Polls 3/7/05

[ben03]

it's interesting to note the USCHO/CSTV voters seem to split along #1/#5 (aka vote the PWR) while the USA Today seems to vote #1/#3 much more in keeping of polls predicting success rather than past performance (or western bias ;-)). that said knowing full well polls are useless toys for the uninformed fan ... and we're right were we should be not too high, not too low, but juuuust right.

On one hand, you shouldn't drop if you are idle and the teams around you lose.  OTOH, Cornell probably shouldn't have been 1(t) last week.  On the third hand, it just doesn't matter.  T(itle) minus 8 wins and counting.

You're probably right. I just hate to see Cornell go down in both polls after winning out the season.

Well, to be fair, we didn't beat Anybody this past weekend.[/q]

Didn't Anybody beat Brom and split with Aquafresh?

We're 5th in the PWR and that's all that really matters, even though it's fun to tell people (those few who know that college hockey exists) that your alma mater is #1 or 2 in the polls.

If Schafer were asked about it, I'll bet he would say we're a top 10 or maybe top 5 team and exactly how high we should be will be decided on NCAA playoff ice.
