alabama destroys OSU (OSU's QB is terrible and nobody other than Auburn can run on Bama). Miss State handles MSU. Olse Miss takes down Wisc quite easily (Ole MIss defense is old and solid, Wisc couldn't run on them and I've witnessed Wisc's passing game). UGA beats Nebraska (UGA can play down to their opponents but they'll still win). Mizzu crushes the rodents, Auburn hangs 50 on the hawkeyes and A&M drops 50 on Maryland. I think we are missing some solid teams here? Kentucky and Arkansas beat all the Big10 teams except OSU, Wisc and maybe Nebraska (but it would be close). Same with SC. Kentucky can hang with the big boys as far as their O goes. Additionally you forgot LSU who would probably beat the entire big ten except maybe OSU (they already beat Wisc and played terribly doing it).

Right because they have the recent hardware to back up the attention.

It's funny to read all the SEC hater comments.

Yup, the east still has tough schedules compared to other conferences. They just aren't as strong as the west obviously. That Indiana absolutely killed Missouri's ranking. I'm just saying, any team in the country that is about to play a UGA team, more likely than not, must play really well to beat them.

Think about it the other way around, what if Missouri simply had their terrible game of the year vs Indiana (which is obviously what happened). Similar to und losing to bemidji. Who has wisconsin beat. Nebraska. Who has Nebraska beaten? Their schedule is terrible. I compare the sec to the nchc because every conference game is a slugfest, especially in the west. Every one of those west games are filled with top three round draft picks. Their schedule is such a grind.

I was talking about LSU vs wis and LSU vs fla. they both lost pretty close games, although the LSU vs fla game was a much closer game watching it. the LSU vs wis game was odd, but I figured LSU would win that game. It was actually a lot closer than I thought.

Back that up doing some analysis. They have a common opponent. 20? And the fact you said "2014 only" leads me to believe you know how good a gators team is.

Bama new #1. Makes sense

Well that's obvious, you play roughly the same percentage of non conference to conference games. I would agree looking just at win/loss records that they would be similar.

Rocco called back up.

Jordan just has to be gone. It wouldn't surprise me if Ladue takes off as well. Anyone think Caggs could bolt too if he continues his big year?

Hopefully well. He doesn't play for a high scoring team in the USHL (Fargo), however his numbers are a lot lower than I thought they would be given his age. It is his first full year in the USHL however. Hopefully it's the Brodsinski effect.

Agreed, they should get better as the year goes on. They are also missing Santini who I believe is a 1st rounder. Also, I think this just shoes how tough college hockey is for younger teams. Look at Hanafin, everyone though he was going to go gangbusters like Eichel. Although he was been pretty solid I guess, he has not been one of the best defensemen in the country, yet.

Alabama has 15. Second most ever? For hockey only. I'm definitely bowing out of this argument now. Let's proceed with non-UND hockey.

Very true.

I think so. Definitely MN hands down. LSU beat WIS after playing the worst first quarter I had seen in some time. All with freshman littered throughout their lineup. They came back on WIS like it was a video game. There isn't a huge difference between FLA and LSU. Also, FLA's freshman qb has looked ok in some games. Interested to see them against FSU if they can keep it close early.

SEC is the gauntlet. but I agree with everything else you noted. big12 and pac 12 haven't gotten the respect they deserve, except for the selection committee I guess.

I'm going to jump out of this one. were in big10 country aren't we. To me (bama fan), the big ten is so incredibly overrated. Fyi I was talking about fla not Georgia

Because in the grand scheme of things they are a decent football team. I would guess that they would beat MN, wis and Nebraska

Sheehy is going to MN, who are the others? shaw is going to und. I do agree though, sounds like minny or bc.

SEC west overrated? Right.

I said it. Excluding OSU and maybe msu, who would beat them?

So you watch college football? SEC is the gold standard, and there really isn't an argument. The previous poster was right, they cannibalize each other every year. Every other team you referenced, excluding Oregon, has a joke schedule. Even Oregon lost to an average team. Arkansas bets Arizona without doubt.

Yeah I was just messing around. It has been an awesome run for them though, I'm glad the wcha is having a nice start.

I skate with some guys who know his family quite well (Burnsville guys). They noted last year, during the state tourney, that he definitely was not interested in playing in the TC. That's the reason he chose WIS. Odd. Whoever gets him will be glad. He's awesome.
