It seems Wisco fans show up when the team is good. They're even pretty good about traveling. Better than Minnesota fans, who seem to hardly leave the state. But hockey at Wisconsin has floundered ever since UND upset them in the 2014 NCAA tournament. I would like to see them ascend back into a top 10 program.

I would like UND to schedule any of those teams in the first post. Any B1G teams and any Hockey East teams. Don't know what the appetite is for OOC, but I think it would be great for college hockey if the NCHC, B1G, and HE had an OOC scheduling agreement where every school from those conferences played a series against a school from one or both of the other conferences every year.

😂

This is probably the most excited I've been for the start of a UND hockey season in a long time.

I think this YSU will be a victory due to home field. But I am not expecting a drubbing. Probably something like 28-14, with that last UND TD coming in the 4th quarter. I'll be curious what the betting lines are.

Based on points allowed, I would say one of the South Dakota schools.

I didn't realize there were so many regular season games this weekend. I thought that happened the weekend after UND's exhibition game.

Seems like they are doing it because of McKenna. McKenna’s Penn State debut to be shown on NHL Network, YouTube | NHL.com

Watching Penn State and Arizona State on NHL Network. Has NHL Network televised college hockey before? They even have a “NCHC Hockey” above the scoreboard - is there some sort of TV deal that I missed?

I wouldn't mind the same thing in reverse. I've flown out of Winnipeg a few times.

Here are the details on the betting line for the matchup: Spread: North Dakota -17.5 (-110) vs. Northern Iowa +17.5 (-110). Moneyline: North Dakota (-1100) vs. Northern Iowa (+600). Total (Over/Under): 53.5 points (-110 for Over, -110 for Under). I would be happy with this kind of victory, on the road no less.

I think the implication is that this player is good enough to be on the radar of a Big Ten team.

Awesome!!

Didn't get to see it but UND started the conf. season with a win. How'd they look? USD still a formidable foe?

In the case of "I'm from North Dakota and I don't have ties to either UND or NDSU so I cheer for both," UND needs to make it its mission for that casual fan to have more opportunities to cheer for UND than NDSU.

Potato Bowl is always the first home game, right? That's Sept. 5 (Labor Day weekend) in 2026. Additionally, it's the only home game in September next year, so I doubt it would be moved a whole month later.

4 wins.

I think JTJ can hit the portal as far as I am concerned.

JTJ in now. And another TD.

That's how you close a half.

I can't wrap my head around that this would be true, but if you consider penalties as a by-product of this statement, the evidence is there.

A little too much zip on that pass from Jerry.

Ring the bell!!

I thought the point of this game was to get reps for non starters?

Guessing one of the next two road games.
