    The record against the NCHC is just brutal. No way around it.

      And the fact that the league couldn't pick up a win against Arizona State, or the ECAC for that matter.............

        Something has to change in Huntsville.

          We’re sorry 😞

          ASU is coming north next season, so hopefully we can actually score that time around.

            Code:
            Tech      Home (8)  BG, Mankato, Anchorage, Northern
                      Away (8)  Mankato, Bemidji and Anchorage back-2-back, LSSU
            BG        Home (8)  Bemidji, Ferris, Alaska, Huntsville
                      Away (8)  Tech and Alaska back-2-back, Northern, Bemidji
            Mankato   Home (8)  Tech, LSSU, Huntsville, Bemidji
                      Away (8)  Ferris, Northern, Tech and Alaska back-2-back
            Northern  Home (6)  Mankato, BG, LSSU
                      Away (10) Alaska and Anchorage back-2-back (blech), Huntsville, Bemidji, Tech
            LSSU      Home (8)  Huntsville, Bemidji, Tech, Ferris
                      Away (8)  Anchorage, Mankato, Ferris, Northern
            Bemidji   Home (8)  Alaska, Tech, Northern, BG
                      Away (8)  BG, LSSU, Ferris, Mankato
            Four teams have back-to-back away series that includes a trip to the 49th.

            Northern appears to have the biggest challenge (2 fewer home games and an AK back-to-back) while the newly crowned GLI champs have an opportunity to host a first round playoff game.
            I am going to update this if I may. Everyone has played 16 conference games, and it is conference games and byes for everyone here on out! (edit-Pairwise Ranking added)

            (7) Mankato (39 points): Lake State, at Northern, Huntsville, at Tech, bye, at Alaska, Bemidji
            (T-24) Northern (36 points): bye, Mankato, Bowling Green, at Huntsville, at Bemidji, Lake State, home and home with Tech
            (T-10) Bowling Green (34 points): at Alaska, Ferris, at Northern, bye, Alaska, at Bemidji, Huntsville
            (31) Michigan Tech (32 points): at Bemidji, at Anchorage, bye, Mankato, at Lake State, Anchorage, home and home with Northern
            (19) Lake State (29 points): at Mankato, Bemidji, at Ferris, bye, Tech, at Northern, Ferris
            (34) Bemidji (25 points): Tech, at Lake State, bye, at Ferris, Northern, Bowling Green, at Mankato
            (52) Alaska (17 points): Bowling Green, at Huntsville, bye, Anchorage, at Bowling Green, Mankato, at Anchorage
            (58) Huntsville (14 points): Anchorage, Alaska, at Mankato, Northern, bye, at Ferris, at Bowling Green

              Right now, Mankato and BG are in. LSSU is at 19.

              NMU has moved up t, but I don't think my alma mater gets in without a conference championship.

                If NMU were to run their win streak to 10, those next 4 wins might be enough to put them on the bubble.

                    Those 4 wins in a vacuum get NMU to 18th, still a lot to climb the next 4. I really don’t see anyone but BGSU, MSUM, and maybe LSSU getting at large bids.

                      I assume that by winning those games, NMU hurts the quality of the W by adding losses to BGSU and Mankato?

                      We really don't have anyone to blame but ourselves... 1-6 in Non-con will do that, no matter how good your opponents are....

                            Nanooks have 6 games against 2 of the bottom 3 teams. Huntsville series and the Governor's Cup is huge for seeding this year. Bemidji has a gauntlet of a schedule left. LSSU isn't much better, but they're really hot right now.

                            Realistically Alaska could get to 38-41 points in the end if they can take one game from either BG or Mankato. The way they're playing right now, a split at both isn't out of the question. The bye week is really going to help after the Huntsville trip.

                              Nice of the league to mistakenly do a 3 round shootout in Anchorage tonight.
