I got to meet some Sioux players last Saturday in Minot as part of a meet-and-greet. It was great to meet Oshie, Duncan, Finley, Lamoureux, Chorney, and Bina. Sure was nice to get them all to sign a jersey to .

What poll are you looking at? The only poll that I find legitimately correct(as well as some meaning) on D2 ranking is the American Coaches Football Association and they had Tarleton State last ranked at #22 on September 4th of last week(before that they weren't even ranked). So please enlighten us on what poll your referring to cause in all of the polls that I've looked at I see Tarleton State being no where close to being ranked #7.

Great to come back from work unable to listen to the radio to find out the Sioux are doing great! I was getting anxious to get leave and find out. Good thing it was good news I picked UNO to beat NWMSU so congrats to them! I always grinned when NWMSU fans at D2messageboard.com were talking big and saying they were going to come to UNO's field and beat them handedly. However, since we are all Sioux fans we all know it's easier said than done when it comes to beating UNO at their home field.

I decided to take a look and it seems to be a little misleading. I saw it on the "streaming" schedule as well and when I clicked on the link to 'register' for it the only package they had for the UND//SUU game was (audio only) no video for $9.99.

Great pickup for the Sioux. Can't wait to see him dawn a Sioux jersey .

Much of the game? Yeah right! Out of all the "watching" that I did get to see it didn't even get close to accumulating to at least a quarters worth of a Football game. I'll remain hopeful by there "assurance" but if the Central Washington game is just the same then forget about it.

Despite the fact that none of us who paid for the web stream got to even watch a full quarter of the game I have to say it was a good game. I can't really gauge how good UND is since I don't really know how good Humboldt is. It was a great opening game though and Freund played very well he seemed very comfortable. GO SIOUX!!! Southern Utah is up next...after a bye week.

And it went away again for me....>.> This is a really crappy job there doing. I've never seen a web stream have this much trouble.

Nope it isn't.

It's really glitchy....keeps freezing up.

Deja Vu Dataflix? I wonder if there is always going to be problems like this.... Keeps saying "Transitioning" and "Ready" after I click the play button.

Yep I did.

I only paid for a month just to test it out. And so far...not very impressive

Yeah . I just hope the stream goes through fine with know interrupting "technical difficulties."

I could care less if the Final Five at the Xcel Energy Center gives the Gophers a home-like advantage. It's what makes it all the sweeter to watch if and when they lose to see all those Gopher fans start filing out of the arena before the 3rd period of a game is even over.

After your post I might have to start sandbagging UND in hopes of no jinxing!

1. UND - May be biased but I do know we are returning the best D-corp in the conference plus we'll finally have a 'veteran' offense of upperclassmen. 2. UMTC - They may have lost 3 defenseman but they'll return a good offense. And from what I saw towards the end of the season Frazee was stepping into his role as being the #1 goalie on the team so I think he'll be bailing the defense out in a couple of games this season for the gophers. 3. MTU - I'm not to sure whether or not there overrated but they are returning a lot of key players plus there goalie Teslak is really good. I think with solid goaltending plus consistent scoring from the offense will place MTU in the top 3. Plus they'll be getting a solid recruit that'll join the team sometime this season. I underestimated them this past season when they swept the Sioux and this year I'm definitely not. 4. SCSU - There returning a pretty good offense with Lasch and Nodl. Goaltending will be suspect this season but if the new goalie steps up they'll have another good season. 5. UW - Even though there boring to watch they will have a very good freshman class. Despite the fact they lost Elliot the goalie to take his spot(Connelly) will be ready to fill the spot. UW has probably the best goalie coach in all of college hockey. I just don't see how the new starting goalie won't have a good season. 6. DU - They've had some defection woes and I think will have a slow start of the season. However, I'm not going to be surprised if they pick up steam in the second half of the season. Even though Mannino hasn't had a overly superb season numbers as he did in his freshman year when he won a championship he's still a veteran goalie. 7. CC - Don't really know much about this team. All I do remember about the tigers was how good of a goalie Matt Zaba was. Not sure how good there offense is this year but I think they are going to struggle. 8. UMD - May have lost Raymond and Niskanen but the Bulldogs always seem to play hard every year. They won't be basement dwellers. 9. MSU - Known to have a bunch of thugs. It's sure fun to watch them when they play the Sioux since things always seem to heat up between the two I just don't think there gonna be good. No Morin, I just don't think they'll be scoring a lot. They do have alright goalies though in Zacharias and Tormey. 10. UAA - They are gonna take wins from the upper teams I just don't see them improving this year though. Plus they lost Lawson in net so I'm not to sure how good there new starting goalie is going to be.

My dad and I always love to do the Football//Hockey combo in one day. We leave Minot in the morning watching the football game, have some dinner, then head to the hockey game then head home. Always a fun day especially when it involves Sioux athletics

If she got them off Ticketmaster it would tell her in her "My Ticketmaster" page where it'll show her what events she purchased tickets for and it'll show the basic order details. But to find out where your seats are located at you just click on the link that says "More order details". Also you could've had the tickets sent to you free of charge if you picked the 'Standard Mail' option which means you'll get them sent to you at least 2 days before the event but usually you get them way earlier than that. P.S. It was vice versa AZ. The Saturday game sold out in 6 minutes and the Friday game sold out in 30 minutes.

The Minnesota series this past season was a blast especially watching the Sioux sweep the Gophers in their own home. Which the Sioux did in style. But my father and I decided to take a less risky trip cause when we went to the games we didn't have tickets but luckily my dad's friend knew this guy who was a Sioux fan or something cause he gave us sweet seats that was in the Sioux fan section and was 2 rows away from the ice. So instead of taking the risk again we're probably gonna go to the St. Cloud series.

NDSU and SDSU got invited into the Gateway Football Conference.

I'm in quite disbelief that this happened. My condolences to those affected by this.

Well we lose some yet we also win some new players it's how college hockey goes. I wasn't a huge fan of Lee's play but he did show sparks of talent at times. In my opinion he was definitely not ready to go pro but if he wanted to leave for the money and development in the AHL so be it. I think after a year or two in the AHL I could see Lee playing a couple of games for the Senators.

Well I remember when Finley used his size on a foolish Maine player and started dragging him around on the ice like he was a toy
