Wildfan

If we went FSN, I would have to think we get a Fox Sports North Dakota (Similar to FSN-Wisconsin) that is just FSN content until the time that UND/other ND content is on. That way they are able to do FSN, FSN+, FSN-D and I'm not completely sure if the 4th channel is considered to be FSN-W. While I was typing that I looked it up, it appears Wisconsin doesn't subfeed from North anymore, but do still have offices in the Twin Cities. FSN would want to maximize viewership and they would need a third channel to do that with UND games they can't just show it in ND Markets as there are plenty of UND ALumni/fans in the cities. So they would need to be capable of broadcasting UND/UMN/Wild games at same time, just like they do with UM/Wild currently. Timberwolves would still lose out, but it would give them a third channel to use if there is any conflicts with the odd sunday Big Ten games with Wild on also. I have read that Tim H applied in past for PxP position. And I know the hockey PA guy has said that he wants to become radio guy for UND sports.

or in the Union and by qdoba

are UND fans on wyoming or Drake's forums?

Regionalization needs to be thrown out. Does it seem to make a difference much in attendance? I know the reasoning is money by busing teams; but it can screw teams over. I rather see a true playoff, best of 1st round vs worst as determined by rankings, etc. I know it is hard with everyone playing different schedules, but still. I'm not a fan of the MVFC but to lump them all on one part of the bracket, similar to what happened to WCHA in hockey plenty of times.

I also think the justified the OT loss to Illinois state and considered it as a Win for them. I think this is a reason that ISU was ranked #2, i can see a argument to put ISU there, but I also believe the NDSU was a better #2 and was ranked higher most of the year I think. But you put EIU OT loss to #2 over UND loss to #3. They also gave them points for loss to Jacksonville State. Western Illinois probably should not have made it, yet they blew Eastern out. EIU scored 8 points COMBINED in 3 of their losses. Just thinking how many things could've went UND's way that didn't: ISU field goal in OT vs Montana; Ranked SDSU losing in 2OT to WIU; Citradel winning BCS game; UND Blowing 2 4th quarter leads; among many others. Overall FCS was odd this year, no one expected Portland State to be 8-2, beating 2 FBS schools IMO, quite a few under dogs pulling off wins in games they had no right to be in if you looked how they played all years, ex: USD over NDSU.

Some GF Herald writers do visit the forums, so it is likely. But still would be something we need to jump on if at all a possibility. Give the seniors one last game that they deserve.

There should be a split conference. Who would be in East? UND, Mont, MSU, UNC, ISU, NAU/WSU? I would think Mont, MSU, UND, UNC would be obvious, the rest just start to get so close to each other. Need another East(Midwest) Big Sky Team possibly, but have no idea who could fill that role.

I think our logo being a Hawks need the "cool" factor that alternate jerseys usually have. Maybe even have 2 if they go the bird route, because I think an alternate logo could be a military plane, or UAS, as many of those have Hawks in the name.

We were told moral victories aka losses don't matter. I guess they do now

I think we would beat SDSU as well

If we had played Kansas instead of Wyoming we'd be in. Or any more wins for wyoming.

Did Western Illinois play Illinois State? Did giving ISU #2 over NDSU possibly allow NCAA to sneak them by as a better loss than UND to NDSU?

does any of thos teams have a bebetter win than our vs PSU? I don't buy WIU over SDSU

It didn't freeze on me at all.

I heard SDSU didn't bid.

Meindel is actually capable of kicking the football deep in the endzone on kickoffs, yet our kicker isn't. I wonder if they have had him attempt long field goals at practice.

They have showed 2 ads though.

3 & 1 they should've ran Norberg. Grind straight ahead.

The credit that these announcers are giving us is great. Consistently saying "We know North Dakota is good, they are showing it" Also I would like to see Norberg start getting more carries and just grinding yards perserve Santiago more, he took a beating on that TD.

What else can we do? We gave them a new non-native american nickname.

I think it was Anderson, Stockwell was the player last week.

Is this the first time all year we have had more passing yards than rushing yards? Last I looked it was about 126-90. (Pass-Run)

Norberg is much more of a Oliviera type than Smith, not sure why he doesn't get many more carries.

Coughlin Alumni stadium is already taken apart. They announced any home games would be in Sioux Falls at Howard Wood Field.

I heard UND put in a nice bid. Also heard from some people from South Dakota that doesn't believe SDSU put a bid in. I assume it's due to Howard Wood being smaller, really not great seating, and even locker rooms are pretty bad unless those have been renovated in last few years.
