Mariucci Classic (Colgate, FSU, Minnesota, RPI) 1/3/14 - 1/4/14

Re: Mariucci Classic (Colgate, FSU, Minnesota, RPI) 1/3/14 - 1/4/14

I assume that if a game in this tournament is tied after 60 minutes and no one scores in 5 minutes of overtime, it will count as a tie for the purposes of the NCAA's official W-L-T records, but for the purposes of the tournament, a winner will need to be determined.

What is the operative rule for the Mariucci tournament? Will they go to a shootout (ugh!) after 5 minutes of overtime, or will they continue playing sudden death until someone scores?

I would imagine the dreaded SO will be in play if that happens, with us being in the B1G and all.

I suppose that makes sense, much as I don't like it.

In the hard-to-imagine case ;) that Minnesota and Ferris State win on Friday night, I don't suppose the Big Ten Network would like it too much if, at the 7 PM scheduled starting time of their Saturday telecast, RPI and Colgate were locked in a three- or four-overtime consolation game.

The best thing about an extremely painful, long wait is that once it is over, I kind of forget that it was extremely long and painful. I am so very ready to drive my wife out of the basement with that which does it like no other: Gopher hockey. Go Gophers!:D

If BTN2go is broadcasting MC games, someone needs to tell the powers that be to post them on their online schedule. Not trying to be pushy or anything, but the games ARE today and tomorrow.;)

I read on the MN website that BTN and it's online service is only doing the MN games. However there are links on MN site for coverage of the non-BTN games

I'm personally pushing the btn2go website visit count in the millions just checking to find out if they're going to put them on the schedule. It will make the difference as to whether my next check will be out to the U of M for $35 or not.

Yeah, why the Ferri$ $tate$, RPI'$ and Colgate$ of the world travel to Minne$ota in January to play hockey?

I could never figure it out.

I can't comment about the other schools but RPI coach Seth Appert is from Minnesota and likes to play Minnesota schools. RPI has also increased its recruiting of Minnesota hockey players. (Currently three are on the roster.)

BTW, you should be able to figure it out. Garrison Keillor stated that all of the children are above average. :p


Edit: I just realized that there are six Minnesota hockey players on RPI's women's team and that coach is from Massachusetts, so three is perhaps not that big. In any case, three is a lot more than New York players on Minnesota's roster.

Good for RPI. Many schools have used a Minnesota strategy. Colorado College has lived by it for years...its a core approach in Notre Dame's hockey program.

Go where? They rarely play away from home in non-league games. :p

What do you mean? Why later this month they will go all the way to TCF Bank stadium to play outside and way over to St. Paul to play in the Xcel Energy Center! ;)

Anyone know where I can watch tonight's FSU V. RPI game? Willing to pay for a stream too. I'd investigate myself but I don't have access to an actual PC until around game time and don't feel like digging around on my smartphone. Thanks in advance :)

In case it wasn't obvious...from the previous post:

"Both non-Gopher games this weekend will be streamed on Gophersports.com through Gopher All-Access."
 
Re: Mariucci Classic (Colgate, FSU, Minnesota, RPI) 1/3/14 - 1/4/14

Yeah I've used Gopher all-access before, not too bad, just make sure you cancel after the games you want to watch are done and before the next billing cycle.

Your ship has come in Major...BTN2go.com is a go for the Colgate game...me like.:cool: The Sat. 7pm game isn't listed yet, but maybe they'll get around to it tomorrow.;)
 
Re: Mariucci Classic (Colgate, FSU, Minnesota, RPI) 1/3/14 - 1/4/14

The Gopher/Colgate game is up on btn2go (tomorrow's is not up yet...I assume they're waiting so that they can then include the correct opponent).
