Big long run by SAC ST. Ezekiel Graham.

UND killing themselves with penalty

Chop block penalty UND.... UND 3 and out.

INtercepted by UND

Nice tipped ball by Jay Nelson. INC SAC ST.

Jameer Jackson caught a nice ball from Hendrickson and then broke one tackle and then off to the races.

Jameer Jackson with about 30 yard catch and run for UND TD ... don't know exact yardage yet. Miller good with PAT

TD Jameer Jackson!!!

Where's AlphaGriz now?

That would be just what the doctor ordered!

I couldn't get mine to show on the tv screen at first, even though I could see It on my Mac Probook monitor. I could however see my monitor background (screen saver) on the tv screen so I knew so I knew something was clicking -- just no video. I finally figured it out when dragged the Video from the monitor to the left toward my extended desktop and sure enough it slowed up on my tv screen. So it was clearly an extended desktop display issue that I was dealing with. I am currently watching the MSU-UNC game just fine now.

I didn't even think of that... .that is too funny! I about shot my beer through my nose across the room all over my wife when I read that. My wife is looking at me with a strange look.

I will let you know after tonight. I finally went down to Best Buy this morning and purchased a computer to TV connection for my Mac. I tested out a couple shows on Hulu and ESPN3 and those worked great. Now, I know those are well established national platforms. Crossing my fingers that Big Sky TV will be as good.

Watching Idaho State get worked by Nebraska on Big Tweleven Network.

Not much of one. http://hornets.bigsk...s.com/index.php

That would be too bad. I think his parents, friends and extended family are flying up from North Carolina for the Cal Poly game.

No, I am suggesting that had UND been eligible for those dollars from the beginning in 1887* , UND, like NDSU, would have had more than 125 years to gain experience in said research. But since UND was not the designated "land grant college of agriculture," as deemed by not the state of North Dakota but rather the federal Hatch Act, UND was precluded from even making an effort to gain experience in such research. The state authorized a Medical School at UND, but all of the research units of the UND medical school are programs that could be started, with a little innovation and imagination, at NDSU, if the STATE of North Dakota approved it and there was demand for it. I mean, I could see a number of new research endeavors taking place at NDSU through partnerships with Sanford. It's not out of the realm of possibility. Thing is NDSU was never precluded from starting an aerospace school or a pharmacy school or whatever. But UND was never given even the remotest possibility of a chance to be a federal repository for those noncompetitive "ag research" funds. And that's the key, because of the Hatch Act, it's noncompetitive funds that an institution gets just for being designated an ag school 125 years ago. A comparison of competitively garnered research funds between the two might be a cool thing to see. *The Hatch Act of 1887 authorized the establishment of an agricultural experiment station, to be affiliated with the land grant college of agriculture, in each state (7 U.S.C. 361a et seq.). Research done at these stations underpins the curriculum of the colleges, as well as the programs of the Cooperative Extension System.[1]

I'll have to leave it at that. Sorry.

Not saying it's not important to the state, or any state, for that matter, just saying that it's federal money that UND is absolutely positively beyond a shadow of a doubt NOT eligible at all to receive by virtue of NDSU's designation as the state's sole recipient of those funds. We can't compete for them because the way the federal funding model is set up, we're not even allowed on to the field. NDSU can start up its own Aerospace School if it wanted to and lure federal research dollars that way, the way that John Odegard did 40 years ago with his seed of a dream at UND. There are countless other examples of things that are not duplicative to UND that NDSU could dream up and make happen and that are not prohibited by federal law to do so. UND VPs of Research dating back to Peter Alfonso have been standing on their desks shouting this message to the world but has so far fallen on deaf unsympathetic ears. Now I don't think it's a bad thing. I think it's great that NDSU gets what it gets from federal ag sources for the Experiment Stations. It just should also be mentioned that these are dollars that UND are not eligible at all to receive.

Believe every UND fan when we say what I am about to say -- loud and clear: South Dakota School of Mines was not scheduled to help our playoff chances. In fact, it will do far, far, far, far (did I say "far") more to hurt our chances of sniffing the playoffs regardless of how bad we beat them. UND fans are beside themselves with disgust that our AD persisted with this meaningless schedule filler of a game. We have never been explained the reason for this game and we are certainly not stumbling over each other to defend it as the school's ingenious master "marketing strategy" like we are seeing a lot of down south with the scheduling of some of the softer teams on the SU schedule (at $200,000 or so a head). Bottom line: We hated the scheduling of SD Mines... we wanted a definite playoff counter team in there, and whether it was a product of the transition years when scheduling was an utter challenge or because of something else we are not privy to, I cannot be more emphatic that we are not embracing it as a good thing. IT WILL ONLY HURT OUR PLAYOFF CHANCES!!!!

Ag "research funding" to support the overhead and extension agents (not scientists) at all of those Experiment Stations in every county across North Dakota, as mandated by an archaic federal law, makes it seem that way on paper, anyway.

It's kind of all over the map as far as giving, but, yes, you are right, many of the huge donations have come from alums of the Business School, which encompasses the Entrepreneurship program. But many of the medium-sized (yet sizable in their own right) gifts -- ones that are big but don't merit a press release -- come from the thousands of doctors, lawyers and engineers that UND has produced over the years. These are the gifts that keep fund-raising efforts churning between the big ones. I am most excited about engineering at UND -- of all things, especially the new School of Petroleum Engineering. Stay tuned in the very near future for big news related to that school that might make everyone's collective jaw hit the floor. Catch the spirit!

I wonder if all this drama will get special treatment on "Through These Doors" I smell an Emmy nomination?

Doesn't need to at all. But it could. And many would be all the happier to see one of the greatest rivalries in all of NCAA football resume. But maybe Kolpak's right. It was a simpler time, and you can really never go home again.

It passes the time as I sit home with 3 sick kids on a Friday afternoon. Sometimes the Internets can be nothing more than a mindless amusement. So I am not making it more serious than it is. By calling for a thread to be shut down, makes it seem more serious and is a true Bisonville move that happens when the propaganda police can't control things any longer.
