fargosioux Posted February 5, 2013 Posted February 5, 2013 until this team puts together a 120 minute weekend against an opponent other than tech or holy cross I can't even fathom a sweep and when does a blais team get swept at home(almost never). split, 3 points at best. Happened twice last year. Quote

LakotaNation Posted February 5, 2013 Posted February 5, 2013 Can I ask why some of guys are wearing their shoulder pads on the outside? Or not wearing a jersey? Also we're coaches present or just a captains practice? i guess some took the practice jersey's off. no biggie Quote

Emerald joker Posted February 5, 2013 Posted February 5, 2013 Commemorative goalie masks were created for the event More photos here I like that round logo, I wish they would put that on the new jerseys Quote
AZSIOUX Posted February 5, 2013 Author Posted February 5, 2013 Classic photo of Saunders in the herald in full pads in back of a pick up truck after practice...bahaha. Quote

yelo09 Posted February 5, 2013 Posted February 5, 2013 what section is that picture from looks close to where we might be seated Quote
UNDBIZ Posted February 5, 2013 Posted February 5, 2013 Ugh, that view is not very good and I don't see how other seats would be any better. They should've arranged the ice to be closer to the stands somehow. I guess I'm not sure how though.... maybe by not having a hockey game on a baseball field..... Quote

They should've arranged the ice to be closer to the stands somehow. I guess I'm not sure how though.... maybe by not having a hockey game on a baseball field..... It would have been better if they moved the rink closer to home plate. I doubt they are going to sell many outfield general admission tickets. Moving it closer would make it much better for the people that sit in the lower bowl, especially towards the bottom. This view isn't bad...but upper deck is the way to go. If you go to ticketmaster and pic your seat, you can see that most of the upper deck is sold out. Sure you are higher up, but you will have a much better view of the ice. Quote
jdub27 Posted February 5, 2013 Posted February 5, 2013 Husker Mike's blog has been following the ice and rink building and has some pictures. Looks like I will be somewhat happy with my seats in 219. Quote
brianvf Posted February 5, 2013 Posted February 5, 2013 The best view of that game will be on tv. 2 Quote
siouxforeverbaby Posted February 5, 2013 Posted February 5, 2013 Via @UNDMHockey: "Saturday's outdoor game will be available via webcast at http://AmericaOneSports.com" What channels is the tv and any word on if you have to pay for this webcast? If so, how much? Quote
watchmaker49 Posted February 6, 2013 Posted February 6, 2013 What channels is the tv and any word on if you have to pay for this webcast? If so, how much? $8 TV Friday NBCSPORTS Quote
Goon Posted February 6, 2013 Posted February 6, 2013 What channels is the tv and any word on if you have to pay for this webcast? If so, how much? The Friday game will be on NBCSN which is 220 DirecTV. Saturday's game will only be on MIdco and Cox Com. Those that have midco can tell you what channel that is. Quote
MattC Posted February 6, 2013 Posted February 6, 2013 Has it be revealed if the outdoor game with be broadcast in HD? Quote
Wilbur Posted February 6, 2013 Posted February 6, 2013 Love outdoor games, but outdoor games in baseball stadiums....meh.....I guess Wrigley and Fenway turned out okay. They should play a frozen four in an indoor football stadium. That'd work. Quote
farce poobah Posted February 6, 2013 Posted February 6, 2013 Just pointing out that the attendance from this weekend's series (around 40000 plus or minus) will bump Nebraska Omaha's per-game average by about 2200 fans. This would rank them above 19 D-1 men's teams, if that were the only attendance they had all season. Massive. Quote

This would rank them above 19 D-1 men's teams, if that were the only attendance they had all season. Massive. I saw a tweet earlier that said only around 10,000 tickets have been sold for the outdoor game. I belive the stadium seats 24,000. If the weather is nice maybe a lot of tickets will be sold the day of. Not sure how many tickets have sold for the Friday game at CenturyLink, but Omaha trypically draws 6,000-8,000 for home games.

Went to the series in Omaha last year, and both games had 10,000+. It helps that Sioux fans travel well. Quote
