I'm thinking of it. Would be nice to see how Clarkson comes off the layoff, and my wife and I did go to Michigan, so?

I did think about it.  I'd love to cheer Clarkson on and see if they can break the eight-year streak of Cornell being the conference's only representative to win an NCAA tournament game, and the field is just interesting in general.  But I'm in training for another century ride in just over two months, and I really need my weekend training rides at this point.  (In fact, I've even arranged to go on a training ride with the Denver chapter of TNT when I'm out there for the Frozen Four.)  So I'm gonna pass, but I suspect you'll see some great hockey.

I may go to Worcester, if I can get excused from family duties.

I have also been thinking about either Albany or Worcester.  However, after 2 straight weekends in the Capital District, I could probably use a rest before gearing up for the Frozen Four.  Too bad Clarkson didn't draw the late game on Friday.

It'd be great if some other outlets besides ESPNU (like CN8 did last year) picked up the games, but that doesn't appear to be happening as of yet.  ::cuss::

At the bottom of this page they have a listing of the other cable stations picking up the games. Rich, you might be able to get the BC game on WSBK and and some on tape delay on MSG+.

I'm already here (near Albany) and will wear my Michigan gear as it is one of my old schools, but it just ain't red.

It'd be great if the availability of ESPN360.com were up to the user rather than being dependent upon the ISP.  (Strangely enough, my German ISP doesn't have an arrangement with ESPN.)

Interviewed on Friday's telecast, Ralph Krueger mentioned that his wife was watching the game in Germany via Slingbox.  Perhaps that's a potential solution - although not one you could probably implement in time for this weekend.
