If Union gets the win in that game, they are home in the first round.

That means we get Quinny if the favorites all win next week.

And, if the first round games hold form, each quarterfinal features the higher-seeded team vs. what could be considered a "nightmare" opponent... except for us.

Harvard took three of four points against SLU, Dartmouth beat Princeton twice(, we took 3 points against Quinnipiac), and both Union and Clarkson took 2 points from Yale this year.

Sounds great to me.

No matter what, Cornell draws an opponent it's had success against this season:
Clarkson- 1-0-1
Union- 2-0-0
RPI- 2-0-0
QU 1-0-1
Colgate 1-0-2

Also for the first round, Harvard is winless vs. Brown this season, though I don't expect that to last much past Friday.

Tomorrow's game matters only for Yale's PWR and potential DQs. Sets up as a big trap game for Yale heading into the bye, cleary and hobey in hand.

Yale and Colgate are scoreless after one.  Game is being televised on ESPNU.

edit: still scoreless after two.

Post by: jtwcornell91 on March 01, 2009, 05:56:55 PM
Yale goes up 2-1 with 4:39 left.

Why is Yale wearing blue?  Did Colgate only bring their whites because Brown was in black and pink?

Goal being reviewed...
Title: Re: Yale-'gate
Post by: nyc94 on March 01, 2009, 06:03:16 PM
Colgate tied it 2-2.  About 1:30 to go in the third.

Edit: Going to overtime.  Colgate ties record with 16th overtime this year.

Edit: Yale is currently 7 in PWR.  Tie drops them to 8.  A loss drops them to 9.

This probably helps Cornell's RPI very incrementally because we played Colgate 3 times.  Hard to say...

If first place had been on the line, Yale probably would have won the Sunday game with Colgate 11-0.

Actually, you can check with http://slack.net/~whelan/tbrw/tbrw.cgi?2009/rankings.diy.shtml

It looks like switching the result to a Yale win would drop our strength of schedule from .4987 to .4986, but wouldn't be enough to impact our RPI, rounded to four decimal places, at .5464.  (Of course, it would bump Yale ahead of us in the RPI rankings.)  I think this reduced impact is in part because of the wacky 25/21/54 weightings they're using for RPI these days, since the switch would hurt our opponents' percentage but improve our opponents' opponents' percentage...
