gfhockey Posted September 29, 2022 Posted September 29, 2022 Not much hype here for homecoming week Quote

USD has D-Days for homecoming and let me tell you, that’s a time. SDSU has Hobodays, never been for that. Quote
Kab Posted September 29, 2022 Posted September 29, 2022 Are you suggesting we are missing out on some marketing ideas for homecoming Quote

UND will have to earn back the masses on Saturday with a big time performance. The diehards posting on this forum don’t count … we’re talking about getting the laypersons around Grand Forks excited and interested about UND football again. 1 1 Quote

shep Posted September 29, 2022 Author Posted September 29, 2022 I’m in a row with 6 guys. 3 are gone for beet harvest. It may get too warm to dig, but not before the game. Quote

I know some that first year though Potato Bowl was homecoming as that week was always a lot more events and build up talk than any other. 1 Quote

SIU could easily win the Valley title so I would reconsider throwing shade. UIW has a pretty good team this year too….. Quote
