  1. I had a good angle on it and was dying worrying that wouldn't pick it up and it would go the other way for 6. Nice play on his part. Most of those on the field stopped for a couple of seconds.
  2. I was pretty well convinced that W hockey wasn't going anywhere. It would be tough to sell politically.
  3. I was surprised by the amount of Fighting Hawk logo apparel at the football game Saturday. Much more than I would have predicted.
  4. I am doing my part for attendance this week. There will be 14 of us.
  5. This was my take from Saturday as well. Olivera can bang and power out some yards when there isn't much there. Santiago needs our OL to create more space than they are doing right now.
  6. I have watched Wentz a few times and he is really good already.
  7. Water over the dam here but I really wish Mollberg would have gotten a look last year when Studsrud was hurt. It would have been great to see what he could do with the line and running backs we had last then. Good or bad it would have answered a lot of questions regarding what is our best option at QB.
  8. I will call BS on this one. The first one would cause a lot of angst and the other would barely be noticed.
  9. I was really turned off by obnoxious Sioux hockey fans the last few years I lived in GF. After moving to the Twin Cities I found that in general Gopher hockey fans are more obnoxious and many of them are much less knowledgeable about the game. Their feelings of superiority drive me nuts. I quickly found a new bond with UND hockey.
  10. When we play good football in meaningful games (playoff implications) most people will stay until the end.
  11. There was always controversy over attendance figures for playoff games at Memorial during the good times. The place would look very full but the numbers announced were a lot less than what people expected. At that time it was blamed on the fact that everyone had on a lot of cold weather clothes and spread out because there weren't actual seats, only benches.
  12. only one data point but a co-worker came back from a Minnesota-NDSU football game a few years ago and couldn't believe how arrogant and obnoxious the NDSU fans were. He is not a UM fan and was pretty open minded going into the game but was completely turned off by the NDSU fans that he encountered. There are good and bad fans of all teams.
  13. I was at a wedding but watched on my phone when I could. I did see that play and our player stood over the receiver and straddled him and kind of walked up toward his hips. I don't think the ref had any choice but to call that penalty. Bailed USD out of a 3rd and 20 that was coming up. Really bad penalty to take.
  14. the wedding I'm going to should be over by 3. Can't get to GF in less than 5 hours though.
  15. Niece is getting married in Twin Cities and I am in the wedding so won't make the game. Asked if I could skype my part in from the Alerus parking lot but no dice. Made it out to Stony Brook so I have that going for me.
  16. Throw to Stanley at front of end zone might have been an easier play. DB peeled off when ball was thrown so hard to say.
  17. Golladay is a monster.
  18. Here's a story on an almost former player. Joe Schobert will be starting for the Browns on Sunday. http://chronicle.northcoastnow.com/browns-notes/2016/09/08/Browns-counting-on-rookie-starters-Emmanuel-Ogbah-and-Joe-Schobert-to-sack-the-QB.html
  19. I am not a big supporter of the new logo but it is what we have. My son (who is a UND student) wore a grey t-shirt with the new logo to the MN state fair last weekend and both he and his girlfriend said he got a ton of compliments on the logo. Maybe those of us who had a lot invested in the Sioux name are a little biased in evaluating the new logo?
  20. I agree that Kennedy shouldn't be making decisions via committee. My hope is that he is looking for input from the committee and will take that into account while making his decision. He hasn't made any decisions by committee yet as far as I know.
  21. Thanks. I just saw Bubba giving the ref the business. It was on the other end of field from us. I've heard similar on Clive. Really too bad. These guys work hard for a long time to prepare for the season. I feel bad for him.
  22. I was at the game last night. Tough one for the offense. Bubba was really upset with the officials after Clive got hurt. Don't know if was mad about how long they let the play go or if he thought it was a dirty play. Anybody have any insight? no replay or commentary in stadium.
  23. will see you there. The tailgate show is broadcasting from there also.
  24. Me too. Just boarded plane at msp. Let's go!!!
  25. Her parents are Neil and Kathy. From an ESPN article. http://www.espn.com/wnba/story/_/id/6996419/lindsay-whalen-breathes-life-minnesota-lynx Kathy and Neil are both originally from Grand Forks, N.D. They met in third grade.
