New Poll Predictions for 1/10

Re: New Poll Predictions for 1/10

But seriously where do you put them?

The only thing IMHO that is pretty much concrete is the top two are:

1.Oswego (15-2) with wins over Elmira (2), Utica (2), Plattsburgh, and Geneseo
2.Manhattanville (12-3-1) with wins over Norwich, Adrian, Amherst, Hobart (tied Williams)

The win over Adrian means nothing in terms of regional rankings. Mville is 11-3-1 for those purposes.
 
Re: New Poll Predictions for 1/10

I tried to piece together what the first NCAA poll might look like right now and I had a really hard time placing every team in the ECAC West outside of Manhattanville. How much creedence is the SOS card going to boost the ECAC West teams with so so records? Where should they all fall? Because honestly I can't tell you, not that anyone can because the numbers are subjective.

But seriously where do you put them?

The only thing IMHO that is pretty much concrete is the top two are:

1.Oswego (15-2) with wins over Elmira (2), Utica (2), Plattsburgh, and Geneseo
2.Manhattanville (12-3-1) with wins over Norwich, Adrian, Amherst, Hobart (tied Williams)

After that it's all over the place.

Who's next? (not in particular order, just maybe the next tier)

Plattsburgh (10-4-1) with wins over Norwich (2) and Neumann (tie with Elmira)
Hobart (8-4-1) with wins over Elmira, Oswego, and Neumann
Utica (11-4-0) with wins over Manhattanville, Hobart, Amherst
Williams (7-2-1) with wins over no one really (tied Manhattanville)
Geneseo (10-3-2) with wins over Neumann, Hamline, Hobart, and Plattsburgh
Bowdoin (8-2-0) with wins over Castleton and UMass-Boston

Then who?

Norwich (8-4-1) with a win over Bowdoin and a tie against Amherst
Neumann (8-4-3) with wins over Elmira, Utica, and Manhattanville
Elmira (7-5-3) with wins over Utica, Manhattanville, and Neumann (tie with Plattsburgh)
Castleton (10-2-0) with a win over Norwich

Having done this now...I think Williams and Bowdoin belong in the third tier.

It's an absolute mess right now.

I agree a mess.......no Adrian Prez?? What did ya see that did NOT impress ya??
 
Re: New Poll Predictions for 1/10

Oh, God, here we go again.

How many times do we have to explain that ths USCHO poll has NOTHING to do with the NCAA committee that picks the playoff teams? A billion times? A trillion times? Or, are some people so dense, they create human black holes...

OH my all knowing and powerful Jaslow. I am glad that you sit apon your high throne and cast down on us unintelligent good folk when we write something wrong. I use to give you alot or credence on your articles and knowledge but I guess I misread all your articles that didn't have any pictures in them. I usually don't critize others writings for I respect their options and enjoy their thoughts. But I guess this sit has become nothing more than lets brow beat everyone to prove that they know the nothing.

He's talking about the East. Methinks you have taken too many pucks to the head. Yes, he mis-typed, but the dead-giveaway was no SNC mentioned, either.

Agreed. I knew this and looked over it for the time being. I also eliminated Geneseo, Plattsburgh, and Oswego's results vs Western teams.

Gustavus #13?! OVERRATED! They could barely complete a pass on Saturday and looked TERRIBLE. Can't believe they stay in after that weekend. Just sad. :rolleyes:

If you have been reading this site as long as you claim, you would know all about the differences between the polls and the committee. So spare me your diatribe for your own shortcomings.

P.S. Learn how to spell or type slower when your head is about to explode.

well the pucks may be it, but more likely the smoke for the last 20years, and they did get banged up pretty good out east......ps liked the open letter to the team, as an ex player it rang true for sure:p

Russ... why bother?
 
Re: New Poll Predictions for 1/10

So......Mville embarrases Norwich in Kreitzberg and Norwich is ranked ahead of them. OK that makes sense. That's why these polls are a joke.


Buffalo State "embarrased" Plattsburgh at the Stafford and the Bengals aren't ranked and didn't receive a poll point while Plattsburgh is...That logic doesn't fly here.

Both teams have gone down totally different paths since that Buffalo win! Remember: What have you done for me lately?

I wasn't arguing for Buffalo State, I was making a point that Manhattanville being ranked lower than Norwich doesn't surprise me all that much.
