Here police officers were pulling students off student buses after games and checking them for alcohol, so what was the unintended consequence of that - students started driving themselves to games and driving home buzzed or worse.

Can someone give me a ballpark figure on what tickets might cost, based on Vegas and New York?

Based on the first three werks UND deserves to be in top 25, even if it only lasts a few weeks. BS on teams getting ranked for quality losses and weak schedule wins.

Glad to see you are still monitoring every post made here and making sure to set us straight - you must not have a game to follow with your team this week.

Times have changed - except for the band, (which plays in Heaven there is no beer way too often), students just aren't into it the way they used to be. A random "Let's Go Sioux" or Sioux Yah Yah every once in awhile is the new normal. Also everything that used to make it fun is not allowed or is usurped by the orchestrated music and announcements. Can you imagine them letting someone enter with a long pole and a rubber chicken attached to the end and hovering it over the visiting goalie during warm-up - they did in the 70s. They probably wouldn't even let someone wear a hard hat with a red revolving light on it into the building (again the 70s), but I digress.

But I wouldn't be able to carry a copy in my pocket (unless they minted copies - now there's a fundraising idea).

You really have to be living under a barn to think that UND would be in favor of bringing back the Nickle Trophy the way it is - and the only reason Moo U would want to do it is because they believe it would cause UND public relations issues. I don't believe revising the nickle with a new UND icon on its side is valid because the coin was a reflection of an actual nickle that was minted by the US and it loses its uniqueness if it's just a fabricated coin. One thing we have learned is that if/when something is created there will be vocal outrage from someone about it.

At the end of their DII domination it was other schools that caught up to su (the change in the # of scholarships allowed helped). Hockey has always been the top sport but it didn't stop UND from dominating SU in the 90s and winning a national championship. UND has proven it can get blue chippers.

The word is they got a new French fry maker that is more versatile. Always assume the best.

I think we need to set up committees at both schools and make sure everyone from all different interest groups is represented, they both receive a clear set of guidelines on what the trophy should and should not represent. Then we hire an expensive consulting firm from the east coast to moderate both groups and bring back a recommendation. Then we slap a hawk and bison on a giant nickle and pay the man.

We are right where the projections said we would be 1-1 and this game has always been the most important win in the schedule as far as making the playoffs. We have the talent to win this game.

More evidence of how little effort goes into coach's polls, probably completed by an intern at most schools.

Well there is the pharmacy connection.

His su education is showing.

Use Moo u it is tradition.

Can't really understand the mindset of their need to share those thoughts on an opposing fan site but it is only fitting that The Flagship University of the state would have the best trolls. Oh I guess we have to assume their coach also meant that the pharmaceutical dispensary is open for business as usual.

And every member of the former UND Women's Hockey Team.

Moo U legend says the player was down by contact.

Cannot understand how the Mods here think allowing SU trolls to derail every UND fan discussion makes this a better discussion for the UND fans.

I got one - thanks for playing!

Just troll bait.

I thought this was just another game for them and the coach didn 't think it meant anything. Also heard from a friend of a friend that he did not pass UND academic standards and had to settle for Moo U.

The reality on scholarships was that only a few universities were funding at the full 45 scholarship level, Moo U among them. Once they reduced the number of scholarships to 36 for everyone the field got much more competitive.

Here's the rub - this is our fan site, we should be able to express optimism without having arrogant, antagonistic trollers hovering over every comment. I realize that they've been here for years and their lot in life is to live in a perpetual stage of insecurity. The light at the end of the tunnel is that UND will beat the Cow College (we had our own 12 year run not that long ago) and many will disappear.

Did someone leave the barn door open?
