The polls - scratching KRACH, PWC, CoP and robbery! ...---...

Re: The polls - scratching KRACH, PWC, CoP and robbery! ...---...

Any reason why they pushed the selection show to Monday morning? I don't recall it being like that last year, was it?

It wasn't. It was sometime between 10:30-11 PM on Sunday night last year.
 
Webb has spoken, and the folks in Oswego will not be happy.

So when you're near me, darling can't you hear me
S. O. S.

I could very easily see this happening.

It would be crazy for River Falls. They will have finished with 20 wins while eliminating both EC and Pont en route to the WIAC championship, yet be the odd team out.

The west committee swapping EC and SNC would not surprise me one bit. I believe the job of the committee is to get as many western teams in as possible, and the WIAC teams have crazy RNK numbers because basically half their games have been against ranked opponents.

Maybe someone should have thought about that a few years ago when they decided to take their <strike>ball</strike> puck and go home.

Yeah, I went there. This is exactly where that decision comes into play.

Welp, for sure.

Also wonder if SNC now wishes that instead of scrimmaging UW they had played St. Thomas in November as originally scheduled. I remember there being talk of that decision affecting their Pool C potential to which my response was "SNC doesn't schedule for Pool C's..."

How does Eau Claire Stack up with SNC?

WIN - SNC (.731 to .704)
SOS - EC (.563 to .512)
RNK - EC (.444 to .200)
L25 - SNC (.857 to .714)
H2H - SNC (3-2 SNC win)
COP - SNC (.625 to .556)

SNC takes the criteria 4-2

SoS is the God the Criteria. When you have a whopper of an SoS win, take the SoS.

Maybe. But it's about how EC and SNC compare against eastern Pool C hopefuls, not each other...

SNC loses to Oswego. WEC has the SoS hammer that the committee seems to love. BUT the West Committee has to rank WEC above SNC for them to come into play.

So one last question before the field is revealed? Who deserves the bye more? #2 or #3 overall seed (UWSP) and #9 overall seed (Hamline) or #5 and #6 teams (likely Hobart & Norwich)?

I think all Western teams (with its an 8-3 or 7-4 split) will get a BYE.

Hobart v. Oswego in the first round? Plattsburgh a bye to the QF? No one had this!!! What the hell did the final rankings look like?

Makes the most sense geographically, regardless of whether or not Plattsburgh was ranked higher than Hobart and/or Oswego.

I'm just glad we're in it, win or go home at this point, you have to pay to watch Hobart's stream? Lou any chance of getting an Oswego crew out there?
 
Re: The polls - scratching KRACH, PWC, CoP and robbery! ...---...

Here's a scary thought: Plattsburgh women are the presumable #1, and the Women's FF is scheduled for 3/20-21. The men's QF is schedule to be played at Plattsburgh on 3/21. Someone has to move to accomodate the other. What happens here?

I thought they said all the games would be streamed on ncaa.com. Or is that just the FF? I would think with all it's rules, the NC$$ wouldn't allow a school to to charge for a webstream of one of its tournament games.

first round upset alert: Nichols over Trinity.
