Greenbayguy Posted March 28, 2011 Posted March 28, 2011 YUM,thats the classiest beer on the bottom shelf! Yet better than Milwaukee's Best. Quote
roper1313 Posted March 29, 2011 Posted March 29, 2011 The parallel that I don't like is that in 1997 there was an undisputed favorite heading into the Frozen Four, Michigan, and we all know how that went for them. In 1997 there wasn't a independent observer that wouldn't have put money on Michigan. This year I think it's the same thing. Unless your a fan of Michigan, UMD or Notre Dame, the money is going to be put down on the Sioux. Quote

When it was announced that Tim Hennessey wouldn't be in St Paul, my heart sank, as a Sioux victory seemed so much less possible with Tim not there. In '97, BU beat favorite Michigan, and then UND beat BU. If the parallels to 1997 hold, then UMD wins. Quote
MafiaMan Posted April 9, 2011 Posted April 9, 2011 I was just going to say the same thing, star2city. In 1997, BU beats Michigan by 1 goal only to quickly be forgotten about as they lose title 6-4 to Sioux. I'm cheering for the Bulldogs tonight, but the reality is this: If the Bulldogs win 4-1 or 5-1 against a Michigan team that has trouble scoring 2 goals a game, Sioux players and fans are going to wonder for a long time what could have been. If Michigan wins tonight, everyone says 'cinderella story' and goes home thinking 'well, I guess it was destiny just like 1997 Sioux.' Quote

It scared me.. superstition or not... Next year #8! Quote

star2city Posted April 10, 2011 Posted April 10, 2011 How right you are! Since it was down to just two, made it easier!! Quote
MafiaMan Posted April 10, 2011 Posted April 10, 2011 And so the comparison to 1997 is complete. Hopefully this year's Sioux team that paralleled Michigan's 1997 team will parallell Michigan's 1998 team next season. LOL! Quote
NWCatSIoux00 Posted April 10, 2011 Posted April 10, 2011 When it was announced that Tim Hennessey wouldn't be in St Paul, my heart sank, as a Sioux victory seemed so much less possible with Tim not there. I was listening down here in NW Missouri and my wife said "What's happened? You look like we lost before the game started.". I sort of felt like we did. 1 Quote
