John, thanks for running the alternative case. If I understand correctly,
the changes
you mention have no effect on the following PWR you posted Monday:
10 St Lawrence
11 Ohio State
12 Michigan
13 Northern Mich
14 Princeton
Then my guess about the implications of Michigan winning the quarterfinal
round in two games rather than three was wrong, . . . and a well informed
coach
with a staff of highly trained computer gurus should not have chosen a
strategy to
win in three games rather than two. The various effects of BGSU falling out
of
the TUC category were apparently not enough to make a difference or were
offset by other changes.
Bob
