2011-2012 NCAA Week 8 Rankings

[Fighting Sioux 23]

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 Monday (Nov 28) by 1pm Eastern.

Here is my top 10...

1. Merrimack - The 'Mack didn't play this weekend, and remain the only unbeaten team left in college hockey.
2. Notre Dame - The Irish split a series @ LSSU, and did not look great in their loss on Saturday
3. Minnesota Duluth - The Bulldogs were off this weekend, and play Michigan Tech this weekend in Houghton
4. Boston College - A tight victory over Yale, and BC got back to their winning ways
5. Ohio State - The Buckeyes didn't play this weeked either, and benefit from some of the top squads falling on the weekend
6. Ferris State - The Bulldogs were off this weekend as well, and are another squad that benefits by top squads falling
7. Colorado College - The Tigers played about as well as you can and got swept. Big game w/Denver this week
8. Minnesota - The Gophers had another inconsistent weekend, with flashes of brilliance mixed with frustrating mistakes
9. Yale - While the Bulldogs lost against BC, they proved that they can keep up with any team in the country
10. Nebraska Omaha - The Mavericks took three points in two tight games against SCSU

Honorable Mention:
Union
Michigan Tech
Boston University
Cornell
Denver

I was aware of the loss, but the result was not indicative of play. Yale dominated that game, but did not get good play in net. When nobody else on the cusp of the top 10 had an outstanding weekend, I kept Yale in my top 10. I do understand dropping them out though.

I appreciate the love for UNO and I very much respect your opinion, FS23, but I find myself wondering quite a bit if our coach is what instills fear in the hearts of men, and not necessarily our team itself, sometimes.

We're ungodly young and our goaltending has been rather suspect, to say the least. 18 freakin' freshmen and sophomores!

I will say this, Coach Blais was quoted in the paper here in the last week or 10 days, saying he thought this team was close to breaking out.

Wow, Minnesota's Bjugstad has 15 goals already. Looks like the Gophers are coming back this year.
