The Tigers recent slide is reflected in the current INCH Power Rankings. The Tigers fell out of the top 20 this week but still remain "bubble-licious" and can get back into the rankings with a strong (read:winning) effort this weekend. On the opposite bench for this weekend, DU is sitting comfortably at the number 7 position, one ahead of their past opponent North Dakota. DU also clinched a home spot in the first round of the WCHA playoffs, CC is still up in the air and can get that spot if they can get the wins this weekend. CC really needs to get their confidence up for the run at the WCHA title and hopefully the I25 Rivalry will give them a chance to bring it all. Last home game of the year, we want to make sure the arena is full of gold for the game!
On a related note, here is a fun quote from INCH about our upcoming opponet...
"For nearly 20 years, we’ve had to correct people and say, “It’s the University of Denver, not ‘Denver University,’ even though that’s what their initials would have you believe.” Frankly, we’re tired of it. So to the folks at Magness Arena, we say this: “If you want people to get your name right, stop calling yourselves 'DU.'"
