Wednesday NCAA Hockey - The Road to Lewiston begins - and that's no snow job!

Being somewhat provocative, but there is evidence to back this up, too.

Norwich beats Trinity in every category except WIN (and possibly RNK which was even, although there is evidence that Williams fell out of RNK and was replaced by Amherst which would give Norwich a strong edge over Trinity in that category, too), and the only category that Geneseo beat Trinity in was RNK. Thus, Trinity could be viewed as in before Geneseo, and shouldn't have beaten Norwich out. That means that Geneso was the team that slid in, not Norwich.

Comparing Norwich and Gen gives a whole bunch of comparisons that are essentially equal and one (SOS) in which Norwich has a big advantage. The committee doesn't just count comparisons, but weights them based on (among other things) the size of the differential.

Except that Geneseo was ranked ahead of Norwich last Tuesday and both teams lost their only game at home to ranked teams. What about that would have moved Norwich ahead of Geneseo? On the "other site" I was informed the Geneseo "crushed" Norwich in the criteria and that their #2 ranking against Norwich's #3 was justified. That would seem to imply Geneseo was in first and Norwich took the last spot ahead of Trinity.

Isn't Norwich at Geneseo if the Knights win? Call me crazy but I would think Geneseo would be ranked ahead of Norwich then.....?

My video from Ozz just fired up. WTOP commercials now.

As far as 0-0 first periods go, that one was pretty darn exciting.
 
Re: Wednesday NCAA Hockey - The Road to Lewiston begins - and that's no snow job!

0-0 after1...bowdin fast on the forecheck,both teams with great chnaces..oswegos passes seem off and have fanned a few times, should be a great 2nd...both teams ofer on the PP...Johnson post :eek::(
 
Re: Wednesday NCAA Hockey - The Road to Lewiston begins - and that's no snow job!

That period was beyond wide open. But for some good goaltending it would be about a 6-4 game after 1.

Fascinating....WTOP just announced that Babson vs Bowdoin/Oswego winner plays Sunday.

That's just not going to be possible where I'm working. Well, maybe I can sneak a peek...

But then I forgot I'm in the central time zone. D'uh!

I got the office to myself right now, so I'm watching it... With the sound off to be safe. For 10 minutes till I have to go to do something. I missed the Oswego goal.

I believe it was Bodden on a backhand roof job.

It has to be on Oswego's end. Mine is pulling good bandwidth with the game on and the wife on the iPad. Must be a lot of people watching.

Plenty of bandwidth I am watching a near HD picture on a 65" 4k flat screen 30 miles off the coast of Cape Cod.....and it's flawless.

They are two of the worst play by play guys I've ever had to listen to. Wow.

It's good here now too. I've pinged my connection three times at the same time as I had trouble and its not slow here. Maybe somewhere along the way from them to me. It seems good now. Knock on wood.
