Video guys just commented that they have a "terrific crowd," so it's probably not just you.

I was not foiled this time!!

Yes.

That was some beautiful puck handling.

Players take such advantage of that call. If they're hit from behind, they just slide their feet out from behind them and hit the ice. It's soooo easy to draw that call.

Hey, look! It happened to me again. I should stop hitting refresh unless the Sioux are in the defensive zone or the play is stopped.

I don't think I've ever been this nervous for a regular season game that's not against the Gophers.

Damn you! I hit F5 while the sioux are still in the neutral zone.

Why would you not run the ball on second or third down? The ground game brought us to that spot on the field, why give it up?

I thought Woog said it was the other ref (not Campion) that called that penalty. Not only that, but Woog said he didn't think it should have been called a penalty AT ALL, much less a 5-minute major.

2000 was the last year the Pride went to Fargo. In 01, the NDSU band came up to the Alerus Center. 02 was Omaha, 03 was Mankato, 04 was Omaha again, and 05 was a non-marching trip to Mankato, because the Mankato band didn't want to be shown up again (since they only play pep band tunes, and don't march a halftime show). This year, as already stated is a trip to Duluth.

Here's what I got. I didn't get much during the game. There are quite a few during warmups. And I didn't really take many action shots. I just got the camera a week ago and hadn't ever shot a sporting event before. All-in-all, they turned out pretty decent, but don't at all give a feeling of how great the game was. http://sugarwill.com/siouxphotos/ (Click on a thumbnail to see the full size image)

Because tonight's game is an exhibition game. There are probably fewer people watching.

That was a gorgeous shot.

That was an AMAZING defensive play by Trupp.

So, since this is an exhibition game, and stats don't count, does that also mean a fight in this game wouldn't disqualify a player from next weeks game?

As far as I've heard, there will be a different goalie for each period.

Geez, the Sioux are going to be playing a bunch of 23 year old Canadians.

It was a great ending to a mostly depressing game. It's really not fun watching the defense get destroyed like their offense seemed to do to UND the whole game. Chappell really looked like he was in horrible, horrible pain when he first came off with his injury. It was pretty amazing to see him fighting through it, but you could still tell he wasn't comfortable. But then watching him just run away from the MSU DBs on his 81 yard pass was incredible. The heat was nearly unbearable. It was 88 degrees with a 91 degree heat index. Not football weather at all. I've got some halfway decent pictures of the game that I hope to get up somewhere within the next couple days.

Mankato's website says single game tickets aren't available until an hour before game time, so I think I'm going to have to get tickets when I get there. I don't remember this game ever being sold out, but since it's homecoming, who knows. Anybody think it'll be a problem to get in?

Go to the Div2 section and sort by strength of schedule. Look at the team in the top spots in the list.

I seem to recall he had 722 yards before today's game. So that would put him at 976 for the season.

This is what's great about college sports. Glad the radio guys are making it seem like we're actually there.

I guess they don't want Chappell to break his own record. Because we know he could.

Did Auggie switch quarterbacks? I didn't recognize the name they just said there.
