Given our current options I think it is pretty cool!

+1 for both Jdub27 and Risky.

Learn to read. I said "to go to the Frozen Four," not the Frozen Four.
You are right, however the week prior at the WCHA Final Five the Minnesota and UND game was a sellout at 18k plus. Now mooooooove on!

Bison fans can talk all they want about how nice it is to go to road games in the Summit. The reality of it is that most Bison fans might go to 1 or 2 road games in the Summit A lot of their fans might go to only 1 game and a lot of their fans won't go to any road games. That defense of the Summit league is just a smoke screen. The most exciting thing about the league that you are in is the type of home games that your schedule provides. The same goes for the football league you are in. At this point I can't wait for the Big Sky.
Good point; just another empty excuse! On the other hand I enjoyed driving up to Greeley from Denver last year to watch the boys play Northern Colorado, and I will do the same this year when we visit again. The attendance for that game was a sad 3,000; at least 500 were Sioux fans and many I met lived in Colorado. My point is it will be pretty hard for Nodak UND fans to go to many away Big Sky games (other than Montana and M State as it would be well worth the 10 hour drive) but it is sure nice for Alumni out west in places like Denver, Utah, Cali, etc.

FCS football will never be what DII is now. DII trashed all the scholarships. They wouldn't do that to FCS. But if they for some reason did, NDSU would again be forced to find a new home for football, and that home would be in a higher division. I'm guessing UND would wait a few years to see NDSU be successful before jumping up.
If FCS gets to the point of being a pathetic shell of its former self, the Big Sky will get hit hard too with Montana and Montana State bailing. I hope everything gets worked out and NDSU/UND, and any other school who has some dreams of being at a level they can compete at, can find a steady safe home.
At this point that is all I am looking for. I keep hearing rumors of all sorts of FCS schools looking to move up (basically the ones we would want to play) and I just don't want to be left behind again. I like FCS but not sure what it will look like in 10 years.

The only thing we can do is be ready for what is best for US when the time comes. I think SiouxFan is right in that 10 years time FCS football may be an equivilant to what DII football is now. I just get the feeling that FCS is not the final solution. Any thoughts?

This should be very interesting; I also can't wait to see who is standing top in a couple positions after the dust settles.

I don't really understand why Fox North was blacked out in places like Las Vegas, but I was able to watch the game on Fox Sports Pacific in Maine.
It was blacked out here in denver as well. Missed the first period.

That Union/UMass game was not entertaining at all. Lots of mistakes and slow play.
I can't believe how "easy" that side of the bracket is compared to the other side:
Union/UMass/Ferris/Cornell vs UND/UMN/BC/UMD
Wow.
Well said. I am also not a fan of not seeing a single UND highlight all afternoon and evening. they seem to show every other games' highlights but ours. On the flip side I bet if western beat us they would have been showing it all day.
Just win boys!

find someone with midco internet. Go Sioux!

The reality is that the majority of people who are saying that they will not donate to UND if they drop the name actually never have donated in the first place. I believe the Champions club had a record year.
-
For those in Denver Jackson's on 20th street by Coors field is the place to go for UND hockey. I called yesterday to ask them if they were showing the UND game and their answer was "hell yes." Pretty cool spot!
-
The majority of us are not "anti nickname" but rather "anti destroy UND athletics." Unbelievable

Its not the practice facility. That wont be finished for 3-5 years.
What's your best guess?

I have Directv out here in colorado with the sports pack add-on so I am able to get FSN as well as FCS. If the bar you are at in vegas has directv you should be able to see it.
-
Awesome, my internet here in Denver is through Century Link so I cannot get espn3. Good work all around to get this done!

I read somewhere that they were okay because the Aztecs are an extinct tribe; not sure where I read it but maybe someone has more concrete facts.

Mussman seems to not abuse twitter so when he speaks using that medium it must be something important and the suspense is killing me (that and being bored in the office on a Monday). I am hoping for the IPF announcement but not holding my breath either.

Sneak peak at Missouri's new uniforms; pretty cool matte black helmet IMO: http://bleacherreport.com/tb/bfAMz?utm_source=newsletter&utm_medium=newsletter&utm_campaign=college-football

Is that 2:30 central? What a great way to spend a Friday afternoon stuck in the office!

I like these a lot. And an inverse of the black/green for the standard home jerseys would look great as well. I'd love to see those black jerseys once a year.
Black jerseys for the Montana game would be siiick!
-
I think the mines game can be a looked at as a "work the kinks out" type of game before we enter a very tough schedule. Not happy about the non D1 aspect but it is what it is. Just win one game at a time.
I recently read that SDSU just had to release a star transfer from USC and they also lost a lot of starters from last season so if we play like we did at Fresno then who knows what can happen.

They will be on FCS. (Unless you watch them on DirecTV, then all bets are off, as evidenced by this past weekend.)
Interesting, I have been watching on FCS all year through Directv. I thought only directv carried FCS but there is always the webcast I guess. Thanks for the info.

This may have been covered but are the games this weekend on FCS or just the webcast?
