Wouldn't THAT ruffle a few feathers down in Imperial Cass County! I know it is in jest but considering the buyout for UND to back out is $250,000, I don't think it will be happening. I also am very curious to see what happens to this game if UND were to perhaps be in the MVFC at this time? NDSU would rightfully be upset because they aren't going to get a home game for anywhere near that price ($140,000). Would they play twice? Quote

They would most likely schedule that game in as the conference game, maybe even moving the date a week or two. MVFC would get involved. Quote

MVFC would get involved. While I agree that would be the simple solution, I also think that NDSU would have a legitimate beef losing a cheap OOC game. Something would (is) likely being figured out with the discussions before UND would be formally invited to join. Due to cost, UND obviously wouldn't want to be seen as the ones "walking away" from the game. Without seeing the contract, it could be possible that there is some sort of clause in it that addressed the possibility of the two being in the same conference. 8 minutes ago, UNDBIZ said: Wtf. We agreed to a buyout nearly double what they're paying us to go there? Yes, was announced when the games were announced and there was rightful anger about it then as well. Another one of the crazy thing GT threw in while moving the goalposts again, thinking the offer wasn't going to be accepted. He (and most others) underestimated Bubba's determination to play the game again. Quote

When we opened The Raplh in 2001, we played the goofs in the 1st game in the season and is was a OOC game. We were both in the WCHA. Quote

UND played Montana in 2013 as an OOC game on the back end of a home and home (first game was in 2010). We ended up with 3 home games in a row against them 2 conference and 1 OOC game. Quote
jdub27 Posted January 20, 2017 Posted January 20, 2017 I think the bigger difference would be the possibility of playing them twice in one year because you would guess that the conference would make sure that game is on the schedule every year. Maybe they make an exception in what would likely be the first year UND would possibly be playing a MVFC schedule. All hypotheticals at this point I guess. Quote

I wonder who the QB's would be? Pure educated guess, but for UND I'd speculate ... Andrew Zimmerman or Brock Boltmann. In 2019 Zimmerman will be a senior and Boltmann a sophomore. Quote

Watched him play a couple times this year and was very impressed, but kept thinking he would be a much better fit as a safety at the college level. I'm sure the coaches will get it right. Quote

He looked good at safety in the MN all star game. We need him at qb though. We have 0 depth there. Quote

SiouxVolley Posted March 22, 2017 Posted March 22, 2017 Strange how our FBS games switch to the Midwest from the Pac12 just as we're moving from the Big Sky. Quote
UND-FB-FAN Posted March 22, 2017 Posted March 22, 2017 Nice to know we have secured FBS games well into the future. I like having Iowa State in Ames, Iowa, on a future schedule. Quote
