Kober needs a comb

Me either, just saw it by chance this afternoon.

Congratulations to Coach Jones! I've never been the biggest fan, but he did well this year. Keep it goin!

I believe there is usually a dance going on in Shelly, MN

In the last 5 years, they have made the tourney 3 times, being seeded 12, 13 and 14. This year, I'll give you the use of inferior team ... and they will still be seeded higher than UND, if we make it.

ok, I'm done for now.

And then there is Brad Berry at about 9:45 on Saturday!

Just throwing it out there, but what logo is on the wall?

Just wait for Saturday ...I'm pretty pumped for it!. UND will have won handily on Friday. I'm betting the boys will be down by 4 on Saturday after 2. Coach Berry will leave the locker room ... Coach Bombay will walk in. The team will change jerseys before them come back out wearing a sweet Sioux Hawkey logo (For new hawks and old hawks), and UND will put 6 on the board in the 3rd! .......before being DQ'd for rules violations.

<Insert Hooker in Reno joke here>

UND wins 88 - 74.

Right, but come tourney time, the quality of the teams can have a significant impact in seedings. I'm not talking about person preference on cities, I'm talking about team caliber and RPI. Heck, lets throw your in your example ... I'll take Sioux Falls 10 times over. That place has been packed for conference tournaments. This year attendance in SF was 9,441. Last year in SF attendance was 10,188. Last year in Reno, attendance was ....2,516!! Like I said though, my main point was competition wise. Right you you have an 8-8 (Summit Conf Record) team, that will likely be seeded higher than a 14-4 (Big Sky Conf Record) team. Sound like even if you are a good team in the Big Sky, you are being dragged down by the conference?

Those are my favorite Fighting Hawk jerseys!

Not sure when Lunardi's lated projection was, but he still had us at a play in game. I guess it will be a wait and see scenario.

ok, follow up question then. Personal opinions of the Summit aside, from a conference standpoint, why were so many people opposed to the Summit? I believe even a 8-8 (conference record) SDSU has a higher RPI than a Big Sky leading UND. Looks like SDSU will get a 16 seed, while UND could end up in a play in game. Seems to me that making the move to the Summit is a solid move for the program, and not just because of travel cost or attendance.

Doesn't Providence play Notre Dame this weekend? I would think a Notre Dame sweep would almost flip flop the two teams? Would a split be more beneficial here? Obviously I haven't run the numbers.

Question regarding selection to the NCAA Bball Tourney. Obviously in the Big Sky, you have to win the tourney to get the bid. BUT could statement wins, or basically dominating the tourney impact our seeding? For example, lets say we walk through the tourney, playing the toughest competition possible, or somehow end up playing SUU in the finals and just squeak out a win. Does that impact our seeding between a 16 or 15 at all?

Belpedio is out

Assuming that both Duluth and Denver are in Minneapolis

Where would UND expect to sit in the pairwise, IF we won the NCHC Tourney? I would assume that would bump us up to a #2 seed in Fargo. Maybe not?

Nevermind, found it. Here it is for anyone else who is stuck at work and wants it. http://msbnsports.net/

Anyone know of an online link to listen to live audio on these games?

Question for fans, given team matchups, who would you rather have to play in the NCAA tourney? Denver or Duluth? Denver is on an 11 game win streak. Duluth has lost once in their last 13. Bottom line, they are both very good! UND tied Denver 1-1 and lost 3-2; though that was back in November. Duluth has significantly outplayed us 4 straight times. Personally, I think I would rather see Denver over Duluth. Denver seems to matchup a bit better, and Duluth seem to have our number this year. Plus, it is just always fun to play Denver, and lets face it, after ending their season last year, it would be fun to do it again.

When do they announce that Jones has won it?
