    I have a gut feeling the championship is going to be BG at Tech.

      This is true but isn't that the case for most athletic programs, unless you have a D1 football team that makes it's own coin. I know Suzanne did some deep digging to the alumni base.

For some reason, playoff games just don't draw that well, especially if it goes to a Sunday game (2026 last year against LSSU)
        Yep, same with UAA vs. UA_ back in 2014.
        Just to be clear. My disinterest in this team became of the Uni's disinterest. Without the success of the hockey team, the other teams would not be where they are. Way to pay back the hockey team. **** UAA.

              I think you meant to say that UAA will win.

                                I don't think that Racki was a nerd.

                                I updated my projections based on last night's games: http://blog.wchaplayoffs.com/2017/03...ns-2017-03-11/

                                I'll do that again on Sunday morning if either Bemidji State or Minnesota State wins tonight and then next week before the one-game final.
