And PC wins the tiebreakers in Hockey East right now and should be included. 2-0-1 against UNH and 0-0-1 against BC....

Bracketology is based on winning percentage, which now favors BC. Will be interesting if we get into a 3- 4- or 5-way tie for the league lead in Hockey East once everyone has played the same number of games...

Qunnipiac never wins the ECAC tourney, just food for thought.

Quinnipiac also had never been the number 1 team in the country nor have they ever led the pairwise nor have they ever made the ncaa as a part of the ecac. Quinnipiac hasnt done alot of things until this year. But history fortunately has nothing to do with this year so your comment is flat out ridiculous

Thanks Al, Welcome to the Pairwise thread. Just commenting on recent past history and the under achievement in the ECAC's while a member team. Since joining the league in 06, they have made it to the ECAC semis once, usually entering the tourney as a five or six seed . I guess it is possible that the guy who coached those last six years should make it to the ECAC finals with his eleven 25 year old seniors this year. Although I think the league is good enough that Q could possibly lose in the ECAC's. Stay on the bandwagon it's always a fun ride! ;)
 
Re: Pairwise and Bracketology 2013 Edition

The pairwise and TUC cliff as it stands tonight. Note that Northern Michigan is now very close to the cliff but while they remain above .5000 RPI their record vs TUC and COp elevates them. Wisconsin and St Cloud are hoping they go over the cliff, while Western michigan and especially Notre Dame are hoping the Wildcats can squeeze out enough wins to stay north of .5000

Code: 
1	Quinnipiac			30	0.5813
2	Minnesota			29	0.5651
3	Miami				28	0.5553
4	Boston College			27	0.5472
5	New Hampshire			26	0.5482
6	North Dakota			25	0.5461
7	Minnesota State			24	0.5471
8	Niagara				22	0.5422
9	Western Michigan		21	0.5385
10	St. Cloud State			20	0.5418
11	Mass.-Lowell			18	0.5408
12	Yale				18	0.5282
13	Denver			        17	0.5369
14	Notre Dame			17	0.5331
15	Dartmouth			16	0.5215
16	Rensselaer			14	0.5201
17	Wisconsin			12	0.5217
18	St. Lawrence			12	0.5151
19	Alaska-Fairbanks		12	0.5063
20	Nebraska-Omaha			10	0.5241
21	Union				10	0.5143
22	Boston University		9	0.5100
23	Merrimack			8	0.5153
24	Ferris State			8	0.5118
25	Robert Morris			7	0.5106
[B]26	Northern Michigan		7	0.5017[/B]
27	Providence			6	0.5196
[B]28	Ohio State			6	0.5037
29	Colgate				5	0.5031
30	Colorado College		1	0.5031

	Holy Cross				0.4999

	Air Force				0.4960
	Connecticut				0.4952[/B]
 
Re: Pairwise and Bracketology 2013 Edition

Robert Morris will be hoping Holy Cross can get over the cliff, but Air Force does not.
 
Re: Pairwise and Bracketology 2013 Edition

That loss cripples Wisconsin. They drop down to 28th in the pairwise.

The bracketology remains unchanged. The TUC line:
Code: 
Ohio State	0.5040
Colgate	        0.5033
Co College	0.5025
Holy Cross	0.5017
N Michigan	0.5014
Brown	        0.5005
---
Cornell	        0.4995
Air Force	0.4969
UConn	        0.4960
 
Re: Pairwise and Bracketology 2013 Edition

Tonight's pairwise implications

Boston College: 3, 4, 6, 7
Lowell: 9, 11, 13
Boston U: 18, 22, 23, 24
Merrimack: 19, 20, 22, 23, 29

Boston College could finish the night in Grand Rapids with Minnesota, Western Michigan and RPI. Wouldn't that be fun?

Well, I can definitely guarantee that the MAAC hockey league will get zero teams into the tournament.

True that ... but how about three from AHA? :D In a discussion between Connelly and Weston:

Connelly:
For a few hours on Sunday evening, Atlantic Hockey had one team solidly cemented in the PairWise (Niagara) as well as the team right outside the PWR bubble in Robert Morris. It led me to ponder that AHA could (admittedly a long shot) possibly get three teams in the NCAA tournament if Niagara and Robert Morris qualified as at-large teams and another club wins the AHA tournament.

Yeah, I am loving that idea!
