Coach Blais, did you order the code red?

And someone gave me a -1 for my comment. Apparently, 25 year old players are the devil - unless they're wearing an M on their jersey.

If he played for UND, Gopher fans across the globe would be screaming for a lifetime ban from hockey.

These are dark, dark times at Mariucci Arena...

Timeout Gophers. Lucia asks Motzko if Huskies can "go skins" because jerseys are distracting.

Word out of Grand Forks today is that Jones lined up a noon scrimmage against the Delta Tau Delta intramural A team. Jones' UND squad almost pulled off the upset too, losing 64-61.

Darthmouth ties Michigan last night 1-1... BREAKING NEWS OUT OF ANN ARBOR: Don Lucia, after consulting with Red Berenson this morning, has proposed a B10 rule change that would require all opposing goalies at non-conference home games to wear reduced-size pads, use an early 1900's-era baseball glove, and wear no helmets. Full details to be released at 11.

Weren't you predicting the greatest win in UND hoops history a day or two ago?

Looks an awful lot like the Iowa Hawkeye...and they WILL object, much like they did when Southern Miss introduced a new logo a few years ago.

Talk about a delusion of grandeur!

I suppose a simple check of the schedule would have helped me out there with St Cloud, but thank you for the correction. Our points are the same though: Minnesota wants to pat itself on the back as being the gracious big brother when in fact, they're still playing with the majority of the toys.

Um...isn't tomorrow's game at Mariucci? So now the reward for not playing in the North Star is to play at Mariucci twice? Gee, what next, does the one team that doesn't get to play Minnesota in the North Star earn the privilege of washing the Gopher players' jocks once the tournament is over?

http://www.collegehockeynews.com/news/2015/11/24_big_ten_legislation_raises.php I loved this paragraph from the College Hockey News article. What CHN failed to mention is that Union's opponent that night also had two 24-year olds on its roster. In fact, they were the two oldest players on the ice (Jake Parenteau and Tom Serratore, both of whom turned 25 a couple of months after the championship game).

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

Well, to be fair, all of their "experts" are busy working on the North Carolina football and basketball cheating case...sanctions coming any day now, I hear.

A different poster wanted a mulligan for UND for the Idaho State and Weber State losses. Good teams seem to overcome key injuries. I think if UND wins one of those two games, EIU is sitting at home for the playoffs.

I already pointed out that EIU's argument for being included is not as good as 6-5 WIU's.

Nothing wrong with a 7-4 season in year two of the Bubba regime. Playoffs would have been a bonus. Disappointed, sure, but hardly a total screw-job. I think WIU had a better argument than EIU.

LOL. How'd Alabama do with a 3rd string QB last season? How about Baylor yesterday? NDSU since Wentz went out? 7-4 is better than 6-5. Yea, Houston has only 1 loss this season too. Are they better than 2 loss Michigan or TCU? No way.

Beating Wyoming means you should be punching your ticket to the FCS playoffs? UND lost to the last place team in its own conference. Ballgame.

As opposed to "Here's your University of North Dakota Roughrider penalty kill sponsored by Roughrider Condoms. You can shoot, but you won't slip one past our defense!"

Well get to work, jimdahl. I have a new batch of fleece winter hats to order!

Minnesota fans: "Lamest nickname ever!" (then chant: "Let's Go Gophers!")
