  1. Just arrived into town. Is there a UND tailgate section?
  2. Actually, I've seen it reported as an all-time 3-3-1 record against current Mountain West teams. It appears that they are missing a couple of games, as I believe UND's actual record against current Mountain West teams is 3-5-1: Wins against Wyoming & Nevada, 1-1-1 vs. UNLV and losses against: Fresno State, San Diego State, San Jose State and Utah State.
  3. My wife can't make the game in Boise, so I have an extra ticket that I need to dispose of. The ticket was purchased directly on Boise's website for $75; I attempted to dump it through their app today, but they wouldn't let me list it for less than $84 (they still have tickets left at $75). The ticket itself is on the 35 yard line, ten rows up, but I would imagine you would have no problem using it as an extra ticket to get in and then sit in the visitor's section (111, I believe) - I may end up doing this myself. Make me an offer, I'm very willing to give it up to another UND fan at an extremely discounted price. Thanks.
  4. Massey has us at #9 while only having a 6-5 record (counting UNI as a loss at 49%). For those of you who discount the use of computer rankings, let me point out that after the Drake game last year Massey predicted the winner of every UND game for the remainder of the season and was within a few points of the actual spread on all games with the exception of one where UND performed approximately 7 points better (SDSU) and one approximately 7 points worse (I can't recall which game). This said, a win against UNI (49%) and a road win at Southern Illinois (44%) would do wonders for the confidence of this team and likely produce a winning and game finishing mentality that wasn't there last year.
  5. This is me. I promised my wife that we would see a live hockey game for the first time in 25 years (Dec. '96 OT home victory over C.C.) thinking that we could catch a series at Denver or C.C. (before realizing how difficult reasonable tickets are to obtain). We've since made other plans. Hopefully they play in Denver next year (although we will be attending the ASU game in Vegas beforehand).
  6. Just a heads-up, anyone planning on to go to the game in Logan needs to look for a room now! There are no standard hotel rooms available in Logan on Friday night, and only a few private listings available. The Howard Johnson in Brigham City, 30 minutes away, currently has one room available.
  7. Precisely! The opening game is exactly four months away. That game in 2019 sucked; time to make the Bengals pay. I've been waiting a long time to attend the first two games this coming season. At least it appears that they may be able to play a respectable game in Logan the following week.
  8. I don't watch any football other than UND and a handful of other FCS games during the year. Can someone please explain to me why Schuster is charged with an interception if the receiver ran two steps with the ball after catching it before being popped? It seems ludicrous to me that it wasn't a completion with a catch.
  9. Both of theses game are scheduled to be on ESPN+, I don't believe that ESPN3 will have a stream for either of these games. ESPN+ is only $5.99 per month and you could cancel immediately after.
  10. Direct message me your address and I can send one to you at no cost.
  11. So no out of state viewing availability other than the Missouri State game?
  12. I believe this is correct. Tim mentioned who it was and what he was doing on one of his two appearances on the Sit Down and Cheer.Podcast.
  13. Although Blaze hasn't done much at BYU, he averaged 21 pts, 5 rebounds and 4 assists as a freshman at JUCO Utah State U. Eastern. He has a highlight tape on YouTube for anyone that is interested.
  14. https://www.dailycomet.com/sports/20181117/nicholls-makes-aggressive-bid-to-host-fcs-playoffs-for-second-straight-year
  15. Even worse is that UND currently is 10th and Arizona 13th, despite Arizona's 32 point win over UND.

    2019 Season

    Yeah, I forgot about that. I got the impression that Idaho State's AD Jeff Tingey was against UND being in the conference. I know for sure that coach Kramer was, as he stated in a couple of interviews that he didn't like UND being in the conference.

    2019 Season

    It is my belief that computer rankings play a considerably larger part in the selection than most believe. To me, what actually what lost the bid in 2015 is the same thing that can prevent a bid in 2019: the loss to Idaho State. In 2015 UND was hurt considerably in the ratings by being Idaho State’s only division 1 win. Although I’m sure there was immense pressure by the MVFC representative, Western Illinois was able to squeak in because they had a higher computer ranking despite being 6-5 and losing 59-7 with NDSU playing the entire game with a backup quarterback. This year the circumstances are similar. Last week Massey had UND ranked 14th and then dropped them to 18th this week. It wasn’t teams such as Montana State and Eastern Washington jumping UND that brought the dip, it was the loss by Idaho State at home to Northern Colorado preceded by a loss to Southern Utah that brought the sizable drop.
  18. Living in Utah and will be attending my first home game since graduating in the mid 90s (luckily the Big Sky has let me see 30+ road games in all sports over the past number of years). Driving up with my wife and two kids from the Cities this morning. Would like to purchase 4 tickets (around face value) that are not being used that would be better than what would be available at game time. Thank you.
