The Sicatoka

After Tommy and Quincy we have ... We really can't afford to lose either so being conservative with them is smart.

Food for thought: Brett Favre and Russell Wilson each have as many Super Bowl wins (one) as Trent Dilfer. Having a game manager QB and a defense to go with is acceptable.

You're missing a drive. You know the one: Quincy had a long run and Mitchell scored.

So you're saying each team was missing two goalies from their roster. (When you said lost you didn't specify lost to whom.)

So did the team in Grand Forks, ND.

It's a full six pack. Wilber raised his rates when carbon composite sticks arrived.

If we had to lose him, a broken leg is a faster recovery than tendon or ligament damage. Get well Mr. Belquist.

Miami portal goalie Ben Kraws has chosen Arizona State. UND has two goalies right now: Driscoll and Feeney. UND has two goalies in the pipeline: Johnson and Hedquist. The pipeline goalies are reportedly not ready and could use another year in juniors. UND needs a goalie.

Looks like Miami portal goalie Ben Kraws has chosen ... Arizona State.

With the benefit of hindsight, I'd have brought the back-up QB in one series sooner. I, like @Nodak78, had visions of Spiders until there were under seven minutes left.

The Dukes? Watch for foul play in frozen concentrated orange juice futures contracts this week.

Tommy seemed to hit Maag for 50 and Belquist on a flea flicker for 48. He also made a great decision to not force a ball the play before the 17-3 lead. He made two long throws and something more important, knowing when to not throw and live to run another play.

Up five scores it was more important to run the clock and not show the playbook.

Could "outdoors" be working in SDSU's favor?

I've been using the "hockey benchmark": - hockey lost one pre-tourney (SLU) - hockey lost two (Notre Dame, UMich) in the round of 16 - hockey lost four players (UMass) in the semis FCS is behind pace as they lost no one pre-tourney.

NDSU has a QB on the bench that played fall season at an FBS and is ineligible for spring. He's better than what they have now. That's a big part of the expectations.

And the fans of FCS all cringe.

You are allowed to go over the 18 limit, but many schools don't have the budget to do so in these most curious times.

Navy has been the longest rumored. Lindenwood seems the most real as they are recruiting players. Lots of the top of ACHA are always rumored, but there's a big jump administratively and funding-wise from club to NCAA varsity.

Ouch.

Yup. https://gophersports.com/sports/mens-ice-hockey/roster

Ask his uncle.

Slava Demin (DU defenseman) in the portal makes me wonder what's up in mile high.
