Well, when you put it that way the Bison should be in the BCS Championship game against Oklahoma!!! Although they lost to UC-Davis, UND, and SCSU. Two of them DII teams....AHHHHH!!!!!!!! My predictions for this weeks games: GVSU 24 Kingsville 27 (This game is basically a toss up, both teams are great, should be some good football!) UND 41 UNA 40 The only way UND will win is if they outscore UNA. I think they have to go five wide and spread the field, I'll be there yelling like a mad man, and if UND finds a way to win I'll be helping people tear down the goal posts!

I'll miss Ed's football commentary, but I won't miss the pompous @ss of a person that he is. I could do UND football games though. Give me a mic and I would go on and on about roosters in the barn, and going to the well one to many times. I hope they find a good guy to replace him.

All I can say is wow. Winona deserved to win, but UND just came up with one more play than Winona in the end. I do have some problems with the offensive playcalling in the second half, pretty horsecrap if you ask me, but a win is a win. PS: I was over browsing the Bison board and all they can do is talk about what an embarrasment UND is to the NCC. I can't believe how unclassy some people can be when a rival university has some success.

Only 7,000 at the Al for a home playoff game?
Wilbur replied to fightingsioux4life's topic in Football
I know for a fact that some students bought tickets, but when they heard the game was going to be on TV they just decided to forget the five bucks and watched it on TV. I heard something about how they sold like 8,000 tickets and then decided to broadcast the game or something like that, but I'm not certain about that. I agree that its a great idea to show the game on the fighting sioux network this weekend! Black it out in Grand Forks so people who are in the Grand Forks area who don't like Ed Schultz, and won't listen to the radio broadcast will attend the game. As for me, I'll be home in Minot for Turkey day, and if they don't televise it I'll have Eddy at my side. -
I think that we get more shots off on the power play when we have guys moving around. There was a lot of standing still going on the first part of the year on the power play, but now guys are finally starting to move a little bit with and without the puck. I thought Friday night we made strides on improving, but then we just went back to zero on Saturday. The triangle really works well for the gophers though, and I think UND should give it a try. Put Schneider or Fuher out on the point as the trigger man with Zpar and Murray on the wings and and Bobo and Fuher/Schneider pounding it out in front of the net we could score some goals. But I'm not the coach, let Blais figure it out.

I'll predict that UND will win the game 28-21. UND's defense has been solid but they seem to be suseptible to giving up the long play once in a while. I read somewhere that it is pretty easy to pass on Pitt St. and if thats the case Bowenkamp should have a field day with the recievers we have. Good luck to the Sioux, were all for you!!!!

I'm actually pretty suprised that NDSU didn't get in, with Pitt. State losing yesterday. It would of been fun to see a UND-NDSU meeting in the playoffs, but I guess the football gods put a rest to the DII rivalry for good. If they had beaten SCSU they would of ended up #2 in the region and then we would of had the possible matchup at the Alerus in the second round.....would of been a dandy. So what do people know about Pitt State? They didn't impress me a couple years ago when they came to the Alerus and UND completely dominated them. Are they still a mainly run the ball, throw when we have to team??? Looking forward to the post.

Tough loss for the Gophers, but they'll still be the team to beat come March and April.

I'm worried about this game more than any other game this season. The Sioux have guaranteed at least a share of the conference title, but USD is a pretty decent team. My little brother is in the NDSU marching band and he said that USD moved the ball pretty well against NDSU last weekend, but just fvcked up when they had the opportunity to score. USD has nothing to lose, UND has home field in the playoffs to lose.

I voted for outdoor, but there are sometimes when outdoor football games are absolutely horrible because of the weather. I mean I don't mind rain or snow, but when the wind chill comes into factor it makes the games unbearable. On a day with no wind chill, outdoor football will always be #1.

As far as Brady Murray smiling I see the kid smiling all the time. At the Ralph when I was waiting in line for tickets he and Jordan Parise were laughing with each other about Matt Greene driving that van around like a lunatic.
-
Hey, where is the Gopher Sweep selection??? Being serious though, I expect a split. UND will win the first night, but the gophers will come back and win Saturday.
-
People just show up for the last quarter of the UND games, because thats when they pull out their miracles. Why would you go to the first part of the game and get your hopes down.....please.....

I'm thinking of making some t-shirts for a group of guys, and we're thinking about the top ten reasons to hate the Minnesota Golden Gophers, here are a couple of ideas we have, but we'd love some input. 1. Doug Woog 2. Frank 3. Austria fought for the Axis 4. The memory of Matt Duhhmarchi 5. Lucia's Mullet 6. There arena is collectively known as...."The John" 7. Ballard tried to take Lundbohms clothes off 8. The Potulny brothers 9. Did we mention Doug Woog 10. Nodak rejects? Yeah, some of them are weak, but thats why I need your help!!!!!

Looking forward to an excellent weekend of college hockey. I won't be at the Saturday night game, but I'll be watching it on TV from Fargo. Parise is in the nets tonight looking to build on his perfect record. I'll predict 4-1 Sioux.

Okay, I was listening to the coaches show and they said something about what Pat Behrnes (Omaha's coach) did in Grand Forks back in 1996. The people that called in were still pretty upset about this, my question is, what did he do that was so bad?

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANDERSON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANNNNNNNNNDDDDERSON!!!!!!!!!!!! AAAAAAAAAAAAANNNNDERSON!!!!!!!!! Suck *@#$ I hope its Schmitty, but I wouldn't be suprised if our old friend Derek Shepard showed up.

I have nothing positive to say about Ed Schultz. Talk about a person who goes with the flow of things. A couple summers ago I built a deck with a guy and the only thing he listened to on the radio was Ed Schultz. Back then Ed was leading the conservative charge, and now because money is on the table he magically takes a liberal approach to issues, and has started Bush bashing. He lost my trust when he went on the Dean Blais rage last year. I have never seen a radio personality go absolutely ballistic like he did. Dean decided to stay with his team and probably would have gone on his show another time, but Ed being the pompous ass that he is decided he should act like a three year old.
-
I'll give the nod to UND then. Cammalleri is pretty good, so we should be playing on Saturday night!
-
Kollar is a sieve. I can't believe blaiser stayed with him as long as he did either. I think Brandt can get the job done, and as far as Sophie goes, he can sell his pads to pay for his college.

what players is mich losing??
