I shouldn't be settling for three, I know, but there's no way we sweep Miami if we play the way we did against Robert Morris.

At this point in December, looking at the standings, and after last weekend I'd be happy to take 3. If we get any pts Fri night, get back to me.

I know it's impossible to WIN all the games , but I always want the Bucks to get no worse than a split against any team at this D-1 level. If they sweep a team then it's a bonus , and if they get swept then that just SUCKS!!! LOL.

This team has to be carefull not to play up or down to any of the teams they play. There's no EASY team. I don't care how many wins in a row a team has. " GO BUCKEYES GO. " :D

This! Great teams rise above the level of their competition, not play down to it like we did last weekend against an inferior RMU team. Good thing that wasn't a league series. We need to bring our A game this weekend against Miami!

Those were 3 great days at the Joe. I remember them very well. being down 2-0 to ND right off the bat only to have them claw back to win in OT. The Miami game might be the most exciting game i have watched at the Joe. Then the title game against michigan, that is the best i have ever seen an Ohio State team play against Michigan. They dominated that game for 50 minutes and hung on by the skin of there noses. As superstitious as i am i sat in the same seat all 3 nights took the same route to my seat, only got up during the 2nd intermission all 3 nights.

probably my all time favorite OSU hockey weekend - just so unexpected. Caught a little bit of the party back at the hotel. Lots of smiling players. Good times.:)

Wow that is pretty cool. The year after she graduated Michigan won their 5th football National Championship with the great Fielding H. Yost as the head coach.. That means she was a student and most likely watching Michigan play football as an independent and when their fight song was Varsity instead of The Victors! (The Victors was dropped when Michigan withdrew from the conference because it had "champions of the West" in it, & the B1G was called the Western Conference back then).

She was proud to be a Michigan grad her entire life and grew up in the Detroit suburb of Northville but in those days all a woman could do with a college degree was teach.
The Bentley Library at Michigan found her academic records for me earlier this year which was way cool and I have her commencement book in mint condition.
Sorry to my OSU friends for the brief thread hijack with the Michigan topic.

The Miami game was classic with J.B. scoring the winning goal in OT right after the faceoff. You could hear a pin drop in the sections where all the Miami fans were. It's memorable moments like that which has me looking forward so much to this weekends games against them!
My son is a Miami alum and there's some pretty serious bragging rights riding on who wins.

note from this morning's Dispatch in an article on the Miami series

Osiecki said the rivalry will continue when the CCHA dissolves after this season. Ohio State will play in the Big Ten and Miami in the National Collegiate Hockey Conference next year. Bowling Green, Ohio’s third Division I team, will play in the Western Collegiate Hockey Association, but Ohio State will continue to play the Falcons, as well.

“I hate to see the CCHA go, but I think it is outstanding for the game of hockey in Ohio,” Davidge said. “And if you’re a pro or amateur scout, it’s going to be an ideal place to watch games with three different conferences here. It’s good for the game overall.”

Good for game overall is a party line view. Let me hear that from someone who's not getting a paycheck for saying it. They destroyed two conferences for the B1G to come about.
And of course we'll still play our in state teams with only 6 teams in the B1G, but how much will we play them?

There have been rumors out of our end that the schools have agreed to start opening seasons with a Oxford/Columbus home and home. That has always sounded like a pretty solid plan to me, we'll have to wait and see if it ends up coming to fruition.
