NCAA Frozen Four is set

[Leroy]

Notre Dame against Minnesota Duluth

North Dakota against Michigan

Go team who's nickname I can't say because it is racially insensitive!

UNO lost a real tough one to the Wolverines in the opener. Grabbed a 2-0 lead early in the 1st, then Michigan tied it up about midway through the 2nd. Teams played scoreless the rest of the way in regulation, so it went to overtime.

That's where it got weird. Michigan goes for the jam in the front of the net, and the puck is nowhere to be seen. Ruling on the ice is no-goal.

The refs then review the play for the next 10 minutes, and while logic seems to dictate that the puck did cross the goal line fully, I didn't see any definitive replays confirming that. But, the refs say they had an HD camera showing the puck did cross the line in full, and the Wolverines win.

I don't want to be the guy saying my team got jobbed, but I really wish I could see that camera confirming the puck crossing the line, if only for closure.

Duluth is my pick to win it.

UNO will be cursed until Trev Alberts is fired.

[MrCrowesGarden]

While I can't agree with the implementation or how the process was handled, I think Alberts made the right move over the long run. It's a decision that was both bold and necessary.

I don't know if my brother actually saw the game (and now he's a UNO fan), but he said they got screwed too.

I have a hard time saying they got screwed, but it's tough when that confirming replay isn't available to fans. If they could provide it to ESPN or any other major outlet, even a couple of days after the fact, I'd love to see it. As it stands now, my gut tells me the puck must have crossed the line, but I've got no evidence to confirm or deny that feeling.

Well, he was a little miffed that both UNO and Air Force got beat on the same night, so he is a little impartial.
Edit - I meant partial.

How is Fighting Sioux any worse than Fighting Irish?

(I'm assuming you are not complaining about the Bulldogs or Wolverines here...)
