April 11, 200916 yr Good luck to Miami of Ohio against Boston U in the NCAA Men's Hockey Championship game. The Frozen Four finale is on ESPN at 7PM tonight (Sat. 4/11/09). RedHawks facing formidable foe in finals Top-ranked Boston University 20-1-3 since Jan. 16 By Pete Conrad, Dayton Daily News Staff Writer Updated 3:29 AM, Saturday, April 11, 2009 WASHINGTON, D.C. — Earlier this week Miami University hockey coach Enrico Blasi tried without much luck to convince the media that his RedHawks should be considered the underdog in their NCAA Frozen Four game against Bemidji State. After a 4-1 victory over the Beavers, Miami has another Frozen Four game and this time, Blasi won’t have trouble convincing anyone. If the RedHawks want to win the school’s first NCAA championship tonight, April 11, they’ll have to do it against the team universally acclaimed as the deepest, most talented team in college hockey. The Boston Terriers, the NCAA Tournament’s overall No. 1 seed, came from behind to beat Vermont 5-4 in the second semifinal Thursday. That victory makes the Terriers 20-1-3 since Jan. 16. They are undefeated (16-0-2) in their last 18 games away from home. This will be Boston’s 10th appearance in the national championship game.

April 11, 200916 yr GO HAWKS/SKINS! They actually play in the CCHA, with the likes of Notre Dame, Michigan, Michigan State, Ohio State, BGSU and others. Real tough division. Should be fun to watch down here tonight. Their coach, Enrico Blasi, really built up a great program. This is supposed to be a "rebuilding" year, so it's been a hell of a season for being a rebuilding season. They've acquired the nickname of "The Brotherhood" and are really the only sports team that ever matters here. First time a Miami team has ever been in a championship game in any sport, which is absolutely amazing to me. CAN'T WAIT! GO MIAMI!!
April 12, 200916 yr this is thee most exciting game/tournament in college sports hands down, blows away the watered down pro game. very exciting, i enjoyed the whole game, even if it broke my heart for miami. i am not gonna say the "c" word, i feel too bad for them, but they did. aww well. anyway congrats to miami for even being in that enviable position, it will only help recruiting in the future.
April 12, 200916 yr Great game, feel bad for my friends who went to MU, but damn.. what a choke job..
April 12, 200916 yr BU stuns Miami (OH) in OT to capture NCAA title Exciting game but I feel bad for Miami U. After Miami builds up a 3-1 lead in the third period, Boston U pulls their goalie with 3 minutes left in regulation. Boston scores two goals in the final two minutes to send the game to overtime. The last goal with only 17.4 seconds remaining! So close!
April 12, 200916 yr The silence in the bars down here tonight was something I will never forget. The guys deserved to win. Heartbreaking.
April 13, 200916 yr The silence in the bars down here tonight was something I will never forget. The guys deserved to win. Heartbreaking. They played a good game, but you don't "deserve" anything in sports, you earn it. And they couldn't finish the deal.. 2 goal lead with a minute left, championship teams finish, and Miami didn't. It was a great run, but they were beat by a better team.

It was a great run, but they were beat by a better team. Miami skated for 59 minutes as the better team and deserved to win the game. Do not get me started on the 2 garbage goals (1 and 4) that Boston fell into. There was no skill attributed to either goal. A lucky carom off a Miami defensemen for both. Can you equally tell me Boston deserved to win that game? No, they were lucky, and anyone on either team knows it.

