Brrrr! Just got in from the game. So nice to see Cornell so close to home. Team looked good, especially in such crappy conditions.

Oh, The Onion:

BCS v. March Madness

[quote abmarks][quote Brian Deerr '04]Based on the other options, I think it's a pretty good first-round draw for us.  It seems more likely that we'll be able to get them to play our style (which probably isn't terribly far from their style) than trying to slow down a team like Yale.  First team to three goals might be the winner here...[/quote]

I think you are right and it's not to our advantage.  If their style is our style they win.  Why?  

- not pushing them off their game
- THeir goalie has the same sv % as scrivens but northeastern gives up a lot more shots. So they give up a few more goals against.  But since we can't finish... and they seem to have some scorers..

- then warm up the bus if they get the first one.

Only way we win is by being absolutely on our A-game defensively and catching a bounce on offense.  1-0 or 2-1.  Agreed that 3 goals is the winner for either side[/quote]

Agreed. I saw them beat BU in OT in early March. Very similar styles. I felt like I was watching Cornell at certain points, especially when the Huskies had a power play.

Quite a few Cornell references on the Office tonight (more than usual, anyway).

The link on the MSG page doesn't seem to be working. Also, the Ticketmaster phone system doesn't recognize this as an event and I wasn't able to talk to anyone yet. :-/ Anyone else have any luck?
