The NCHC should not be looking to add any teams unless they have a team or teams drop out. 8 is the Max number that should be in the conference. Still don't like that we only host 6 of the 7 teams each year and only go to 6 of the 7 teams each year. Unbalanced schedules suck.
No interest what so ever in St Thomas. Accomplish something at D1 and get back to me.

IMO it comes down to getting enough money to support the other Athletic programs at UND. Most other D1 programs do this with their Football program. At UND we need to do this with our Hockey Program. If they get a Butt load of money and assurance they will not get kicked out once Illinois joins I say go for it. Otherwise stay in the NCHC.
Personally I would be shocked if they would offer a bunch of money to join as the Big Ten is too argent and could care less about hockey.

Pretty sure its because they are responsible for the death of a child.

One of my Favorite Regular Season Wins was at UMD in January of 1999. Down by 1 and scoring 2 goals in the last 6 seconds for the win. Winning on the Road is the Best and listens to the UMD fans around us thinking the game was over and the misery on their face after was wonderful.

Without green glasses, what would you say the odds were that UND would have won it this year? These one and done tourneys are so unpredictable as we all know.
I say they had a 50-50 shot of winning it all. Other teams I think had a great shot this year: UMD, Mankato, BC
I want to say 50-50, but in reality it is probably 1 in 3 chance.

Humm... I think the NCAA shuts down the season and awards the National Championship to the team that is #1 in the pairwise.
As much as I want #9. This would make me puke if it was won this way.

I always feel bad for the assistants when the Head Coach gets fired. Most the the time they are without a job also and have no buy out and didn't make nearly as much as the Head Coach.

How many years did he have left? He was a good step in the right direction, but seems like we need someone different to take the next step.

So fans. Here lies the question:
Do you rather want Penn State in Pennsylvania, or Denver in Colorado.
IMHO they put Cornell in Albany so that's out of the question for us. I think if Denver does something crazy like win the NCHC tournament and moves way up we will be in PA.
Funny how where our guys end up is controlled by how Denver plays until the NCAA tournament.
Why not UMass in Worcester? That would be my preference.

Brewster needs to go. Losing 3 of 4 to a bad NDSU team is not acceptable. Time for a change, he has lost the team.

The pollsters drop us to third place. Do they know something?

While PairWise still has us at # 1.
IMO The top 3 could be interchangeable. All 3 are very good teams. As soft as Cornel's schedule is you don't only lose 2 games if you are not a very good team.

Looking at the 4 teams in the running for the last #1 seed and their RPI and PWR, it still looks to me that the NCHC frozen faceoff game between DU and UMD will be for “which team gets the last change in Loveland”. And of course, for a shot at the University of North Dakota team Saturday night.
i am sure if I dusted off my monte carlo statistics program I could tell you the probability.
Western Michigan might have something to say about that. W. Michigan might be 3 seed

Too Many True Freshman playing right now. I like the Freshman class they just should not be playing as much as they are right now. Give these ladies a couple years and I think they can compete for a Summit championship. The Team is really missing Melissa Leet and i think that is why they are playing so reckless. If they let the opponent get set up they get killed in the paint. Right now no team in the Summit is able to play with USD not ever SDSU. They seem to be the best Women's Basketball team since any of the Dakota schools have joined the Summit. It will be interesting to see how they do in the NCAA tournament.

Decided to give this a try. Here's my guess for this week:
Northeast-Albany (ECAC host):
3) Cornell vs 13) Maine, 7) U Mass vs 10) ASU
East-Worcester (Holy Cross host):
4) Duluth vs 13) Quinnipiac, 6) Boston College vs 9) Clarkson
Midwest- Allentown (PSU host):
1) North Dakota vs 16) AIC, 8) PSU vs 10) UM Lowell
West-Loveland (Denver host):
2) Mankato vs 15) Ohio St, 5) Denver vs 12) Northeastern.
Made swaps to avoid first-round conference match ups. (think I avoided them anyway).
If they send Mankato to Loveland in the same region as the best 2 seed and host Denver than heads better roll.

Asking for a friend,
Does the whole Sioux/Hawks thing keep the crowd out of it a bit? Can’t agree on cheers etc, won’t yell “Sioux”, or won’t yell “Hawks“?Last time I was in ND was Feb 14, 2014. Girlfriend and I flew across the country to introduce her to UND hockey and ask her to marry me. The game with DU was a tie but the building was undeniably quiet compared my years.
I wanted to start a section chant but yelling either name seemed awkward.
Yes, The last couple games I've been to there has been a graphic up on the scoreboard "Let go Hawk" trying to get the "Lets go Hawks" cheer going. I few people chant "Lets go Sioux" but that is about it.

Looking for 5 Lower Bowl Tickets for Feb 14th vs Denver or 2 Tickets close to Sec 101.

100% sure that was a backward pass and the ref's should have to answer for it. No way should the whistle have been blown. When it is close like that you need to let it play out. You can always review the call and reverse it. No way to reverse the call after blowing whistle and calling it incomplete. With that said no one knows for sure what the outcome would be after that. One thing is for sure ILL States chances are much greater if the Ref's get the call correct.
Hope justice is served this weekend and Montana St kicks their a$$.

Normally I would agree. For the first time ever I will hope ndsu wins. If somehow Nicholls pulled the upset it would just give the AD a reason to keep Bubbba since they lost to a team that just beat ndsu.
For UND to get to a championship level Bubba has to go. He is not the guy to do it. Unfortunately I suspect they will see it as progress that they made the playoffs and Bubba will be back. Just delays the inevitable that must happen if UND is going to compete for an FCS title. I certainly hope I’m wrong.
Are F'n kidding me. Hope NSDU wins? Never ever ever. Bubbas not going anywhere regardless of what happens next week

If they are thinking playing Holm against Ndsu assuming they make it I'd just sit him next game. Not willing to burn a whole year of eligibility for what would likely be a loss with or without him.
If pull off miracle and beat NDSU he plays rest of year

Bump this. If you haven't listened to this podcast with Kent Haslam, you need to.
This is a good Listen.
Is there any place to see the SRS computer rankings? That's seem to be a key piece to selecting the field.
