College hockey poll 11/20/06 - Cornell 12th (still)

[billhoward]

Losing to Quinnipiac didn't affect Cornell's 12th place standing in the USA Today/USA Hockey Magazine Men's College Hockey Poll - Nov. 20, 2006. (Maybe hockey has mulligans?) The Fighting Deer Ticks are at least on the also-got-votes list with 8.

Also: Colorado College, 15; Yale University, 11; Quinnipiac University, 8; University of Alaska Anchorage, 6; Michigan Tech University, 5; University of Alaska, 4; Sacred Heart University, 2; St. Lawrence University, 1.


Note the Florida Hockey Classic has No. 2 Maine, No. 8 UNH, No. 12 Cornell, and No. Unranked Western Michigan (not No. 15 Northern Michigan). Last year Cornell got the unranked team in first round; this year we don't. Beating both UNH and Maine would look great in our out-of-conference comparisons. On the other hand ...

Congratulations to Cornell for... giving Q it's first spot in the top 20. (It is their first, right? I can't imagine that they were voted into the top 20 in 2002.)

And this raises my question from the past week...was anyone else excited for a split second when they heard there was a movie called "Baby" coming out? ::doh::

Happy Thanksgiving!
