  1. Loosely based on enrollment - teams can play AA if they elect to. STA made a mockery of the A level, but it's not the only school that's sand-bagged in A knowing they could compete at the AA level.
  2. Is it warm enough to ditch the SiouxSports winter hat yet?
  3. You can always tell the difference between the Roseau-Warroad-TRF-Moorhead-EGF kids and the Edina-Jefferson-Minnetonka-Woodbury-Wayzara kids when walking thru the crowds every year at the Let's Play Hockey expo... Local kids - cutting you off, bumping into you without a simple "excuse me," walking around in their warm-up gear like they own the place. First group of towns listed - "go ahead, sir."
  4. Beauty of a goal there...go Green Wave!
  5. No disrespect intended to either of these teams, but if you have the guts to play the Blaines, Moorheads, Roseaus, and Duluth Easts of the world during the season, why are you still playing A hockey when it comes to playoff time? The sectional scores of these two teams (outside of EGF's OT win over Warroad) were pretty ridiculous.
  6. That's kind of unfair...7th or even 8th place in the state is still an accomplishment, even though it may not seem like it at the time.
  7. So it's Cavalier and Beulah for 5th? North Star vs Linton for 3rd? Do they still play a 7th place game?

  9. Regardless of what happens today, UND deserves to be in the tournament - even if the ratings churn out results that say otherwise.
  10. 1500 radio here in the TC's babbling non-stop about the Gophers strength-of-schedule...apparently forgetting that the Big 10 is actually the Big 2, Medium 3, and Lame 1 this season.
  11. I just talked with an NCHC rep over at the "Let's Play Hockey" expo in St Paul...obviously, that's the playoff champion trophy...but the name is being kept a secret until some point in the tournament.
  12. Hmnnn...tell me again the great "disadvantage" that Trinity High School has had in the SW corner of ND since they dropped to Class B. And don't get me started on good old New England St Mary's, with their billet Catholic families more than willing to host a kid who could use some guidance and Christian education...oh, and it helped if he was 6'5" and could hoop it up, too.
  13. My bad. I was still stuck on darell's assertion that UND should bump up to FBS and got lost in my own thoughts with respect to his post when commenting on yours. I agree with you...UND shouldn't expect to far any worse at the FCS level than the school 70 miles to the south of Grand Forks.
  14. I guess if you consider me skeptical of being able to compete, in terms of fan support, $$$$, and on the field, with the likes of LSU, Alabama, Florida State, Texas, USC, Michigan, and Ohio State, then by all means, I'm small-minded.
  15. I'm sorry, but when I think of "upper FCS teams," I would put dozens of schools ahead of the University of North Dakota. That's just the way it is.
  16. I can't even believe it's a topic of discussion...
  17. Actually, I'm not sure chicagolandsioux is all that familiar with the state of Illinois...
