Well when you are an ag school in an ag state...yeah?

Bison 38 UND 10

1. It is a big game. Against a local opponent most would consider a rival. 2. I think having another university so closely with a large number of alums within an hour drives prices up. 3. This goes back to 2, anytime you drop a few thousand more interested parties that wouldn't ordinarily be interested in a product into a pool of customers where supply is limited, that will drive prices up. ---------‐----- The point I have been driving at, is that ticket prices alone are not indicative of a rivalry game. If UND played U of Manitoba in Manitoba in hockey(let's assume it was a game worth watching), I would venture to guess ticket prices would rise as a result of a demand that outsized supply. That doesnt make it a rivalry game. NDSU/UND is certainly a rivalry game. Thats not my dispute. I'm 100% exclusively attacking a point that says "wow tickets are more expensive that usual, clearly it's a rivalry game." That statement is far too simplified.

I was obviously wrong about Carson's ability to succeed. I was also super confident Brady Quinn was gonna tear up the NFL. Good thing I have no plans on making a living out of analyzing football eh? Awesome for him and NDSU. Free advertising every Sunday in the fall. I have an interest in North Dakota D1 sports in general. Of course I'll cheer for NDSU and against UND. This week was nearly equal to Christmas in my house as a child. Of course NDSU are my boys this week. I might even watch this week for a change. Lmao you can be reasonable and still get hype about a chance to beat on the "bad guys." Probably is NDSU folks driving it up. SDSU doesnt have super high ticket demand otherwise outside of maybe USD? I dont use ticket prices as the main indicator of a rivalry game. I couldnt tell you who the Queen 4/5 years I was in college. I knew one because she was my sister's friend and I recognized her on the jumbotron. Nowhere did I say it wasnt a rivalry, or NDSU fans didnt want to go. I said using ticket prices as your reason for it being a rivalry doesnt work.

If one fanbase is exclusively driving up demand, that would certainly retract from the "rivalry" discussion. I sold the 4 of the worst tickets in the dome(won a radio contest) for the EWU game a few years ago for $500. I can buy tickets for this weekend on vivid seats right now for under $100/ticket. Does that mean NDSU vs. EWU is a rivalry?

His argument sucked. I didn't deny the conclusion.

The most expensive ticket in many years, possibly ever, for UGA will be a game against Notre Dame in a couple weeks. Your logic is poor. Your conclusion is fine. Just your method is legit trash.

If they expanded it to 8(or more) teams, and set aside a spot for the top G5 team, I wouldn't wee why they couldn't potentially do it.

Yeah if you cant get into NDSU/UND....maybe 4-year college isnt for you lmao. It's one thing to not be cut out for a difficult major, it's a whole different thing to not have the grades or scores to get in.

What is the manure pit and is it related to college hockey destinations?

Disappointed no one has advocated for South Bend

I was able to get in touch with him a couple years ago. Wanted an autographed photo for my dad's mancave. He took care of all of it. Dude rules.

Heck even if they made a game of it. Last time was just so bad.

Virtually all? Do you want to retract that or????

Mhm. Week 1 struggles are forgotten or forgiven provided you get a W. Once they saw what Louisville's offense was doing and adjusted, the game was over.

The State? Ifs and buts lmao

It already had a good trophy. What's the point in playing for anything else? Either bring it back or dont waste time on a trophy.

Huh?

Well darell, I have been to one game in the last four years so I can't exactly be held responsible, now can I?

That shirt is perfection. And nope, most of my friends hit up at most a game or two per year. I don't know that we are exactly the target demo for future season ticket holders. And spare me the racism nonsense. That dog ain't gonna hunt.

Johnboy and VMeister got us a deal. I think he got the better winnings but all in all I'm confident my boys can hold up.

Sioux suck ****! On the Bison first down chant, my friends and I helped with the addition of the "Sioux Suck ****!" that comes afterwards. Hopefully you hear it a lot next week. That should help!

You are right. I dont pay room and board when I'm home. I pay 1500 bucks for what is the size of a dorm room basically though.

What's rent going for these days?

Oklahoma went to overtime with ARMY last year I believe. ND is allowed to struggle with a P5 team after being a playoff team.
