What NMU does do is kill Ferris, like I had said to carter earlier today. NMU beating Ferris tonight gets them in as TUC and gives Ferris enough games for that comparison to count and their record against TUC's is brutal.

No. NMU did not kill Ferris. Ferris killed Ferris.

Today's Brackets are ugly. Some switching was required to avoid an all-western regional in Worcester while the attendance schools were all playing in the west...
Cornell is the autobid from the ECAC (15th in PWR), UNH is the Hockey East autobid (16th) replacing Vermont (14th).

All the Brackets are pretty tough but the 2nd Albany one would be nice bracket for BC. Even though I wouldn't be able to go :(

I know this is difficult for you to understand, but UW will want to keep winning so that they can get the best PWR position possible. Losing just to get away from Albany is dumb. If UW wants to win the title, they're going to have to win 4 games, and those games will be tough regardless of if they are in Albany or not.
 
Re: Bracketology

Hello Bracketology experts-

Due to the fact that Union has never come close to making the national tournament, I have never followed the PWR very closely. It seems like the people who are in the national tourney every year know what they are talking about.

With Union currently tied with Yale at #17 in the PWR, what exactly do we need to do to get an at-large bid? We have six regular season games remaining against Dartmouth, Harvard, Princeton, Quinnipiac, Cornell, and Colgate. I miss the days when we were at #7 in the PWR but after a bit of a slump for two weekends in a row, we picked it up this past weekend and beat Clarkson 11-2 and St. Lawrence 4-2.

Anyway, can any bracketology experts help me out? I'm ready to travel to nearby Albany or Worcester and even far away Ft. Wayne or St. Paul...What needs to happen for me to make these trips? Thanks in advance for your help.
