North Carolina Dominates Maryland, One Win From National Championship Repeat

NW was #1 in the RPI and had two one-goal wins against 3 seed Maryland. I think we demonstrated yesterday that those wins against Maryland weren't nearly as impressive as previously thought, however.
The bigger problem for me is that NW gets to play for a national championship on their home field. That's an excessive advantage given what's on the line, imo.
cameter44 I totally agree with you. That RPI system that they are using is a bunch of bull. I do not like the fact that NW will be playing on their home field. We are not going to get any calls from the referees tomorrow. We are going to have to play against NW, their fans, the referees, and the Chicago media tomorrow. Some of the analyst are also against us. There is so much bias against us that it seems unreal. It is funny that none of the media wants to talk about how Maryland got cheated at the place by the referees during the closing minutes of that game which cost them that game against NW.
I know our field hockey team won at least one of their national championships on our home field. It just happens for some of these sports that the best facilities for them are school arenas/stadiums. There doesn't exist neutral site venues that are of equal quality like for football and basketball.
