Still in 8th in the pairwise, but it's definitely a must to sweep Mankato and beat Bucky to have a shot at an at large bid. Also have to hope for no upsets in the tourneys.

UND women lose in a shootout and settle for #3 seed in WCHA playoffs.

UM-D wins the shootout. UND falls to the #3 seed.

Going to OT. UND needs win or shootout win to get #2 seed, Bulldogs need win or shootout win for #4 and home ice against Ohio State.

Sioux on power play with less than 2 minutes in game two against UMD tied 2-2. UND needs a win or shootout win to hold on to the #2 seed.

Anyone else having problems with UNO webcast. It crashed on me. Not a computer problems as I can get the Big Sky indoor track that is also on American One.

Hate the dump and chase on the power play. Need to keep puck possession.

GUTTY WIN!

Anderson needs to hit the free throws and this one is already over.

Think you have to go to Huff or Wilmer.

UND up 63-61 with 18.7 left. Need to play good D here.

I hate that they concede the rebound on free throws late.

horrible call on the travel against Webb. UND just needs to be composed the rest of the way,

Idaho State blowing out Montana St., so UND could likely sole possession of 4th at worst after tonight. Weber also up big on Montana, so the race for the top seed could go down to the wire.

Good result but ugly ending. We've been doing it all year, but I hate just conceding a rebound at the line late in games, especially when you know the guy is a poor free throw shooter.

Maybe this will encourage more high quality inter-regional FCS matchups.

That's why you add Denver too, so it's 14 football and 14 basketball/other sports. Travel partners UND-NDSU UM-MSU DU-UNC SAC-PSU SUU-NAU UI-EWU ISU-WSU The Dakota trip would be one of the easiest, along with DU-UNC.

Would be nice if we can schedule the return game to coincide with a home hockey series against the Mavs.

A few games of interest that made the TV schedule Fri, Feb 22 7 p.m. North Dakota State at Akron ESPN2 / WatchESPN Sat, Feb 23 3 p.m. Montana at Davidson ESPNU / WatchESPN 8 p.m. South Dakota State at Murray State ESPN2 / WatchESPN Denver at Northern Iowa ESPN3

I'd say the most likely candidate is UNO. Other possibilities I could see would be Drake, Loyola, UIC and Northern Illinois.

I'd concur on the NAU announcer. He was outstanding, very knowledgeable and quite complimentary of UND. This is what Midco needs to be shooting for. The webcast was high caliber. And that was a hell of an entertaining game. Huff was great as was that Rogers kid for NAU. Should be a fun rematch in Grand Forks.

The interesting thing is does this collapse the Big East and allow another western FBS football league to emerge (either the WAC or a new conference entirely).

Perhaps there needs to be some unofficial rumblings that the Nash delay is punative action related to the Fighting Sioux nickname. I believe that would be in violation of the nickname relinquishment agreement. I have a hunch a decision would be quick in coming.

Should take a look at Minot State. They have an assistant that has ties to England - Minot State's star played for the Chelsea ladies team and will be an All-American. That kind of connection could bring some real talent, especially with the opportunity to play at the Division I level. MSU won the Northern Sun tourney this year in their first season in the conference.

UND defeats Sacramento State 3-1, and moves to 8-7 in the Big Sky and .500 overall. Would be nice to get a win over one of the upper level teams, but it looks likely the team will make the Big Sky tourney regardless.
