Had my first "aha" moment today. ....living in Fargo...."Bison Fan?"......I replied, "No, I'm a Sioux Fan....I guess Hawks fan." First time it really hit me. "Hawks Nest" only a matter of time before its incorporated into UND athletics somehow. There's plenty of data out there to show the odds of what is to come with the 8th most popular collegiate athletics name.

What's acceptable? I'd say if UND doesn't have a chance to win, 6-8 points deficit within the last two-three minutes, it will be a "bad loss." UND blew NDSU out of the water last time at the Betty. If NDSU (blew UND out of the water at home ever time they played including a 30 point beating last year) blows UND out of the water it shows the trend @UNDbasketball is not where it needs to be. And needs to stop the gap before it gets worse.

UMD is barely .500 in conference and overall. UND should roll these guys. This ain't a Hakstol coached team, anything less than a sweep will be a big disappointment.

BWW North would only have it on webcast. And you'd have to imagine that a lot of places in Fargo might have the "NDSU (vs UND) Mens basketball game on" as the times overlap for the majority of the games. Probably be best to pick a place with lots of TVs (Spitfire doesn't have that many IIRC by todays standards). Just something to think about tonight.

Last year.... they played in the Betty. Supposedly the Betty holds 3,300.

Any place with Midco. So West Fargo and Moorhead. Moorhead has a BWW, Hooligans in West Fargo has some nice projectors with the games on usually.

With the teams NDSU has had the last half decade. They probably wish they had a larger stadium and were FBS. They'd probably would have won a few bowl games and maybe be playing the Gophers in a bowl this year. Every team starts somewhere.

Few hours til game time and 250+ tickets still remain. Will it sell out or will UND Fighting Hawks fans stay home and watch the hockey team beat Duluth?

The "bar" is on the West side of the stands in the middle. The veteran (smart) drinking basketball fans make sure to buy tickets on that side. It opens up to the court for an easy walking distance to your seat.

So I guess we are jumping to conclusions that the movie is really "How About We Keep Sioux." And not a historical picture of how UND lost its name.

Take what the mole says with a grain of salt.

Another thread gone bad.

Surprised you only said 15 points.

Hearing about Romos, I did so googling to try and check it out sometime. I'm getting a Romos on Broadway and one on 13th. Seems they are connected. I assuming the 13th one is the one to check out?

Yeah because clogging actual threads with this inevitable discussion that always comes up is a much better place. While the initial posts were joking around it was in response to it being discussed off topic in the football forums. And look how fast it came up again in the football forums sending those threads off topic (he moderated them here). Should be happy this thread exists. Not my fault its a topic UND fans like to discuss.

How much does the REA pull in on a weekend hockey game? $1.5 million before expenses?

They get to keep the profits and give UND whatever they want at the end. Renovating those hockey locker rooms and others ain't cheap.

Would have been fun to watch this season as they had their first FBS win, went through mid season adversity losing the starting qb, and then dominated opponents at the end of the season. Hockey sells out. Football could always use more marketing.

Take out the student section, and season tickets....They have sold about 65% of the single game tickets with only a couple days away? It's not like the Betty is very big to begin with.

^ Are you two the same person?

I can't believe how many tickets are still available for this game only three days away. And the silence of this "rivalry game" is deafening.

I guess those resources ran out?

Jacks 84 Gophers 70

Yup. Take it here:

Well the top three teams in the country reside in the east right now.
