The Undefeated and the Winless

[magicman]

Oops, I forgot that game counted.

Sadly, for Greek Tragedy, it does count.  There's always the possibility of an upset as Yale isn't having that great of a season, but still the D1 boys will be tough to hang with.

Big weekend for me on the losing side

12/8  Franciscan 0-6 @ D'Youville 0-6

Hope heck... THIS is a game that counts!!!!!!!

[smedindy]

Franciscan has just a 12% chance of springing the 'upset' according to Massey. On the return game in Ohio in January, they're up to a 29% shot.

They have a 1% higher chance of beating Muskingum at home on January 2nd than beating D'Youville on the road tomorrow.

Only 1 game Friday night in Pool action:

Winless Pool

Elmira lost at St. John Fisher 52-43 keeping a smile on zander's face.

There was some blood in the unclaimed ranks as 3 more teams were stricken from the lists.

[Ethelred the Unready]

Question:

If 2 or more teams finish either winless or undefeated, is the "winner" declared based on point differential?

Or is the $1,000,000 prize split equally?

A playoff is held to see who loses

[hopefan]

Winless meanderings....

Keuka needs to come off winless list, beating Morrisville  59-50 on 12/5

Penn State Abington needs to come off winless list, beating York Pa 90-71 on 12/5

Houghton is not listed in D3hoops (East Region) and should therefore be ineligible for recognition

Winless Elmira does have 2 games with winless Houghton scheduled... a great opportunity for Elmira to get off the list

Winless Regis and winless Southern Vermont are scheduled to play twice

Winless New England College plays Maine Maritime (just off the winless list)  twice

Winless Regis and winless Mass -Dartmouth play on Jan 2

Winless SUNY Maritime plays Vaughn, record unknown, on Jan 9

Winless Franciscan and winless D'youville play twice

Winless Franciscan and winless Muskingum play Jan 2

Winless Principia and winless Blackburn play twice

Winless Northland and winless Martin Luther play twice

Winless Methodist and winless Piedmont play twice

[magicman]

hopefan,
Houghton is the newest member of the Empire 8 conference and is in transition to D3. If you go to any team page of a current E8 member such as Ithaca for example and bring up their schedule, you can click on Houghton. When you do so, their team page comes up and says they are in the East Region. 

I think D3hoops just hasn't gotten around to fixing the East region page yet.

[hopefan]

Thanks Magic.. I'm falling behind the times...hopefully Pat will hear us and get Houghton on the East Region page

                          PAT  !!!!   

[Mr. Ypsi]

With the football semi-finals today, then the Stagg in just six days, Pat may have more pressing matters at the moment!

D'Youville 68 Franciscan 65

D'Youville scored the last 4 points of the game in the last 24 seconds, the 3 pointer to tie missed.
