Dom and Kolpack have UND at Idaho with winner going to Bozeman. Or does having a knife wielding killer on the loose in Moscow play into Idaho hosting??

They also have Montana out.......I guess I'm the one man wolf pack that doesn't see Montana being excluded.

Last time we lost out to a school that used tents for locker rooms so you do the math on your question.

so we "could" host idaho.........if we outbid em?

[ND1]

UND was aggressive in the bids.  Last I heard UND was only worried about bidding against Idaho and Montana for the first round game. 

[SIOUXFAN97]

iwu is only slightly farther away than idaho....idaho v uc davis makes more sense and a trip straight south for us in the central zone against icarnate word....or if we win the bid...we can host the cardinals?

[SIOUXFAN97]

if we have to outbid idaho

kibbie dome 16k

alerus 13k

gf-50k plus

moscow-25k plus

gf-zero serial killers at large

moscow-1 or more serial killers at large

should be easy to host the vandals imo

Not sure if there played each other this year since they don't end up playing all conference teams, but sounds like they pretty much won't pair two teams in the first round that have already played each other. Either way I'm sure it will be our luck to be matched up with the highest bidder.

Third highest bid out of 16 first round teams last time. They also changed the rules on hosting after the tent city embarrassment. 

[UND-FB-FAN]

UND and Chaves need to be aggressive with the bids. There was outcry in 2019, and we all know how important home field advantage is for UND (and really all teams). 

[sioux24/7]

If we lose a bid to stinkin Idaho, come on.

For all we know the NCAA may consider that “diversity” and award it points,

More likely, Idaho was allowed to pull their FCS playoff bids.

Idaho and Davis did play. Idaho did not play Montana State so pretty sure they will be pigtailed to play in Bozeman and we will likely be the opponent. If our Athletic Department doesn't step on their d!cks again the game better be in GF.

The Southland Conference boosted all the bids for their conference teams.

[The Sicatoka]

After a 38-31 loss at Weber UND is ...

Up one to 14 in Massey

UND at 16 in Sagarin

Important to start in the polls for next season. Drake and NAU to start before a bye week.
Then a bit of a tough stretch with Boise State, SDSU, WIU, NDSU and UNI.
4-3 minimum heading into the home stretch. 5-2 or better would be very nice.
