I didn't know how much in bugged me until the PA guy kept saying it during the Frozen Four... although by the last two goals I don't care what he could have called us.

There must be someone pretty high up at BU not too bothered by it... seeing as basically every teams game jersey / sweater / shirt / uni etc just says "Boston" and not "Boston University"

As far as jerseys go... I have to say that I love the Merrimack yellow ones.

Very similar in style and execution as the classic Habs sweater. That's never a bad thing.

Yeah... if you follow the link to the poll for voting BU is listed as "Boston." ...Clearly not an informed bunch over there at THN.

I'm biased, naturally, but there were a lot of people in this forum who were equally perplexed when THN deemed Puckman the worst logo in the ECAC (behind, oddly enough, a Green D, two Red Cs, and an Orange P), when most of the community thinks Puckman is one of the best in the nation.

I'd thought THN was garbage on college hockey before that, but that really cooked their goose with me.

I can't believe we're agreeing on something, but that's just horrible. Puckman is awesome.

The use of Boston for BU seems to be increasing. Here is a series of pictures form the FF where BU is always referred to as the Boston Terriers.

Re: The Hockey News Ranks College Jerseys

FWIW when it comes to the "Boston" debate, I've seen a lot of America East (you know, our primary conference) publications that just say "Boston", although most say "Boston U."

A lot of the national championship apparel also simply said "Boston".

Re: The Hockey News Ranks College Jerseys

To be fair absolutely everything that guy said was incredibly annoying

Oh, if only you'd had a chance to see a baseball game in Nats park too... ALL of the PAs in DC are incredibely annoying... really... something has to be done.

Maybe the administration is up to something...

Yup... thats what makes them so cool! (Even though I am a Bruins Fan first and foremost)

Come on... we have Stony Brook and University of Maryland Baltimore County!

Maybe the administration is up to something...

I dont know... I think it's been that way for a long time...

Re: The Hockey News Ranks College Jerseys

No Notre Dame bias here. Their football team is probably ranked top five too.
It really does get old.

no offense to Notre Dame fans but your jersey are butt ugly. Your school has terrible colors that don't go together and the Font on the front of the jerseys is brutal. I would put Noter Dame probably dead last, not sure how they ended up 1st but whatever.

P.S. Join a conference for football ***... oh yeah you would get worked in the big ten or big east thats right...

Re: The Hockey News Ranks College Jerseys

I actually really like the Notre Dame jerseys- if only for the fact that they have (what I assume is) the school's academic emblem as a shoulder patch. I think that's cool. I wish UW would do something similar. Maybe not with our regular jerseys, but it'd be awesome to see our academic "sheild" emblem incorporated to our third jerseys. Traditionally, you can't possibly make our thirds any uglier.

with the exception of last years 3rd jersey... I haven't seen anything about htis years 3rd jersey yet but the shield would be a neat idea, or a motion W like the womens team has...
