Miami's skill up front will give our defenseman and goaltending a test this weekend but I'm still not sold at all on their defense and goaltending and think we can take advantage of that expecting for a home sweep this weekend.

He must just really want to see the rivalry renewed like all of us it would make for a much more competitive series than Notre Dame is giving them.

I thought everybody did go? I would guess if MacMillan didn't make the trip he probably stayed back to get in more rehab which wouldn't be a bad thing as well.

Ohio State beats Michigan State 49-37.

Agreed and now Alabama gets the field goal to tie and send it to OT.

I have watched very little of it since they showed an NDSU bball game and postgame interviews instead of one of the outdoor hockey games last winter.

Was thinking Alabama's best chance was to just let LSU score a TD on that 1st play but that unsportsmanlike conduct penalty against LSU makes it a little tougher field goal.

Yeldon just fumbled inside his own 10 for Alabama with under 2 minutes left.

Weird play in the Utah game they were about to go up 14-0 but their player dropped the ball right before he crossed the goal line and for a few seconds everyone thought it was a TD an Oregon player looked at the official and there was no signal so he picked the ball and went 99 yards for the TD to tie it 7-7 instead.

Good sweep even though it was kind of a sloppy game. Not sure how the ice conditions were but the puck really seemed to take some weird bounces and stick on players at times. Wisconsin was able to negate some of the Sioux speed at times with a lot of hooking and holding going uncalled. Watching tonight I can see why Thompson hasn't been in the lineup consistently as he was up and down and needs to find more consistency. I thought it looked like Panzarella hadn't played a game all year as he seemed to struggle with little things like gap control and stick positioning. Maybe it is Pattyn just getting healthier but I thought he had more jump tonight and looked close to what he played like last year. Nick Schmaltz showed just how good his vision is on the pass to Caggiula and good to see Caggiula finish it. Zane was solid again with a couple real athletic saves. I think Olson brings another element to this forward group that we need so hopefully he is back in the lineup Friday night.

A&M wins 41-38. Auburn got a stop and was driving with about a minute left but the center snapped the ball when the QB wasn't ready for it and an A&M DT recovered the fumble.

A&M recovers an Auburn fumble at their own 1 yard line still up 41-38 with 2:37 left.

Arizona State beats Notre Dame 55-31. Auburn is down 41-38 with 4 minutes left but has the ball at the A&M 20.

Texas A&M up 28-14 on Auburn with 10 minutes left in the 2nd quarter hopefully Auburn's luck is finally running out.

Speaking of embarrassed Minnesota did that to Iowa beating them 51-14 Iowa scored on their fist drive and then again with about 20 seconds left. Arizona State jumping on Notre Dame quick 17-3 in the 1st quarter thanks to some turnover help from Notre Dame. Looking forward to some real good games tonight with Ohio State @ Michigan State, Kansas State @ TCU, Alabama @ LSU.

I wouldn't read much into this probably a little easier for Air Force to get up for a game against #2 UND then Huntsville and it isn't like UND didn't dominate most of that game anyway just couldn't finish on chances.

I wonder why he doesn't mention that Hughes was laying on the puck trying to get a whistle because Wisconsin had been stuck in their own zone for a while. Wisconsin should just be thankful they didn't get called for a delay of game penalty on that play.

A lot of that tonight? I only listened to TH and he made it sound like Rumpel was playing pretty well and Hak said in his postgame comments that Rumpel was really the difference for Wisconsin for a while and kept them in it.

Sounded like a pretty dominating performance for the most part with a few too many turnovers seemed like Rumpel really kept Wisconsin in the game for a while. Hopefully we can convert on a few more of our chances and clean up some things defensively and finish off the sweep tomorrow night.

I agree with getting St.Clair back in the lineup I just would have rather seen him in for Murphy as he hasn't brought a whole lot to the lineup when he has been in.

Most of his penalties so far have basically just been for hitting a guy too hard which I am fine with. The combination of physical presence and skill he brings up front is something I think we need in the lineup every game when he is healthy.

Very surprised to see Olson out I thought he has been one of our better forwards in most games maybe he got banged up in practice? Makes sense to get Thompson in with his upside and since he hasn't played in a while and Mattson really seems to be the only defenseman that you could take out right now.

I believe it was posted in the prospective recruits thread that Peski visited for the Air Force game this past weekend. Sean Lafortune @SeanLafortune · 23m 23 minutes ago Peski is a slick, offensive minded defender who pushes the play and manages the powerplay. Quick feet, agile and mobile in possession.

Agreed and on Parise I saw he is meeting with doctors today Vanek will fill in on the top line for him and that Parise won't go on the upcoming road trip.
