  1. If we run the table from here on, which is possible and which would include a win over EWU, then we finish 8-4 overall and 6-2 in the BSC. MSU, UM, and EWU will have to go head to head resulting in some loses. Through in a few upsets and a place at the top of the BSC for UND is possible, most likely as a shared championship. From there who knows, maybe the playoff selection committee will place a lot of weight on winning in the later part of the season. Is all of this likely..no. But it is possible.

  2. Its refreshing to see a knowledge-based and objective perspective such as presented by dagies. My Dad, USN WW2 veteran, passed on recently. He served on board a tanker carrying aviation fuel in support of Allied operations in North Africa and Italy. For four years he lived with the reality that at any time he might die in a fireball. As he put it: "those U-boat captains wanted us pretty bad". The worst times were sunrise and sunset, when the Germans liked to position themselves between the sun and their target to conceal their periscopes. That is when the U-boats were the most predatory. This last Memorial Day was the first since Dad died. Anchors Away.

  3. I think the media would put a pretty big negative spin on it if the Alerus turned them down. "Alerus refuses access to NDSU football team". It was build with tax payer dollars so it's their job to take any revenue paying gig they can get to make money. Now they just have to worry about the locker rooms being trashed or ripped off. I hope they asked for a big retainer to cover vandalism and theft.

    USD is coming to town too?

  4. Get rid of it. Terrible song. And if you're going to do a video shoot of a band "playing" the song, get people who at the very least know how to hold an instrument. As a musician, there's nothing worse than seeing people getting paid to pretend to be musicians.

    Also as a musician, I agree 100%.

  5. We need to have someone on staff who can expand upon one of the successes of Mussman et al which is recruiting Illinois. We have a proximity advantage over all our Big Sky rivals to miwestern population centers like the Chicago metro area and can offer recruits routine trips to exotic destinations like Cal. and the Montana Rockies, something our midwestern (Summitt) competition cannot match.

  6. The NCHC deal with CBSsports certainly complicates the issue of how best to bring the games into your home, even for those of us in the MIdco footprint. Do you go with the 70$ package combo for 6 regular season games and the playoffs when you can otherwise do with webcast, or go to the bar for those games and wash your greasy barfood down with beer you don't even want to drink?
