jdub27 Posted March 25, 2014 Posted March 25, 2014 I will be in Vegas during the regionals. If you were in Vegas for the regionals where would you want to watch the games?? Since it is on ESPNU and there shouldn't be a lot of other sporting events going on Friday night, I would just go up to one of the managers at a sports book and ask if they can put the game on a TV or two for you. I've had good luck doing it in the past. Might want to do it a little ahead of time just to make sure you can find somewhere that will do it, but most places are happy to help as long as there isn't something that has heavy betting going on. Also Torrey Pines Pub (6374 West Lake Mead, Las Vegas, NV 89108) is listed as the "official" watch party place during the season, though it appears to be about a 10-20 minute drive from the strip. Oddly enough, they also host Montana football game watch parties. Quote
hrkac Posted March 25, 2014 Posted March 25, 2014 I will be in Vegas during the regionals. If you were in Vegas for the regionals where would you want to watch the games?? i watched games at the revamped sport book at Luxor a year ago. it's smaller so you're closer to the tv screens with nice chairs. Ceasars is classic too. Quote

geaux_sioux Posted March 25, 2014 Posted March 25, 2014 Yeah. What a sweet sound. That would make a good ringtone for texts. Quote
fightingsioux4life Posted March 25, 2014 Posted March 25, 2014 Lots of great memories against the Badgers. One of my favorite all time UND-Bucky games happened at the Final Five a few years back. Wisconsin had dominated UND that year at the Ralph, and they went on to win the national championship when it was all said and done. Bucky went ahead quickly 2-0 in the first period and everyone was talking about who UND was going to play in the third place game. UND got two late first period goals and got two in the second and completely in the head of one Robert Earl, who was flagged for unsportsmanlike diving that game. UND won 4-3, won the final five the next night. But tremendous win for UND that day. I believe that was 2006, the same year St. Cloud and Minnesota had their epic semifinal game; 8-7 St. Cloud in OT. Then we beat a tired St. Cloud team for the title on Saturday night. Quote
UND-1 Posted March 26, 2014 Posted March 26, 2014 Interesting note about the game: UND is favored on 5dimes. UND is -125 and WI is -115. Not a huge difference, pretty much a pick'em, but thought that was surprising. Colgate and Ferris State are a pick'em. Quote

George M. Bluth Posted March 26, 2014 Posted March 26, 2014 http://badgerofhonor...ng-sioux-cincy/ That picture on the site has the time of the game as 3:30 CT. That's wrong, right? The game is at 7:00 I thought. Quote

shortbusguy Posted March 26, 2014 Posted March 26, 2014 Sounds like the team had a fun trip from the airport to the hotel! Quote
farce poobah Posted March 27, 2014 Posted March 27, 2014 UND has never lost to the Badgers in the NCAA tournament. The streak will not end this weekend. To the Badgers, I say "you shall not pass." The first meeting in 1982 - for a trophy - was glorious ... Phil Sykes was Mr Clutch yet again. The second meeting in 2008 was almost as good. Made more surprising at the time because the first 100 minutes of that weekend (vs Princeton and then Wisconsin) we looked listless. But an epic comeback and the OT made that another unforgettable matchup. Whatever happens, I predict this one will be epic. 1 Quote

keikla Posted March 27, 2014 Posted March 27, 2014 Bus died, waited for a bunch of cabs. Per Jayson's twitter, they got lost twice on the way from the airport to the hotel. Then, the bus got stuck on the pavement (some sort of ledge...maybe someone can put up the picture from twitter), and they had to get a bunch of cabs for the remainder. #4thseedproblems Quote
burd Posted March 27, 2014 Posted March 27, 2014 UND has never lost to the Badgers in the NCAA tournament. Interesting fact. Didn't they play each other from '80 to '84? Quote

Go Sioux, can't wait for the game! Quote
808287 Posted March 27, 2014 Posted March 27, 2014 Interesting fact. Didn't they play each other from '80 to '84? They beat the Badgers in the '82 National Championship game. That was their only Tournament meeting until 2008, in Madison. Quote

siouxweet Posted March 27, 2014 Posted March 27, 2014 Bus died, waited for a bunch of cabs. and don't forget the bus headed the wrong way from the airport. Quote
