They better hope Mankato and Bemidji both make it!!

What about the Resch Center in Green Bay for a future WCHA Final? Probably the most central location for WCHA teams. Capacity is 8709 which is about the attendance they are going to get starting next year. I think that having it in the X maybe just once, Mcleod will see that they need to downsize. Grand Rapids is a good option, but Having it in Milwaukee will make it better for attendance for the Minnesota schools and the UP Michigan schools especially.

In the what have you done for me lately category....Since 1985, Central has won 5 State Championships...Red River has won 13!!

1997 State Championship game..Red River vs. Central. What a great game!! Atmosphere was unbelievable!! Outcome ended up pretty good too eh fightingsioux4life?!!

I think maybe a more fair thing to do since there are so many great Sioux players, is to break the all time rosters up by decades.

Or why no Great West Championship banners for womens basketball and volleyball at the Betty??

No...it's because they are scared to play the Bison!!

Still there right now. Sounds like it may be coming down this spring. Going to be a bittersweet moment!!

If Faison keeps sending down contracts to GT to play a football game, and GT keeps rejecting it, who comes out looking worse? I realize that NDSU doesn't need to prove anything to UND and doesn't owe them anything either. But what does that say to your players/fans/etc. when you refuse to play a team because of something that happened 10 years ago?!! What is the worst that could happen....NDSU loses to UND?? If the Bison are such a superior team and program, than losing to UND will never happen. The FACT that Faison doesn not want to schedule UND is because if they did lose the game, it would crush his precious ego. As long as GT is around, this game will not be played. Just sad that GT can man up and get over the past.

Maybe you should take the course instead!! By saying that "UND might cancel the series leaving NDSU scrambling to find a game. Nothing in UND's track record convinces me otherwise", you are saying that UND may cancel the series and that their track record shows that. All we are asking you to do is provide examples from that track record that would leave you to believe that. If Faison sent up a contract to play, and GT signed it, there is a 100% chance that UND would not back out of this game.

Because you actually said it!! Own up to your BS comments!!

Hey Gothmag. I am calling you out. Quit ducking my question. Please give examples of UND backing out of a contract in regards to scheduling a school to play in football or any other sport. Still waiting!!

UND is an unreliable business partner. I guess we can add that that to the ever growing list of excuses why GT won't schedule this game. (P.S. still waiting for examples of when UNd backed out of a signed contract to play a game.).

Can you please provide specific examples of UND backing out of a contract to play a school in football, or any sport for that matter?? Since you are an expert on UND's track record on the subject, you obviously know!!

So its UND that has to worry about PR damage to its football team...doh'kay

Those were all great things to remember about the weekend that made it pretty sweet. Except for one thing. That was not Ed Belfour at the Old Mattress Factory Bar. I was there....close...but deffinitely not Eddie! Many people were duped by him!!

Dude, you are sounding like a whinny little baby!! Seriously. If you don't like the way the University runs its athletics, go cheer for someone else. Bitching about it is not going to solve anything. Rationally discussing how they can make things better is perfectly fine. Once you sop complaining and blaming people and actually talking like a rational person that doesn't have a chip on their shoulder becuase of decisions made in the past, I will listen yo what you have to say.

We can't even get people to pony up 15 bucks to go to the game let alone donate to the team for jerseys. How bout we focus on that first!!

Guess what...the team will play games and win games wether people are watching them on TV or not. sure it is not as good of a situation as it is now with FCS, but to say it is the most damaging thing that could happen to UND?? Now that is just crazy!! Faison has made some questionable decisions in the past, but being a leader in getting the NCHC formed was a pretty big accomplishment. Getting a National network to broadcast games is a pretty sweet deal two. Would you rather be playing in the WCHA playing on the FSSN? Sure next year is gonna be not as great, but that doesn't mean it can't improve in the future. ext year will be the first year of the conference and the new TV deal. It will get better. Just freakin RELAX!!!

No bar, but they do have a waterslide!! Applebee's is right across the parking lot. Turning into the unofficial Sioux bar/ restaurant in Brookings!!!

So if you are driving back from Omaha today you will most likely be stuck somewhere along I29. If not, you should be. Interstate is closing in parts. Lots of Sioux fans here in the Holiday Inn Express in Brookings!! Where is everyone stranded?!!

If it rains Saturday (chances are it will not) they will most likely play at the Century Link Center on Sunday. There is a Creighton basketball game Saturday night, but they can probably convert it over pretty quickly withing a couple hours. I am sure there is a contingency plan if the the weather makes it unable to play the game outdoors...even on Sunday.

Side note: Jim Cornelison will be singing the National Anthem on Saturday. In case you don't know who he is...he is sings the anthem at Blackhawks games!! I love how the crowd cheers as loud as they can during the entire anthem!! Goosebumps!! Hopefully we can replicate that this Saturday!!
