I agree, this team is worse than our 3-8 2010 team. Montana didn't blow us out in Missoula.

Even though I picked Lennon I will still support UND football no matter who is the coach. I am not a bandwagon fan and will switch teams even if Muss is retained. I went through this in the 80's I will go through this again.

What's more important winning recruiting battles with NDSU or winning recruiting battles with MSU, UM, EWU and other top teams in OUR conference. Gone is the NCC days where we compete against SU for recruits. We are in the BSC and need to get the better players away from OUR conference mates. If we can't win against our own conference why should NDSU matter (as we won't see them in the playoffs).

I still would like Dale Lennon to come back and bring Bubba with him. Get UND back prior to the Muss era.

When (not if) Muss is fired, should he retained as as a position coach or coordinator, or just let him be gone from the program altogether.

So no one would've complained about travel if they were allowed to join the BSC in 03? So today if given a chance to join the BSC as a non-football member Bison fans would love that?

UND fans trashing DI? As far as I know UND fans wanted to move up with the SU's. Please link us to the trashing of DI and the praising of DII.

Funny how Bison fans didn't care about the Mid Con (SL) http://www.bisonville.com/forum/archive/index.php/t-5890.html So Bison fans in 2003 bashed the Mid Con (SL), and praised the Big Sky, now in 2013 they bash the Big Sky and praise the SL. Bison fans crack me up.

So was that the same excuse you guys used when trying to get into the Big Sky? I thought NDSU travels well...or is that just football only. http://helenair.com/sports/ndsu-sdsu-to-seek-membership-in-big-sky-conference/article_8c971b6d-1516-5709-83af-d32a625b3851.html The mighty Joe Chapman didn't care about travel costs, so why should Bison fans?

UND loses last set 15-11

If you call that FB Time for them to be a bottom feeder in the Sun Belt.

From the live chat, Hey Tom I wouldn't mind being a coordinator.

I think USD and SDSU are in the SL for good since the tourny is in SF...but maybe NDSU needs to think about leaving for the BSC especially if more teams leave. Imagine the new BSA hosting a conference tournament, not possible in the SL. Time will tell if they and SDSU are connected to the hip.

Idaho will be the only non-football member when they rejoin the BSC next year.

That and a good team that doesn't get 50 points put on them at home.

If the SL is a basketball conference why is DU ( a hockey school), NDSU (football school) members? It should have more bball members. UNO is a hockey school, USD, SDSU, and WIU are more of a borderline basketball schools. I think only the Indiana schools are true basketball schools (crappy ones, but bball schools). I meant the same as far as bids to the tournament. We won't see more than one team at the dance. The big advantage the BSC has over the SL is stability and I would take that as #1 priority in a league. No need to split conferences into football and basketball. You know instead of the SU's trying to get UND to join why doesn't the SU's join the BSC as non football members like Idaho. You could have east/west divisions. Just a thought.

Actually one person has...Mplsbison. I don't know if he comes on here anymore but on AGS he advocated a SL football conference until other Bison fans ripped him for a stupid idea.

If the roles were reversed the SU's would be saying the BSC is better than the SL. After all NDSU tried not once but TWICE to get into the Big Sky despite travel issues (which they love to bring up to UND fans). Look at the meltdown they (FU fans) had after the BSC took Northern Colorado and not them. As for which basketball conference is better...its the SAME!! You will see one SL team and one BSC team in the dance. We aren't the Big 12 or Big 10 and have 4 or 5 teams in the dance. We are a 1 bid conference. I know Bison fans love to pump up the SL but look at who you have...USD, UNO, the Indiana teams...you telling me that screams superiority?? Just talking basketball, NDSU was king in 2009, last 2 years it was SDSU, who (that is still in the conference) won it besides those two? IUPUI in 2003, then WIU in 1984 (the conference debut), your powerhouses are gone, Valpo, ORU, Oakland; Denver's last bb tournament appearance was in DII in 96. As for UND joining, if the XDSU fans were so gung ho on having UND join, they should have their AD's (or presidents) tell the MVFC to let UND in so that they can have the same deal as South Dakota instead of crying out for the MAC, MVC to let them in. IMO its either MVFC/SL or no deal.

110 points!!! Must have been a long time since UND cracked the 100 mark in a non-OT game.

When they played Kansas they kept it close for a while. So if they can keep it within reach (without bombing 3 pointers all the time) they could go for the upset. http://espn.go.com/ncb/recap?gameId=260210275 Remember this!!

Sorry I worded it wrong. I meant to put they will treat (the Wisconsin game) like they did Kansas (big time school, big arena, etc.) and then I added what I wanted. Sorry for the mess up on my part.

Rumor. As long as it's not profane, the first ammendment protects the right to wear Fighting Sioux gear.

Try looking at the UND football locker room. I know Brian Jones isn't telling his players to not get hurt and stay within 20...I am telling the team to not get hurt and stay within 20. You guys missed my post by a long shot. I hope the team treats this like Kansas (meaning it's a big game, no margin for error or you are going to get killed), so I hope the team does its best (little or no mental mistakes), doesn't get hurt( we need all the guys healthy all year long), and stay within 20 to give us a chance to win.

Well of course you go out there and win the game, I just hope they stay within 20 and not lose by 50 which I have seen teams do. We are playing Wisconsin and I don't expect a win just keep it close. It would be huge if we beat them or Oregon or Butler but I am not expecting any miracles.
