Smoggy Posted March 15, 2014 Posted March 15, 2014 1404 listed at the UND game today. Really seemed like closer to two thousand. Quote
bincitysioux Posted March 15, 2014 Posted March 15, 2014 1404 listed at the UND game today. Really seemed like closer to two thousand. I thought it looked fuller than that on TV, so I bought tickets for the championship game online last night, rather than risk getting turned away at the door. Damn ticketmaster fees..............

Damn ticketmaster fees.............. I picked up a pair during the hockey game last night, sounded like there was some good seats left. Tickets are only $10-15 at the box office window. Hoping it will be a good walk-up crowd, these girls deserve it. Quote

C'mon Grand Forks, surprise them with 2,500 fans in the stands today! Quote
Teeder11 Posted March 15, 2014 Posted March 15, 2014 I don't know how they're counting butts in the seats for these games, but I was at the UND-ISU game yesterday afternoon and I have been to many during the regular season. I was extremely surprised to see the 1,400 announced attendance, as I would have guessed way closer to 2,000, based on my experiences at other games this season. It sure looked and felt like it. I have been equally surprised by the announced attendance for the non-UND games as they have been in the 900s, and that seems very inflated versus the eye-ball test of actual butts in the seats. So I don't know what is going on. The only glaring hole yesterday at the UND-ISU game was the south side student section was nearly bare (they are on Spring Break, so cut them some slack). Bottomline: The Betty was rocking and there was a vibe in the air like no other game this season yesterday. C'mon, Grand Forks, let's come out this afternoon and support these ladies like we did at Hyslop in the 90's! Quote

C'mon, Grand Forks, let's come out this afternoon and support these ladies like we did at Hyslop in the 90's! I also thought the crowd was bigger than the reported number yesterday. In any event, the difference between a Friday afternoon and Saturday afternoon, not to mention the increased stakes today, should add up to a much, much bigger crowd. I expect well over 2000, and a nearly full house would not be too surprising. It's been seven years since we've seen a game of even remotely comparable magnitude at the Betty. Quote
Wilbur Posted March 15, 2014 Posted March 15, 2014 Not the biggest game in women's history today, but a big one indeed. Best of luck to them in what has been a remarkable year. Coach Brewster has done a great job, and hopefully the women's basketball team is brought up in UND sports discussion like they once were. They should play the game at Hyslop....Just cause.... Quote

Not to open up a big can of worms, but I'm still bitter Hyslop wasn't renovated and retained as the home of UND basketball. I loved that place. Quote
Wilbur Posted March 15, 2014 Posted March 15, 2014 Not to open up a big can of worms, but I'm still bitter Hyslop wasn't renovated and retained as the home of UND basketball. I loved that place. I've said it about the Old Ralph, and I think the same applies for Hyslop. Teams were beat before they walked into that place. I was at a game when they played SDSU when SDSU was number one in the nation and SDSU was beaten by the crowd. Couldn't handle the ball, couldn't shoot the ball, and Geno's gals just piled it on. 1 Quote
gfhockey Posted March 15, 2014 Posted March 15, 2014 I remember in 97 the d2 womens game at judys all morning with about 20 fans showed up to the game just hassled the other team all game long that was crazy the good ole days me and my crew picked up tickets doing the lep loop firs thten heading there Quote
SWSiouxMN Posted March 15, 2014 Author Posted March 15, 2014 Winner goes to the dance, loser to the WNIT Its the experienced team with a legendary coach vs the new kid on the block and an upstart coach Each team got a win against the other, but could have gone either way. the first 5 minutes of this game will be crucial. UND needs to get a start like they did last night so they can get the crowd into it. Montana will need to keep the crowd out of it. UND just needs to play their game and hit timely outside shots and take care of the ball and they will win. UND 70 MONT 62 Quote
darell1976 Posted March 15, 2014 Posted March 15, 2014 UND lost by 3 at UM and beat them by 5 at UND. With a big crowd expected...UND 60 UM 53. Quote
Wilbur Posted March 15, 2014 Posted March 15, 2014 Hopefully Montana playing their third game in three days gets to their legs a bit. UND has to be fresh with how they handled Idaho State. Is Big Sky TV the only option to watch this game? Quote
sioux24/7 Posted March 15, 2014 Posted March 15, 2014 Winner goes to the dance, loser to the WNIT I believe that if we win Southern Utah will actually get the WNIT bid. Quote
SWSiouxMN Posted March 15, 2014 Author Posted March 15, 2014 I believe that if we win Southern Utah will actually get the WNIT bid. I think Montana would still be good enough for an at large. Quote
Wilbur Posted March 15, 2014 Posted March 15, 2014 Getting that nervous feeling that goes with being a fan before big games. Lets getter done ladies! Quote
Wilbur Posted March 15, 2014 Posted March 15, 2014 6-1.....Probably just need to dump the ball in and keep three girls up high. Big enough lead. Quote
Wilbur Posted March 15, 2014 Posted March 15, 2014 10-1. Great great start for the green and white. Quote
SiouxFan100 Posted March 15, 2014 Posted March 15, 2014 Looking good so far. I like our changes if we can keep Montana at 35% from 3 point land Quote
Wilbur Posted March 15, 2014 Posted March 15, 2014 23-18 UND. I don't know anything about basketball, so I'll say that it seems like UND is playing pretty well. Quote
SiouxFan100 Posted March 15, 2014 Posted March 15, 2014 We are giving up some easy baskets. Was hoping for a big early lead and coasting. Not going to happen. Montana is good too. Quote
