2011-2012 NCAA Week 12 Rankings

For those of you who have been voting previously, here is the thread to post your "ballot" of top-10 teams. If you have never posted before, but would like to, here is where you post your top-10. If you would like your ballot to be counted, make sure to have your top-10 posted in this thread by Tuesday (Jan 3) by 1pm Eastern.

Here is my top 10...

1. Minnesota Duluth - We'll see how the Bulldogs deal with the long break with a tough road series at WMU.
2. Ohio State - The Buckeyes may have caught some by surprise in the first half, but teams will be ready in the second.
3. Minnesota - Not having Rau and Bjugstad hurt this past weekend, but the Gophers should be fine the rest of the way.
4. Colorado College - A surprise loss against Air Force, but the Tigers came back against Union w/o Schwartz.
5. Colgate - The Raiders have been pretty consistent this season, and it will be fun to watch them in the second half.
6. Massachusetts-Lowell - Lowell has the talent and drive to make a push in the Hockey East Standings.
7. Boston College - The Eagles struggled at times this weekend, but will be a player for the Hockey East Title.
8. Merrimack - The Warriors have struggled late, but will look to turn that around this coming weekend at BU.
9. Northeastern - The Huskies are arguably the hottest team in the country right now, and have won @ Michigan, Notre Dame and Minnesota, which will be key for Northeastern's Pairwise hopes.
10. Notre Dame - The Irish dominated a depleted and reeling BU squad, and getting Tynan back will only help the Irish in the second half.

Honorable Mention:
Union
Michigan
Michigan State
Cornell
Denver

As always, comments are appreciated and please post your top-10s.

Thank you to everyone who has voted already. There are about 3.5 hours left for those of you who would like to submit their top-10s and have it be counted towards the Power Rankings.

North Dakota (2): Hakstol, Sandelin
Minnesota: Blais
Colorado College: Owens
Bemidji State: Serratore
Michigan Tech: Pearson
Mankato: Jutting
Notre Dame: Lucia
Northern Michigan: Shyiak
SCSU: Motzko (I know he coached at Minnesota)

And let me tell you, we are thrilled with our Minnesota native coach here in Columbus! I am amazed at what he is doing with our program in only his second season! Oh, and thanks for the #1 vote, there, Scooby! :)
