Wisconsin heads to No. 1 in poll, Augustana explodes

Wisconsin outscored Notre Dame 16–2—but have the Badgers earned the No. 1 ranking? Michigan suffers its first loss, Michigan State wins a thriller against North Dakota in Austin, and Augustana’s explosive weekend raises expectations for the Vikings.

Ed Trefzger, Jim Connelly and Derek Schooley break down the weekend, including Quinnipiac’s response against Providence, Boston University’s sweep of Maine, Vermont’s dramatic sweep of UNH and Army’s historic conference start behind consecutive JJ Cataldo shutouts.

Plus: the Ivies get underway, and we discuss what the early NPI can tell us as Thanksgiving approaches.
