SCSU @ BSU: Closing the Door on a Storied, Long-Time Conference Rivalry

Re: SCSU @ BSU: Closing the Door on a Storied, Long-Time Conference Rivalry

As would I.
It's not easy to sweep on the road, no matter who you are playing.
I'll be up there for Saturday's game.
Never been there, hoping to have some fun and see a good performance out of our boys.

Word of warning: unless things have changed, they have 2 cabs for the city. As in, 2 cars that are cabs. So, if you are need them at bar close, call them an hour before bar close, and leave when they show up. Otherwise, you're screwed. And you won't see a cop all weekend UNTIL an hour or so before bar close. Then they are everywhere, trolling for drunks.

Considering my father was an alcoholic, I don't drink often, so I'd be sober cab if Rabib and our buddy decide to drink.
Thanks for the info though Brent.

So maybe it's not a must sweep series overall, but if Bemidji beats us, down we go in the pairwise and conference rankings. I guess I meant a it is a must sweep series if we want to stay on top of the WCHA.

Curious what mindset Bemidji fans are in and what they are expecting and hoping for out of this series

Not really sure what to expect. If it goes like the rest of the season, it will be a 5-4 SCSU win on Friday an a 1-1, 2-2 tie or a 2-1 win for SCSU as BSU has had 8 OT games this year......

BSU just hasn't been able to finish teams off this year. They haven't won on a Friday night yet and there have been a lot of leads that have slipped away. BSU's two usually strong suits, defense and goaltending, have been a little shaky this year. Offensively, there was some fire power there at the beginning, but it has tailed off some as of late. They are fast and they work hard, they just haven't been finding the back of the net. They got blown out of the rink by Mankato, but then take three points from Denver and Nebraska-Omaha.

There is only one way to guarantee 3 or more points this weekend: We need gopherfan89 to come in here and predict that SCSU will lose the series.

Troll him to come on over. They are probably doing psychology on us.

I am going split again. BSU Friday. SCSU Saturday.

A buddy told me that I had a following on here, so here I am ...your wish is my command.

I'm just about to leave the frozen tundra of Minnesota for a weekend away in Mexico, but I'll leave you with this: I'll predict SCSU takes 3 points. Maybe that way they might not take any.

Enjoy your weekend, my disciples.

Well, I'm not superstitious, so I'm glad that Gopher fans are finally starting to understand how awesome the Huskies are. I can't wait to see what you predict for the next series!

Do you ever pick splits or sweeps?
Your last 3 predictions have all been 3 points.

Splits are too easy in my opinion. Might as well make it interesting. The flight attendant is mean mugging me though, better shut off the phone.

It's Thursday and this thread has fallen towards the bottom of page 2. Anyone care to talk some puck?

I want to say Huskies sweep, but for some reason this series feels like a split.

I feel the same way. If they have the same energy and effort they had the past two weeks then it should be a sweep. But if they go into this series with whatever mindset they had when playing RPI and Northern Michigan then we will be in some trouble...

Game Day!

I'll say the same thing I said going into NoDak: Just. Win. Friday. Then on the road, you're playing with house money. But tilt the ice your way, make BSU worry about losing the series Saturday and take that possibility out of the equation with a big win tonight.
