How about:
BC tanks the game to UMass, so that UMass ends up a #3, and then everyone is happy. At least as long as either UND or DU lose on Friday, and MSU wins the B10. Then you have only 1 NCHC #1 seed, and so the opponents for BU and the NCHC Champ are flipped, and BU plays CC and...

While I would agree with this according to the strict wording of the 5-team rule, historically it is true that only when the 5 teams were all 1 and 4 seeds, or 2 and 3 seeds, were exceptions made.
So, the rule is really: No intraconference games in Round 1, unless there is no way to avoid...Last edited by Numbers; 03-16-2024, 05:46 PM.

OK. What BU needs to stay in the east is 2 things:
1) Omaha does NOT end up as a #4 seed. How that happens? It was Omaha losing to CC last night that dropped them from a 3 to a 4 and that pushes BU out west. Easiest way for Omaha to NOT be a 4 is if they win the next 3 games in a row. Alternatively,...

As sigx15 said, Omaha falling out of the field clarifies things, as long as UMass is also out.
Alternatively, if Omaha wins again, and moves up to a #3 seed, that would also allow NoDak to stay in Sioux Falls.

HUGE LOGJAM of Michigan, CC, Omaha, Western...

Omaha and St Cloud have a series. St. Cloud is at home. There is a decent chance that SCSU wins that series 2-1. If so, I think it's possible that Omaha ends up a #4 seed.
Of course, a SCSU sweep might take Omaha out of the field altogether.
Western Michigan and CC also play each...

March 2 in the morning, and the only thing really clarified is that Cornell has fallen out of the race for at-large bids.
Also, Maine no longer is in real consideration for a #1.
So...
BC, BU, NoDak will be #1s.
Wisc, Denver and MichState are the candidates for the last...
