sioux rube Posted October 17, 2010 Share Posted October 17, 2010 Nice to see the women finally getting over that hump and not only competing with the top teams in the nation but beating them. With this being the last year of the Fighting Sioux name how sweet would it be for both the mens and womens teams win it all. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Upper Deck Posted October 18, 2010 Share Posted October 18, 2010 I've never really payed too much attention to women's hockey but will start taking notice (and also attend games). Congrats on the weekend! Keep your foot on the gas and don't let up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ticklethetwine Posted October 18, 2010 Share Posted October 18, 2010 After the sweep of the gophers this weekend the women should move to top 5 in the country. Just waiting for the polls to come out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

siouxforce19 Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 Half of the ECAC hasn't played a game yet. They usually start after everyone else. Yup, and saying that makes it hard for me to justify a number 1 national ranking to Cornell. I'm sure they have a good team ... but they have yet to prove it to anyone. Just a little pet peeve of mine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure they have a good team ... but they have yet to prove it to anyone. Just a little pet peeve of mine. I'm not a big fan of polls at all. They are just an opinion. I don't think that polls in the first half of the season have any meaning at all. But if a team is ranked near the top of the polls at the beginning of the season I don't think you can start knocking them down the polls just because they haven't played yet. Should a team lose standing in a poll just because they have a bye week in the middle of the season? The ECAC teams have started with a couple of bye weeks.

It's moving up where my issue is. I agree polls aren't anything but a thing to look at as a comparison tool, but I just don't agree a team should move up based on zero games played when other teams have played. I'm pretty set on this opinion, so we might as well end this conversation now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ticklethetwine Posted February 6, 2011 Share Posted February 6, 2011 Congratulations to our Women's Team for getting home ice during the WCHA playoffs. This is a first for the womens team and a great accomplishment as this program is only headed in one direction. UP baby! Great work ladies and of course great job by the coaches.

Pony1976 Posted March 1, 2011 Share Posted March 1, 2011 A place in WCHA The Final Face Off for the Sioux...a history making moment. I sincerely hope the Sioux can push the Badgers to the limit in their semi, at the very least. I'll be there and I'd love to see it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
