Take for example, scUM--beat a handful of nobodies, get ranked in top 10.

WMU--crush the #2 team in the nation in a pair of games, beat an excellent BG team and beat and tie in-state rival Ferris, barely get votes.

Thank goodness for computers

Im so pissed that Robert Morris is #20 after splitting the #10 team scUM and WMU isnt ranked after sweeping the the #2 who was undefeated.

The polls aren't the Pairwise. They don't matter.

agreed, but they are good for attendance. The K-zoo public doesn't seem to consistently come out unless we are ranked highly.

Great point. Somehow informing the public of what quality hockey is coming to town on a week by week basis seems to be missing.

The USCHO poll is biased and has always been a joke.

Kinda like Paula Weston's columns

At least she's following the B1G where she can live in mediocrity

USCHO almost refuses to rank WMU and Weston never gives us any cred after 2011 CCHA semis and final at JLA. Doesn't like our students and seems to inflate Michigan whenever she can.

Plus AFM called her out after we won in Ann Arbor after she picked us to lose. He mocked her kinda.

That was amazing. I got banned from posting on USCHO for just calling her out on bias. No rude language or anything i recall.

Nope, I remember all that. Forgot it who it was, knew it was one of us. She WAS ridiculous.

Ya, the Robert Morris #20 ranking is just another example of how out to lunch and disconnected some of these rankers are.

The spilt wih #10 Michigan was a nice feather in Robert Morris cao, but what about the tie vs 0-5 Niagra and another tie vs 1-4-1 Air Force???

And Clarkson still un-ranked???

And suddenly Notre Dame is now the team on the rise, getting more votes than WMU??

I could go on, as there are several other head scratchers. O ya, Bowling Green still ranked ahead of WMU????
