RPI vs. Union (Mayor's Cup) Saturday, 1/23/2016

True, but we don't need to flip the comparison, just as long as they keep losing comparisons to other teams. Like Alaska. Right?
RPI wants PSU to keep losing in order to flip that comparison, I don't think the comparison against Omaha can be flipped, but them losing wouldn't hurt either. Of course, don't take this as gospel, as there are posters much, much, much more versed in this than I am.

Like Dr. D I get a little lost in the machinations of the selection process for the 16. I always figure that the best thing is to focus on winning the ECAC tournament.:)

Or that. Which would nullify all comparisons. :D

No, You need to flip comparisons with teams directly. We lose the comparison to Alaska anyway, so that doesn't matter. Put it this way, RPI wants all of the teams directly above them to lose while RPI keeps winning. Ideally, you'd like RPI to win out and then if they don't win the ECAC final four, would want Q, Harvard and Yale/Cornell in there with them, and beat at least one of them.

FWIW, the crowd of 8500+ (or 6500 if you read the Times Union post) was about a 60-40 split in RPI's favor.
