I was thinking about it, and I agree that the best team wasn't in the
tournament, but it wasn't Maine...it was Air Force.
 
You see, Michigan started the season as the best team, and this was shown
by their number 1 ranking in all polls and computer rankings.
 
But they tied Cornell, therefore Cornell is as good as Michigan. Cornell
then tied Army, so therefore Army is as good as Cornell, who is as good as
Michigan. Air Force then closed out their season with a win over Army, so
Air Force is better than Army, who are as good as Cornell and Michigan.
 
Congratulations Falcons! :-P
