These guys are rarely wrong. In fact, people think that the Committee watches their vid before they decide. UConn v Michigan State in Wustah.

CHN also agrees with USCHO. Bracket Breakdown: Final Projection

Worcester is a Thursday-Saturday regional. Assuming both the men and women win their round of 32 games, their regionals are Friday-Sunday. Hopefully we can get people up to Worcester, no basketball excuses for either team.

We're also looking at a fun quirk of playing Sparty in hockey on Thursday and (fingers crossed) men's basketball on Friday.
 
I’m gonna guess that Amherst had such a huge discrepancy compared to anyone else because of their losses to Army and Omaha. That really nuked their OOC and I think the NPI puts a greater emphasis on OOC performance? The Stonehill tie and CC/OSU losses weren’t nearly as bad as those two for Amherst
 
As predicted so far:

Albany (March 27-29)
1. Michigan vs. 16. Bentley
8. Minnesota Duluth vs. 9. Penn State

Sioux Falls (March 26-28)
2. North Dakota vs. 15. Merrimack
7. Providence vs. 10. Quinnipiac

1:30 what a joke of a time and this selection show if that’s what you even want to call it that has 0 buzz no showing the teams no interviews. Took 35 minutes before they even showed the Worcester regional. This was more of a pregame show from the women’s game at 4 then letting us know where and when the teams in the tournament were playing. Do better ESPN

Very surprised they didn’t flip Duluth and Providence for attendance

The fact that we're in the tourney and playing in Worcester is enough of a gift.
 
Michigan State has arguably the best goalie in the country and Martone and Stramel. But if UConn can somehow beat the Spartans the next game is very winnable for a trip to the Frozen Four.

Much better than being in the Loveland or Albany bracket or having to face North Dakota in Sioux Falls.
 
Let's go Uconn you have no excuses to beat Michigan State especially if you have beaten bc and bu. But 1:30 time really well at least I will be out of work to watch it!

Anyone got an official ticket link? I assume this is not through the school.

I’m not sure if the school gets an official allotment from the NCAA. The tickets are live on Ticketmaster but there are several blacked out sections between the blue lines. I think those are for all-session passes and maybe school allotments? I’m gonna be patient to see if the school will say anything. I don’t think it’s gonna sell out unless Dartmouth fans take the building over

Since we're so close, I'm hoping UConn fans take the building over.
