    A let's go Sioux chant was going on for a little bit, but lots of Fighting Hawks gear in the crowd. 

    #YearByYear

    "A" must now be defined as "multiple." Couldn't hear any hawk chants from the student section. Multiple let's go Sioux/Sioux forever chants..

    I don't get it, Murray clearly standing in the corner playing the puck and no penalty.

    You may be referring to a different moment I didn't see, but I noticed when Murray had his feet outside the trapezoid area, but the puck was within the trapezoid. This is allowed as the puck is the determining factor for playing it outside the trapezoid, not his body.

  3. Never said anything about the safety of trains but 176,000 gallons of oil is nothing to sneeze at either. Just found the bias remarkable that there was no mention of a 176,000 gallon pipeline spill in our community but multiple posts on an individual protester from a no-name website and posters cheering snow and cold weather putting protesters at risk. What effect would 176,000 of gallons have if it were to bust near the Missouri rather than the middle of no where?

  4. Looking at next years schedule, initial gut feeling is that the Eastern Washington game will be for the sole right to the big sky championship. Feel like the team as a whole will take another step forward as they have every year with Bubba, and start putting some teams away rather than nearly every game coming down to the wire. Yesterday sucked but remember that in our 3 losses we lost by a combined 8 points.. Mussman's last season we went 3-8 and lost by a combined 174 points (over 3 TD's per loss) - really puts into perspective how far we've come.

    The future is bright

  5. As others have said, thanks to everyone who has donated tickets. FWIW there's a good buzz around campus about the game, I've had more people ask if I'm going in the past 3 1/2 days than I had all year previously..

    It's all about bids/money after the seeded teams.  If we bid enough, we will get a home game...

    I realize that, I'm saying since they've been releasing weekly rankings and everyone knows we'd be the 9 seed in that situation, would they set us up with a team we would outbid like Western Illinois, rather than someone like Montana who would outbid us to avoid sending the #9 team in their rankings on the road?

  8. I'm confident we'll get the 8 seed, but say we don't, with this year being the first year the committee came out with weekly lists at the end of the year; does anyone else think we would be set up with a home game since it would basically be public knowledge that we are the 9 seed and it would look bad on the committee to send us on the road? Maybe I'm giving the committee too much credit but that's my thought process.

    I will say that they did this all of last year and remember someone mentioning this is by design. Not a great hockey mind but may be a better way to press the player into making a mistake

    Generally speaking you want to force them to make a play on their backhand 

  10. Team keeps finding ways to pull out wins, Game Day production continues to improve, fans are learning they can be loud on more than 3rd down, students were loud and those who stayed were treated to an excellent comeback and electric atmosphere. That's how you gain fans and keep them. Lots to be happy about tonight

  11. Looking through the schedules of the teams ahead of us in the stats poll, these games stick out as potential losses for each team

    #15 Youngstown St -- @ #4 NDSU this week

    #14 Cal Poly -- vs #3 Eastern Washington this week, @ Weber St next week

    #13 SDSU -- vs USD in 2 weeks, @ UNI the week following

    #12 Western Illinois -- vs UNI in 2 weeks

    #11 North Carolina AT&T -- vs South Carolina St this week, @ North Carolina Central in 3 weeks (I don't know much about this conference but their opponents are second & third in their conference FWIW)

    #10 Villanova -- @ Maine this week, vs #7 James Madison next week

    #9 Chattanooga -- @ Alabama to close out the season (does a loss to the #1 FBS team drop them any?)

    #8 Charleston Southern -- @ Liberty in 2 weeks

    #7 James Madison -- @ #6 Richmond this week, @ #10 Villanova next week

    #6 Richmond -- vs #7 James Madison this week

    #5 Citadel -- vs #20 Samford this week, @ North Carolina to end the season (another game against a top 25 FBS team to close the season)

    #4 NDSU -- vs #15 Youngstown St this week, @ USD to end the season

    #3 Eastern Washington -- @ #14 Cal Poly this week

    #1 Sam Houston St -- vs #17 Central Arkansas to end the year

     

    Keep winning and let the chips fall where they may, plenty of opportunity to move up yet

    To that end, why doesn't the Alerus leverage what works at The Ralph?  

    - When we score play Chelsea Dagger.

    - Use the band the way hockey does.

    - Here's your fighting hawks scoooriiing..........

    Welcome to the jungle has already been used, lets steal more.

     

    Thoughts?

     

     

    I've thought the same thing, don't see any reason not to. Give the students something they're familiar with to get them into it
