UMass Lowell 2015-2016 Season Thread II

In addition to the ticket deals floating around, UML is also keeping all residence halls and food services running throughout spring break. That's something you never saw prior to Meehan/Maloney becoming chancellor, always locked up tight by Friday night of break. Great way for students to still be around for this weekend's games, head home, and then come back for the Garden.

What time does Mookie plan to be at Tsongas on Friday night? I have a coupon good for 20% off playoff tickets for the games that can be used at the window. I could put it in an envelope for you at will call with "mookie" on it. Alternatively there is a promo code with it for online but the service charge negates the 20% off so that makes no sense.

A couple of Michigan Tech fans wrote their own Pairwise Predictor, so you don't have to wait until Monday to use the ones from CHN or USCHO: http://pairwise.techhockeyguide.com/

I already got us up as high as 8th in one scenario. Anyone find a better one?

I'm trying to replicate that Mankato 3rd that CHN's simulator gives... so far no luck... that's too much RPI ground to cover... I suspect an error in their program.

edit; I can get Lowell to 7th

edit #2: either the mtu fans blew theirs or chn blew theirs... I can't imagine getting those RPIs so far down to get Lowell that high (CHN gives 5th as a possibility for Lowell)... likewise... that Mankato 3rd scenario... no way no how.

There are 3,000,000+ permutations, I seriously doubt you've found all of them.

In a scenario that would never happen, I was able to get Lowell in a tie with BU for 7th, with Lowell having the RPI for the 7th spot. Also produces a 3 way tie at #1 and a 2 way tie at #5.

Time??? Um, hopefully before the game starts :p

If will call can hand it over that's cool. Wish I could deliver an exact time to meet up :(
If Mookie gets out of work early enough he is going to run home and grab the kids to come too. If he is late leaving he will have to drive straight north

no, of course not... and its not like I'm a professional in such things... oh, wait.

So you're saying you've run all 3,000,000+ permutations? There was likely only one of those where Mankato gets to 3, heck of a needle in the haystack to find. Also, why are you bothering trying to find that one in specific?

To see what level of absurd would need to happen... The pairwise isn't so fickle to get that kind of movement going. Further, certain things that would need to occur are quite obvious. To start with... Mankato winning out and most everybody about them losing in the first round.

In fact if such an extreme case exists then it'd be obvious what nature of things would need to occur, it's just not likely to occur.

My guess is that somehow it's cloning Mankato in an incorrect manner under that run to yield more wins than possible. I think it'd be unlikely that there would be a mass cloning of losses to all the other teams.

Ok, will leave coupon at will call with "uscho message board-mookie" on it. It will save at least a few dollars on the games.

No MATH!!

Is someone silly enough to be arguing stats with Dr Patman? :p
