Agree. That is a pretty dumb take on it. I guess we push things over the tipping point.

What station and who are hosts?

One positive - If recent history holds - a team in the MVFC only needs to get to 6 wins to make the playoffs.

This decision was made for $$ reasons. GF Herald estimated $500k per year. I was told by a person on the keep/cut sports committee that it is $800k/year. There are budget cuts coming. This is a fairly benign way to help with that. There are people on both sides of the debate so I see it as pretty even. If we could have afforded the Big Sky I'm sure we would have stayed. If all of us fans and donors had provided another $1M or so to UND per year I'm sure we would have stayed also.

Living in the Twin Cities, this brings NDSU, SDSU, USD and Northern Iowa all within easy travel distance for me. Will probably be at all of those road fb games in the future.

Any news or rumors regarding commitments after the official visits this weekend?

yes

Regarding the OL - I can't help but wonder how we would have been with Grady all year and Stockwell healthy for the playoffs. Anchor those tackle spots and the rest of the OL would have filled in really nicely. Our run game for the playoffs could have been special.

Where are best places in Omaha to eat/get a beer before and after the game?

Not really fair to say that UND was a bottom dweller 81-84. We didn't fall off the map until 85. Records in the early 80's weren't terrible and a couple of 3 loss seasons: 1980 - 6-4 1981 - 6-4 1982 - 7-3 1983 - 6-5 1984 - 8-3

I was told by a person who was on the committee that Faison told him that UND would save $800k/year. He also said Faison would deny that. I don't know why and I don't understand why that number is so different from Tom Miller's article.

we are jealous Brad. Have fun.

I think that is true.

I am confused by the article I read. It says 7 are out for the final and mentions 2 of their better players being out for the semis. I am not sure if all 7 were out for the semis or just the 2. Has anyone seen that clarified?

What kind of guy is Craig Bohl? I really don't know much about him.

They had a lot of success on their last drive when they finally ran the ball. I didn't see much of the game but I was surprised they didn't run more in the second half.

Too bad.

Was Wentz part of the "it" factor the last couple of years. I didn't realize how good he was until the draft talk started last year.

My brother was in Fargo at a Fargo North basketball game. Said the place went silent after the fb game was final. My son is at the Betty for the UND basketball game and there was a roar when the game ended even though there was no announcement.

JMU sure started struttin pretty early and after every tackle with just under 5:00 left. As much as I wanted them to win it was hard to watch

final. JMU by 10

not at all. I figured they would still pull it out until just now

I know most or all bison fans rightfully disown him but wow does he have issues.

Two words...........Lakes Bison. I don't know of any UND fan (or any fan anywhere) whose behavior reaches anywhere near his level. Visit a fan site of any team that UND plays and you will find him spewing hatred and baseless accusations.
