Yes. It's a relatively new elite private school. Most noted now for being the alma mater of Christian McCaffrey. They are pretty dominant in just about everything.

Kicking game is a real issue. Missed XP was deflating and essentially taking FGs off the table means going for it on 4th in instances you normally wouldn't want to. Playing indoors, I can't believe we can't get a star kicker. This was a major strength for many years.

Yes. That's somewhat based on eastern members respecting big 10 over wcha. But I think losing in semis on home ice hurts them too.

Tough to distribute the HEA teams to avoid first round matchups which I assume they still try to avoid. This only has 6 teams flying which it sounds like ncaa is hellbent on. Fargo regional is brutal for bracket integrity. In a perfect would I'd flip Lake St and St. Lawrence and Mankato and UMass. Fargo UND/Lake St. Minnesota St/Minnesota Duluth Loveland Minnesota/Omaha St. Cloud/Providence Bridgeport BC/AIC Q'pac/BU Albany Wisconsin/St. Lawrence UMass/Michigan

There aren't technically even enough teams to require a 16 team tournament. 24 isn't happening for years, if ever. There would need to be close to 100 teams to make that a possibility.

Let's just go the Oregon route and always go for 2. WIth Maag you should almost always have a chance. Maybe come up with a package of 2 pt plays for Quincy utilizing his size.

Was surprised Quincy wasn't out for that play.

Indeed. Another turnover fest from the Salukis.

SDSU up 17-3 at halftime.

Sorry, but with COVID, a regional in Loveland, all OT games essentially being ties and NCAA "common sense", I can't rule it out.

ORU wins it in OT 75-72. Great game.

Going to OT!

Hard no on melting down the current nickel, but I wouldn't be opposed to a new one based on the 2004 Lewis&Clark design, commemorating the expedition's winter in ND.

I like the quirky awards (little brown jug, keg of nails, etc.) vs an actual trophy. I think a snow shovel would be cool. Paint the blade in each team's colors. Its definitely representative of North Dakota and not as regional as a badlands or red river theme.

CBS games have never been on. That is one of the big drawbacks of those national broadcasts if you have the NCHC.tv package.

No dice on Paramount Plus. There is a hockey listing, but it only has old hockey east games from last year.

Could see the ncaa putting them in just so they don't have to fly someone to Loveland.

Nope. That's in the past. This game isn't against the 8 time champ it's against this current ndsu team. No need to add the weight of previous years to this game. Just another tough opponent on the schedule.

I wish we'd get Jackson St on the schedule. Would love to see Deion at a boosters lunch.

SDSU also got a huge break on the fumble at start of that drive.

Was hoping Quincy would get some reps today.

This was posted in the federal register on Jan. 18. It's not a Biden initiative. https://www.regulations.gov/document/OMB-2021-0001-0001/comment Comment period is still open for another 10 days.

Need the killer instinct here. Put this game away.

Alone atop the league. Who'da thunk it? What's really impressive is how well we've performed and yet there are definitely things that can still be tightened up. The three game homestead to start may be a huge blessing to create positive momentum. 4-0 is definitely in play going into Fargo.

Go for the jugular
