Irish hockey to host Michigan at Notre Dame stadium outdoor game https://www.ncaa.com/news/icehockey-men/article/2018-10-30/irish-hockey-host-michigan-notre-dame-stadium-outdoor-game

So why the delay to announce the Nashville game? Waiting for the football schedule to be released? Penn St to formally accept to play the game? I would guess with the buzz of the Vegas game still hanging around, You would think they would make the announcement sooner rather than later.

http://www.grandforksherald.com/sports/hockey/4521438-commentary-und-destination-games-keep-growing-popularity "And, assuming they get things finalized, Nashville 2020 will be bigger than Vegas." Given the high demand for Vegas tickets and the number of fans that wanted to go but couldn't, and the fact that the game will be in an 17,000+ seat arena....Absolutely Nashville will be bigger than Vegas. Just for the fact there will be well over twice as many people there. Can you imagine a scene like this on Broadway on game day but instead with a sea of green UND fans?!!!!+

Nashville will be great. Arena is downtown right off Broadway. Hotels are very close as well as Broadway which is packed full of bars and restaurants. In Vegas, UND fans were spread out over a very large area. In Nashville, most people will stay downtown, so I think you will see a lot more green. Not to mention there will be twice as many fans there than in Vegas!! Another perk.......much cheaper!!!

Well, we got our "Quality loss" of the season. Should bode well for us come Playoff selection time!!

Totally agree. One of the best and most refreshing things about the game on Saturday was that there were no adds playing on the big screen or adds playing during stoppages of play. (Or at least I didn't notice any). The one thing that has yet to be mentioned is the music that was played during the stoppages!! Great songs with great bass beats to get fans clapping. Also some great remixes!! The music was one of the more underrated aspects of the game that I thought was great!!

This.^^^^^. Place is going to be rockin!!!!

I wonder if the Orleans Sports Book will have the game available for betting on. Would be a awesome if they did. I am sure there would be some novice UND fan sports gamblers that would place a bet for the game just to say they did!

The countdown is on to the Vegas game this weekend. Many of us will be heading to Sin city in the next couple days. For me (and maybe others) it will be my first trip to Vegas. There are hundreds of websites telling you the "must see" activities in Las Vegas. Obviously the Strip, Freemont St, Bellagio Fountains,etc are popular hot spots. I can go online and find others as well, but what I am looking for is tips from those of you that have been to Vegas and give suggestions of places you gone, sites you have seen, restaurants you have eaten at....stuff like that. Call me crazy, but I respect the opinions of most people on here and am curious of the suggestions of those of us that can help the rest of us newbies the best way to make this trip awesome. Alright, let's hear it. To all you Vegas veterans, let me know what I gotta check out!!

So does this mean you are warming up to the fact that the FCS and the MVFC is the best fit for UND and NOT the FBS route?!!

Absolutely what they should be doing. Encouraging more people to get in the building needs to be the key. Make new fans of people and have them be a part of the whole game day experience from the tailgating to the game is much better than watching it on TV.

When is the last time you could say you tailgated in the parking lot before a hockey game?!! Loving that we get to do it on Saturday!!!

I get it that there will be many fans that are going to be in Vegas this weekend that would typically be at the football game on Saturday. I am going to give our fans in this situation the benefit of the doubt that they will give their tickets to someone else so they can attend the game. So I confident the attendance will be great for the game on Saturday. Also, the football game is at 2pm, the hcokey game is on at 9pm in Grand Forks. No reason why fans can't do both.

I have been saying this for 2 years now!! Brady and JJ can carry thew load in the backfield. Santiago is most dangerous when he is has the ball out on the corner and has to only make one move on a corner to get a big gain.

So where is the watch party in Vegas next Saturday?!!

Lots of shakeup in the top 25 this week!! #3 SDSU Lost to UNI 24-9 #4 JSU Lost to SEMO 37-14 #6 Mcneese Lost to Incarnate Word 45-17 #7 Illinois State Lost to #1 NDSU 28-14 #10 SHSU Lost to Lamar 41-23 #20 Maine Lost to W&M 27-20 #21 ETSU Lost to # 12 Wofford 30-17 #23 URI Lost to #17 Stony Brook 52-14

Bubba sounding like we just lost 41-15. “Gotta play better football”. He has a point. Lots of mistakes tonight.

480 yards rushing. Is that a UND record?!!

I guess that fake FG attempt wasn’t such a bad call after all!!

We haven’t given the ball up on a kickoff yet!

The look on Bubba’s face after that miss says it all. Yikes

No need to pass the rest of the game!! Pound it!!

Pound the rock. They can’t stop the run. Kett doesn’t need to pass it the rest of the night. Time for the D to step up!!

Maag time!!!
