SUU game commentary ends with a dial tone. SUU should be embarrased...

hang on to the ball PSU

portland very efficient on 3rd down conversions

Portland's qb looks like Studsrud, same size and number and runs the same runing plays

all portland had to do to virtually assure itself a win was hang on to the ball

I hope neversport can figure out a consistent video for our game.

I think overall standings count for a lot more than conference record.

EWU 78 yd TD. Damn

Hope you're right

Don't we jump ahead of EWU if they lose, and ahead of the loser of the NAU/SUU game?

Neversport experiencing tech difficulties. EWU/PSU Seems to be a pattern.

Hioux?

Tonite our opponents will get to Meet the Fhawkers.

UND 35, CP 24 UM 40, MSU 31 PSU 28, EWU 17 NAU 31, SUU 14

My thoughts exactly...embarrassing.

OK, since I have not had much reason to pay attention for a few years, what can be expected for viewing options for the first round of the fcs playoffs? ESPN3 webcast? ESPN(2)? Can we assume all games will be broadcast in some form?

Worst case scenario even if UND wins: Montana beats MSU EWU beats PSU

If UND wins then we will have a 7-4 record, same as the loser of the NAU/SUU game. Both SUU and NAU have as one of their wins a sub-FCS opponent. So my speculation is that UND would then jump ahead of the loser of that game.

Well, prior to the Wyoming game the conventional wisdom was that the Cowboys would mop the floor with us. So in my mind the UND win in Laramie should be meaningful, but my opinion carries exactly zero weight. BTW, the games of interest next Saturday will be played in Cheney, Cedar City, Bozeman, and, of course, on Cal Poly's home turf.

So, from the ongoing discussion, our best chances of getting into playoffs occur under the following scenario: UND wins PSU beats EWU MSU beats MU SUU beats NAU (not sure about this one, correct me if wrong) Checking the schedule, one could spend all day next Saturday watching things unfold. MSU/MU play noonish/early afternoon. PSU/EWU and SUU/NAU start late afternoon. UND plays Poly at 8 PM Central.

Voted Roughriders after voting Nodaks in previous rounds. I do not understand how in some peoples' minds having a HS team in town named RR's is more of a detraction than becoming another Hawks team in our own hockey conference. I have been a fan of the UND FB team almost my whole life and the hockey team nearly as long, but I have to say that becoming Fighting Hawks will dampen my enthusiasm, at least for awhile.

I am embarrassed for UND that the new name is going to be Fighting Hawks.

Having to accept losing Fighting Sioux was easier for me than having to accept F. Hawks.

Somewhere, maybe here, I read a description of a consultant as someone who borrows your watch to tell you what time it is and then keeps the watch. This description fits the consultants who gave us Fighting Hawks. I think this is what bothers me so much, is they are going to have a big payday at our expense of having a cliché for a name, and it took them maybe three minutes of their precious lives to come up with it.

I'll never warm up to Fighting Hawks.
