Sorry about your luck, but I'm sure it'll go eventually. I'm looking for between 2-4 or else I'd help you out.

Yup. But as for the regular season, all our sports did the same thing. Epic fail at the end of the season. Football...fail, Hockey...fail, Basketball...fail, but then made a nice little come back today and should be dancing. It's a huge accomplishment coming from where the program was 2 years ago.

Looks like one Gopher team locked up their spot in the NCAA tournament today, hopefully we can make that 2 here soon.

Yes. Much better than the other 4 seeds in the tournament, and much more dangerous because we would be at home. We are a better team at home, that's why I wouldn't be surprised at making the frozen four as long as we make it to the tournament, which I kind of doubt is going to happen.

Doubtful. No one wants to play the Gophers @ home, there's much easier 4 seeds they could play, at much better locations.

I like those brackets.

Only have 1?

7 minimum: Michigan State, Illinois, Purude...all locks, duh Ohio State locked up a bid last night There's 4 Now you have to say 3 that are in right now are: Minnesota, Michigan, Penn State Minnesota: Beat NU on Thursday and move them up to lock status. No doubt in my mind. Michigan: Beat Iowa and they'll move to lock status Penn State: I think PSU needs to beat Indiana, and then Purdue. Out and don't talk about them unless they win 2 or 3 games in the BTT: Northwestern Golfing: Iowa and Indiana See the problem is, it's not based on bids by conference. If 11 Big 10 teams were legitimate tourney teams, they'd pick 11. Obviously that would never happen, but its based on each team, not confernece affiliation. You have to realize that the bubble teams have been getting pumped lately, whereas the Big 10 has a super high SOS and the highest conference RPI (actually might be 2nd now after the Duke/UNC game) I think 7 is a VERY SAFE number. I think 2 of those 3 teams that are in "right now" will actually be in come tourney time, so 6 is feasible as well. If any of those teams lose in the first round, they are out. EDIT: MSU advances to the Elite 8, Maybe F4. Healthy and very talented Purdue also wins a game or two, no doubt in my mind. Hummel should be healthy and ready to play. They are a solid team and will beat up on a 10 or 11 seed. Illinois will also be seeded highly and beat up on a poor opponent. They play great D, but I don't see them as a threat to advance real far. Ohio State...one and done, I think they suck Minnesota....all depends on the matchup, but I think we win one, maybe 2 games at most. Michigan...wild card, I could see them making a deep run. they've beaten some top teams, and lost to some terrible ones. so streaky. PSU....sucks I'd say 5 teams from the Big 10 win their first game.

:sad: That is awesome.

Played basketball my whole life. Who says you can't be a fan of both? I know many aren't, but also plenty who are. Besides, the F5 is on Thursday Friday Saturday, whereas the regional is Friday/Sunday. If anything, I'd skip Friday of basketball if there was Sioux/Gophers at the X. I'll be back from spring break anyways, might as well go to both.

Yes they will be, especially with a win Thursday. Beat Northwestern and I'll bet you any amount of money that they are in, no doubt about it. Even a loss and we could still squeak in. Not like I'm going to watch the Gophers anyway, because the rule is that the host team can not play in their own regional. If you buy me some hashbrowns I'm there in a heartbeat

Little fella? Haha If I go to the F5 I'll definitely stop by and say hi, but I have tickets for the NCAA basketball regional so I'm not sure how conflicting that will be.

You are a fool. There is nothing that has to do with how they were in the past or how I predicted them to do this year. They are a better team than almost everyone in the WCHA, and we beat them. You're just trying to cover your a$$ for saying something so incredibly stupid and clueless.

JBSU has zero bragging rights.

I have not forgot, just being optimistic Although it was MTU, he looked like a changed man on Saturday. If Kangas plays like he did early in the season, the Gophers are far from mediocre. That being said, he might continue his 2nd half landslide and we could get rocked, I just don't see it. I don't see a high flying no defense series. We'll see.

MTU will play hard, but they suck. The talent level is so unbelievable between UND and MTU that it won't matter if UND comes out playing half-ass. I'm just trying to talk myself into thinking UND will sweep, but I would be quite happy if that didn't happen. Kind of like you predicting the Gophers to crush, you'd be happy if they didnt. SCSU is very weak, I agree with that. Perfect match up for us, no doubt. Not only are they soft, but they are scared of the Gophers. I like our chances of putting in a few in the first period and crushing them both nights. (besides, I get to go home a day earlier for spring break if we can sweep )

I never said it did. I was just pointing out that it was a big win. And I give zero credibility to someone who puts them in the same sentence as Brown. I'd like to be the guy who you are putting that money down with. Maybe there is some lucky college hockey bookie out there that you could donate to. SCSU will think about coming to play, and then come out and realize that they are scared of the mighty Gophers and Mariucci. Like I've said countless number of times, we have their number. This is basically their National Championship...which is the only reason they have any type of chance GOPHER SWEEP with Kangas allowing no more than 5 goals in 2 games. He is BACK.

UND/MTU is going to be more of a blowout than UMN/JBSU I feel like. Nope, they didn't. Kangas righted his ship (I hope)....MTU didn't have a chance, and they didn't deserve to. They were totally crushed both nights, but won Friday due to 2 or 3 of the biggest sieve goals I have ever seen. Frazee-like. Our ship doesn't need to be right to beat SCSU. They are scared of us, and we own them. 4-0 on the season. 'Nuf said

You have no idea what you're talking about if you're putting Northeastern in that same group. They are 5th in the Pairwise, get your facts straight before you post that garbage. Much much bigger win than both UMD and SCSU, especially since we beat Northeastern without Schroeder, Hoeffel, and Fairchild.

scSUCKS has no chance. None. 0-4 against us this season, they are SCARED.

No, I'm not totally sure of that. The only scenarios I changed was the Gopher games, none of the other ones. We could still beat St. Cloud, lose the play in game, and be in the tournament.

I'd kill myself before voting for a democrat.

The Gophers won the F5, making them 12th. :sad:
