To no one's surprise, after beating BU twice last weekend, once in regulation and once in OT, Michigan State in the nation's new No. 1 team, knocking the Terriers off of the throne.
BU (2-2-1) falls to No. 4 in the rankings. To be honest, that's not bad for a two-loss team, a team one tie away from .500. But talk about regional dominance: Michigan State is No. 1, Western Michigan is No. 2, and Michigan is No. 3. You can say that BU is the top-ranked team that's not in the State of Michigan. Other Hockey East teams that made the top twenty are BC (9), Maine (10), UConn (11), UMass (13), and Providence (15).
The BU women's team, although 0-5-0, are ranked No. 15. Wisconsin (8-0-0), who handed the Terriers two of those five losses, is the unanimous No. 1.
Next up for the BU men is a weekend two-game, home-and-away series with No. 11 UConn. The women have a Friday-night home match against New Hampshire.
