    Best saying/QUOTE that can ever be referenced here. I try to reference it in small bits from time to time

    It also takes great coaching to pull of close loses. Bubba is a great coach either way.

    He heard how important quality losses are going to be at selection time, especially with no one in the room for him, needed something to offset that trainwreck in Pocatello earlier this year.

    You guys are screwed now with more teams from the power conferences moving closer to being on the bubble.

    Too bad nobody likes you guys and are willing to fight for you in the selection room. But hey, it’s hockey season.

    Yep, just like last year when UND had no business being in consideration but apparently had enough people in their corner they were damn near in. But I guess you know better than everyone else. You've proven that over and over again.

    UND would be in at 7-4. That requires staying out of their own way the next two games and taking care of business, which I have no problem admitting is not guaranteed.

    What makes you think UND had anyone in their corner last year? Just because they were on a list doesn't prove anyone was fighting for them. Could simply be that list was comprised of remaining teams with a plus .500 record, then quality wins, quality losses, etc.

    Again, I've never claimed of knowing things better than everyone. I usually tend to do some research or go ask those who know things that I don't before coming up with an opinion.

    Right now, is UND in? They were before losing to Weber State. Now they're on the bubble and probably looking be put out because other teams passing them (SIU for example) while other stronger teams pushing them down the list due to losing today (SDSU and Central Arkansas for example).

    Sadly enough right now 3-7 Lafayette is in the driver's seat for the Patriot League autobid.

    I'd disagree with you that Towson and Kennesaw are in right now and would instead put UND and SHSU in. Still a lot of story left to play out these last two weeks though.
