Seems odd that we haven't heard any updates about this game for a very long time.  I wonder what the hold up is. 

Penn State being scared that they won’t be playing their yearly batch of cupcakes.

Seriously? Is this confirmed somewhere?

No. They are waiting for some paperwork to be signed so the contracts between the teams can be finalized.

Just to be clear, you're saying No Dak v Penn St, correct?

I'm guessing they are working out stuff like what percentage of seats Penn St. gets.  I have this hunch Penn St. likely wants more than UND is giving them.

If that’s the case, and as college hockey goes, Penn St. would to have some guts to make a request like that.

Bridgestone Arena has a seating capacity of 17,113 for hockey. I'd doubt that seating will be an issue.

Exactly, there were no shortage of seats at MSG. A lot of Sioux fans travelled but we're talking an NHL arena here.

Penn State probably wants a cut or B1Gger cut that UND is going to get.

Hard to believe a P1G team would have that attitude.;)

Delays have nothing to do with Penn State. Waiting on some signatures from the facility so the contract can be finalized with PSU.

UND/REA owns the rights to the game, so there isn't a concern about UND not playing in it.

Does the contract to be finalized include 52% of anything Penn St. FB related?

Agreed.  I think if you are a fan of either school and you want to go to this game, you are going to get tickets.  That being said, I think the demand is going to be high due to fans missing out on the Vegas game.  I could see 12,000+ UND fans at this game.

Chicago is like every other major city in North America - if you stay in the right part of town, you're likely to be just fine.

For example, Las Vegas has a higher rate of violent crime than Chicago, but I didn't hear of any incidents affecting UND fans.

Exactly.  My guess is you're likely in more danger odds-wise while driving approx 700 miles to/fro GF - Chicago than you are actually being in Chicago assuming one uses common sense when/where you're in the Windy City.

Count me in!  I heard from a pretty reliable source linked with REA that the deal (UND vs Penn St in Nashville) is all but signed so surely gotta be something coming out soon on it.
