Polls 2015-16

[RichH]

It will be interesting to see where we end up. The next 10 teams above us didn't help their status.

We ought to move ahead of Denver, Yale and SLU, so I'll say 12th in USCHO.  We're 7th in PWR so for the voters who use that it should also exert a pull since we are currrently "undervalued."

Lowell had a nightmare weekend -- they will drop like a stone, but I doubt we'll get above them.

UML's #8, we're #10.

USA Hockey/USA Today has the same Top 10, only we're much closer in vote totals to #9 Michigan than in USCHO. The only difference in the Top 15 is BU & Denver are flipped at 11/12.

[Jim Hyla]

Okay, okay. You've probably done all the talking about this, but here's the full results anyway.:-D

It looks like we made the biggest jump up and Yale matched our change, but going down.

UML's #8, we're #10.

Nice to get the respect, as little as it actually counts for in the real world. And luckily, our next two games are against #1 and (probably) #3 (unless unranked tOSU pulls off a big upset), so at least if we lose those, we shouldn't tank too badly in the voting afterward.

[RichH]

No lose = good news.

Michigan lost to Minnesota this weekend, so we move past them into 9th in both polls. I'll let Jim do his formatting work, if he wants.

Hey, our next opponent got 82 of 84 first place votes. Is that good? Having the chance to pop the cork for the 1970 team's Champagne Mercury Morris-style is a good challenge.

Here we are.

As of right now, we're 7 in PWR at both CHN and USCHO. Krach is 5 in both.

The 1970 team was unbeaten and untied. So in that sense the record is already safe for another year.

But I agree with your sentiment. I'm going to buy two bottles: one for protecting the record on 12/28, and one for winning the tournament the next day. Should the hockey gods be unkind, at this time of year I'm sure I'll find another occasion to use the bottle(s).

Here's to popping the cork twice in 2015! ::drunk::

[RichH]

And no change in our poll position following the Jekyll/Hyde tournament performance; Cornell remains at 9th in both polls. Michigan leap-frogs us, but UMass-Lowell falls from 8-10. Providence drops to #3 after 2 OT losses to Ivys, and BC drops from #3 to #7. North Dakota and Quinnipiac split the #1 positions.  Five ECAC teams in the top 15.

[Trotsky]

And no change in our poll position following the Jekyll/Hyde tournament performance

Wonder how high we would have climbed with just a simple win?  6 maybe?  Oh well.  "The only poll that matters..."

And no change in our poll position following the Jekyll/Hyde tournament performance

Wonder how high we would have climbed with just a simple win?  6 maybe?  Oh well.  "The only poll that matters..."

With a win over OSU (or should it be TOSU?) CHN's PWR would put us at 6.

Blarg.  Hopefully they'll learn a lesson from it.

Interestingly, I'd bet a win over Providence & OSU would have resulted in a higher ranking had Providence went on to beat Brown.

Oh well, this is all spilt milk now. Beat Merrimack x 2!

[Dafatone]

So Pairwise is now "RPI, except in the case where team A has beaten team B head to head AND has the advantage in common games, in which case RPI doesn't matter."

Boring.

It's interesting to see that the pollsters continue to undervalue the ECAC schools relative to the PWR and KRACH rankings.  It's good for about 2 spots throughout.  This isn't necessarily wrong, of course. It seems to me that a poll should attempt to rank based on a perception of true talent and not just results, especially earlier in the season.  We on eLF have a hard time believing that we're really a top 10 program at the moment so why should pollsters give us complete credit for our results to date if they think Michigan, for instance, has more talent. That said, the league wide downranking is almost certainly a result of nti-ECAC bias that has accumulated over the years (which in fairness we have largely earned).  In previous years the polls have converged to the PWR by sometime in February.  It will be interesting to see if this happens on schedule this year.

Yep, it's pretty silly. Looking at the "Pairwise Grid" is pretty pointless these days.  That said, I don't remember seeing any dramatic differences between RPI and KRACH of late, so one could say that they've converged on a system that is pretty reasonable.
