Let'sGoHawks!

Those media outlets MUST all have UND grads/fans working at them.

I think Rocco is going to literally skate circles around their D. He has to be so pumped to get on the ice against someone not wearing a UND practice jersey!

I think NOT playing a game makes this stuff worse. It's all we can talk about. I'd rather have the two fanbases saying how NDSU X player shut down UND Y player and how the UND RB took down that LB from NDSU to get that big first down.

10-2 UND.

One could say he is a "god" with the puck?

Yes! I remember watching that, rooting for Miami, and then those chowder-heads pull off a miracle to tie it, and that damn fluky deflection over the Miami goalie's shoulder to win the title in OT. OUCH.

Good question, I haven't heard, but the entire gameday experience will be different. We got a taste of it last year before the name came back for the rest of the season. I was at the UW series, and remember how weird it was seeing the spinning ND logos on the ice instead of the logo, and how Looker didn't say SIOUX but the students added it to announcements. Instead of a "Lets Go Sioux" chant, I can see a "U-N-D" chant becoming more popular. Strange times ahead. You wonder how long the masses will hang onto the old traditions before it feels weird. I compare it to someone dying, and you leave everything as it was before they died. Just not gonna be healthy, and after some time, you put away the deceased persons clothes and change the house around, etc. You can count on seeing SIOUX jerseys at hockey until the day you die, this I guarantee. Edit: And NO, I am not saying losing a sports nickname is equivalent to someone dying, it was just an analogy about losing something and moving on.

Agree with you 100%, even though I admit is a generalization and both UND and NDSU have had academic all americans, etc. BUT, the reason that this situation troubles me isn't really what the bonehead players did (in the sense that it is expected), it is how your leadership responded. It reminds me of the movie "The Program".

Someone take this quote from Kevin Schnepf of the Fargo Forum and run with it: http://www.grandforksherald.com/event/article/id/246208/group/homepage/

I don't feel bad at all seeing this thread. NDSU brought this on due to their inaction.

OR, we both underachieve and St Cloud or Denver wins the league. Just wanna be hot in the one and done playoffs. The loss to Michigan at the X a few years ago will sit with me for a very long time. That team was LOADED but couldn't pull it off, and a gritty, less talented UMD squad wins it all.

It is a tossup between that and "DOC Orange" for their 3rd jersey I heard.

Saw a picture of the players all dressed up in the courthouse. I thought they would wear their Bison jerseys for sympathy. Hey, it works at the University, why not the courtroom?

It is becoming clear that opponent makes no difference. The only thing that will help the Griz game is that they travel well.

Great catch on an awful awful ball.

Hendrickson is on the bench next week, we know that much. Time to win on be road where we weren't supposed to win.

Chris Mussman, thanks for costing UND this game. Trick plays and not recognizing the need to put in Hanson.

Middle of the pack.

In related news, I picked my nose.

That student ticket comment seems to contradict what someone said earlier in the thread...

Boom!

I agree with you guys.

This post made me laugh...a lot. Thank you!

No kidding! He is Ron Burgandy!

Glad Poly is in the league as well. UND and our fans will bring the pain on Saturday night! Hope you will be watching on BigSkyTV.
