Sorry but anyone who posts a statement like "Beside hockey is there anything to be excited about at UND" is myopic, immature and under informed (and probably has ulterior motives for posting here.)

the troll-son fans like to say the game doesn't mean anything but they're the ones on the ledge after a loss calling for the coaches job.

If you measure everything by sports in the here and now and focus on the negative - I guess not.

Hey you're marshing their mellow - let them live in their fantasy world it's all they got - except Tier II football. Once a Flagship, always a Flagship.

Go Big Sky, Go Montana.

The attitude is "You're either with us or you're on the trash heap". Nothing new here - the sentiment trickles down to their fan base also.

Once a Flagship, always a Flagship.

Isn't it fun to win these "meaningless" games? As the UND coaches say you haven't beat the bison until you do it on their home court - that hasn't been that difficult. Comparative scores say FU should have won - guess that's why they play the game and why there won't be a UND-FU football game anytime soon. They can't take that chance. Of course... It meant more to UND It was UND's superbowl UND had more to play for then FU It's a meaningless game But football

Hey it's the trolls job to monitor our postings and correct them. SDSU may have won the last meeting but we had that great last second win in Brookings (I believe the year before) that even shut their band up

Yes it was stated in the press that while the NCAA does not want UND to use the Sioux logo or name they want UND to protect it so that no one else can use it. Discussion were on creating a retro shirt once a year and selling it, etc.

Also then they would have to change the name of The Dakota Three or whatever the imaginary footbal Triangle of Terror is.(of which UND owns a winning football record over all three)

Yup.

Yup.

UND has to protect the logo, it doesn't make them bad, it's the way copyright laws work - same reason Disney has to shut down daycares that use Disney icons without permission. If you don't protect it in all instances you lose control of it.

As history has shown when two teams have a traveling trophy the only team that feels the trophy should be up for grabs during the playoffs is the team that lost it during the regular season. With many traveling trophies the winner is awarded the trophy for the year based on the regular season game.

I highly doubt that logo is legal and would guess they will be receiving a letter very soon - Trust me I know. Regarding the power of the Sioux nickname I wore my Sioux Forever shirt around Alexandria, MN last week and was asked by several people where I got it - that was an easy answer.

I think su should "petition" the NCAA about their "hosing". Gonna root for the Big Sky all the way and an early exit for the Thundering Convicts.

I wasn't pumping my chest - just sayin we had a couple of good wins this year for our first year out of transition. If you are trying to make me feel bad about this season and this team it is not going to happen and it has nothing to do with lowered expectations. I'm guessing this team must have set the record for most offensive plays of more than 20 yards. I enjoyed this season - it's not going to end with any championship but if you are looking for reasons to enjoy a season you can find them, if you are looking for reasons to be disappointed in a season you can find them. Sorry but I have to say it again - it's a game, they're student athletes, I applaud their ability to go to college and play a sport at the same time (oh and stay off the police blotter.)

Based on what I saw I disagree that this team was good enough to make the playoffs this year.

Not meaning to be adversarial - our first year out of transition, which made recruiting a little challenging, pre-season projections had us around 5-6th or lower in Big Sky. Very tough losses to Big Sky power houses (playoffs will tell). Of course I hate losing by 30+ points but what were your expectations for this season that makes you say it was a disappointment?

Two teams receiving votes that UND beat - we can feel pretty good about that.

In the past all fans have been invited to the SCSU Center Line Club pre-game social. Don't think that has changed - it's at Brothers Pub in downtown St. Cloud Saturday at 4:00.

Wow - 5 straight home games - that could be tough on the liver.

Dave Is the SCSU pre-game social on for Saturday - I think I heard the location where they meet has changed?
