's game is sold out through the BC ticket office but there are 2 tickets available at the BC Ticket Market Place, at face value, if anyone is interested.

These tickets are sold, but I saw some others there.
