well..  we could gripe about that..   but Many "experts" say that 
Krach should be used.  if Krach is used, Wisconsin is in as a #12 
team. Minnesota State is in as an #11 team.  And, I could be wrong, 
but it looks like even Minnesota-Duluth is in as a #13 team.  That 
would give 8 teams for the WCHA.

How many would be complaining that?  8 of 16 teams from the WCHA?
