  1. Winning will get fans into the stands, expecially if you can do it constantly. But it does take time. My Highschool didn't win a fb game for like 5 years, and the week we won one we had twice as many fans, but last year when we were in every game late, and fell just short of .500 our games were packed till the end.

    In hockey, we seemed to get more fans once the sex chants started being used all the time.

  2. were there not just have a couple of hockey players in trouble for this? pretty sure that got swept under the rug as "college kids doing what college kids do".

    And that makes it alright to do Election Fraud? every school has athletes guilty of underage drinking, election fraud, I have not heard so much.

  3. NDSU is a good team, but by how their fans make them seems so great is overkill. I think it would be a quality matchup. If they want to bring up National Championships and FBS wins to a team just out of the transition period, then we can brag about how UND has 7 Hockey championships to NDSU 0?

    UND played a great game, and had some good defensive plays from time to time, they know their offense is good, now they can focus on their defense.

  4. Good game, the Pick 6 came up to be a big part of the game. This game even as a loss show that UND can be a top FCS team, expecially because NDSU is #1 and they only won 21-7 over a terrible Colorado State team. I think UND would beat NDSU this year, passing offense is just too good.

  5. Are you talking about just UND games or for all Midco Sports broadcasts? I thought that they were going to use the same equipment for UND games. Maybe they are using a different distribution system and losing some signal. I know that they are working on HD for next year for UND sports. And I know that they were setting up a studio in Grand Forks, but I don't know what kind of equipment they were going to be working with.

    UND's Broadcast the last two weeks were 10x better then Sodak State today. It could be because it was SoDak State making it look so terrible though.

  6. I think geographically hurts some of the attendance, but shouldn't be much effect if UND had good numbers in the past. A hour down the road you have a national champion, and Grand Forks is North East ND, so if your not coming from the west, your on the edge of the FBS Minnesota fan base to the east, and people to the north already have ice, so they are too worried with hockey.

    Its a little easier to see SDSU getting more people with being the only major college team in the region(Besides USD(Who has some attendance problems as well from what I seen in the past)) My hometown an hour west of Brookings had dozens of people going to State Games at Coughlin Alumni games quite often, and I hear of people from Watertown and Sioux Falls(large populatation hub with no D1 school) that travel to Brookings weekly as well.

  7. Just remember you don't need an FBS win to put butts in the seats...South Dakota State has yet to beat an FBS team and they can pack Coughlin Alumni Stadium.

    What else do SDSU students have to look forward to, Hanging out with other farmers? I'm a UND student from SD, and I hate SDSU, they think they are the !@#$ since they nearly beat Nebraska a few years back.
