  • Re: BU 2017 Season Thread III: Terriers falling (into the off season)

    why not switch western Michigan and BU? I realize bracket integrity but certainly rewards those fans that want to see their team play. I see 500 fans (maybe) at the air Force-western Michigan game. What a joke. only 6 real eastern teams in the tournament and 2 get sent out west.

      Well, if BU somehow makes it out of this bracket and into Chicago, at least no one will be able to whine that BU doesn't belong there or had an easy ride.

              It's not a joke to follow bracket integrity. By and large that is what happened.

                Not a joke, but they certainly didn't follow recent precedent by not making more attendance swaps.

                  They certainly won't be saying" who is that Folin kid"

                    Unless I missed some media somewhere, I don't believe any college hockey media correctly predicted the bracket.

                        Then Western should be playing Cornell. That's 6-11. It should either be all chalk or all region. They are having it both ways.

                          Which I can actually understand because it seemed like every expert had a different bracket

                            They always have it both ways. That's how this works. It's never all one way of thinking. It's what they think is the best combination of bracket integrity and attendance.

                              UML's top 6 D got 33.1% of their shots blocked, so I guess they're not very good either. I also checked top ranked Denver's top 6 D and they had 32.8% of their shots blocked, so I guess they stink as well.

                                How many fans will be at the Air Force -Western Michigan game (2nd game of the doubleheader) in Providence? 500? Talk about a dreary atmosphere for an NCAA tournament game. Just play it at the Moses Brown rink- that should fit all the fans who want to be there
