I would certainly hope that this wasn't the reason that Brown didn't play
well.

I sense a big problem for Brown. If they can't play well at home, especially
at this time of year, what can a team or even a coach do? They are
a good enough team to make it to Lake Placid. The question is whether or
not they can prove that. IMO, they need some more confidence in their play
and they must show it to their fans. (if the fans show up, that is :-) )
Their loss to Clarkson last week probably shot that confidence to pieces,
not to mention last night's blown lead.
 
If Brown wants to get to Lake Placid, they need some confidence. If they
want to get to the NC$$'s, they need to get to Lake Placid.
