Well, I screwed up at least once (should read my posts before
I send them)...

Not quite.  If Michigan drop back to the 3rd band, we have ME, BU, FS
and BC in the 2nd band.  BU at Worcester.  But because Michigan will be
in Ann Arbor in band 3 and 1st round 1-conference are avoided, FS will
not go to Ann Arbor ...  meaning BC or Maine must ...  and play the home
team.  Maybe not so much different from last week after all ;-)
