Next year will be it, no way they bring him for a lame duck 2021 season.

NDSU will put up 40 by halftime on either of these teams from the look of it.

Don’t wanna leave too much time left for Nicholls to get momentum

Browsing AirBNB and Southwest figuring out where and how soon to get the hell out of here for a week is my personal favorite pastime.

Consider the source. After almost 30 years in the Twin Cities I can tell you that other than better economic opportunities and a major airport, it really isn't much different.

Used to frequent that place years ago. My witty repartee wasn't appreciated, so I showed myself the door after multiple suspensions courtesy of Greyeagle (who's actually a really good guy). Back when my smack talk arsenal was decent.

Only BNA flights via Spirit from MSP have to connect through FLL, MCO, or LAS, don't do it. Sun Country now on the nickel dime pricing model. Don't get excited about the low fare, you are looking at a minimum $100 extra round trip per person for aisle seats and a carry-on.

DL non-stops MSP-BNA running about $395 right now.

Southwest runs a non-stop to BNA daily. You'll just have to hang in there until they extend the schedule to October. EDIT: Correction it's two directs per day now.

I wish the Ivy powers that be would take the bug out of their collective rear-end. https://sports.yahoo.com/ivy-league-director-no-postseason-sight-163940124--ncaaf.html Leave the field at 24 if and when they do. They would have gotten 2 in this year.

Which do they do first, form the brackets or open the bids?

Good clarification, thanks.

So really a short-term loan is what we are talking here. The money trail in this department is so absurd, I doubt there's any arrangement in the country quite like it.

The notion that members of a fanbase are expected to donate to an NCAA guarantee toward a home football game is such an outlandish notion I don't even know where to begin.

Continued fallout from UND v NCAA?

Says here Nicholls bid ~$80K last year. https://www.houmatoday.com/sports/20181117/nicholls-makes-aggressive-bid-to-host-fcs-playoffs-for-second-straight-year

$15 per expected head in attendance is precedent for an aggressive bid, as James Madison bid $200K to host this game: http://jmusports.com/sports/football/stats/2014/liberty/boxscore/10256 Looks like Chaves came in at about $10 if you project 7,500. Armchair AD here, maybe about $90K would have been around the appropriate number. Not sure how the Alerus expenses would compare to JMU's facilities.

I have to believe Guerin will pull the trigger on Boudreau soon.

Uncle Andy or bust.

The SEC puts more asses in seats in one Saturday than the NCHC does in an entire season, so let’s leave them out of it.

Is this really going on?

Attempting to create a collegiate type game experience would be great. If I want an NHL atmosphere, I’ll take a $40 Uber to St.Paul or fly to Vegas for the Golden Knights. Is there someone I can e-mail who’s responsible for the production of these games?

Totally agree with you. I'm just bracing myself for the UNI scenario.

6-2 9-3 > 5-3 7-4 if you lump us into the Big Sky mix, which I think they will. Maybe EWU isn't a concern, but we've seen crazier. I don't think the committee takes 6 from the Big Sky.
