Michigan State hockey slipped a spot but remains ranked in the top five nationally following a weekend series split against Boston University.
The Spartans dropped their series opener before blanking the Terriers to salvage home series split against a fellow ranked Boston University
team last weekend. That split resulted in Michigan State dropping one spot to No. 4 in both of the major college hockey polls this week.#4 in the rankings this week! pic.twitter.com/ER0yUdsNFm

Michigan State was passed by Denver, who moved up to No. 3 in this week's polls. Wisconsin remained the top ranked team and Michigan followed at No. 2.
With the split against Boston University, Michigan State is now 6-2-0 on the season. The Spartans are set to open conference
play this weekend in a road series at Notre Dame. The first game will be on Thursday, with the second leg of the series on Friday.
