they are much faster than we are

Pattyn and Gaarder get PP time...it's open for anyone.

Sorry I meant SCSU.

Wowzers. That's the oddest thing I've heard all day. The Gophs are playing at home and the game isn't on TV. Such a weird thing. I was looking forward to watching Matthews.

Anyone know if he UM vs U18 game is on in the Twin Cities? I have Dish.

Just looking it appears this team (SCSU) has one line.

Interesting, he seems good though. That ND team always seems very overrated. BU, that's where his pops played and some of these up and coming recruits really like that new coach they have.

Yeah but there are a lot of guy that aren't the biggest that are drafted. Plus he isn't tiny. I'm saying he get's drafted next summer. He needs to come back though. Anyone know who he was injured?

Agreed. I think this year's team is really set up well for the big ice sheet, especially with our dmen.

4-1, 4-3 Sioux

http://www.nhl.com/ice/news.htm?id=739668 Anyone know why H. Shaw isn't on this listing? Is he too old or something? His output at the USHL level has been legit for the past two years, he also is playing in the world Jr A Challenge I believe.

No one. I was simply trying to note that some players will play through injury to play for their countries. That is what you were trying to convey with your initial post correct?

A lot of players like representing their country.

Who pulls in the recruits now? A&M has got a bunch of blue chippers lately. Probably more than Okl, Texas and Nebraska combined. Actually, they get more than all texas schools. Baylor has a great coach and old QB. Without the QB they are not as good as A&M right now. A&M has two very young QBs. And a bad defense

I sure hope he is back well before the WJC.

I honestly cannot wait for FSU to play someone good. This year's team is definitely not as good as last year's team. I agree that ND is always overrated however they should have beaten FSU, they passed the eye test to me as being better than FSU (only). Honestly, I hope either Bama or Miss State gets them in the playoff (obviously if the top four stays the same, which I believe it will barring a Bama melt down to Auburn, which could very well happen). Also, I do not think it would be unreasonable to think FLA could upset FSU. FSU plays everybody close and FLA's defense is very good when it wants to be. As a die hard Bama fan, I am kind of worried about playing Miss State again or Oregon. Miss State looked like they only needed about another quarter to pull off the comeback. They are a very very good team, their defense was huge. Oregon is scary for obvious reasons.

Omg. Ok I'll admit we don't see things eye to eye . But I will conclude that Barret is just not that good. OSU's schedule is soft and they play soft defenses (I did watch the MN vs OSU game last week). Barret does it with his legs....like all OSU QB's.

I guess. I also saw the outcome and the way LSU did it. Very "video game-esque". Like it was supposed to happen.

I watched the entire game. I saw who the better team was.

I do agree with you there.

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.
