who would go to the tournament
 
one starts with tim brule's    PAIRWISE COMPARISON POWER RATINGS
>  Rk  Team
> ========================
>  1   Boston University
>  2   Colorado College
>  3   Western Michigan

now we remove maine and lop off the bottom (do we lop at 12 teams or
at 6 east and 6 west ???  I've chosen to lop at 12
this gives 5 eastern teams and 7 western teams.  Who initially east?
Should it be the LAST western team (Denver) or the 3rd western team
(LSSU) I've chosen LSSU because I believe it is more appropriate for
the 4th ranked team to get the 4th bye than for the 8th ranked team to
get the 4th bye
 
 Rk  Team
========================
 1   Boston University
 2                      Colorado College
 3                      Western Michigan
 4   Lake Superior
 5                      Minnesota
 6                      Michigan State
 7                      Michigan
 8   Vermont
 9   Clarkson
10   Mass Lowell
11                      Denver
12   St Lawrence
 
now we swap the last two seeds on either side (5 and 6 west go eat and
vice versa
 Rk  Team
========================
 1   Boston University
 2                      Colorado College
 3                      Western Michigan
 4   Lake Superior
 5                      Minnesota
 6                      Michigan State
 7   Michigan
 8   Vermont
 9   Clarkson
10                      Mass Lowell
11   Denver
12                      St Lawrence
 
 
so the pairings (by the numbers) look like
     Vermont            Michigan State
     Clarkson           Mass Lowell
        BU                 CC
     Michigan           Minnesota
     Denver             St Lawrence
        LSSU               Western
 
my personal prejudice says it would be nice to swap michigan
and vermont to end up with
     Michigan           Michigan State
     Clarkson           Mass Lowell
        BU                 CC
     Vermont            Minnesota
     Denver             St Lawrence
        LSSU               Western
All 4 first round games are east versus west
No team plays a team from their conference in the quarter finals
