UMass has looked good in the tournament.

We have had way too many of those over the past 20 years, considering the talent that has come through this program during that time. And if Duluth wins it again, you can throw out the tired old "parity" argument.

People are tired of postseason stumbles. It just wears on fans after awhile. I don't think you are the only one.

Exactly. The standard in Grand Forks is NCAA titles. Nobody remembers who makes the tournament and bows out early. Having said that, it is premature to start calling for a change at the top. I think Berry will reload and get us back to the top of the mountain again.

I have already decided not to watch the Frozen Four. Tired of watching other teams win titles. And no cheering for Duluth, I hope they lose to UMass.

You can congratulate them, I for one am sick of them. I hope they lose 6-0 to UMass. Duluth is proving that parity is a myth.

While I am a little tired of playing second-fiddle to other programs (first Boston College, now Duluth), talk of replacing Berry is pre-mature. Duluth isn't going to win titles forever, nobody does.

Why are you talking like we are a marginal program that is not capable of reloading? Cripes, you are talking like we will finish at the bottom of the league next year. Things aren't THAT bad.

I don't think this was an example of an interior team beating a much better team. Both teams were/are solid with few real weaknesses.

It is up to the athletes themselves whether to come back or not.

Probably alcohol.

Umass looks like a solid, all-around team playing well at the right time, like us in 2016. Duluth is far from a shoo-in in Pittsburgh.

It is okay to feel bad about last night. That is part of fandom. Thrill of victory and agony of defeat. We'll be back, no need to jump into doom and gloom mode about the future. The program will be fine.

Sandy didn't do so great his first 10 years in Duluth and a few years after the 2011 title. It just seems like he's been winning titles forever.

Time to get the "Thank you Seniors" and "2021-22 Season" threads ready.

Please stop bringing that up.

Not really the same thing, but I understand what you are saying.

Teams play back-to-back games all season. And last night wasn't that grueling. I think we should have enough in the tank tonight.

Well, that screws up my bracket.

I can feel the old Schlossman Rule creeping into my brain. #badmemories

He is still bitter about 2000.

I am pretty confident it is 6:30pm Central Time.

I am not feeling all that confident tonight. Last night was the third straight game where we turned it on and off and still won. How many more times can we get away with that without it biting us in the backside? If UND plays for 60 minutes in all three zones, they win. If not, they can start making their tee time reservations.

Assuming it happens.
