even though i tire of Darrell and DaveK feeding the trolls... it appears that you are a fan of the right team.

if i'm not mistaken, FU got Bohl from Nebraska when he was DC there. Nebraska's prestige/profile is as strong as Notre Dame's. All it takes is a commitment (read salary) to a successful football program. Or does hockey have a corner on that market at UND?

is Sorenson still playing? He may get that in the air alone. Another Big Sky track meet. Definitely over.

After watching what Notre Dame did to Oklahoma last night (despite allowing the first rushing touchdown of the season) one has to ask what it would cost to bring in Notre Dame's Defensive Coordinator as the head coach. Is UND willing to fund the football program to achieve the level of their competition or is the administration content to be the Big Sky's next Northern Colorado? http://www.und.com/s...iaco_bob00.html

Sac State 35 and the ball Cal Poly 29 1:59 to go in the game Edit: final. NAU last unbeaten in the conference!

from this article - What a great endorsement of the old-style smash mouth football the Fighting Sioux played:

How about someone who can actually wrap their arms around a running back or bump a wide receiver at the line of scrimmage and still keep their feet under tham?

So-o-o-o how about Dale Lennon taking one from the Bison? What could be better than a UND win this weekend? This would be a close second.

More than likely would not have made a difference. Since hockey was already D-I and had the Bennet Brien logo on the front of the jersey, the Fighting Sioux would have been in the NCAA's crosshairs whether the rest of the teams were D-I or D-II (or even D-III)

I think it comes down to not enough camera angles if the games are not televised, and even some of the televised games don't have enough cameras to get a good look on a replay.

not sure I agree with all this, but will agree that "new & improved" is not necessarily improved

When did that become a requirement to play on this defense?

Unfortunately, football is a 60 minute game, not 30 or 45.

It's not an app. Go to siouxsports.com in your mobile browser.

still, Nielsen closed the deal

so what you're sayin' is it will be another Big Sky track meet.

yeah go to the Chirachuas and you swear Wile E Coyote must be there - I did see the RoadRunner. Congratulations on surviving the Sorry Gulch. Love the San Franciscos and Sedona. Congrats to the Jacks on having the best team you've had in many years. Sorry, but I hope UND can parlay the home field into enough of an advantage. The Sioux need to get back on track.

No, my daughter goes to The U of North Dakota, but grew up in southeastern Arizona - Sierra Vista. A lot of Buena grads go to NAU, and she would always give her brother a bad time about NAU. Have nothing against NAU & think Flagstaff is a beautiful town. Just wish I could afford to live there.

tryin' to get out of the office for 9 this afternoon, but work keeps gettin' in the way.

As my daughter says when she talks about where her older brother went to college: Not A University

sorry, meant it as a joke and a jab at the violation history of NDSU and Miami but forgot the smiley's

Taylor's next job just opened up... Miami's history would not preclude Taylor's resume Miami Searching for AD Stability

Lets bump this thread so the Montana State rivalry thread can get back on track. Darrell, The "problem" with NDSU's OOC scheduling, if there is one, is that it is working. Call them cupcakes if you want, the AC plays weak BCS schools and win, they play weaker FCS schools and win, so they pad their resume, and more importantly boost the players' egos (if they need any more help after winning a D-I national championship). Bohl does a good job of not letting his team look beyond weaker opponents and lose games they should win. Then they go and win more conference games. Faison and Mussman should be paying attention. I would say that hate them if you want, but Taylor and Bohl have a system that works. If you were in their shoes, would you be willing to roll the dice and possibly lose to a regional rival (maybe not a conference rival anymore but definitely a recruiting rival) and risk losing? I still say the only way this rivalry will resume (at least as long as Taylor is at NDSU) is in the playoffs. And then, unfortunately, since the Fargodome is bigger than the Alerus, it will be in Fargo every time until UND is the top ranked FCS team and NDSU has to travel in a late round semifinal.
