It's never better to lose

What a piss poor performance

Wow, can't agree with this at all.

What did he say?

Disappointing given how the boys played tonight. Hope they carry that into next season. Fun one to watch and a heck of a season. Like football, there is a ton of talent to look forward to next season.

You now owe us $100 each for using our message board as a therapy session to vent. I don't take checks.

For those who have been to the NCHC tourney in the past, I have a conflict for Friday's game, and would only want to go to the game on Saturday if they are in the Championship. Assuming the boys take care of business on Friday (which I'm sure they will), should I have any issues still getting tickets late on Friday night?

Any idea when they announce this? My ticket purchase kind of hinges on the time.

Can you buy single game tickets? Or is it just a day pass?

I know, wasn't a dumb play by crandall, just frustrating. I thought und played a pretty solid game against a really good opponent. With just about everyone back and the addition of baker, we will be good again next year.

Frustrating to see crandall take that last attempt in regulation over Hooker. Not a knock on crandall; Hooker is just that good. Great effort by the team. Sucks to lose, but hurts less knowing we played a solid game against a tough opponent.

Understandable. Though I love when the games are on CBS sports or FCS, just because the quality is better than webcast. Thanks for the info!

This may have already been asked elsewhere, but is this series included in the NCHC TV package purchased at the beginning of the year, or will this cost extra?

Gameday! can't wait. Hope the boys not only beat ISU, but really get some momentum going to take into their next game. Also Go Portland St and Go Sacramento St!

Thursday could be a whole different game. Just need to see if the boys show up or if it's just another Hooker show in Reno

Team aspect that Bubba is putting out there. First of all, he making the other plays do extra workouts. Its not like he is whipping them. Then making the offenders watch is a much worse punishment than make them do extra sprints (or whatever else). Beautifully handled by the staff. Reminds kids that they are accountable to more than just themselves. They are accountable to their teammates, coaches, fans and university. I'd just assume we take the legalize weed conversation somewhere else. It is completely irrelevant here. As of now it is illegal, that's why these kids got in trouble. Doesn't matter if it should be legal or not. I think the speed limit should be increase and a certain road by my house (AND IT SHOULD), but I still got stuck with a ticket. (Maybe I should make my wife run sprints in our back yard, while I watch, as a punishment for my ticket )

UND needs to shrug off this last road trip. Move forward and focus on the goal. We have shown flashes this season that we can compete with anybody, but we have also shown that we do not play consistent enough to deserve a top 4 spot. Need to really focus on being that competitive team that we saw in the first game against MT and against Weber. The talent is there; hopefully the discipline and the coaching is too.

Good video. I hadn't seen this one. Forgot just how many great plays this kids had this season. Wish we could keep him for another year.

Thats what I'm saying, I don't have the clip. Its not on the UND vs MT ST, highlight reel on Youtube, so I'm not sure where to find it. I assume Eversports doesn't retain those games to be re-watched. I'm sure someone has the clip somewhere, but he was an absolute wall on that play.

Good way to handle it by the coaches. Way better to punish everyone else, and make the offenders watch. Definitely a better impact. That being said, these kids did something stupid. they deserve to be suspended for the Stony Brook trip, and lets hope it doesn't happen again. I've said my bit ... time to move on from the issue.

Cool to see that video of Will doing the bench press, his strength is unreal. Wish someone would find and post the clip of his goal line stop against Dakota Prukop. That clip really shows how his strength translates onto the field.

I added one too. Hopefully they change that. It may be petty, but when a kid finally gets UND football a little extra exposure it would be nice that the exposure goes to the correct program. NDSU already gets enough exposure, and to be fair, they have definitely earned it; But UND is certainly improving and getting more of those kinds of players that deserve a little national attention. Ratelle could be a big name, and hopefully he gets a shot somewhere. Would love to see the Vikes pick him up as a free agent. I just don't see him getting drafted, but who knows.

I was a band member through college and Doc was a true pleasure to have known. All around great guy, as was band director Robert Brooks. Absolute privilege to have known those guys. True gentleman.

Play like we have on this trip and we'll be lucky to even keep the games close
