This Week's Polls

DU jumps up four spots to #4 in Inside College Hockey's Power Rankings

DU is #11 in the Pairwise Rankings. Air Force is #1

DU is #8 in the USCHO Poll, Notre Dame is #1

DU is #7 in the USA Today Poll
LetsGoDU Top 10 SuperPoll®

1). Denver - DU now holds college hockey's mythical "Championship Belt," has defeated #1 Notre Dame, last week's #1 Minnesota & Pairwise #1 Air Force.
2). Air Force - Beat Colorado College which gives them style points with us.
3). Notre Dame - Early season loss to DU now in rear view mirror
4). Miami - Wonder if they'll film Miami Vice II in Oxford, OH?
5). Princeton - We're not actually buying any of this "Princeton is really good" crap the national college publications are selling, we just think it would be funny to see another ECAC #1 seed get trounced in the Tourney
6). Wisconsin - Your Big Ten Showcase champions. Who selected their schedule? Attila the Hun or the guy who thought that Patrick Wiercioch (6 goals, 7 assists in 13 games) wasn't ready for NCAA hockey
7). Northeastern - Raise the banner. Your RPI Hockey Tournament 3rd place trophy winners.
8). Boston College - 4 more National Championships and they'll be tied with DU.
9). Boston University - Is a Boston Cream Pie a dessert or BU's hockey schedule last week?
10).
Minnesota - The Michigan Tech of the Big Ten Showcase
Last). Colorado College - #2 ranked team in Colorado Springs

The LetsGoDU Super Poll® is a scientific analysis factoring strength of schedule, player statistics and coaching tendencies. Then Denver is automatically placed in the one hole, CC is placed last and the rest of the teams more or less settle where they might likely finish.

that's because in the grand scheme of things, it really wasn't that big.

Maybe not big in the grand scheme, but big for DU. Air Force is always a tough team to play against.

The AF win was huge. I watched the AF last year and this winner makes it that much bigger. They are a terrific team, I think tougher at this point than CC

Seems the tigers are slipping a bit. Got upset by AF and barely got by Colgate. Anyone know why they have not been playing up to par?
