2007 NCAA FROZEN FOUR

Since I have no money in this, I'll probably get all these correct. Or not.

Just like the other bracket that will not be ever mentioned again, my final four teams are all gone!

Here are the real winners: Michigan State, Maine, North Dakota, Boston College.

First of all, it's great that you can't find this stuff anywhere. Is it on CSTV? ESPNU? Fox Sports Net? Who knows? It was a crapshoot. Why do they make this so hard to follow?

Second of all, why didn't anyone show up for the games in Rochester? I thought about going to the games near my sister's house in NH (all well attended because of UNH and BC), but I could named my seat for any of the games in NY. Yeah, there weren't any local schools in it but that area is filled with hockey fans. Were the tickets too expensive? I thought the NH ones were a good deal ($72 for 3 games). I should have put on my Maine sweater and drove up there.

Clarkson losing to UMass in the first round was the biggest shock, followed by Minnesota getting beat last night in OT by the Fighting Sioux of North Dakota.

Great job by Alabama-Huntsville hanging with Notre Dame until finally losing in 2OTs. After I saw this, I knew my picks were crap. Great to see that the Fighting Irish are not only overrated in basketball and football, but in hockey too!

How about the MAINE BLACK BEARS? I was shocked that they made it. They do have the best power play in college hockey, at 24.8%. They play Michigan State, a beatable team.

Look out for BC, they could win this whole thing. They play the other ND, North Dakota.

Play resumes on Thursday, 4/5.
