Going to the second best FBS conference in the West is a backwards step?

And that has to do with your original post how?

Wait... so the hockey reporter for the herald is talking about a hockey series this weekend? Damn him! Did you see Ryan Powell's Twitter last week when UND was clinching the Big Sky RS Championship in volleyball? Not a single tweet! How dare he!

Up to $45 is not $45 per ticket. That's for one game against Minnesota-Duluth and it's single game ticket sales only, NOT season tickets.. Bemidji State ticket prices average $20 per ticket, between season and single game tickets. Using those numbers, but with less attendance... you're looking at $900,000 for tickets. However, you must know that some of those tickets are comped/exchanges so it's not actually that much. At the minimum, you're talking about a $450,000 difference between the $30 you randomly threw out and something more realistic. And that's assuming they're playing in All Seasons and not Maysa. If it's the latter, then that's only 1,800 seats and now you're making $540,000.

$30 per seat? That's hilarious.

What happens when the MVFC schedule comes out and UND has NDSU/SDSU/USD all at home one year and on the road the next? Those off years are going to be filled with teams people aren't interested in seeing.

And if UND is the nine seed and hosts a game, I'm sure you'll be the first on here to applaud BF.

And it's been shown that when UND does schedule some of the other 346 DI teams, the attendance difference is minimal compared to non-DI. If the people want DI games, then they should show up for the ones that have been on the schedule.

Why all the hate for UNI? They're clearly the #3 team in the country... Sagarin even says so. They're above .500 in the supreme MVFC. Sure their 4 wins come against teams with a combined 8-21 conference record. But those three losses were close! They lost by a combined 8 points to 6-1 NDSU, 5-2 Youngstown and lowly 3-4 USD. It's not their fault they couldn't beat a Big Sky team this year, even one that isn't even .500 in the Big Sky. And don't forget about the huge win against Iowa State to start the season. Iowa State did go on to dominate 3-7 SJSU and 1-9 Kansas. Those are quality wins.

According to Oxbow... who cares what UND can afford? Spend, spend, spend!

Hawk logo on each leg as well.

So now we're supposed to believe the MFVC is better than the Big Sky because of "potential results?" UND did beat USD. Cal Poly beat SDSU UNI lost to EWU. UND would be undefeated if they played Stony Brook and Bowling Green right now. Does that mean they should be ranked as the #1 team in FCS?

I like the NDSU consistency on head to head. Sagarin is crap. EWU's biggest win is bigger than NDSU's biggest win. Or does that not matter that much?

It wouldn't be. It's a Big Sky event not an NCAA event. Similar to how the hockey team would be able to wear Sioux jerseys during regular season and WCHA playoffs but not in NCAA tournament.

Your reading comprehension sucks. He said the Big Sky is better head to head. Any ranking system that has UNI ranked in the Top 15 when they're 5-5 can be thrown out. A win over the #20 FBS team in the country and a lone OT loss to the #2 FCS team on the road is better than a win over an unranked FBS team and a loss at home to a 7-3 FCS team. Both teams have beat all but one of the AGS Top 25 they've played this year.

One team has a win against an FBS team that is 8-2, the other against a team that is 6-4. I think the former is a bit bigger than the latter.

Did you ever read the message boards on the Big Sky before UND joined? They wanted nothing to do with UND. Apparently, message board fans don't make conference decisions.

I think the only enticing thing about SlumValley is getting the other Dakota's back on the schedule regularly. If we already have home/homes for the big 4 revenue sports then I don't see a need to move. However, since consistent scheduling with those three has been so difficult and sporadic then I think the move may be beneficial.

It was a good time. We started out as a group of 5 and soon enough there were about 25 UND fans around us. We were the first group there, starting at about 8:15.

Hypothetically, what happens to your WAC idea if UND joins the MVFC and Summit? I have a feeling you'll find a way to spin that as und just recruiting other schools to the WAC.

That's a stretch. There is no way hundreds of thousands of people have DirecTV plus the sports pack in North Dakota

They represent their viewership pretty well. When was the last time someone in Eastern North Dakota watched football on Root Sports?

I'm not your friend, pal.

I heard he will be there but it's going to be game-time decision if he plays. If we're down, I could see him being the 3rd QB and coming in.
