  1. I do miss the green numbers on our white jerseys. I thought they really stood out compared to the black numbers.
  2. Can't wait to go represent Walsh Hall on Saturday
  3. Four words, 10 Cent Beer Night! That would put some butts in those seats. What could go wrong? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ten_Cent_Beer_Night
  4. I was fortunate/unfortunate enough to be on the ground floor in Walsh for the 08-09 school year. The same suite my dad lived in during the mid 70s. It was really easy to sneak beer through my window. I would drop off the case outside my window and run to my room to pull it through. The unfortune side of that is people would always congregate around that window during the early hours of the morning. I also had some guys try to break into my room during Thanksgiving break while I was sleeping. The look on their faces when I shot out of bed was priceless. Lot of good times had in that building. Sad to see it go.
  5. I'm no artist but I always thought they could repurpose the old geometric Sioux head into something that looks like a hawks head. It might be more well received rather than "Mike's" mascot head logo.
  6. I was at least hoping that they'd mention that UND did beat them in basketball a couple years ago. Probably too much to ask.
  7. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3BkIh1R5utY This is pretty much Otis on his way out. Good riddance.
  8. Yup flying out Friday morning. I've never been to Connecticut so I thought what the heck might as well go for some hockey and New Haven style pizza.
  9. I was thinking something like this. Swap out the logos of course.
  10. Apparently the no taksies backsies rule was not in effect. Threw in my $1.09 to a great cause. Thanks for doing this.
  11. Clearly the voters simply mixed up UND and NDSU again.
  12. I imagine that the North Dakota in the end zone will be stylized like this.
  13. NORTH DAKOTA ? - 1968 1969 - 1970 1971 - 1985 1986 - 1989 1993 - 2008 2009 - 2015 2016 - *see note 1 below *1 This design has uniform numerals on its left side only; the right side has an "ND" logo (as depicted below). Found this on http://nationalchamps.net/Helmet_Project/ if that helps.
  14. Kyle Lanterman Russell from Up
  15. Love the play calling so far from Rudolph
  16. There you go, personally I like the change
  17. My thoughts tonight after the loss is might as well lose now when we still can. We got to learn from our mistakes and come out fired up during for the NCAA tourney and play like we know we can. Not the end of the world although it does make a long weekend for all the Sioux fans like me in St. Paul for the weekend. Go Sioux
  18. It makes me sad how petty this great rivalry has gotten. Instead of arguing about how UND's offense would match up against NDSU's defense or any other topic that deals with the game itself, we are arguing about who's ducking who. I can't wait till this game is scheduled and played so we can all put this behind us and get down to what really matters.
  19. They still send those emails out to students and they may as well be sending out spam. I never look at them and just delete them right away. I agree with putting up notices on the bulletin boards around campus but I think they also need something that will grab someone’s attention when the students are walking to class. Something like a board on campus displaying all the upcoming athletic events or something like that. Another thing is getting to the Alerus as a student is a pain. I think they still have shuttle buses going from campus to the Alerus but I'm not sure. If they do, they really need to start advertising it. I think that would help a little. For the students staying for the game, they really need to improve the atmosphere in the Alerus before and during the game. I know this has been brought up before. Some of the pregame videos and in game contests such as minute to win it seem like something straight out of high school. One of my pet peeves that still makes me cringe a little is when they have the players on the video screen doing something goofy or cheering on the fans. It seems out of place. The Alerus should really take a page out of the Ralphs playbook when it comes to building that game time atmosphere.
  20. Thanks, I couldn't agree with you more. This years schedule and the ones in the future should generate enough interest to get UND football to where it needs to beattendance wise.
  21. Hey guys, I'm a long time reader of siouxsports.com but I never post anything. I've probably been keeping track of everything on here since I was in Jr. High. I'm currently a UND student who has been to pretty much every home game since 2001 when the team first moved into the Alerus. I can't begin to tell you how excited I am for this upcoming season. With the current student attendence to games being what it is, I'm really hoping that the University gets the word out to the students about the home games better then what they have done in the past. Most of the students, from my experiences, view the football program as lower tier program due to ignorance. I can't tell you how many times I've tried to get my friends to go to games and all they say is "Why would I spend my Saturday afternoon watching that when I can sit at home and watch all big name programs on TV." They just don't know the history of the program and they usually compare it to that school down south, with their recent success. Heck most of the students don't even know about the rivalry between the two schools and just assume that NDSU has been the top dog forever in the state of North Dakota. The future of UND football looks bright and I'm hoping the students and the community of Grand Forks sees this and comes out to games to support our guys. Thats just my two cents I guess on the attendence issue we've had in the past. Here to a great season in the Big Sky in 2012. Go Sioux
