The only way the sioux are going to be placed into the West regional (minneapolis), is if they take the #1 position. This means they have to take the WCHA trophy this weekend. This will leap frog them ahead of Denver in the Pairwise and national polls. Right now, Denver is the top seed, but if the sioux take are able to take care of business this weekend, then they control where they end up. (midwest is in Grand Rapids, Michigan, and will most likely have notre dame as the top seed there)
In the past, they have placed the Sioux in the North East Regional, and will most likely have to play a Boston University team to get to the final 4. So this weekends' games are HUGE
