Niiice...

Agree. Spot on, I went thru next year's schedule and came up with 6-5.

Tuttle

Yah, he was quite the shooter/scorer, Played HS hoops in Wis, right, or am I wrong?

Spot on. Long range, struggles, but mid range jumper is lethal.

And if Portland St played Maine in a FCS play-off game at let's say a regional in Cincinnati, it would be at least half empty too. Point made is that the NCAA is stupid playing hockey regionals at neutral based sites. For some reason they're a little bit smarter about it when it comes to FCS football playoffs.

ASU is impressing me this season. The NCHC needs to get the Minn St Purple Cows and ASU in our league. And if we're talking facilities, ASU I believe is building a new one or has solid plans in place to do so. 10 in the NCHC is a nice number.

Hey, we can agree to disagree but I would consider it a better coaching job/season if a team goes 20-3 and loses in 1st round of a post-regular season tourney than if the same team goes 13-10 and loses in the 2nd round of a post-regular season tourney (especially when you're talking just 1 a game "series" where anything can happen). Explain how not facing a school's #1 sport gives Brewster 8 free wins? Seriously, you lost me there.

Huh??? Beg to differ.

I agree 100% and have thought the same thing. I'd rather see them play hoops vs D-2 Duluth, St Cloud, Mankato, etc.

Did I just read that Drake's football coach resigned after going 33-22? If so, in light of that, what's Bubba's record over past 5 years? As good as that?

Yup, ranked ahead of Mia-FL, Wis, Mich St, N'Western, Boise St, among others. Why they haven't moved up by now confounds me, can't imagine UND playing D-2 hockey as a powerhouse for near a decade and staying at that level. Sooner or later it will happen I guess...

GF Herald on-line story on today's game: "Iowa State scored the first 8 points but the Hawks did hang around for the first 4 minutes, trailing 9-6. But UND later went through a nearly 9-minute scoring drought and the Cyclones took advantage, going up 38-9." Oh man, times are indeed bad when story says "did hang around for the first four minutes". It's damn near impossible to NOT hang around for the first 4 minutes, isn't it? and I think "drought" is perhaps being kind. Yoy, yoy, yoy. Tough days indeed.

Hey, I hear you. I see NDSU lost at home tonight to Milwaukee by just 2 pts, better showing points-differential wise than UND did on Fri. SD schools no doubt are head and shoulders above ND so far in the D-1 era.

Uh, yup, quite the insightful article/game summary. Should expect nothing less I guess from a big metro paper.

Not sure about that, these last 2 seasons we haven't actually to heard it very much. I would actually like to get a little tired of it.

Get ready to rumble in the Summit! I believe just a few weeks ago S Dak beat Iowa St by a half dozen points or so.

Yup, my first take was he (I assume) was indeed being sarcastic. Had to be.

WTH? Klabo didn't make a bucket in the 1st half? Wow.

It really was a much bigger sport at UND in the 70s, 80s, and into the 90s if I recall. Heck, at today's game there were close to as many cheerleaders and dance team girls in attendance as there were students. I didn't even see a band.

I'm not a sushi eater but there can't be that many sushi restaurants in town, are there (not that Sakura can't necessarily be good I guess)?

I hear ya, so freakin' naughty but effin tasty...

I've been pretty fortunate service-wise at Wild Bill's (food-wise I'm so damn unfussy that I'm not a good judge) in my several visits there but at the Tavern in Canad Inn two of my last four trips on a mid-Sat afternoon over the last 2 - 3 years it has not been super busy at all yet meal has taken like a good 45 min to be served. Blew me away how slow the service was despite not being super busy at all.

Agree, we had the pedal to the metal late 3rd period and in most of the ot. It took a deflection by Den to win it late. I really think UND wanted it more or at least had most of the play late at least. Sometimes it just comes to bounces (and lack of finishing).

Agree 100%. DU is decent, for sure, but I think they're not St Cloud or Duluth. I think in the NCHC it will be St Cloud, Duluth, WMU, then UND/Den fighting for 4th place in NCHC.
