If people get jacked for the game, and look forward to watching it, and reminisce about all their memories from previous match ups, etc. it IS a rivalry game. That doesn't mean it has the same implications as other rivalry games (ex. Denver), but it is still a rivalry game. A rivalry game does not always have direct implications on the success of the that particular season. A sports rivalry is intense competition between athletic teams or athletes, but not directly related to the formal sport and the practice thereof. This pressure of competition is felt by players, coaches, and management, but is perhaps felt strongest by the fans.

The game day committee has decided the best way to raise and sustain attendance across football and all sports is to offer Free Beer at all events. In other news, Grand Forks expects to see a large number of Canadian immigrants over the next 12 months.

FBS?!?! BIG TEN IN ALL SPORTS?!?! ON CAMPUS FOOTBALL STADIUM WITH RETRACTABLE ROOF?!?!?! ..... formation of another new committee?

This rivalry has certainly cooled since the Big 10 started. But now that it is up an running again every year, if you get some close games, some dirty games, some back and forth games, and maybe some postseason games, it'll heat right back up. Unfortunately, it will probably never get back to where it was. That rivalry was great because we had a chance to play them up to 6 times in a season. That is a whole lot of rivalry hockey.

is FSN really not going to pick up these games?

or get a bunch of guys to bring in some 2 lb dumbells to mock the kid.

Maybe the student could do some pullups on the glass during the gopher warm ups. Show Mr Mittlestadt, that even you average college beer drinker should be able to do a single pull-up, let along a drafted college athlete.

This image should be lining the glass in the student section, and hopefully behind the Gophers bench too. It is just too good not to use.

Lets scrap the game and have a Cole Smith vs Casey Mittelstadt pull-up contest!!!

Ugh, the rich get richer.

Fire Hak

Who scores more this weekend? UND vs UNC or UND vs Alaska Anchorage? Debate ...

They should really continue to run those commercials regardless of whether they are open or not. Seriously, that is the place where safety comes first, and you'll always get expert AUTO REPAIR WORK!!! Great jingle!

Do they have an app for Roku, or do you have to view through the website?

I've turned the tv off and am reading a book. So far, much more entertaining.

I know we are banged up, but this team is a complete joke right now. Really tough stuff to watch.

I know, no worries. Frankly I wish I lived closer to by season tickets. But too much money to travel for bad games. I've actually made it to some football games, but not even a hockey game in the last 10 years. Something that surprises me. Hope the rest of the year and next year is better. injuries are a problem. I still think this team has talent, but mentality and attitude are one of the biggest issues at this point. Ouch.

Agreed, if I lived in GF and certainly if I had season tickets, would I be there? Absolutely!

I hear ya, and good for you. That kind of support is awesome, but I know I'm not going to feel bad about it. I could travel and spend money to watch bad football, or I could take the time and money and do something with my kids. I'll still watch the games and get up there at some point, but I may not make that extra sacrifice I otherwise would have.

No need for that. Can't blame people for that at all. Do I want to travel and invest to watch a bad product? No, I'll stay home get stuff done and watch it on tv. I love UND and UND football but when the product is as bad as today...yikes.

I blame Tom Miller.

rudy .... Rudy .... RUDY .... RUDY.... RUDY!!! good movie

Ketteringham then Boltmann, book it

Biggest hit will be that student will lose all interest, especially as hockey starts.

Hate turning games off early. Don't usually do it, but Go Twins!
