Minnesota State 2025-26 Season: Get To Know 'Em

Well, Augustana was certainly the better team in that series. I'd like to think the Mavs performance was due in part to schedule fatigue...no weekends off in the first half. Lets hope the guys get some mojo back after the holiday break...
 
Does anybody know why there's only one game against St. Thomas this weekend? They had a home-and-home earlier, so they'll play three games against each other for the season. Very strange.

There are three scheduling pods of 3 teams each. Every year one pod plays the other teams in their pod three times instead of four. This is due to having nine teams in the conference and is set up so every team gets the same number of league games. It’s your turn this year (Mavs, Tommies, Vikings). The other two pods are Falcons, Dawgs, Lakers, and ‘Cats, Huskies, Beavers.

This goes away next year when the Tommies leave to join the Nachos. And it didn’t exist last year because the Vikings only played half a league schedule. So yeah, this pod thing exists for only one year.
 
I haven't seen anyone talk about Mankato losing 5 of their last 6 games. I am surprised we have not dropped out of the top-20 power rankings with the recent losses to Ferris, Augustana (1 loss, 1 OT Loss), and U-Mass Lowell.

Yeah, it's been bad. Sitting #17, but in reality it doesn't matter; anything below probably 13 or 14 won't get an at-large bid. They'll likely have to win the conference tourney to get an NCAA bid.
