These ranking (whether they be the RPI, USCHO and USA Today polls) are really nothing to get excited about this early in the season. They make for nice reading and give the bloggers something to talk about. My team the UND Fighting Sioux beat MSU Spartans and then they were swept last weekend by Miami of Ohio and the Spartans still stay above UND in the USCHO poll, no bias there. All I can say is whatever. Per Brad Schlossman the Fighting Sioux have played a hardier schedule so far this season and do not play an unranked team until the Sioux go to Mankato to play the Minnesota State University Mavericks.
Michigan State (5)
Boston College (14)
Northeastern (20)
Michigan Tech (19)
Colorado College (4)
Wisconsin (12)
On the flip side of that #1 Miami of Ohio has played a much easier schedule, one could say that their schedule doesn't look all that intimidating:
Vermont
Ohio State
Nebraska-Omaha
Northern Michigan
Notre Dame (8)
Michigan State (9)
Just an FYI ... The Power Rankings are from INCH. CHN (thankfully) doesn't do "polls".
ReplyDeleteHey Donald I got the Power Rankings from the College hockey news.
ReplyDeleteI was just trying to be nice. But since you insist; I'll straighten you out. Fear not though ... this will be my last comment on your blog.
ReplyDeleteWhat you've listed as "Power Rankings from College Hockey news" are actually just the RPI (Pairwise) calculations (which you could have gotten from SiouxSports.com if you'd wanted). Inside College Hockey puts out their own product (poll) called "INCH Power Rankings" so your use of that terminology is the problem here.
BTW ... RPI and KRACH (which aren't "Polls") are dependent on comparisons and this early in the season there aren't enough comparisons to make them meaningful.
Happy blogging.
Donald your welcome to comment on any thing that you would like to comment on. That being said, does it really matter where I linked this RPI from. Sometimes I think your a little too touchy, but hey that alright.
ReplyDeleteThat was also my point of the Polls and the rankings was that it was a little too early to make them meaningful.
