Put the photo from before the South Dakota game next to the latest one. I'd say South Dakota had around 500 more gone on Monday of that week than today. Should be close to 11,000
Lonnie Laffen, CEO and President of JLG Architects, said a new four-story building at 323 DeMers Ave. should see a groundbreaking within a year, with room for two business tenants on the first floor—like a restaurant or coffeeshop—and JLG employees on three more.

I think if 2-0 UND is ranked in the top 15 and with the Bison on the road and USD coming to town 12,000 is possible. Potato bowl has drawn the biggest crowd the past few years without a familiar opponent. However, this is only speculating if they start 2-0. I do think 1-1 still will draw 10,500 minimum. The buzz is building and a lot of people are getting behind Bubba.
You constantly monitor this board or what? NDSU didn't take UNDs best player out of the game, he did it to himself the week before by making true freshman mistakes fumbling three times and ending with 14 carries for 24 yards. Just saying it would have been a better game had Santiago gotten a few more touches, but UND still wasn't sure what they had in him by the third game into his career. I never said UND would have won.
Well Santiago did only have four carries against NDSU after having a case of fumblitis and running into his lineman in the Drake game. Would have been a different game against NDSU had he gotten more carries because quite frankly UND's offense couldn't have been worse in that game.
Guesses for Saturday? Weather looks like 55 and sunny. Most meaningful game in D1 era. However, I'm not sure too many people know this team still has a chance at the playoffs and it seems 1 pm starts draw smaller crowds. I'll say 8,200.
