  1. Maybe Im reading the brackets wrong, but Chicago only has 1/16, 8/9, 5/12,4/13 matchups. They don't get any of the 10 or 11 seed games. ok so unless the committee feels very positive towards michigan and gives em a 9 (or feels negative and gives them a playin game for 12 seed), it wont happen.
  2. Someone who knows more about seeding than I do, is there any chance at all that Michigan could be headed to Chicago for their first round games? I know its probably not likely, but I don't know if its pre-determined which seeds will go where. Obviously michigan is looking at a 10-11 seed, 9 at very best. I'm just curious if I should start browsing stub hub.
  3. ok, since everyone is bitching at me about PPG.. here is how the standings look now Dallas 1.21 82 points 68 games Los Angeles 1.19 81 points 68 games Chicago 1.18 82 points 69 games Phoenix 1.17 81 points 69 games Anaheim 1.161 79 points 68 games --------------------------------------- Nashville 1.159 80 points 69 games Calgary 1.14 81 points 71 games Minnesota 1.12 77 points 69 games Games tonight Los Angeles (1) Dallas (0) 1st Anaheim @ Phoenix I have no idea who to cheer for in either game as they each would hurt us equally. Just win everything in regulation please. I'm more worried about making the playoffs than seeding, so I think I am gonna root for Phoenix in the night game.
  4. AKA Caps were the better team Blah, 2 straight years we lose to these bozo playoff chokers in OT
  5. And 1 point is all we'll get. Thank GOd for a fluke 178 degree shot that bounced in and a stupid penalty in the last 2 minutes. We need 2 points tomorrow
  6. Yay nice job killing off the last 15 seconds amid booing fans lol. 82 points! Lets get 1 more!
  7. BACK FROM THE DEAD!!! Please get this point in 20 secs
  8. I tried to pretend it was different because it was an extended winning streak and figured theyd finally pulled to together but here we are. They dont look all that great today and considering how fluky that second goal is, they are extremely lucky to be in this game. They have been getting absolutely dominated since the go ahead goal though
  9. 1 point in 3 games would not be good
  10. Might just be better off using a women's ball if you are UCLA
  11. According to Lunardi, Illinois is still ahead of the other 3 Big Ten Bubble teams. He has Penn State as the last non-playin at large team, MSU the 3rd to last, and Michigan the 4th to last.
  12. It's too bad there isn't an NCAA tournament berth available for the winner, correct?
  13. And they have games in hand on just about everyone (only Dallas has played the same amount). Yup, but likely the hardest schedule. I definitely think we'll make the playoffs but its not at all going to be easy.
  14. So that worst case scenario I was talking about on Thursday is almost about to happen. Of the 5 games involving our playoff competition, all of them have gone against the Hawks. The last remaining game still in doubt sees Calgary with a 2-1 lead over Vancouver in the 2nd. The Hawks are now 1 point from not being in the playoffs.
  15. I think they are in now, but still probably playing in Dayton in a few games. I'm starting to get worried even though everyone says michigan is in.
  16. I'm sure they do but I would guess that 80% of the teams that played OSU this year thought afterwards they had a good chance to win and could have won. Michigan lost to them 3 times by like 15 total points. Oh well. I'm a pessimist so I gotta cheer for MSU here in case somehow the committee decides there should only be 6 Big Ten teams even though everyone and their mom thinks Michigan is in
  17. Ohio State is not this [expletive] good. Aghhhh I cant wait until they lose in the Sweet 16 or something.
  18. If Michigan could win, they are 4-0 this year against the teams on the other side of the bracket :)
  19. No. MLB is very careful about this. You won't find streams anywhere Are u sure? I swear I watched streams last year.
  20. Is MSU 1 cause of their win today? They dropped all their early test. Not a better record then Mich or Ill. I guess I'd go Mich, Ill, then MSU, but MSU's name holds more weight. I guess they're all about equal. PSU still needs 1 more win at least, if not the 'ship. Like I said those 3 are all about the same. I put Illinois over Michigan despite the win today because they have a slightly better resume than Michigan. Put MSU above Illinois because, I dont know. They have similar resumes and I didn't want to put Illinois first after losing today combined with MSU whipping Purdue. Horrible logic I know.
  21. Stealing the honor from bukie, but the Knicks are now the only team that the Bulls haven't beaten this year. They will have to wait until the last week of the season for their final opportunity, and its in NY. Pretty awesome though that we've beaten 28 of the 29 teams.
  22. All 3 teams that we wanted to lose tonight won. This playoff race is really tough. So....Chicago has dropped to 5th and is in a 4 way tie (in terms of points) with 4 teams (seeds 5-8). The Blackhawks playoff cushion is now down to 2 points over Anaheim. Coming into the week we had a 5 point cushion and I think held the 4 seed by 2 points. What a difference 5 days makes. 4. Dallas 82 68 5. Chicago 81 68 6. Los Angeles 81 68 7. Phoenix 81 69 8. Calgary 81 70 --------------------- 9. Anaheim 79 68 10.Nashville 78 68 11.Minnesota 77 69
  23. Yeah, I guess we should start talking about whether the Big 10 can get 7 teams. I don't know if PSU can feel too comfortable unless they win tomorrow. I think Michigan, Illinois and Michigan State are all in, but all 3 of them can sweat if PSU wins tomorrow. I think the hierarchy of bubble teams at this point is MSU, Illinois, Michigan, then Penn State, but PSU went from barely on the radar to last 4 out/in range.
  24. Time for Wandy to go down.
  25. To the Sixers, no less. Pull it together and dispatch the Hawks, Bulls. What does "to the Sixers no less" mean? Philly is pretty damn good. 31-18 since their poor start and 17-6 in their last 23 games. Boston should have won but its not a monumental upset.
