This is not a vent board or any other kind of therapy. Before you hit the POST button, ask yourself if your contribution will add to the level of discussion going on.
Important notes on articles:
- Please do not copy entire articles into your post; rather, provide links to them.. We are now links-only for ALL Internet publications. If only a small portion of the article pertains to your post, Fair Use allows you to copy those one or two paragraphs, provided you cite the author's name and the publication for which he writes. Otherwise, put a link in the HTTP Link box.
- Even if you're copying a reference to an article, provide a link to the page from which the article came. We're trying to cut down on duplicate topics, and the posting process will check the link to your article to see if it's already being discussed on this board. At the very least, you'll save yourself some grief on the boards.
- If your first reaction after reading the article you're going to share is the author is uninformed / stupid / a jerk / all of the above, it's not worth sharing with anyone. Not every article needs to be discussed. The more the hair-pulling articles are discussed (e.g. ESPN Page 2), the more the authors will write hair-pulling articles.

I was speaking more in general - of the future excuse by NDoggie78
It's not necessarily accurate. And I think those Big 10 rankings were based more on last year. I'm not disagreeing with you. I don't think the Big10 hockey = SEC football - but I think the Big10 does
Of those ranked ahead of us, Minnesota Duluth and Minnesota State deserve their rankings - each having played 6 ranked teams - St. Cloud St., Providence, and Denver not so much just based on ranked teams they have played.
Of course, like football, they probably shouldn't even have rankings until a quarter of the way into the season
