I hate it. Just go to the traditional baseball double elimination* Archived Message Posted by CanHartlebHireSnider on May 20, 2025, 15:33:16, in reply to "the tournament format is pretty insane." Previous Message 3 team pools, and per the B1G website, if there's a tie in the standings, highest seed advances. Basically, Michigan's season is already over, but they have to play UCLA on Thursday. If Illinois wins tomorrow, they go 2-0 and win the pool. If Illinois loses tomorrow, UCLA either: - Beats Michigan to go 2-0 and UCLA advances - Loses to Michigan, everyone is 1-1, and UCLA advances.

I agree that it would be a heavy lift to do that kind of tournament. - ATL May 20, 2025, 16:51:00 Ten frames?
