    Update
  4. 2 tickets in lower Bowl Section 106 for Friday Night(11/11) against Denver. $75/each. Tickets are in Fargo. PM me here or call/text 701-238-7384
  5. For many of those who are down their protesting. This is their job and they are being paid.
  6. But if they raise ticket prices shouldn't the revenue go up? Sorry, the political season is wearing on me and I just thought I would try and get used to democrat rule.
  7. I will take a stab at the playoff picture. I am including teams that still have a chip, a chair, and a chance. Big Sky -8 teams fighting for possibly 5 spots, but more than likely 4 spots. UND(6-2)...control own destiny, win out and likely have a home game and with a little help, possibly a bye. Can afford one slip up but that plummets them to the bottom of the pile, 2 losses and they need a ton of games to go their way. The committee ignored UND playing well at the end of the year last year, they won't ignore UND stumbling down the stretch. EWU(6-1)...should handle Idaho St. and Portland State and if they beat Montana and Cal Poly they will be a top 4 seed. Lose 1 and they are still in reasonably good shape for a first round bye. Weber State(5-2)...probably need to win 3 to get in. Should handle Idaho St. and they have NAU at home so need to pick off UND on the road or Cal Poly at home. Cal Poly(5-2)...should handle Sac St. and UNC at home. tough games remaining against EWU and at Weber St. With win over Montana and at SDSU they might hang on with 4 losses but probably need to win 3 of 4 down the stretch. NAU(4-4)...Need to win out and probably hope Western Illinois does the same. Montana(5-2)...In good position even with a loss to EWU this weekend. Should finish 8-3 at worst. UNC(4-3)...need to win out which would mean running out UND, Montana, and Cal Poly to finish the season. S. Utah(3-4)....need to win out and that includes upsetting FBS team BYU. Big South --should be one spot available but if Charleston Southern slips up it could cost someone else a slot. Charleston Southern(4-2)...should run the season out and finish 8-2...finish with Liberty and Kennesaw State who are the teams that could muck things up. Liberty(4-3)...with their losses to FBS teams SMU and Va. Tech and #2 FCS Jax State they can make a case if they beat Coastal Carolina to finish the season but if they can beat Charleston Southern the week before they will win the conference(assuming they handle their other weak conference games). Kennesaw State(5-2)....need to run the table and hope Charleston Southern handles Liberty. CAA --fighting for 4 spots and good shot at 5. JMU(6-1)...should handle URI and Elon...2 big road games with Richmond and Villanova sandwiched between those games will determine if they are getting the first week off. Stony Brook(5-2)....if they can beat UNH this weekend they would need to choke to not make playoffs and at least a share of conference title. Richmond(7-1)....Huge game with JMU will determine who gets the first week off. Will finish 10-1 or 9-2. Villanova(6-2)....2 easy games and a matchup with JMU....8-3 probably gets them in. UNH(5-3)....need to win out, starting with Stony Brook this weekend. Very winnable remaining games. Maine(4-3)....need to run the table which includes Stony Brook, Villanova, and New Hampshire. Albany(4-3)....need to run the table and get some help. William & Mary(3-4).....need to run the table and have some other teams trip up. MVC ---likely getting 5 spots. SDSU(5-2).....2-2 and they are still probably in, 3-1 and they are in a good position, 4-0 and they get a week off. NDSU(6-1)....some tough games left, but they are the champs for a reason. Run it out and they are watching the first week. Interesting matchup at UNI as UNI is almost out of rope. If USD wins out to get to 7-3 it might be an interesting game in Vermillion as well. Bison are probably done with the losses part of their season. Youngstown(5-2)....should finish 3-1 and make the playoffs. USD(4-3)....definitely some meat on the bone left for the Yotes. Need to go 3-1 to have a shot which includes home games with WIU and NDSU and a roadtrip to Brookings. UNI(3-4).....with NDSU, WIU, and SDSU still on their schedule they probably need to win out although if a 6-5 team was to get in it would probably be them, especially if EWU, Montana, USD, and Youngstown finish strong as 3 of them will likely be in the playoffs. Indiana State(4-4)....just need to beat NDSU, UNI, and Youngstown......so your telling me their is a chance! Missouri St.