Can we just stop messing around now and put BU at the top of the pole?!?!?

Voters are flippin' morons.

Teams 2-5 all have losses :(

Should see it tomorrow! Enough is enough already :mad:
 
Let down / Trap game tie. I'll take it.

....and, it would be nice if y'all could get your team to travel once and face a real test :p

Televise a game or two and we'll talk.

We travel out East this season to play BC and NU, and it would be fun for those of us who can't travel to be able to watch those games. I think it would be great to get out East more, but the lack of TV coverage kinda lessens the excitement for me.

NESN needs an alternate channel. Put those games on FCS for those outside the region. Would be great for college hockey.

Hoping BTN picks up the UMN at BC game. Not sure if that's a possibility with contract rights, etc... but would be sweet.

Played at St. Cloud last weekend, go to Duluth this weekend and Conte Forum over thanksgiving. Plus they should have played Notre Dame at Compton had the Irish not shat down their legs against RPI.

You're making about as much sense as when you say BU should be ranked #1.

Well we're now a month into this thread and even Michigan Tech has more first place votes than BU. Obviously we’re filling out our ballots correctly in the Midwest. I think that can largely be attributed to the fact that most university graduates know the difference between a pole and a poll. Folks out East might want to hit the books a bit more rather than worry about rankings. Tech is undefeated and we don't even have a Steve Urkel or Jack Eichel or whatever his name is on our team. There are still three teams with 0.500 or worse records in the top-20 so what does it really matter at this point? If BU is still playing in April, then we'll have something to discuss.

Q: How does BU get ranked third after being handed a win Friday night with a BC "own-goal" off the goalie and posting a tie against a doormat like U-Conn?

NESN has an alternate channel. NESN Plus is 629 on DirecTV, if you have it. But it usually just works as a backup for when the Sox and Bruins play at the same time.

tArrogance at it's finest here. ;) ****ed #gooferworldproblems if I've seen one. Can't see my team on TV so that's why we won't travel.... Do you guys just play a flute for the FSN truck to follow you around? It's been to Houghton for crying out loud... ;)

So, you enjoy not seeing your team play?

hahaha... Yes, I prefer to see my team play. And yes, we've been very blessed in that regard. If that makes me spoiled, so be it, but I don't get as excited about games (regardless of the opponent) that aren't televised.

I see my team play every week it's a WCHA or home game if I'm at home and able. Even if I'm not have pasty.net in my ear to listen. (My wife LOVES this)

And it sure does make you spoiled. I'm excited for every game my team plays because I support my team regardless of the weather outside :P

hahaha.... So, let me see if I can piece your terribly flawed logic together.

Because my team actually has a history of televising more than a handful of games every season, it's automatically assumed (by you) that I don't "support" or "get excited" about "all of my team's games" because I prefer to see our games televised?

haha.... Dokay.

Spoiled I may be (and you'll get no apologies for that), but considering yourself a better fan because you follow a less profitable program is laughable.

Love watching games in Houghton BTW. Made that trip many times.

Totally made me laugh. But you're absolutely lying that you don't know his name. And proper posting etiquette is that you don't sign your posts. BOOM <mic drop>

:p

You're obviously still drunk from the last time you were there if you're saying you actually loved watching games in that desolate wasteland.

I'm only assuming what you said... I only know one level of excitement. The profitability of my program has no bearing, I don't give a hoot who we are playing each week. That's my point. :)
