--- Quote from: Penguin Nation on February 21, 2022, 02:55:45 PM ---Maybe someone who knows more about this than me can explain why the #1 seed likely faces the top seed (#5) from the first round? It seems that being seeded fourth (where the highest seeded opponent possible in the quaterfinals is the 8th seed) is more advantageous than a higher seed?

I'm pretty positive they re-do the brackets for the quarterfinals and the #1 seed plays the lowest remaining seed. If you notice, those brackets in the quarterfinals aren't connected to the first round brackets. So CSU will play the lowest seed that wins

Makes sense. Thanks.

Yes, You have give it up for this team. They could have folded like a cheap suit after all the close games they've been in and falling to 10-10, but instead they have fought through all the adversities and have become a team capable of beating anyone! Two more wins on the road would be fantastic, but I'm thinking at least a split and 19 wins heading into the tournament would be nothing to sneeze at! Way to go guys! You've made us Penguin Proud!

Who should we cheer for ?
PFW vs Oakland
CSU vs UDM
I know the main thing is for YSU to win but can't help scoreboard watching. Sorry Ron Potesta.

Definitely want CSU to win. Them losing 1 or both games does nothing for YSU or anyone else for that matter beings they've already clinched the #1 seed. Need to keep Detroit in the rear view mirror. If they win both games and YSU doesn't win both of theirs, they are going to jump ahead of YSU. If they win 1 game and YSU doesn't win either game they are going to jump ahead of YSU.
The PFW vs Oakland game is a tricky one. Need PFW to lose both and YSU to win both and YSU jumps to the #2 seed, otherwise it's probably best if they beat both Oakland and Detroit
