College Hockey Weekly is having a "Predict the NCAA Tournament" Contest on their website right now (all entries must be in by October 6th). Similar to their contest for the Greatest Teams, the winner will receive a jersey of their favorite college hockey team. Anyway, for those interested, here is the link to enter that contest...

Western Michigan

#2 Seeds:

That's a good question. I'll ask and get back to you about that.

Also, if you want to be a part of the actual contest, make sure to click the link (in my first post) and create your entry. October 6th is the last day to submit an entry, and 25 entries need to be received for the contest to run.

Re: Pick the NCAA Tournament Field Contest

Surprised to not see BU on most of these.

I think they'll be a bubble team, but should get in. Hockey East will be interesting this season. BC and Lowell seem like the only two sure-fire picks. Certainly the conference will get at least 3 in (if not 4-5), and BU is the next team at the top of my list to nab that spot (followed closely by Providence and Maine).

Also, CHW has 7 official entries into the contest. October 6th (noon eastern) is the deadline, and they need to have 25 entries to run the contest, so if you were debating about entering, do it (see link in post #1). You could even win a jersey :p:D:D

:eek:
What do you know that no one else knows? ;) :p

lol I'm going on a limb that they'll bring their A game this year in preparation for HE. I could most certainly (and probably) will be wrong, but maybe I'll look smart in the end.

Good deal. There have currently been 21 entries submitted, so it looks like 25 will easily be hit by the October 6th deadline. Remember, if you want to submit your entry, go to the first post of this thread, click on the link, and fill it out.
