NCAA National Semifinal: Adrian vs. Oswego

Re: NCAA National Semifinal: Adrian vs. Oswego

ok then I guess there would be no real advantage for either team as far as getting used to the rink size...thanks
 
Re: NCAA National Semifinal: Adrian vs. Oswego

When Adrian beat Elmira...I noticed even strength, Elmira couldnt match Adrian. Elmira only scored 4 on 4 once. Goal 1 and 2 were on a 5 on 3 and a 5 on 4 PP.

Not many teams can score on Adrian at even strength. Every team has an off game or two. One thing that concers me is even though Adrian has alot of take aways,

they give away too many turnovers. The passes need to be better and they need to control themselves and not take bad penelties. Can they beat Oswego? They

are good enough to win the title game. But they have to clean up their offensive game and make better shaper passes and not give the puck away.

Stay out of the box and we will go to the final game.


GO BULLDOGS!!!!

Well said! I wasn't able to watch a lot of the game, as I was supposed to be working :rolleyes:. But from what I have read, the 'Dawgs played a great game. As I have said before, they need to stay out of the penalty box. These men can skate with anybody, and are definitely capable of running the table. For the most part, this is the same team that played against Oswego last season. However, it's a much different team from a year ago. They have come a long way.

This should be an instant classic. And I honestly believe whoever wins this game will win the title. Mark my words. (If I'm wrong, I will buy a round of drinks for all that would venture to my humble corner of Michigan :p)

Go Bulldogs, Go!

I'll wager we will see the winner in the title game, and BTW, Hawk was wondering if a steak could be included with one of the drinks ;)
 
Re: NCAA National Semifinal: Adrian vs. Oswego

No doubt! I will say that you do not see the regular dog fans smacking as they know what type of "rough waters" that they are in right now. The teams left are all legit. That is why you will not see smack from any of the wise posters of any of the teams.

To be honest, my post was meant to generate some noise :p. I realize that all 4 teams are legit contenders. I actually expected EC to beat Adrian in the quarters. And last I checked, the Dawgs were 0-1-0 against the Great Lakers, so I still see OSU as the favorite in this match-up.

I have a great deal of respect for the other 3 remaining programs, and only hope that Adrian College Hockey can one day reach the level they have achieved.

As I have said before, this will be a great match-up, as will NU-SNC. And the Final will be a great match-up, no matter who makes it and who wins :)

Sorry if I came off as a smack-talker; that was not my intention!

Special Agent Leroy Jethro Gibbs says "Never apologize, it's a sign of weakness." You've made it to the Big Dance - you are entitled to talk a little smack...

Having said that - your dogs have fleas!!! :eek::rolleyes::cool:;)

LAKERS 5 BULLDOGS 3:D:D:D:D:D

Seriously - I expect to see a great game.....:)

Let me rephrase that...Didn't want to seem like a jack-arse who joined the board just to spew crap!

And actually, we get treated for fleas on a regular basis :rolleyes:

BTW, what is a Laker?? Curious, because I have been a Laker before and our mascot was a sea monster :cool:

Your score prediction is good, I think your mixed up your 3s and 5s though :rolleyes:

I expect a great game as well! Good luck to both teams!

I was just talking smack about the dog fans talking smack...just to get it up 2 another notch.......bottom line we all know the dogs are more than legit, I thought Elmira was gonna run the table, but the dogs must have gave them rabbies b4 the game...the dogs are BIG BIG , and evidently can skate well if they blanked elmira even up, but remeber its the fight in the dog, and I liked the way the Lakes came back to take the lead time after time against the bears,both semis will be a blast to watch, I guess on the web as stated in other threads........

All in good fun, Niner... I agree with Drafty - I thought the Soaring Eagles were dangerous and playing their best hockey the last few weeks - the Dogs deserve a treat for that even-up beat down. I do think the winner comes from this semi, I expect it to be wearing GREEN and gold... Lakers need to start strong and play smart...keep out of the box and I think they live to play another day....
 
Re: NCAA National Semifinal: Adrian vs. Oswego

I agree. The only good thing about it is better flight prices with the 2 week notice.

The other good thing about it that it give's the women's DIII Championship stand-alone status. That's good for those schools that have teams in both :D
 
Re: NCAA National Semifinal: Adrian vs. Oswego

FYI - the Oswego website is now telling folks who are calling the GOPHER number for tickets - if you ask, they will seat you in the Oswego section....so I assume that works for all four teams - if you prefer that.....
