Doesn't have quite the visual flair, but here are the Bradley-Terry based probabilities for the Sweet 16.

And since I have the spreadsheet set up to handle a 16-team bracket, here are the probabilities for the NCAA hockey tournament.

Thanks! One of the things that jumps out is how low FGCU's chances are. I wonder, is this because of the stiff competition a #15 must face, or is it because of the #15's suckatude? Has anyone tried to decompose the index?

No offense, but you're wasting your time.  It doesn't matter what the probabilities say, fucking BC is going to win again.  It's inevitable.



INEBITABERR!

The thought of BC winning again makes me sad, like when I'm so ronery and sadry arone.

I think something is wrong with your numbers. You're showing that teams from outside the WCHA have a chance and based on comments on USCHO that simply isn't possible. :-)

Wasnt that the pidgin-Asian phrasing that got the Duke frat in trouble at its Taste of Bangkok theme party?

Here is the ESPNU game link for 2pm Yale-Wisconsin.

Records of current ECAC members in the tournament (if you can bear it).

Supposedly wybc has the audio feed, but the website and my computer's version of IE aren't playing nice and Safari loaded up quicktime.

Go BullDogs!  Go Yale!!

For those who were at the 2009 Grand Rapid regional, what was the name of that bar where we drowned our sorrows after that BSU game? Just curious. I remember the carbombs, and have since found (and made) cake verisons of carbombs.

Rita, can you not get the ESPNU feed?  It's working great here.

Except Van Andel blasts garbage pop 1/10th of a second into every stoppage.  We should just start killing MBAs until they stop.

I'm at work, so wanted more of the description that audio provides over the video announcers.

Makes sense, though the PBP guy is not bad.  The sidebar stuff sucks, but it always does.

Pretty goal by Agostino fed by Miller, 1-0.

Yale has forgotten about last week. Don't tell Ken Schott. It's 2-0 Eli.
