And WMU is #2

Sorry Minnesota, but Michigan is the center of college hockey right now.

Apparently the MSU-BU game on Friday night on espn2 was the 4th highest rated college hockey game of all time on ESPN, including national championship and Frozen 4 games.  Highest rated since the 2018 NC game

Any push for Nebraska to go varsity?  I think NU-Omaha has a D1 program?

Nice to be ranked I guess, but it's probably short lived since the rest of the Conference is ranked higher.

Minnesota sweeps the Irish this weekend; Badgers and Wolverines split in Ann Arbor.

Surprised this was 8-pages back. Anyhoo, fresh off another Wisconsin/Ohio State women's final (Wisconsin back-to-back champs; four straight WI/OSU finals), the Men's tournament starts next weekend. Michigan is the top overall seed, Michigan State is #3, and Penn State and Wisconsin are also in. Michigan could face Penn State in the second round, and Wisconsin could face Michigan State.

North Dakota is the overall #2--old school WCHA. Denver, Minnesota State, and Minnesota-Duluth round out the former WCHA.

Also, Minnesota has cleaned house for its men's and women's programs: both head coaches are out. Or, as SFIrish put it, they Zamboni-ed their coaches.

As long as MSU doesn't have to play OSU, I like our chances

MSU is 1-3-1 against OSU, and otherwise 15-3-1 against the Big Ten
OSU is 3-1-1 against MSU, and otherwise 5-14 against the Big Ten

There appears to have been another phase of realignment in the not too distant past. 

What's an Augustana?

Bentley, Denver, UConn, Dartmouth and North Dakota get quasi-home games.

And why is this FF event taking place in Las Vegas? 
U RAH RAH! WIS CON SIN!