(3-4)....need to win out and get help. NEC conference winner is in, that should be it.* St. Francis(5-3)....still have Sacred heart and Wagner on schedule Wagner(4-3)....need to win out. Bryant(3-4)....need to win conference games and hope St. Francis loses twice...would probably be in playoffs with a 6-5 record as they have a non conference game with C. Carolina. Sacred Heart(6-1)....*probably need to win out to win the conference, but if they finish 9-2 with a win over the CAA champion does that give them consideration? Duquesne(4-3)....need to win out and need St. Francis to dump 2. OVC Should be a 1 bid conference.* Jacksonville State(6-1)...should run out the season to finish 10-1 and have a weekend off. If they lose a game it could create a quagmire. Tennessee-Martin(4-4)...*.run the table including the finale against Jacksonville State and win the conference and another at large bid disappears. Tennessee State(5-2)...*need the above to happened and run the table creating a 3 way tie for first in conference. Eastern Illinois(5-3)....*need to run the table and a Tenn-Martin win over Jax and create a 3 way tie for first. Patriot should be a 1 bid conference Lehigh(6-2)...win out and win conference. lose a game and it gets messy Fordham(5-2)....need to run the table to win conference. Bucknell(3-4)....need to run table to win conference. have Lehigh and Fordham on the schedule. Georgetown(3-4)....need to run the table and need Bucknell to run the table and the winner of Lehigh and Fordham to lose an additional game. Pioneer 1 bid conference San Diego(6-1)... Marist(4-3)... Dayton(6-2)... Jacksonville(3-3)... Stetson(4-3).... Drake(3-4).... Campbell(3-3)... San Diego, Marist, and Dayton should control who wins this unless they fall apart and open the door for the rest. Southern 2 maybe 3 playoff spots. The Citadel(7-0)...a win against Samford should wrap up the conference...should finish 10-1(loss to FBS North Carolina to finish season) Chattanooga(7-1)...should finish 9-2(finish with Alabama)...if Samford can knock off The Citadel you could have a 3 way tie and a possible 3rd playoff team. Samford(6-1)...should lose to Mississippi St. this weekend and then have a chance at conference title the following weekend against The Citadel. could finish 9-2 or 8-3. Are they in at 8-3? Mercer(4-3)...need to run table and get help....not even sure if they are playoff eligible yet? Wofford(4-3)....if they run table and get to 8-3 with a win over Chattanooga to do it, are they in? Southland probably 2 playoff spots, outside shot at a 3rd. SHSU(7-0)....should be 10-0 going into season finale against Central Arkansas...possible #1 seed and home playoffs throughout. Central Arkansas(6-1)....unbeaten in conference and are fairly secure for a playoff spot as long as they win 3 of 4. SE Louisiana(4-3)....cold make things interesting if they run the table including a win over C. Arkansas this weekend. would 8-3 get them in or would they need C. Arkansas to beat SHSU to create a 3 way conference tie? My Prediction on how it shakes out. Big Sky(4)--UND, EWU, Cal Poly, and Montana Big South(2)--Charleston Southern and Liberty CAA(4)--JMU, Stony Brook, Richmond, and Villanova MVFC(4)--SDSU, NDSU, Youngstown State, and UNI NEC(1)--Sacred Heart, Wagner or St. Francis OVC(1)---Jacksonville St. Patriot(1)--Lehigh or Fordham Pioneer(1)--San Diego or Marist Southern(2)--The Citadel and Chattanooga Southland(2)--SHSU and Central Arkansas That is 22 spots. Others in contention UNH USD and/or Western Illinois Samford Weber State SE Louisiana Kennesaw State UNH Sacred Heart Tennessee State
  8. Don't forget Ben Blood.
  9. I had us 5-0 after 5 and 9-4 after 13....I guess we will see how the next 8 play out.....I see a lot of splits and this early in the season I am alright with that as long as the team continues to improve.
