UNDBIZ

Perhaps combine these 2. Use fireworks similar to those used at the end of hockey wins in REA. Set one off after each UND score or maybe save a little $$ and just do it after each touchdown.

HORRIBLE acoustics.

Does having a doctorate from UND make someone more of an expert on the athletics department than a person with a bachelor's degree? I know several doctors who I consider to be idiots.

This bothers me a lot too. It's rare/unheard of to see UND corners attempting to jam receivers at the line to disrupt timing.

I haven't watched any MSU games this season, but based on the final scores of many of their games it appears the cats tend to play to the level of their opponents (UNC game excluded). I predict this game will be close early in the 4th quarter. What happens from there depends on which UND team shows up on Saturday. Edit: Also, MSU gave up 41 points against a mediocre at best Cal Davis team. Unfortunately, UND will need to score at least 45 to win this one with how terrible our defense is.

Many of the hockey-only folks blame the move to D1 for the loss of the Fighting Sioux nickname. Similar to DaveK, they would tell you the move to D1 was dumb. I admit that 8 years ago I didn't think a move to D1 was necessary, but looking at who is D2 now (Minot, Mary, Bemidji, Crookston, Moorhead, etc.), we certainly don't belong in the same division as them.

Bet last week's profits

Hopefully that drops to 3 after saturday.

I'd include them as a homer pick, not sure that UND deserves it at that point though. Finish at 6-4 (D1) with Cal Poly and E Wash staying top 10 and NAU top 20 and I think UND may have a case to be ranked 21-25. Edit: But first things first, let's get a win this weekend!!

I'd guesstimate 2,000 students (in the student section) at hockey games. UND student headcount was over 15,000 this year, but that includes online students.

This is really surprising to me. It seems like most teams score an 80 yard touchdown on their first play against our defense each drive, which you'd think would result in fewer total plays in the game.

FYP

At this point you wouldn't hear a lot of UND fans arguing against it.....

Ah yes, Sagarin COMPUTER RANKINGS, which has UNI has the #6 FCS team in the country..... what a great measure and obvious proof of who would win the game.

Just realized there aren't/haven't been many Sioux Yeah Yeah!! cheers in the Alerus (regardless of the current nickname situation)

I actually agree with Johnson here. Also, it's much easier to do the preferred hockey seating incentive for bball and vball games as they take place in the adjoining building.

From the 2012 Attendance thread Even when we had good student attendance 5 years ago, the students were all either gone or ready to fall asleep in the second half.

Allow underage drinking in the student section in the second half

7-0

No need to take offense to that, we're all pretty elite compared to NDSU folks.

I appreciate the fandom and Moo U hate, but that's a bit of a stretch.....

Except for UNI......

I could see bizun losses at EWU and maybe versus Cal Poly. NDSU would've beaten NAU by 3 scores, beaten Montana by 2+ scores, and (based on what I've seen/heard about them thus far) would probably beat the cats by 2 scores. Edit: All that being said, anything can happen on gameday, they could go anywhere from 2-3 in that stretch (unlikey) to 5-0 (plausible).

UND never steals wins because we (the fans and the team) always expect the win.

UND won 40-34. Hardin with 333 yards (und record) and 3 tds
