I cringed a little when I first heard the line about the deep river and the water rushing over them. Not that I'm offended or whatever, but with people being so flippin' sensitive these days, i could see that line causing a bit of a stir.
I think it's weird/awesome that Minnesota, the 1 seed in the regional, plays the early game, and UND gets the late game. I'd think usually the 1 seed plays later.
