Hendrickson is a Freshman....right?

I do think you guys are better off sticking with Hendrickson rather than putting Goska back in.

I have said all along that this Montana team is very beatable. The way this is going I can surely see UND knocking the Griz off. Quite a game here.

It is too bad this one isn't on Directv. After my lousy streaming experience last night with the NDSU/Oregon BB game I am about ready to go over to our local internet service provider and club someone. The feed in Fargo was evidently fine. The price paid for living in the Outback I guess.....

I think that increases the interest, but SIU has been a top contender in the MVFC......and that will always generate interest because of playoff implications if you beat them.

Some programs have had some good luck filling in some gaps with JUCO players (not too much at NDSU). I think if you find the right people it can help fill holes that develop as recruiting classes mature.

I have argued with people about this on Bisonville also......who on earth would want to be in either the MAC or the WAC? I would not at all support a jump to either of those.

Because that is what we do.....it is a law of nature......

Personally, I like the Sky as long as the Montanas are in (a bit biased because I could see a bunch more games). But, from a travel cost perspective it would surely not make sense to switch.

LOL.....oh it gets worse......I also said this on Bisonville when one my Kool-aid drinking fellow fans said the Bison could go 8-3 this season..... I think we will see a monkey fly out of my ass before we see 8-3 this year. I should probably just stick to drinking this weekend and NO wagering.....

Montana staying in FCS is good news for all of FCS. A weak Big Sky is not good for anyone.

Quit talking about nuts.......it is making me nervous. Monkeys are not open for discussion either......

Some of the students say the Fagodome is a long ways from campus..... At either place....a poor excuse not to show up. Things can be done to create a campus environment. Simple stuff....like having the band wander throught the tailgate playing stuff like "In heaven there is no beer".

Posting on the WYO boards is a bit dull because there isn't another in-state school to argue with......

There are things the schools can do to make the football games more of an event. I think a lot of it starts with encouraging a fun tailgating environment. Good tailgating also means the schools have to allow alchohol comsumption as well as planning other "events" during the tailgate. If people look forward to a great tailgate as well as the game, I think that can blunt some of the negative attendance from a mediocre season. However, too many bad seasons in a row would spell problems for any program. In North Dakota, the tailgate issue is a big one, in large part because of the incredibly provincial attitude towards booze.

The WAC is such a mess, I am not sure it will survive another round of defections. I wonder if Hawaii is still thinking about going indy? They are the last decent WAC school.

Football?? No, Minnesota would not be competative in the Big Sky. I would see the NSIC as a better home for Gopher Football.

OK......I want to smoke a joint of what ever the hell you have been smoking to come up with that one......LOL!!!!!

Unreal. It makes no sense.

I wonder how much of a shot the Vikes have a getting one of the Philly QBs? I would just as soon that the Vikes get Vick, but Kolb would be very good as well. (And I am even a dog owner!!)

Wow.....that surprises me with the big oil boom going on. You would think that would be money maker for them. Thats a shame. All former Northwest cities in ND ought to get service to both Delta hubs (that are in this region of the country).

Why is it that when any sporting event from North Dakota (whether it is UND, NDSU) is broadcast on directv in SD and not HD? It is like HD has not even made it to ND for athletic events. My understanding is the difference is just in the cameras they use. I would think HD would be a real plus for hockey where you are trying to watch a puck, but alas......no HD in ND as of yet.....

Actually Kolpack stated they would like 2 charters a year. There is nothing in the contract with the MVFC that says they are guarateed that. That is what was said. As to SIU playing UND, I would think that if UND needs some help in finding OOC games a former coach would be a good place to look . A home and home would give each school a decent gate because of the history with Lennon. Surely it would be more interesting that playing a patsy in OOC competition.

Based on what I saw from SIU on Saturday, Lennon must be having some trouble down there. I believe that the last of Kill's recruits are gone and now what we are seeing is a total Lennon product. This edition of the Salukis has been the weakest I have seen since NDSU started playing them. It will be interesting to see if SIU improves or not next season. NDSU was not a strong team on Saturday and despite this SIU never led in the game. With Lennon coaching at SIU and since he is a former UND coach, it would be a fun game to see him bring SIU to Grand Forks for a game. I would think the would be open to a home and home for some OOC competition.

Vikes got it tied up......a HELL of a game!!
