They will be on FCS. (Unless you watch them on DirecTV, then all bets are off, as evidenced by this past weekend.)

Since Minnesota will play the 7pm game on Friday, the game that determines who plays them will be 7pm on Thursday. It wouldn't be (and never has been) fair to have a team play 7pm on Thursday, then turn around and play 2pm on Friday. That's always what happened when Minnesota was the 2 or 3 seed going into the Final Five. Since the 4/5 winner would play the #1 team, which the Minnesota Rule pushed to the 2pm game, the play-in winner had to play a game on short rest. This new schedule of having two quarterfinals is actually better for scheduling, and for the Thursday teams, than the five-team format of the tournament.

Just last night, I think.

Yup, that's what we needed tonight to get BSU to the Ralph instead of UW. A Gopher win (which we got) and a Bemidji win (which we're waiting for). Bemidji goes ahead 5-4

4-4 now. BSU just tied it up on the PP. (No buffering issues for me)

Beavers tie it up 3-3 with 9:47 left in the 2nd

3-2 UAA now 4:39 of the 2nd period

Where did you find this, and is it free?

Probably O'Donnell. It was a really nice tribute. Always is. Just makes me think of the other guys that should be out there with them tonight.

Final shots on goal: 30-29 Sioux

A shutout for the senior, on senior night. Awesome.

Was it Knight's stick that Blood tripped over? Maybe that's why Hayes is arguing.

If Bemidji wins, we play Bemidji. If Bemidji loses or ties we play Wisconsin

Eidsness is definitely proving that he deserved the start tonight.

Gophers win the MacNaughton Cup Now we just need Bemidji to take care of business, but that's not easy on a Saturday in Alaska.

Glad to help. And back to you...

Mavs at full strength

Sioux at full strength and on the PP now

Tripping on MSUM. Back to 4-on-4

Penalty on Gaarder, Tripping

It's painful, but yes, Go Gophers

Mavericks are 0-17-1 when trailing after 2 periods

Start of 3rd period

2nd period over. Sioux lead 2-0 Shots: 25-20 Sioux Sioux pretty much carried the play for most of the period, but following the MSUM power play, the Mavs really started pressuring but the Sioux D and Eidsness were up to the task.

Teams at full strength Glove save by Eids. 26.8 seconds left in the 2nd
