Well, at least it's not the name of a condom...

Why can't I quote anymore on here? Is listening to annoying ndsu fans brag yesterday negatively affecting my already limited level of intelligence? Anyhoo, I guess I had the opposite thoughts of Oxbow 6, about the upcoming Sioux/Bison game next year. Unless Bubba works some sort of miracle, this game could be really one sided. If that indeed happens, how is that going to "help" UND football? I am in favor of playing them; but not every game in fargo. Faison should have stood his ground for a more reasonable offer, instead of accepting this unprecedented away/away series between two FCS foes. No one was blaming UND for not accepting the ridiculous terms offered by ndsu, and we would have been just fine waiting a few more years until they come down to earth and agree to a more equitable home/away series with us. Judging by what I saw yesterday, ndsu will still be at or near the top of their reign a year from now. We will be at the beginning of year two of a rebuild. I just don't see how going to fargo and potentially losing by 40 points is going to be good for the program. Good luck getting any local kids to come to UND if that happens.

Exactly. I'm surprised Ron His Horse Is Smarter Than Him hasn't been heard from, objecting to the Cavalry name after it made a splash in the news this week.

We got em right where we want them now for the second half.

Lol. I'm at a loss for words. Well done! :-)

In case you're all illiterate- this is a thread about tonight's game. Bison Dan offered no opinion on tonights game- he just came here to argue others' opinions as is evidenced by his first post. And now you're here. We don't troll your sheep shearing and goat roping prediction threads. Please go home.

I find it hard to believe Cavalry is even a serious consideration. Since we can no longer have the name Sioux, our response is to choose a new nickname based on the Dakota battalions organized to protect settlers FROM Sioux Indians, and kill them, and drive them onto their reservations? Really? And this nickname is not going to be met with any complaints?

It's humorous how the trolls like yourself were on here all last fall telling us the UND vs SDSU score wasn't meaningful....and now this comment of yours. Priceless.

I say, no way Jose.. UND 20. SJSU 17

Ok Darell, I'm sold! Hoot yeah yeah....

Great pic..... That narrows my top two animal nicknames down to the Fighting Shrew, or the Hooters.

Nice!!!! I'd be ok with that!

What did he end up getting financially out of the Chiefs, now that they've cut him already?

Have those teams and UND talked about playing OOC games? If they have, or will in the future, do you think UND will insist on all games played in grand forks? Please list some examples for us where UND has refused to play area teams on the road. Thanks.

thanks for the link Darrel. they have a new quarterback, and a young offensive line.... hopefully our D gets off to a great start and makes life difficult for them.

As I mentioned a few days ago, here is the best plan: win the game next year, and buyout the 2019 game. I would gladly donate to that cause. UND would have all the leverage at that point, and FU would be in meltdown mode.

Shrew yeah yeah!!

Fight. On. Shrew. We're. All. For. You. We're thousands of strong and loyal moles!!!!

The last game was played in Grand Forks.... So, play this first game in Fargo, win, and then cancel the 2nd game. That wouldn't upset anyone at FU now would it?

I brought up Syracuse . you responded by bringing up Grand Forks central. I was not comparing the similarities of the previous nickname, I was merely pointing out that it's possible to thrive with colors being your nickname

So you're comparing Syracuse, to Grand Forks Central? I Haven't heard a nickname suggestion yet that sounds better than the no nickname name of green and white.

If having no nickname isn't a possibility, the Green and White is the next best choice. It allows the old guard to still feel an attachment to fighting Sioux, as green and white are just colors.... Meanwhile the PC crowd can run with Green and White and design whatever logos they want, while I wear my Sioux gear.... Which happens to be colored.... Yes, green and white. The Syracuse Orangemen changed to the Orange, and appear to be quite successful just having a color as their new name.

Thank u!

What are the tv options for this game?

That gave me an idea... How about the UND Aliases? Deep down we're still Sioux, but are forced to use an alias...
