NCAA weekly polls are out again:
Boston College is solidly #2 in the nation in both polls now. They're even starting to get some first place votes. Tonight is the first round of the annual Bean Pot tournament between the four Boston-based teams at the Garden. BC is looking for their fifth straight Bean Pot title.
Providence keeps dropping each week it seems. Now they're #8 on the USCHO.com poll and #9 on the USA Today poll after a 2-4-2 record in January. They're off until next Tuesday and need a big push to end the year. They have six Conference games left, and four are against two of the weakest teams, so that will hopefully give them some confidence going into the playoffs.
Yale has settled in at #13 in both polls and might have to win their Conference to get back to the NCAA Tournament.
