You know this how?

Exactly, that's horrendous logic. So, I am getting this vibe that some are happy with the status quo? Things are okay since we won in Division II. That mindset is the reason NDSU is marching along in the FCS playoffs while our favorite team is in the offseason. We're satisfied with being better than 75 percent of the teams. Doesn't anyone want to be the champion instead of the bridesmaid? The Fighting Hawks are the laughingstock in ND. People know that the Bison are the benchmark in North Dakota and laugh at us. As an Alum, I want us to be better. I am tired of first round exits and coaching contract extensions after 5-6 seasons. We should be pissed.

Honestly, what does that have to do now? I mean seriously, most of those great memories were 30 years ago. Or 5-10 years ago. Yep, Big Sky Championship, that was awesome, and then our favorite team went out and lost to the Richmond Spiders in the first round. SDSU might have never won an NCC title, but they're quickly leaving UND in the dust, in football and in Men's and Women's basketball. Do we want to continue to accept mediocrity? We had fans that wanted to fire Berry because he hasn't won a second round NCAA hockey game since 2016. Why can't we have the same standards for the other sports? The UND football program is oozing mediocrity, and has been for along time.

So, If am reading you right: 75% of the FCS fans would trade with UND, meaning they'd accept a 7-5 season and a traditional first round exits every year?

Where was UND last year at this time? Heck, a lot worse off.

I talked about this with Virg Foss last night, too many passes. Just shot the F'N puck.

Just for the record, the sky is not falling. This isn’t last year. Today is a new day and UND 12-4-1, 5-2-0 in the NCHC and I predict a turn around tonight. By the way Schlossman predicted it would be a 3-2 CC win last night. When the score hit 2-2, I was taking pictures and mumbled F-Bomb!

In the post-game press conference, he wasn't a happy camper. He was pissed. He basically said there were a few passengers tonight and didn't come out ready to play or something along those lines.

Dude, why are you chirping me? I don't recall me, the goon, defending anything tonight. It's one E'F game and some are ready to go full freak out.

Or, possible entry into the Summit?

I gave my thoughts on NCHC.TV

Anything less than a sweep this weekend is UNACCEPTABLE!

I don't believe that is true. Ludvig Persson is one of the top goalies in the conference.

Again, UND played the top offense in the country. They're number one for a reason. We might want to give DU some credit. I also think the Mile High City wore them down in the third period. I thought both teams had trouble at times. This was No. 2 vs. No. 3. I thought it was a good weekend of hockey. -- I think we thought anything less than a split was unacceptable.

You're kidding, right? UND is one of the top defensive teams in the country and went head-to-head with the top offensive team in the country.

UND hasn't swept DU in Denver in 20 years, 4/6 conference points is pretty good. It was not the result they wanted, but a decent weekend.

That has to be the quote of the year.

Nick is a little salty tonight.

What's the Difference Between Hathaway's and Smith's Hits?

Did the Wild’s Kirill Kaprizov Get Away With One?

Well, I guess that's the standard now. They count 65% for a 3v3 OT win. Why not, right? The NHL does. I'd like to see a regulation sweep for the green team.

I might have misunderstood you, but it wasn't a sweep. UND won the shootout, not the 3v3 OT.

Yeah, I think she's done a good job.

That would explain Taylor's tweet this afternoon.
