Minny scores with 7.9 secs to go.  3-2.

Whew!  Score another one for the Cornell text messaging service which reported the final score Princeton 5 Cornell 0.  This one was just too bizarro to have any face validity fortunately.

Michigan up 6-4 with a minute to go. Looks like they'll hang on for the victory in Omaha.

How do you break a three way tie in PWR when each team wins one comparison?

interesting, cornell/bc/minne tied for 3 after bonuses. minne wins v cornell, cornell wins v bc and bc wins v minne. what happens then? rpi rank order??? :) of course this may change with the games still being played. time to sleep....

RPI is the answer to just about every PWR tie break - pretty much everyone really

But it's very, very close, now.  Their lead in RPI is down to .5856 - .5836.  Also, whereas adding bonuses used to push Cornell all the way down to 6th, they now stay 4th.

In the case of rock-scissors-paper, RPI is used to break the tie.

In principle, you should look at the head-to-head comparison when two teams win the same number of comparisons, but RPI is easier to code as a tiebreaker, and the committee of late seems not to know what an individual pairwise comparison is, so who knows.

Anyone else notice St. Lawrence is not a TUC without bonus points?

With all but 1 game reported, St. Lawrence's RPI is .500
