Have you ever watched "To Catch A Predator"? It's not about wolves.

Personally, I want something that sounds good with "North Dakota" or "University of North Dakota" in front of it, and "Nokotas" ain't it. Plus I hate horses. People seemed to rally around my "Soo Liners" idea yesterday (although someone said it had been brought up before - good, that means it's an even stronger idea). I also suggested on this thread, probably 60 pages back, "Frackers" - a nod to our current state of affairs in North Dakota oil production. It works on many levels, especially with cheers: We will, we will Frack you, Frack the _______ (clap clap, clap clap clap), Fracker Backer(s) for student section or club membership, etc.

As is every Big Sky football game, as well as basketball and volleyball. Viewing is free. One of the best things about the Big Sky.

Let me ask people this: how attached are you to SOUND of the name "Sioux"? If you like the sound of the name, I suggest naming the teams after the Soo Line Railroad. Maybe something like "Soo Line" or "Soo Liners" which could be shortened to "Soo." The Soo Line RR runs through the heart of North Dakota, so it definitely is significant to the state. And, to my surprise, the name "Soo" is not a phonetic for "Sioux," but for "Sault," as in Sault St. Marie. The logo could be a locomotive on a track.

Eagles? Cowboys? My God, people, this is what it's come to? These are blandest, most non-creative, let's-be-just-like-everyone-else nicknames possible. Blech. Just Blech.

I know I will have no say in the new nickname (still not sure if I want one), but I absolutely DO NOT want an animal. I want something that describes the people of North Dakota, which is why I find "Warriors" or "Brave" the most appealing. Brave Warriors?

Based on the stats link provided by UNDsports, we swept SIU-Edwardsville 25-17, 25-17, 26-24.

Lost 28-26, I believe.

Tied at 26

Tied at 24

TO for match point 24-21. Need a run.

Pacific now calls TO - UND trails 19-17

4th set - UND trailing 19-15

Not a very good showing - lost 25-13. Hopefully Pryor has some adjustments up his sleeve.

Another UND TO - trailing 16-9

UND TO - trailing 11-6

Pacific takes set two, I believe the score was 25-17.

If I am hearing correctly, the radio announcer is calling us the "Champions" for a team name. Maybe he's on to something?! "Champions" win 25-21.

TO UND. SIoux had a 21-14 lead, but cut to 22-19, I believe.

Pacific TO - 18-13 UND lead

So updates will be needed please.

Midcontinent doesn't carry SEC network, so I can't watch online

Cool stats. We probably have played more sets than other good teams, so our overall statistics would tend to baloon. As for the aces - not serving aces doesn't bother me that much, as long as other teams aren't serving aces against us.

Good weekend for the girls. Too bad we couldn't give Iowa an even harder run for their money.

Didn't we play at 5 today? Any results?
