Well, here we are. Your thoughts on all/some/or a couple of the games this weekend...
Gold
#4 Mo State vs. #2 GVSU - A win could move them into the #3 spot...
#4 Mo State vs. Nebraska
#11 Iowa vs. #15 ISU - Iowa can take 3rd place with a Sweep of ISU, and have a chance at moving into the top 10; ISU can take 4th with a sweep of Iowa.
#12 SIUE vs. EIU; 1 win clinches a bye for second place in the division
#12 SIUE vs. #2 GVSU; Has the advantage of playing GVSU last after two very tough games against Mo State and Mizzou
Mizzou vs. #2 GVSU - A chance for an underrated Mizzou team to crack the top 15
Silver
SIUE Silver vs. McKendree - Can SIUE-Silver notch their first ever win vs. McKendree? A win for McK clinches 1st in Silver (would win Goal Differential tiebreaker vs. Marquette)
Mo State JV vs. Marquette - #2 vs #3 in the Silver
Western vs. Wheaton
Bradley vs. ISU JV
Interleague Play
NIU vs Northwestern
Other Games of Importance
#8 RMC-Maroon vs #9 Lindenwood - a sweep may knock RMC out of the top 10 and LU into the #7 spot

kich, i agree with you. mizzou is underrated, but the game vs gvsu isn't a chance to get ranked top 15. it should be a chance to be top ten. same for siue. its doubtful, but who knows.

I agree with you wholeheartedly. Unfortunately, what it should be isn't always the end result. Everyone in the league knows that Mizzou can hold their own. We know that on a first hand basis. The bias is so strong for the Northern teams that other teams wont get in. Mizzou should have cracked the top 15 a couple rankings periods ago, but many pollsters just look at wins, instead of the whole picture.

well put. mizzou almost beat them.



anyone know about the siue.gvsu game?

58 to 30
positive, read the sheet

CKich30 that was one hell of a game you played yesterday.

It sure is nice to see you playing well.

I wish I could have stuck around to congratulate you in person.

SIUE vs GVSU shots were 23 to 65 according to the score sheet. Still a solid game for you, Kich.

I have to give MU's Van Gels props too...... seems like they both played very well vs Grand Valley. good job guys.

A great example of how the difference between a good gold team and a good silver team can be goaltending. I know there are other factors sometimes too so you don't need to respond and list them. That is a credit to these guys doing such a great job in net.
