B1G is one-game only the rest of the way. I'd say your best chances for upsets this weekend are in South Bend and Columbus.

Thank you for being a voice of reason on this topic!

I’m glad to see someone on the team hasn’t lost his “scoring” touch...maybe the players on the ice tonight can catch that bug.

Not sure about everyone else, but I would have loved to tune in next Thursday to watch a sucky UND team play in the opening round of the tournament.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't North Dakota also have a chance at beating 130 RPI Omaha in this tournament? If NDSU is "lucky" to have had the opportunity to play such a poor team, what's your excuse for the Fighting Hawks blowing the exact same opportunity? Surely you can do better than "Crandall left."

St Mary's beat Gonzaga last night by 13 (60-47) to advance. It was just over a month ago that the Zags beat the Gaels 94-46 in Spokane. March Madness indeed! A #1 being upset (like what happened in the Summit) happens more often than you think. And most of those #1 seeds are playing on their own court, too.

I agree with your assessment that AJS' comment about North Dakota being a "complete loser" is a bit of overreaction. It wasn't that long ago that the Fighting Hawks were playing on national TV against Arizona. However, when NDSU has been to the dance now four times (2009, 2014, 2015, and now this year), North Dakota's lone appearance is easily forgotten. "Complete loser"? No. A more successful program needed? Yes.

@SJHovey Let me know if you'd like some help getting #22's signature on there.

And here we go...another keyboard tough guy.

1 less win...5 more losses...that's kinda big in a 34-35 game season.

Boy, someone's a little salty today... Your "congratulations" was pretty thick with sarcasm. Hopefully for your sake, NDSU declines the automatic bid that comes with winning the tournament.

Sheesh. Heaven forbid someone give a rival team some credit. Where would you rather be when this tournament starts? UND watching it or NDSU playing in it? Say what you want, a pretty impressive run thru the conference tournament -- which is what makes March Madness so great.

Silver lining: Brian Jones’ seat just got warmer.

Well, it was either that or "Marchand's Guitar Lickers."

LITERALLY!

Godsmack Goon LeftyZL + 1 Langster019 -- "hard maybe"

The imaginary scenario of a B1G North Dakota @ Minnesota first-round playoff series would pack 3M at Mariucci Row the Boat Arena to the rafters. #poorexcuse

High hopes...big expectations. Sometimes these things just don't work out.

@UNDBIZ Thank you.

Pssst...I think that was part of Oxbow's joke.

As long as it gets North Dakota to the next round, I'll allow it.

Sorry, Mr. Acosta, you didn't delete your post quick enough this time.
