Michigan currently is in a tie for the top of the CCHA with Lake State and
Miami.  Alaska-Fairbanks and Ohio State bring up the rear.  Michigan's record
vs. the bottom two (from USCHO) is
 
Michigan               CCHA
 
 A 10/24/96 W     5  Alaska-Fairbanks     3
 A 10/25/96 W     6  Alaska-Fairbanks     4
 H 01/10/97 W    13  Alaska-Fairbanks     1
 
 H 11/08/96 W     7  Ohio State           2
 
With another game vs. Ohio State on the 30th.  I think Michigan's non-October
performances lend some credibility to Dave's position.  And those home scores
kind of remind you of Maine.
