Hockey / Playoffs : Q loss = Cornell Bye
February 24, 2007, 09:06:02 PM
Well that wasn't a fun game against harvard.  We can still get a 1st round bye with a Q loss here.

Cornell/Q will be tied for 4th with 24 points
Cornell/Q tied head to head
Record vs top 3 (ahead of tie for 4th) will be 3 points each
Record vs top 8... We have 6 points against princeton, harvard, Q only has 3, so whoever the 8th place team ends up being, Q will have to do 3 points better than them against us or else we win (and there's no such team).  So we win the top 8 tiebreak.

Lets go Tech.

(update: My reasoning was a little flawed.  If the 8th place tie required breaking the 4th place tie, there's more to do, fortunately I put today's scores in the playoff possibilities script on slack.net and we still come out on top of Q).
