    So bison fans can feel some of the pain 

    I'll be honest with you; I'd like to have a team as goes that deep into the playoffs as NDSU does and plays for a chance to make it to Frisco.

    Schloss doesn’t have the …… to ask a tough question. He like goon thinks there is nothing wrong with this team. I’m tired of excuses for UND teams especially in the playoffs.

    Apparently, you missed that I just got done filleting NCHC.TV, but whatever lets you sleep at night.  I just said there’s needs to be changes with UND football. It was one weekend. UND is going to lose a game here and there. Did you expect them to 24-0 in conference play. This is the toughest conference in college hockey. Based on how Berry sounded in Saturday, it appears that an illness is going through the locker room. Also, some of the guys looked a bit banged up.

    So, the fact that the Jackrabbits are winning FCS titles is somehow diminished by not having won the old NCC since the 1960's?

    We should focus on the present, not the past.

    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.

    IMO he is saying trade for UND's facilities, fans, legacy, and upward protectory - we won numerous NCC championships, the Great West and Big Sky - a majority of schools have never won a conference championship. SDSU NEVER won the NCC. 

    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.

    1. I wish your venture well; however, I suspect its demise is more likely. I will be contributing directly to UND (for the tax implications) per usual. 

    2. I can argue "success" either way. Three quarters of FCS would trade with UND in a heartbeat. But measured against the xDSUs it's not enough. Conundrum. 

    3. Never trust an orange cat. One flooded a sibling's house. Not kidding. Tuxedo is the way to go. 

    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?

  6. 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!

    Can anyone summarize Berry’s post game comments with Hennessy? I didn’t get to hear it. 

    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.

    Where's Goon at to make up a defense to all of this poor play we saw tonight???? Where are the sympathizers at tonight? 
     

    not much of anyone around with only 6 pages for this entire game……

    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.

    Let me clear that up a bit. Defensive skills suck, those turnovers could have got us swept this weekend. Lucky we have an offense that can make it up.

    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.

    UND defense sucks, hockey and football 

    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.

    Berry seems to think it was a successful weekend. We got a little more than a split so I will take it. Honestly we got lucky getting to ot when they stopped skating. 

    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.
