      Badgers or cheese, aren't they the same thing? Tough call.

        They are nearly synonymous. However, there is some cheese that I like.

            Taking this from the Colgate/Northeastern thread ...

            Colgate is as deep as anyone, and I'd say the Raiders have an edge in depth of skill (seven players with at least 30 points, versus one for UW).

            I'd say that Wisconsin has an advantage in intensity and in how well the pieces mesh.

              Unless you live in Wisconsin, too much cheese will do that to ya.

                The phrase "too much cheese" confuses me; l do not understand it.

                  A person can only eat so much 10 year old cheddar. I love Colgate toothpaste. Has there been any UW/Colgate game since the 1990 NCAA title game, won handily by UW I must add.

                    Since beer wasn't an option I went with the cheese. A nice Wisconsin cheese and a frosty glass of Paulaner Oktoberfest is hard to beat.

                          I thought I read he was still playing, just not for the Badgers anymore. Amazing guy.

                            we saw how well those kind of stats played out for BC, comparing stats from one conference to the next is apples to banana's
                            there are a lot of good teams in the ECAC, but there are also some really crappy ones

                            Wisco has no superstar(s) for the rest of the team to lean on, everyone just does their job, which makes them tough to beat

                              With TV timeouts, I don't expect depth to play too much into it, honestly. All those additional breaks mean the top two lines will spend a lot of time on the ice
                              It's a great day for hockey!
