    Ferris and UAH are the most likely teams we could hopscotch.
    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.

          UAF made the kind of hockey history on October 10th 2015 that no team wants to claim – the Nanooks became the first NCAA Division I victim of Arizona State.

            Friday and Saturday the Seawolves hook up with the one and only purple cows….. Yep the one and only, nothing like those bulldogs, there are zillions of those suckers and with all some weird tale of how they were, so it is. I don’t care about the purple cow’s record cuz we have to sweep them. Foil up and kick butt Seawolves.

              I think it was Kari from Channel 2 who brought up playing to an opponents level and I think that is true, playing up to MTU and playing down to NMU are two great examples. Positive interview with Thomas & Kozun:

                Thanks. I haven't heard anything about parents weekend. I assume it will be during the _airbanks series? Anyone know?

                From ADN:

                "According to NCAA, the (UAF) hockey team used ineligible players in every game played from the 2007-08 season to the 2010-11 season. Over that span, the wins and ties will all become losses. 4 wins and 2 ties came against rival UAA".

                UAF is 56-86-12 vs. UAA.

                  It is the Gov cup weekend.

I wonder, though, how your predictions compare to the Pick 'em as far as successfully predicting outcomes. Is there a way to compare?

                        I do enjoy this — and I'm learning, and it's getting better. I haven't checked against Pick-Em, but I could after the season. I'll be doing some statistical analysis to see how it could be improved. The system itself is pretty resilient: win a game against an evenly-matched foe, do well; win when you're heavily favored, meh; win when you're a big underdog, WOW! It's the transitive property —*UAA beat UAH, UAH beat UAF, therefore UAA >>> UAF, right? —*taken to another level.

                        A big win for UAA this weekend would really move the needle. It would also make me sad, not because I don't like the Seawolves, but because I'm afraid that UAH will have squandered the playoffs again.

                          I didn't see you work up anything for any teams other than the Alabama game and the UAA/MN State game.
                          Guess you were too busy.

                            I'm working on it as I have time during the day, and I'll finish it this evening. Why are you such a jerk about this?

                              Besides not posting to your this weeks opponents thread until after Camilo tossed you a bone, you skipped posting to any threads other than UAA and MN State. Check the times of your posts.
                              Most people are happier being positive rather then negative but I guess there are exceptions.
                              Your life must be very empty that you can find nothing better to do then try to an elicit a response by being a negative troll.
                              What a guy!

                                I'm unaware that it was an Internet crime to publicize some fairly hard work on the Internet to a group of fans who might appreciate it. I'm pretty sure that you're the only person who thinks that I'm trolling this discussion topic, and if I'm wrong, I'd honestly like to hear it. If I'm coming across as a jerk, let me know. [I brought ponies! I thought y'all liked ponies!]

                                I don't watch many UAA games outside of those against UAH —*sometimes, if I'm still up, I'll watch a home game in Anchorage or Fairbanks. So no, I can't really talk knowledgeably about your team. I can't tell you if Mantha's dropping his glove or if his defensemen are leading him out to dry or if the players have tuned the coach out. I'm not there to hear what the boosters have to say (and if they're like boosters anywhere else, they're probably saying a lot). I've never sat in your arena, and I don't know how bad the muffler is on the Zamboni.

                                I do know a little bit about how to run statistical simulations, which are, as you note, not binding upon the game in any way, shape, or form. If I could magically predict the season, I would find that very boring unless it were "UAH goes 28-0-0-0, wins all non-conference matchups, scores 10 goals a game in the NCAAs, and is the first NCAA men's ice hockey team to be enshrined in the Hockey Hall of Fame before they walk across the stage at graduation".

                                No, I'm just a guy who likes hockey, likes statistics, and wants to combine the two of them from time to time. I worked on this today while I was at work, which is why there was a gap between posting the first two and posting the last two.

                                I also know that none of the above will be very likely to change your mind, but ... dude, I have a voluminous body of work on the Internet, from running a sports e-zine 20 years ago to writing for USCHO and USA College Hockey Magazine to 10+ years on Twitter and a ton of other stuff. None of that says troll.

                                HTH. HAND. YHNBT.
