Popular Post Siouxperfan7 Posted November 20, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted November 20, 2023 3 hours ago, Dustin said: I actually thought game times were assigned by the NCAA and/or their broadcast partners (ESPN in this case). I had assumed we just got lucky that a previously unscheduled football game did not interfere with an already scheduled hockey game. But if UND got to pick the time, I would assume it was done so fans could easily attend both the football game and the hockey game on Saturday. Also, making a pacific time team play an early game can also be an advantage, like Johnnyboy said. Home team picks the time for the first 2 rounds. All games are on ESPN+ so it really doesn't matter. Especially with 8 games being played on Saturday the first two weekends. There is going to be overlap. Attendance is going to be down for the football game, and hockey too. Playing at noon gives people that may be coming into town for hockey to possibly do both games with a reasonable amount of time between game. It certainly isn;t going to hurt attendance in a predictable low attendance game. But it certainly could help. Also, messing with the Sac St. players internal clock is an added bonus! 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Thanksgiving holiday doesn't help attendance at any of the games this weekend either (hockey and football). I just hope whomever can go will go and give this team the support they deserve. And UND better promote the heck out of this game; no reason not to promote a home playoff game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless you mean to watch on TV. yah.. you are right. Must have been for something else. Hopefully we get a good turnout this weekend!

Doesn't ESPN+ use the Midco crew (camera operators, technical crew, and the announcers)? If so, the game has to start at noon to give Midco enough time to set up at the Ralph for hockey that night.

I think would be all be disappointed with zero playoff wins this season regardless of whether we are a 9-2 seed or squeaking in at 7-4.

He sounded kinda sheepish about it, " ... felt them tugging at the ball ... so I got down ... " Basically admitted to commiting "ball security" over stretching to score or being savvy and thinking 'clock'. I had seats on the goal line and saw a couple of redbirds trying to rip it loose. Click don't mean crap if you lose the ball. Ask the Vikings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He secured the ball late and went down. Thankfully! Everything changes if there is a fumble. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
