The Tigers' 4-0 start, combined with some slip ups in the top 3, has vaulted them into the #1 spot in the nation in the USA Today, USCHO and INCH Power Rankings (sorry DU Super Poll, you're bias just like the liberal press haha). Hopefully coach Owens can keep the team focused for...the ENTIRE season with the number 1 ranking. Great to be number one, but it's only October.
