Goon Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 No faith in UNH. I know they beat us but UNH = University No Hardware. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sagard Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 I placed my hex on UW instead of you guys this year. I think I have DU getting cooked by some smart kids. Their goalie just looked like a disaster last weekend, and I know bad goalies when I see them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dakotadan Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 I have Wisconsin, Denver, Bemidji and North Dakota. The Sioux beat the Badgers for the Championship. That is also what I put down. I am pretty confident in UW and DU making it. BSU over Miami and UND over BC were tough picks but I had to go with the local teams. Would love to see a UND/BSU matchup in Detroit! If the guys can keep up the play they have had these last few weeks, there is no reason we shouldn't be hanging another banner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YaneA Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 My picks for the Shiverin' 16: Wisconsin to beat Vermont Northern Michigan to beat St. Cloud. Northern Michigan to win West. Denver to beat RIT. Cornell to beat UNH. Cornell to win East. BC to beat Nanooks. UND to beat Yale. UND to win Northeast. Miami to beat UAH. Michigan to beat Bemidji. Miami to win Midwest. In the Frozen 4: UND to beat Miami. Cornell to beat NMU. UND to win #8. Go get 'em, Sioux! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sioux-cia Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 I predict the only WCHA teams to make it to the Frozen Four are North Dakota and Denver. The other two teams will be Northern Michigan, , and Miami. Northern Michigan makes it to the final two and the Sioux kick their azzes for #8. I've been paying heed to my sick Michigan patients. I admit I've got a horrible head cold, too. My cognitive processes are clogged with snot!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jloos Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 Distribution of picks to date Big love for UND, no surprise. Somewhat surprisingly, Sioux fans have slightly less faith in the Beavers than KRACH. No faith in UNH. Michigan tore up the CCHA tourney and Ft. Wayne is a lot closer to Ann Arbor than Bemidji. I would like to see them win, but do not find it likely. My picks: Wisconsin to beat Vermont Northern Michigan to beat St. Cloud -= this is the most surprising, how can anyone pick St. Cloud? Wisconsin to win West in the easiest bracket IMO. Denver to beat RIT. Cornell to beat UNH. Denver to win East. - Another relatively easy bracket for Denver. Even with their bad play they should easily beat RIT and Cornell. The Sioux kept Cornell to around 15 shots both times they played. A hot goalie is Cornell's only chance. BC to beat Nanooks. UND to beat Yale. UND to win Northeast. - A homer pick, but UND is obviously playing well. My head says to pick BC, but I am going with the heart. Miami to beat UAH. Michigan to beat Bemidji. Michigan to win Midwest. - Tradition, experience and a hot team win. In the Frozen 4: UND to beat Michigan Wisconsin to beat Denver. UND to win #8 and we here whining about three WCHA teams in the frozen four for the next 12 months from the rest of the country. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xI Hammer Ix Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 UND to win #8 and we here whining about three WCHA teams in the frozen four for the next 12 months from the rest of the country. Sounds good to me. If other teams don't want 3/4 teams in the F4 to be from the WCHA, here's a plan.... Field a better team and beat us! Until then, quit you're b****ing. If that happens of course Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Picked Wisconsin, Denver, Miami and UND in the Frozen Four, the Sioux to win it all. I did St. Cloud the favor of picking them to win their first NCAA game and went with the friendly Beavers to beat the harmless Wolverines in first round of their regional. I'm all done giving props.

jimdahl Posted March 26, 2010 Author Share Posted March 26, 2010 As the picks are about to close... A comparison of Sioux fans' picks vs. KRACH probabilities The biggest takeaways, one of which I mentioned above: [*]99.4% of Sioux fans pick UND to beat Yale, a figure 26% higher than KRACH. Lest one conclude that all Sioux fans are always homers, only 65% picked UND to beat UNH last year, despite KRACH calling it a draw. [*]The biggest difference between Sioux fans Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

richthorpe Posted March 27, 2010 Share Posted March 27, 2010 If Taz boy is right and RIT win again today, I vote that this man become Honorary Bracket champion for the East regional... Afterwatching the East regional live yesterday, I am happy for RIT fans... They are some great fans and really know how to get behind their team... Esox Fight on Fighitng Sioux, Ride the Pony to Denver.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