Yes, but luck is part of the game.. you aren't entitled to anything in sports, you earn it.. and BU earned the championship.
April 13, 200916 yr those were no garbage goals. no way. bu pulled the goalie, it's gonna happen every time in that situation. you gotta suck it up and be ready. miami was not. they relaxed. also, they were visibly tired. they did not clear the puck around the goal at the end when they had chances. then they compounded their letdown by continuing into ot shellshocked and flat. i've seen this happen in hockey lots of times. sure there was luck, but it was not one goal, it was two! you cant coast on a lead and when the goalie was out bu rose to the occasion to take advantage.
June 4, 200916 yr is this 7' guy any good or just a tall guy.?. http://www.chicagosports.rivals.com/viewprospect.asp?pr_key=68248&Sport=2 One of the top 50 recruits in the country and the sixth best center in the '09 recruiting class. Dambrot has things looking pretty good in zip town! :clap:
June 24, 200915 yr Read more at http://www.auroraadvocate.com/news/article/4614033 MAC hoops tourneys to be scaled back about 11 hours ago by David Carducci Record-Courier Reporter The Mid-American Conference's inability to find a comparable home for its women's basketball tournament has forced a rollback of both men's and women's tournaments for the next two years. In a move based on cost-cutting and gender equity, the conference's Council of Presidents voted last week to revert back to the formats used from 2000 to 2006, maintaining full 12-team fields, but with first-round games back at campus sites. Every men's and women's tournament game had been played in Cleveland in each of the last three seasons. Only the final eight teams in both tournaments will advance to Quicken Loans Arena in 2010 and 2011.
June 25, 200915 yr Last year, the men's tournament brought in close to $800,000 in revenue compared with $17,000 from the women's event. According to Kent State University Athletic Director Laing Kennedy, the league could not consider cutting back the women's tournament without making the same changes to the men's. Good job Title IX. If women want equal treatment in sports as men, then they should have to compete against them. The reason womens sports can't bring is as much as the mens is the same reason a D3 basketball game doesn't bring in as much as an NBA game. People don't clamor for 7th graders getting equal spending on their basketball games as UNC games.
July 18, 200915 yr Can't wait for football season to start.. Hope we don't get creamed too bad by PSU the first week.. Fear the roo yo..
November 23, 200915 yr Let me bump this thread to let everyone know that OHIO football is now 8-3 and bowl bound!! OHIO will take on the Temple Owls for the MAC East title Friday, November 27th at 11:00 am on ESPNU! Winner will advance to the Championship game at Ford Field in Detroit!
November 23, 200915 yr Let me bump this thread to let everyone know that OHIO football is now 8-3 and bowl bound!! OHIO will take on the Temple Owls for the MAC East title Friday, November 27th at 11:00 am on ESPNU! Winner will advance to the Championship game at Ford Field in Detroit! I saw that when I was looking at the standings yesterday...amazing. When I was there, my football Saturdays usually consisted of going somewhere to watch Ohio State play. I attended 1 OU football game while I was there...and that was in Huntington against Marshall to see Randy Moss play...
November 23, 200915 yr C-Dog, Love the Harvard on the Hocking avatar, I have a similar tee-shirt! I saw that when I was looking at the standings yesterday...amazing. When I was there, my football Saturdays usually consisted of going somewhere to watch Ohio State play. I attended 1 OU football game while I was there...and that was in Huntington against Marshall to see Randy Moss play... I would someday like to see the majority of OHIO students and alumni actually cheer and care for Ohio THE State University rather then the bigger younger brother up Rt. 33. Ohio has always had one of the best attendance rates in the MAC for football, we just need the students to care more, but I think it is starting to change!
December 2, 200915 yr In decisive fashion too. 35-17 over a very good (I can't believe I'm saying this) Temple team. Now onto Detroit to play Central Michigan in the championship game!!!
December 2, 200915 yr Go Bobcats! Now can they get Solich to stay? or has he rehabbed his career enough to move on?
December 3, 200915 yr Solich will stay. He has publicly stated that he wishes to retire at Ohio. He is probably less desirable to another school now that he is in his 60's anyway.
December 4, 200915 yr That's good to hear, OU will never be a national powerhouse but it is good to know that we will have winning and competive teams for the near future.
December 29, 200915 yr i watched the game -- yeah there was a valiant comeback -- it was too bad ou lost to we are marshall: http://scores.espn.go.com/ncf/recap?gameId=293600195
March 9, 201015 yr MARCH 10-13th this year! Downtown Cleveland. http://www.theqarena.com/events/mac_tournament_100310-13/ Should be a lot of sports fans/tourists Downtown this week.
March 9, 201015 yr http://www.urbanohio.com/forum2/index.php/topic,22452.0.html See the posting above. If OU manages to make it the title game there will be several hundred well lubricated Bobcat fans already downtown...
March 10, 201015 yr I thought i heard or read somewhere that tickets were being gobbled up last week. Actually, i think the field is really competitive this year. I think the MAC is better than in recent years. IN the past 5 years, only home teams would win, no matter how bad teams were...this year teams were actually winning on the road. I will be down at Flannerys tomorrow night for the KSU pre-game party.
March 11, 201015 yr I use to go to pretty much every Eastern Michigan home game. But I only made it to one this year :(
March 12, 201015 yr http://www.cleveland.com/sports/college/index.ssf/2010/03/ohio_universitys_bassett_hound.html OU knocks favorites Kent State out of the MAC tournament 81-64. I wish I could have watched the game it sounds like they were on fire.

I wish I could have watched the game it sounds like they were on fire. I watched, unfortunately...The OU point guard went OFF, I think he finished with 38
March 14, 201015 yr Ohio University made the NCAA tournament as a #14 seed. They will play the #3 seed Georgetown on Thursday at Providence.
March 15, 201015 yr Now I see why rider said C-Dawg was making tourney anticipation entertaining... Gray said it best: "Where ignorance is bliss, 'tis folly to be wise."
March 19, 201015 yr Loves it! Other than being an Ohioan, I have no attachment to OU. Way to go Bobcats! Loved watching Vandy get upset as well.
March 19, 201015 yr WOW I just clowned my dad and all of his college buddies with the most jack ass text messages. It has been a long time since Ewing and Iverson! (Hibert is not the same caliber of pro)
March 19, 201015 yr p.s. could you imagine if O.U. makes it to a match up with Ohio State and wins? They'll be no end to C-Dawgs comments. edit: just got a text message from my buddy adetunji who plays for O.U. talking smack saying, "see you in the sweet 16!!!"... lets go buckeyes, take care of business.

I'll probably end up getting banned here! haha If it ends up being Ohio versus Ohio State, I'm going to St. Louis come hell or high water. Or maybe Athens since I heard Court Street looked like Halloween tonight and they had to call in riot police during the middle of exam week. As Dan Patrick said, "They don't need a reason to party in Athens, Ohio, but they have one tonight." Sure don't, still looking for my dignity that I lost at "5 fest" two years ago.
March 19, 201015 yr Woot! The look on the Hoyas players faces were priceless. The best part was these players were all business like they were expecting to win big. No big eyes from the bright lights of the dance.
March 19, 201015 yr I think I lost (what ever little of) my dignity (that I might of had left) as soon as I received my acceptance letter! fixed that for you..... I put a little dignity away in a box in my closet at home for after graduation...
March 19, 201015 yr Don't push it but it's a great win for Ohio University. "You don't just walk into a bar and mix it up by calling a girl fat" - buildingcincinnati speaking about new forumers
