11OCT2008 UND gives up a PP goal at 13:55 in the first period to the Minutemen of UMass. 2 UND 3 UMass Final

After two weeks off it is time to start talking UND football once again... WWU is currently 3-3 with wins over Humboldt State, Dixie State and Western Oregon and loses to Central Washington, Eastern Washington and Western Oregon. Yes...they have played Western Oregon twice. In fact...WWU plays Western Oregon twice...Central Washington twice...Dixie State twice...Humboldt State twice...EWU and UND once. I will defer my prediction until game notes are out. GO SIOUX

Random thoughts and comments on the game today... 1) Parking was free!!! 2) Tailgating crowd was weak. Basically my family and I and some guy with a shopping cart. 3) The Alerus must have had some problems with the doors today...I bet I knocked for 10 minutes before someone let me inside. 4) The line at the beer stand was really short. 5) After the first quarter...there were still some empty seats near the fifty so we got a free upgrade. 6) The crowd never really got into the game but I think we caused two false starts for OPEN WEEK. 7) You had to make your own popcorn...I left my $4.50 on the counter. $4.50 seems really reasonable for popcorn. Don't you think? 8) The referees let the boys play...no penalties...on either team. 9) I finally won the 50/50 drawing! 10) The game was hard to follow with the lights off...but I think we won. GO SIOUX

Strong work by the ladies and Coach Idalski!

[speculation] 1) Cal Poly didn't want to travel to Grand Forks...this year or next year. 2) Cal Poly didn't want to help cover travel expenses which would have likely been higher given the short notice to book a flight/charter. [/speculation]
