    Unless something has changed in recent years, UND rarely gets to any of their road games 24 hours before kickoff.

    That and for whatever reason the team doesn’t do a walk thru at the stadium.  I have always thought this was odd.

    I disagree and I don’t think it was swept anywhere.  His injuries all year played more of a part than any lack of respect.  He got a lot of props on here.   I would love for him to stay healthy.  I think when he is, the coaching staff has shown they get him the ball.  Hopefully he is fully healthy Saturday.  

    I agree, when healthy is a big threat.   But unfortunately he can’t stay healthy week in and week out

    Finding a plane on Thanksgiving weekend isn't rocket science, but it may be harder than getting to space...

    Since it’s the playoffs the NCAA arranges and pays for all travel accommodations

    This is what I feared when USD beat SDSU.  they will outbid us I'm sure.

    I wouldn’t be to sure, in the past they haven’t had much of attendance in the first round.  
    I think our bid was pretty aggressive

    Und is gonna struggle mightily in the Missouri Valley next year.  Be nice for them to make playoffs this year.  Unless they make coaching changes it could be awhile before they go back.

    Ya because the big sky is so weak, whatever

    A bid was made and it was over the minimum. At that point, whether it is enough are not all depends strictly on what the team opposite of you bid.

    Spoke to Chaves after the fun luncheon today and he feels confident of the playoffs and hosting... not that I expected anything differently I guess

    I know what you mean, but you still have to bid. I believe it was sometime in the last decade that a seeded team ended up traveling to an unseeded team because the AD didn't submit even a minimum bid.

    And NDSU's bid is likely in the $700k-$900k range for rounds 2-4. I'm assuming this because I've heard NDSU makes about $300k profit on each of those games. If NDSU is getting around 25% of the net, that would put the NCAA's share around at $900k per game. Then figure that NDSU would bid under that amount just in case. Prelim round is likely bidded far less because a sellout is very unlikely due to the short notice and proximity to Thanksgiving.

    Only the first round is a bid, after the first round the highest seeded team hosts

    I asked this several weeks ago, but I don't recall getting an answer - are hosting bids opened before or after the selection of teams who make the playoffs?  In other words, do bids ever factor into which teams make the playoffs?

    I believe the bids were due today, I suspect UND will be aggressive.  One would have to guess if it plays into selection.  I have been told they first select the teams and then open the bids.

    Intro at the Alerus improved a bit. I am pumped up watching it 

    No kidding, where was that intro for the past home game.  Great video and loud
