Roseau

Will Roseau win state again next year, and do they have the most talent.

[cake-eater]

No. Maybe.

[George Blanda]

Yes. Yes.

[Joey (nine toes) Marcoux]

Yes. Yes.
nuff sed.

[Goldy Gopher]

Yes. Yes.

[hipcheck]

Do they have enough talent to win in'08? I think so.

That being said, there are some mighty fine teams that didn't even make it to the tourney this year that could put a dent into the plan next year.

Knowing the Rams and the Roseau community, expectations are high. Obviously getting to the tourney is one goal, and once there, winning again is at the top of the list.

Edina should be very hungry next year. They are good.

I personally enjoy an all Northern finals.

[boblee]

We'll see. We'll see.

[DubCHAGuy]

No. Maybe their top 5-7 players but not 8-20.

Here's another question. Since 2000, how many teams that had the most talent won the state Championship in AA? I say only 2. 2001 Elk River and 2004 Centennial.

[Birdie guy]

Roseau probably has the most talent coming back in Section 8 but will be challenged by Buffalo, Brainerd, and Moorhead in the section tournament.
Pretty difficult to repeat as state champions, every team will be gunning for the Rams during the regular season and tournament.

section champs and lose in semis at state in 08

Everything I have heard over the past couple of years is that next year (2007-2008) was when Roseau was supposed to contend for a state title. Even without this year's championship run, they would be a lot of people's favorite. It will be the offseason work and desire which will determine next season's champion and I fully expect the Rams to put themselves in a position to defend their title earnestly.

[edinafast]

yes and maybe

[HShockeywatcher]

Any AA team that makes it can win, but yes, they have a good shot at repeating. We'll see.
