WCHA Final 5 (6) ((5)) - You Know (I Think) What I Mean

Maybe DU, CC, and UAA will prove me wrong..but from the crappy home attendance they get I can't imagine their fans will travel.

CC averages about 6700 per game, good for 6th in the NCAA, Denver averages about 5300, good for 12th. These numbers have been consistent for years. You are correct that they don't travel well, but you might want to check your facts before you make a stupid statement about their home attendance.

Personally, I LOVE the fact that we have a Final Five with neither big ten school. Kind of refreshing.

There will be plenty of Gopher fans at the games.

I think Duluth/BSU could be an excellent game. UAA/CC does not excite me however.

UAA will bring all of their empty seats from Sullivan Arena with them to their game.

Might as well do a test run for a couple of years from now when the BTHC is up and running.

What's even more of a travesty that SCSU, the rodents, and Bucky not being there is that Wally the Beer man might not be there as well. He goes to court today!

That worked out well for DU in last year's F5.

With all due respect, this is not last year...

Congrats to BSU, for whatever reason the Beavers sure had UNO's number this year. Bakala had career games. I think UNO could have done some damage in St. Paul, but just could not solve BSU this season.

You can bet the BSU and UMD will get plenty of fan support. In any game that UND plays there will not be a neutral fan in the building. They will either be a UND fanatic or a rabid fan for the opposing team.

Correct. UND is better than DU this year.

Looks like fantastic weather this year, instead of freezing cold and snow.

Thursday: 50 (rain 50%)
Friday: 42 (partly sunny)
Saturday: 46 (partly sunny)

I think that you guys should cheer for CC since UAA eliminated you.

The true hockey fans will be there, regardless the fact that U of M TC and Wisco will not be there. Most Wisconsin fans, and some gopher fans are actually also college hockey fans.

It will be nice to see UAAs empty seats, CCs big crowd, and no one showing that they know how to spell the name of our state.

I'm not cheering for anyone. Just want to see some good hockey.

If Biddco mans up and skips his teaching, he'll be there spelling M-I-N-N-E-S-O-T-A-D-U-L-U-T-H.

I can't wait to hear the conference call tomorrow.

And if you're a die-hard Gopher fan or Badger fan, you're cheering for an arena collapse. That's it.

I will be there at the F5 along with a few other Gopher fans that are still going. We are hoping UAA wins it all.

Go Seawolves!
