  1. There hasn't been an 11 or 12 seed to advance to the Final Five in the past five seasons. In fact, only one 1 or 2 seed has even lost a game in the opening round (2008 North Dakota in the Saturday game 3-2 in 2OT against Michigan Tech).

    2006 was the last time a bottom-two seed defeated a top-two seed - #9 UMD defeated #2 Denver.

    EDIT: 2008, 2009, and 2010 would have been 9 and 10 vs 1 and 2, respectively. 11's and 12's came into play in 2011.

    Isn't 9 and 10 anyone? The number 6 seed won it two years in a row, isn't that anyone? How about we wait and see? If 11 and 12 is Alaska and Duluth or Tech and Bemidji, and your not worried about them.........good luck!

  2. Funny how the hand shake line is to sacred to not hammer someone. But not sacred enough for someone to keep his smart ass mouth shut to deserve a beating, but that same pansy knows the beating will stop quick enough because it is the sacred hand shake line......only the little girls from Mn get away with this and a year later still rub it in the face of the fan base from the retaliation team!!

  3. Cause it's fun and something to talk about. It's not a very serious discussion. Maybe we could dub them the buzzkill line?

    Really.......can't people just have fun with it and not knock a guy trying to start a convo because the boys looked good and that line gave us all a sense of butt kickin time is starting just in time.....

  4. At the lake cabin this weekend because they got a foot of snow by Bemidji. We are going to ride! So I'm watching the game on FCS, first time, and I've read all the complaints! First I think Hammer and Kober are fine to listen to. Katie is hot, does a good interview, her accent that everyone bitches about is the same as 90% of the people around here! The voice does NOT line up with their lips and that does drive me nuts! Over all I have to ask, what's with all the major complaining? I'm usually at the games, so this is the first for me.

    GO SIOUX!!!

  5. Whoa whoa whoa, AZSIOUX...do you mean UND is NOT ranked 50th in the Pairwise this morning and Bruce McLeod is NOT boxing up the MacNaughton Cup and shipping it to Mariucci Arena?

    Somebody better put out a bulletin on Siouxsports.com ASAP before any more fans jump off a bridge.

  6. this has more to do than with what happened last night. look over the last few weeks, look at the types of goals he/they have allowed an x factor goalie doesn't let those types in game, after game.

    Your right, the Sioux suck, put the sticks away, oh and give the rodents the hardware also, God knows it ends and titles are won in January, aren't they?

  7. Which is no good. But when you drop the Tool line, you (well, him/her not you personally) are just making my point. There is no room for any of it. Theoretically our kids are the next generation of fans. Why turn them off. Why call people names when it is brought up?

    Some people just do not get it. The odd thing is, that I have brought them to other venues and never had an issue.

    Ah well, they are in every bunch I guess.

    Well tool, didn't know you were so fragile? My point was everything you stood on your soap box about happens from your fan base also! So your ranting means nothing! It happens everywhere, and I dislike it also, but what do you do? The tool comment was because you made it sound like Sioux fans are the only ones that act like that. That comment alone makes you a tool, sorry........

  8. Oh my god, this website is full of lurkers waiting to pounce. And i cheer for the same team!!!!We have had guys great this time of year for the last ten years! Lets have a guy great at the end of the year once, see what that gets us, and if you don't see the potential with Saunders and Gothberg, i could careless what you think! Lets see what happens when it counts for something, shall we? Oh and I'm sure this happened because I made this thread........... What losers!!!!!

  9. Danny is reading the trailer and looking to clear out a rebound to turn it back up ice. Possibly creating a 3-2 the other way.

    Joe didn't check him effectively, but still pushed Condon pretty wide.

    Let's not blame Joe or Clarke or Danny and call it like it is...that was just a beautiful snipe of the far-side upper from a tough angle.

    I agree, I think Danny didn't take the guy with the puck because he was doing his responsibility on that scenario...

  10. Have not posted here for quite a while. That being said now is a good time to break the silence. (not that anyone really cared :) )

    I will miss the rivalry as far as the talent level of the team to be named later goes. They have always been competitive, even more so late in the season when it counts most. It will be tough to find the intensity anywhere else.

    I can do without the post whistle sillyness that always seems to occur when MN plays the team from 94 West. I am sure it happens when the Gophers play other teams as well, but definitely not with the frequency I have seen historicly, and I expect to see this weekend.

    Regarding the fan base... Welll, if I never see another Whioux fan, I am good with that. I am sure that there are decent, grounded fans of your team out there, but I have not met them. When your fan base started hurling F-Bombs at my 5 year olds in Grand Forks a few years back, you lost me. If they wanted to rip me because I was wearing Maroon and Gold, that is fine. (dumb, but fine) I am a big boy and I can dela with it. But when groups of people start yelling and swearing at kids, (adults were doing this, not teenagers) it is pretty disgusting. Not sure how that made them feel tough, dropping the FBomb on kids til they cried and laughing. Pretty pathetic.

    So, if I never come across a ND fan again, fine with me. You will not be missed.

    Meanwhile, it should be a good series this weekend. Hopefully the games are close, and no one gets hurt.

    Wow is this pathetic! I could give examples of this at the REA from goof fans during a home game against the rodents. My daughter was 8 than, and the jerk of was trying to pick a fight with a 70 year old Sioux fan. But hey, make sure your claim "all Sioux fans are like the ones you encountered" Maybe I should do the same? Tool......