  10. I thought Wolanin was out due to injury?
  11. Looking for 1 lower bowl ticket for Friday or Saturday night.
  12. If Kelley went to the Pepper he would bring his own fork and knife.
  13. I like Lou Nanne. His segments with Barriero are fantastic. sure, he is a Gopher homer but he also isn't afraid to call them out. My favorite quote from Lou a few years back heading into a Sioux-gopher weekend and the whiney gopher fans had been calling in and crying about how UND was cheap and rough and dirty, etc. Nanne said he didn't see it that way and said something along the lines of ....people need to remember that in hockey, physicality is a skill and it is a skill that the gophers do not possess and one that UND excels at...he elaborated on being tough in the corners and in front of the net, taking a hit to make a play, finishing a check but not taking yourself out of the play, etc.
  14. I didn't think much of that play when I saw it from the camera angle behind the play....changed my mind when I saw the view from the side. Unnecessary in my opinion.
  15. These guys have middle names I am not aware off? BB, TJ, and SG
  16. TBS......Superstation Line....Boeser-Jost-Gersich Heavy 2.0....Pogo-Garner-Wilkie Line of Nations.....JJ-Hoff-Simo Section 8 Line....Olson-Bowen-Yon-Smith
  17. Women's rowing would take about 300-400 k to be in top tier and the 12 scholarships are apportioned and you could have 50-60+ women on the team for the participation tier. If Arizona State can ad rowing we sure can. They could use the pool when we cut swimming. From an article on title 9 Meanwhile, colleges across the country have raced willy-nilly to add women’s teams, sometimes with near-comic results. For example, Arizona State University — located in a desert — is adding varsity women’s crew, a fast-growing sport that owes its newfound popularity to the large teams (50 to 80) that it requires. Arizona State will flood a nearby 2 mile dry gulch for the team to row on; few if any team members are expected to have any rowing experience. (Crew is notoriously grueling, and few high schools offer the sport.) At the University of Iowa, the new women’s crew team luxuriates in a budget of $440,000, boasting 12 apportionable scholarships, new boats and three paid coaches. Meanwhile, men’s crew — a club sport — struggles to make do with a stipend of $1,500 and secondhand boats.
  18. Dane Jackson alluded to that being the case at The Booster meeting in Fargo. Indicated that LaDue situation was similar.
  19. And UND was without their All American running back
  20. I have attended every WCHA and now NCHC Final 5 since 2000 I believe. This year it is going to be a coin flip as to whether I attend or not. Most of the group I usually go with have all expressed a less than overwhelming desire to attend another hockey game at the Target Center.
  21. Really depends if we are looking at Football in the Big Sky and moving everything else? If that is the plan, then everything except Men's Hockey, Football, Men's Golf, Womens Basketball, Womens Golf, Womens Soccer, and Volleyball should be on the table. If we have title 9 issues we could always add Women's rowing which seems to be the scam some other schools pull. 20 schollies and huge participation numbers apparently. Iowa has nearly 100 on their roster, the Gophs have around 50. I am betting some of these girls are walking around campus and are not even aware they are on the team at Iowa unless they really need depth....Meet Susie, she is our 47th string bow seater and a valuable member of our 11th scout team in the 8's and she leads our 23rd scout team in the 4's. After that the sports that should remain or be brought back in order would be Womens Softball Baseball Wrestling Womens Track and Field/Cross Country Mens Track and Field/Cross Country Womens Tennis Mens Tennis Women's Hockey Womens Swimming and Diving Mens Swimming and Diving
  22. Nice play and pass by Toews to set up the winner but it definitely looked like too many men on the ice for Canada. Marchand came off the bench and jumped in the play "a little" early.
