Don't worry, the only school from your neck of the woods that plays the sport is the University of Alabama at Huntsville. They finished 12-23-2.

It's only embarrassing when you can't play football.

Not really - Iowa, Nebraska, Rutgers, Maryland, Indiana and Purdue don't play D1 hockey - or if they do, they suck at it.

Surprisingly wide spread - big w/ the Ivies and schools like Clarkson in the East, the Air Force/Denver/Colorado College are good and starting to make inroads in oddball places too - Arizona State started a program recently

The Big Ten hockey conference only consists of seven teams - Notre Dame + six of the actual Big Ten members (Michigan, Ohio State, Penn State, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan State). Notre Dame, Michigan, and Ohio State made the frozen four. The other team in the frozen four - Minnesota-Duluth, is from Big Ten territory but is in the NCHC.

60 total teams with the following conferences: Atlantic Hockey, Big Ten, ECAC, Hockey East, NCHC, and WCHA. Arizona State is the sole independent.

The WCHA was the dominant one, I think, until the Big Ten formed as a conference.

UNL does not have a hockey team. UNO (lovingly know as the University of No Opportunity) has the college hockey team for the University of Nebraska system. There has been occasional talk of playing hockey at UNL (particularly after joining the B1G, but money and Title IX get in the way.

Then it becomes the money issue because they have to startup and fund two programs.

You really need to step up your troll game.

Not all of us can choose whatever winning team is on top of its sport whenever we want to.

well thats because most of you don't live 50 miles from that winning team. If you did, you certainly could.

Besides, nobody questions my true bama football fandom anymore. I go to the games. I went to the national championship game

And when Saban retires, you'll look for another front-running team to be a "fan" of.

Which specifically goes against Title IX. These types of rules, laws etc.
are implemented 180 degrees from it's very clearly-written language. I
have yet to see Title IX used to force schools to have 50/50 male/female
acceptance rates.

Eliminate sexually-segregated sports and these problems disappear.
