Sure, we can go introduce this infographic with Albany's domination in conference play -- the Great Danes went undefeated in the America East and the team is gunning for its third straight conference title. Albany has the game's most exciting player in Lyle Thompson, too. But this year's America East Tournament ain't no picnic for the Great Danes.
The Big Barbeque bubble will keep the Danes' eyes focused on the America East Tournament to ensure that Albany doesn't slip up and have to resort to one of the precious few at-large bids to The Show. And in addition to Hartford and Vermont, there's a giant land mine from Long Island -- Stony Brook -- looking to create chaos in the lacrosse world. The Seawolves already have a win against Princeton and a close loss to Duke this season, so Albany could be in for a battle if the two face off in an all-SUNY final. That's also not to say that the Catamounts and Hawks don't have something up their sleeve, as crazier things have happened during Championship Week.
