Finish strong

Back when BU was 2-5 in the conference (5-14 overall), the chances of BU going into the last game of the season guaranteed to end up with a winning record seemed right up there with my chances of shaking off this hangover anytime soon.

Today we play Albany for the chance to secure the #2 seed in the tournament (if Hartford loses to UMBC) and a date with UNH next Saturday.

With so much on the line, you can be sure the Albany fans will be out full force in their $9 fake leather purple jackets - it's cold out there! The High Roller will be there in person, so hopefully we'll get an accurate $9 jacket count.

[Update - 1:58 PM]
Via the America East site, here are the seeding possibilities for BU based on today's action:

Boston University
- Will be seeded second with a win and a Hartford loss
- Will be seeded third with a win and a Hartford win
- Will be seeded fifth with a loss AND a Vermont loss
- Will be seeded sixth with a loss AND a Vermont win

Vermont is beating Maine at the half right now, so unless we win it looks like we fall all the way to sixth.
