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.

Montana State beating Montana on 11/23 wouldn't be good. Eastern Washington is a growing concern.

I'd be interested if there is a worse loss than ISU for any team under consideration in the country. I can't think of one. If UND is 7-4 and on the outside looking in, that will be it.

If this team is looking past ANYONE, there are much deeper issues.

If Davis gets in over UND I will lose my sh-t.

Best football atmosphere I've ever witnessed live. Penn State fans were gracious and very complementary, except one guy. Him: "Yeah, good win today but you really didn't catch us playing very well." Me: "Thanks! Was great to get a big win like this against a program like Penn State." Him: "Have you even been to a game at Happy Valley?" Me: "No, but it looks like a blast and would like to do that someday." Him: "It holds about 110,000, you could fit two of your stadiums inside of it" Me: "Sure. Here's some more math. 31 > 26". Replaying the conversation in my head shortly after: Him: "Have you ever been to a game at Happy Valley?" ME: "No, but I've seen the documentary".

Snatched defeat out of the jaws of victory. Disappointing? Yes. Playoff team if they win the next two at home? Yes.

Good lord

You’re 27-27 inside 3 to go your ball. Go win it.

I think that's a true statement.

Depends. IMO the optics matter. The numbers next to the "W" or "L" matter.

True, and the UNI result was somewhat lopsided as well. Very top heavy MVFC this year, I have a feeling they'll figure out a way to get 4 in, no way they get 5. Fairy tale.

If we get blown out of Ogden and SIU plays NDSU tough, I can see this coming up as a discussion.

Spot on. The union would kick and scream from the rooftops.

And the Grand Forks AFB, the aviation, entrepreneurship, and engineering programs feed so nicely into this. The opportunity is mind-boggling.

I would be immersing myself in that industry if I were a Grand Forks bigwig #gobc. Make it a cold Huntsville.

If he did, I never saw it.

That program was a perennial Big Sky doormat before he got there. Agree with this.

Agreed, the Montana State resume isn't impressive, not sure I understand this one.

I'm not sure. If Weber State is a blowout loss and we don't look like we belong on the same field, that would be four lopsided losses (including EWU) in my mind, and we might find ourselves on the outside looking in. The shine has worn off of the SHSU and UC-Davis wins. Being independent certainly won't help. Flip side, win out and top 8 seed and a first-round bye could be a possibility, and a hosting the first-round a probability.
