Re: NCHC First Round: Miami University at St. Cloud State
Guys, when I said that I followed MU, I didn't say that I was a fan, lol. I don't like the MU alum I am referring to. So I'm like an ANTI-MU fan, hehe.
But that being said, I'm also not SO biased, or SO naïve or ignorant that I don't have a clue about what I am talking about when I talk about something.
You will notice that what I said was, that if the 10 games were spread out 2 in Nov, 2 in Dec, 2 in Jan, 2 in Feb, and 2 in March, that the 3 bottom Big Ten teams would win AT LEAST 3 of the 10 games, but as many as 7 wouldn't be impossible, either.
What I did NOT say was that any of the bottom 3 Big Ten teams would win more games vs MU than they would lose if all the games were played in October and November or if all 10 games were played in March.
I understand that Miami has been missing players and all, but those things happen in sports, and so, that being said, while Miami was in the midst of its 2-13-1 stretch its very likely that OSU, MSU and PSU would have won more games then they would have lost to MU during that period of time.
PSU is in its 2nd year at the Div 1 level and 1st year playing in a conf, and has made steady improvements, but obviously its going to take some time for it to get to the level that Miami of Ohio's been at. MSU is in a slump, but is less than a decade removed from a Natl Title, so like MU, they should be better come next year. OSU? I don't know, they've always been nothing better than an average to less than average hockey team. So I'd hope MU is better than them, but THIS year, during Dec, Jan or Feb, my money would have been bet on OSU. Now in March?! I'd bet on MU vs those 3, but not vs SCSU. Still believe SCSU will win this series, but it won't bother me all that much if they don't.
