The quality that I saw highlights from was much clearer so not sure if Flo is sourcing down or the xsplit broadcaster is. Still better than alot of coverage across the country.

Alex does lives in SF and drives up for the weekends, made the move a few years ago. I think he would stay with UND on Midco. He is a USF guy anyhow I believe. Also Midco has 3 channels. And SDSU/USD/Augie/USF always get put on 2nd channel if UND is playing. I would bet it would be the same. UND on Midco Sports 1 and Augie on Midco Sports 2 if on conflicting nights. Not conflicting games all on Midco1. Midco needs additional content for their secondary channels and this would help.

His jersey was pulled off his shoulder pad. Not sure how that isnt called. The 2nd UND defender was blocked in the back too, but official wasn't looking there. The Holm hold the official is looking right at it

Like most that transition they will remove sports, most likely wrestling as 1. But they also have a large donor that they are able to keep going into his deep pockets.

Denny Sanford gives huge donation. New rink is called Midco Arena. To start play in 2023.

Odd that I find no one that will be kive streaming their announcement on campus. Groundbreaking on new rink occurs south of 33rd and Grange

It is advertised in Sioux Falls. But have yet to see any media there leaking any info ahead of time. 4:30 today announcment

It is encouraging to see alot of people on this board mad that we didn't win and not happy just because we played NDSU close. UND should've won that game. 4th down our our own 20 while in the lead is one of the dumbest play choices I have seen. It's maybe different if we are trailing and need a spark but we had showed our defense could hold. If we were up 7 or 10, maybe a little easier on it, but failure to get the 2 yards and you have them in FG range already for a kicker who doesn't miss, while only leading by 1, so giving them the lead. To be honest though if they attempt to convert on that 4th down instead of kick it we are even further behind. But the play calling once we were down by 2 made it seem like we were in the lead and trying to protect and run out the clock. Also if NDSU didn't see on their last drive that they need to go back to what they did in the spring with running #44(I believe) then I do not know what they are thinking. He runs tough up the guy and chewed up atleast 3 yards every time if not more. All they were trying to do was run clock off and it turned into a TD drive for them. How huge it would've been to stop them that drive and get a FG even to take the lead and make NDSU try to drive the field in the end, forcing them to throw that hadn't worked for them all game. Clock management in the 4th was bad too. There were a few plays in the end of the 1st half and end of the game that there was a WR/RB that had the chance to get out of bounds and instead attempted to get more yards but kept the clock running, we also believe there was a timeout in pocket at the end of the game, but I believe we may have saved that to set up a FG attempt with little time left on the clock if we could've scored a TD on the last drive, and converted a on-side. But failure to get points on the board before half seemed crazy.

We had no problem completing passes for 2-4 yards all night and do not try it when NDSU is selling on run bc thats what we hdid on 4th all day.

And false start the two times we had Boltman behind center

Midco showed NDSU 1 UND 0. I believe

NDSU would take FGs all day if they can keep getting them and holding UND to 3&outs

making a few mistakes early that have yet to really hurt UND. Need to clean it up.

Leaves less defenders downfield, but if it works we will take it. But would sure like to be back to when we had some DL that would get in the backfield.

Great defense there, when it came out of his hand, I thought we'd have a closer chance at a INT.

Why did our tackler put his head down to try to make a play there? Right along the sideline, push him out, don't let him cut back inside.

It looks like the kicker is trying to not kick it to the endzone. Why?

ESPN+ Says technical difficulties. It is on MIDCO already. 1st play was NDSU Run, and NDSU RB is injured. Game just came on ESPN+ now.

as well as a few other things such as more excitment for Vegas next year, when hopefully things are more normal. Already rescheduled game, people were wanting the game last year to stay on every 2 years rotation, etc.

There was 4 defenders and 1 wr on the screen where he tried threading that to. 3 defenders surrounding him. Why force that?

That hurt. Few big points in this game. Only 3pts off the interception. Getting thr ball to the 13 and either then only getting the FG or the int not sure which. Had the USU RB stuffed on 4th and 2 before the 2nd effort got him in. Also come back to the PI in the end zone on 4th down. Turn the head around and no call. The ball literally hit the UND defender in the back where WR had no chance. UND had drive going into the 4th down 3 and came away with nothing. Went back to predicited play calling. Hard part of the score is that USU kept playing when they seemingly had the game in the bag. Spreading score out futher.

Think he may have been tugging on his shoulder. The previous PI play looked like it hit our guy in the back before any contact was made. That one was the questionable one to me. Ball was way short.

The Arena was a odd size if I remember right. Tifht behind the net, i thought it was less wide with the circle going right up against the wall but that photo didn't show that. Capable if they still have the compressors, but that area needs alot of work, looks dumpy now with the less upkeep. The Premier Center has their main locker room set up with the Stampede and their former GM (who became USHP comissioner) was part of the reason that the Aeros went to Iowa when they were long rumored for Sioux Falls with Russo even believing that was their destination. The other reason was the premier center also was a year behind on construction and they needed a landing spot once Houston contract ended. The Iowa contract was initially a 1 year contract I believe. Also if they would play at the Premier Center it would then be not be eligible for the NCAA regionals they have scheduled being a home site, even with Omaha hosting.

Also, I believe they do not require a conference to elevate to D1 in hockey, which I believe they do in D2 and have been rejected by the Summit League so far. Alot easier taking 1 sport than all your sports as a independent.
