Win tourneys

Still don't know why flickertails is not viewed in a positive light. Unique, tied to the region, cute little animal.

Starcraft is pretty much a religion in Korea. FIFA and NCAA football have both been religious for me in the past

But AP is different.... If you don't believe me, ask the Viking fans.

I forget some teams shoot for playoffs while others try to build for super bowls. Vikes aren't winning one anytime soon. Might as well build for the future.

Look at running back production in the league after they hit 30. Vikes couldn't win with this guy in his prime... Might as well build a team without him. Again, if you guys are okay with being a .500 type team, cool.. Bottom line, if this guy played for an elite franchise like New England or Pittsburgh, he'd be taking a pay cut or be traded.

He isn't getting younger. The Vikings are not a super bowl team. Logic says... Get rid of him. If your goal is to go 9-7... Keep him! Have fun watching him have another season or two as a premier back. If you want your franchise to go anywhere at all... You get rid of him now... And build. I'm not a Viking fan... I'm a Steelers man myself... So I got no dog in the fight. The best running back in the league is making maybe 10% of what AP is and he is doing it in Pittsburgh.

Dr. Lou is amazing. Very successful in his coaching days as well

Not many. Hard for me to tell. I've always been in the student section and the other teams fans are on the same side of the field but at the other end. I think they get 500 tickets and they usually don't use them all I don't think. Im just thinking und will get more because of family, friends and tickets owned by businesses will likely not exclusively give them to NDSU graduates, at least I'd hope not.

I think at most maybe 1K UND folks.

You are that bent out of shape about a guy putting a decal on his car? For all you know, the guy's work was appreciated and he was given a decal. Goodness

With that contract of his? Idk

North Dakota is a member of the United States. Let's keep D1 hockey discussion within the borders of nd.

I can only imagine the collective puckering taking place if the herd go 3 and out to start the game.

She didn't invent anything.

.... Bro the value of the tickets was speculated to be inflated well before the hockey tickets.

Early in the year is always tough. They could play Jamestown College and fill the place. Plus it is against a team the students are supposed to hate. Also, I don't expect the team to be as good this season. Closer games should equate to higher student attendance I think. You'll be paying scalper prices if you want in.

Is that why UND has so many online students? Honoring an alum?

Older folks yes. Students, Meh.

I am on forums. I don't represent a person with average interest in collegiate sports. Funny you mention the basketball games. The first couple had some atmosphere. The last 3 have not. At all. Ask the average college kid about the other school and you'll get a lot of comments like "ohhh.. That's right. We aren't supposed to like them."

The only fun I'll make of und is the thing about using tech school kids to fill up the dorms because the school can't. Other than that, Meh.

If your kids are in college, that means I can reasonably assume they are my age or younger. Last time the schools played I was 11. Your kids probably couldn't spell arrogance or entitlement the last time the schools played. Again, they don't like NDSU because dad taught them. The rivalry is so unbelievably real that I've had friends from up there ask every year if I can get them football tickets. They like to come cheer on the herd.

That animosity probably comes from dad. Same way it is with my family.

No. I do not.

I've been to each of them. Fewer and fewer at the game each time. I don't think that's a coincidence.
