Thanks Ugarte. That, and the program is only 3 years old, and it was SLUt too ;-)
Saturday: #2-4 get swept.
#1, 8, 9, 11, 13, 15 are the only members of the top 20 to sweep the weekend.
#15 Denver beats #2 CC for the 5th straight time.
In case anyone cares, Harvard @ Yale is playing right now. It's playing on CN8. You can also watch for free on the internet at http://www.cn8.tv/shared/video/cn8winmedia.asx .
Video feed looks great...rooting for Yale to pull an upset.

Although it might be hard to believe, I think the quality was even better for the BU vs. Sucks game. But, I'm not complaining.
Richards has the most boring goalie mask I've ever seen.
Man I hope he wears that in the game at Lynah. :-D
Is Yale's AD a blowhard or what?

Ha, I was thinking the same.
On another non-game-related point, I think I might kill myself if I see another Tablemate commercial. That bonus "remote control organizer" is definitly not a $20 organizer either.
According to the graphic, eight of Harvard's nine shots-on-goal came on power plays. :-O
Wow. Yale gets hot in 2nd period...4-1 lead w/ ~5 mins left.
Harvard got one back but is running out of time, 4-2 Yale, 2:20 left
It's now 4-3 yale with less than 2 mins. left. They're trying to hold off Harvard. If Yale pulls off the upset that would be huge for us. Not only as far as ECAC standings but I believe it would let us control our destiny in the Ivy Leauge.
And Yale holds on, 4-3 Yale final

Not to be nitpicky, but Cornell's beaten everyone but Dartmouth once already, and has a game left against Dartmouth (and every other Ivy). Without even looking at the other intra-ivy results, I'm wondering how Cornell didn't already control its own destiny regarding the Ivy Title.

Well, I think the Omlette pan is pretty amazing. Has there ever been a better use of computer animation than the demonstration of that wonder?

Does head to head break ties for the Ivy Leauge title? If it does then you are correct. Otherwise, prior to Yale's upset of Harvard all Cornell could control on its own would be a tie for the Ivy League title.
Sorry for being vague, but since there are no distinguishing marks on any banners I've seen for outright Ivy titles I had no problem including shared titles.
There is no tiebreaking on Ivy titles - even in the sports where it itself is the major accomplishment (i.e. most others).

No problem... I'm suprised the title hasn't been shared more than it has http://ivyleaguesports.com/sports/ivy-champs.asp?intSID=8
I'd take a title anyway we could get it, but outright is just just a little sweeter (especially if we had to share it with hahvahd)

How could that be true? Cornell and Harvard each had one Ivy loss before today's game, so Cornell just running the Ivy table would give Harvard two losses and Cornell one, even without help from Yale.

Oops you're right ::nut:: thanks John for correcting my poor logic (I think all of these end of semester papers are going to my head)
The Ivy League doesn't use tiebreakers for league titles. A tie means a shared championship. (Is bball an exception? Or is the potential tiebreaking game simply for the NC$$ bid and not the title?)
Isn't the lacrosse tournament bid determined by a coin flip in the event of a tie?
[Q]Jacob '06 Wrote:

Usually no. It's decided by head to head when possible I believe.
When Cornell, Princeton, and Dartmouth shared the title a few years ago ('03?) they drew a name out of a hat because head to head couldn't settle it. (I think it was P lost to D, D lost to C, and C lost to P making all three 5-1)
Keith,
Basketball titles are shared. There's a playoff for the NCAA bid when needed (See Yale, and the P's in '03).

Likewise volleyball. Last year Cornell shared the title with three (?) other teams but Yale won the playoff for the NCAA bid.

Correct (year) and correct (who beat whom).
And if I remember correctly D beat P the last day, or else P would have gotten the title as usual. Didn't matter for us though, cause D won the coin flip, P went anyway, and we stayed home. But I suppose Dartmouth deserved it, they did beat Princeton afterall.
P.S. I've always wanted to see that 3-sided coin ;)

I knew that d3 would come in handy eventually!
I didn't want to start another thread, but I think it's worth mentioning that Brown hung tough with, but lost to, Maine 2-1 on Wedn and Harvard picked up another quality win against UHN on Thurs, 1-0. Both games were on the road for the ECACHL teams.
