Maybe, but 5-7 is worse than 6-5 (and FLA has one game left). Plus FLA's schedule was nasty. Georgia is a very good team but they are not consistent whatsoever. One week they look awesome the next they look terrible. It is what it is. But I would be more worried about a Georgia team than any in the Big10, other than maybe OSU.

You do mean "bad" in comparison to a normal FLA team, correct? They are not a bad college football team. They beat Georgia, barely lost to FSU, and barely lost to LSU. They weren't terrible...6-5 isn't bad. Just not very good considering the circumstances . No QB will do that to a team.

I wonder why Hayden shaw wasn't invited? He the best defensemen on Waterloo and was just on the U.S. team in the world junior A classic. Kid is averaging almost a point per game. I have to be missing something here.

I was thinking the same think. The kid is a potential home run every time he touches the ball. Time of possession killed LSU. With their terrible QB play if they don't win in the trenches they're a long shot usually.

Agreed. The blocked 22 yd FG also killed them. Their D didn't come to play today until the second half when it was a tad too late. I though Les attempted to use too much trickery. They should have closed out ND much earlier. Somewhat of an embarrassing loss for LSU. ND is better than their record however I thought LSU should have been able to win. In all fairness to ND, their lefty QB looked pretty good. Unpolished but good; much better then their typical starter.

The ND south paw looks ok. If LSU doesn't have a bunch of TO's or something they should pull away.

Agreed. It was close. Ark is a very good team that had a very tough schedule. I believe they only had one real bad loss. They played a lot of those SEC West teams really tough. Has the SEC lost in bowl play yet?

I was being sarcastic, I think Arkansas is one of the best .500 teams in the country, if not the best. Extremely tough schedule.

The same one

SEC West doormat Arkansas crushing former big12 powerhouse Texas.

Haven't seen schmaltz in a bit.

You are correct. Exact same team. The ushl all star team outshot Denmark like 4-1 too. They were way better than Denmark.

Haha, that's a good one.

I was very surprised. Canada's team is almost entirely made up of 19 year olds as well, many that were top 10 draft picks over the past 2 years. The two 17 year olds will be top ten picks. Germany doesn't have one drafted player on their team I believe. Great game by the Germans last night.

Programs with more draft picks, on average, tend to be better than programs with minimal draft picks. You happened to pick Wisconsin only because they are having the worst start in their history. Which "high end" players are you referring to and where were they drafted? Dougherty (sp?) is the only higher end player that jumps out at me and I don't believe he was a first rounder.

Pretty sure canada is the heavy heavy favorite. 11/10 odds last I read.

Haha I was going to write the same thing. I too noticed he looked a tad tight during the game (and he still was the best player on the ice ). He'll loosen up and dominate. There was one instance when tuch clearly missed eichel on a two and one. That Finnish team is pretty good. Finns always play good in tight games. It was good seeing schmaltz on the first pp unit. Other than eichel and maybe tuch, schmaltz was the most noticeable player on the ice. The puck was on his stick so much.

Agreed, that Heinen kid from du should have gotten a peek

No maybe one at most. With the increased competition between the ncaa and CHL Hockey Canada frowns on inviting college kids.

Harvard looks good though. I believe they have something like 11 draft picks on their team. I believe they are only behind MN and UND in the country.

They each have won one title. Hit the brakes on following "their" formulas. Hak has been a good recruiter while he's been here. Other teams have players decommit or leave early as well. In the past several years we've had some pretty decent seniors; knight, Kristo, parks, Macmillan (just to name a few).

Two spots, one post. That's how you get 20k.

Hopefully they don't make any cuts until Tuesday. The guys who were on the bubble did very well and the guys who appeared borderline locks did not play as well. It appeared the Matthews/Schmaltz/Hayden line did not have too much chemistry. Schmaltz was pulled from that line to begin the 3rd and replaced by Woods I believe. Oseiki may have just wanted to see different guys together. The game was pretty sloppy.

$10 correct? Anyone know how these streams are, as far as clarity?

Interesting how every game of that World Junior A Championship was available to watch except the gold medal game. Which is only available in Canada. Makes sense as neither of their teams are in it still.
