Winning is the magic recipe for PWR success.I remember when some people were panicking in Nov-Dec about the Gophers pairwise position and our "weak" non conference schedule. I think it worked out ok.
Agreed, but I will throw in one additional qualification.... "Winning, in an elite Hockey conference, is a magic recipe for PWR Success"
Mankato is stuck at 17 because in a weak conference you don't have any margin for error.
If the NCHC went 6-5-1 vs the Big Ten this year, just one game flips, would that be the difference between Arizona St. potentially getting in or not?

well given ASU lost to (and tied) Michigan, yeah probably had they won that game 😎
If you flip that game result, they and Michigan trade places in the PWR right now. The rest won't do enough.
Honestly looking at the PWR before New Years is a waste of breathe. Its a fun discussion but it has no real basis in anything since it is still way too volatile.
Exactly

Plenty of fans used to rip PSU for their non-con schedule so...
My gripe with it was less to do with potential PWR and more to do with playing more enticing opponents.
Per Drew Cove on his Sota Pod Podcast with Nate Wells. Interesting stat -- The Gophers are 11-0 when Kurth scores a goal...

And every season so many people get sucked into that conversation. Just a fools errand to get that wrapped around an axle until New Years or better yet until mid January.
I am the official Iowa Hawkeye football fan of GPL!
Per the CHN PWR calculator, if the Gophers had won either of their games @MSU they'd currently be the #2. fwiw of course.

they'd also be #2 had they beaten Bemidji.

CHN PWR Probability Matrix has run already, looks like the Gophers haven't quite locked in a #1 seed just yet. They're left with a 3% chance at #5, and 0.5% at #6 (being the lowest possible finish, it appears).
B1G refs... corrupt, or just incompetent?

Probably because they have two chances to lose to #45.
100% why.
When will get word on Jmitts and EP? Line chart for Friday or before?
Jackson sits at 599 wins…

Bob may give an indication on his radio show, but more likely during his mid week media scrum. Both appeared to be shoulders.

Moore and Ziemer making the rounds. They were at the T Wolves gave earlier this week.
