Money must be coming in on us.

Smart money knows +13.5 for a home dog in a rivalry game was just too much. Lots of dollars coming in on UND to cover that spread.

I only have DraftKings, I rarely gamble....but they don't have that game. I would have put a little money on a 13.5 spread at the Alerus.

98% of the tickets for the game are sold, will be over 12,000. Huge rivalry game but it is also ND home deer opener and winter youth sports starting in full swing. Weird complaints.

Going to be an electric atmosphere. Hopefully it gets rocking early like it did last time the ag college was up here.

Instead of making excuses, why wouldn’t you make every effort to have the best atmosphere possible Saturday?

I already answered this question.  Because the universities are expected to pay everybody, provide every resource possible and basically give away every dollar possible to the programs now.  So they inturn have to gouge their fans/alumni way more than ever before.

Whether those 200 tickets get sold or not really don't matter to UND as they have made their $$$ and they won't make a difference in noise. Just more of a status thing to say it was sold out.

What excuse was made?
As was already stated, with the current environment in college athletics, every source of revenue is being examined and pushed as far as it can before it turns into a negative ROI. Being that close to a sell out a few days before the game tells me they priced it pretty appropriately to maximize revenue for the program.
Not saying I enjoy it as the end user (though if you have season tickets, it doesn't really matter) but I also understand it and appreciate it as the more revenue UND generates, the more there is to help put back into the athletic department. 

I guess they could have sold them for $20 and then there would be a huge secondary market for tickets but hey, I guess they would have 200 more people in the building?
If you want to make the argument that the tops of the far corners should have been a little bit less, they may have sold sooner and it would have been a minimal drop in revenue, I'd agree with that stance 100%. But I think they are going to get pretty close to that regardless.

I approve this message

....and maybe there are 200ish tickets left because UND s#!t the bed last week and casual walk up UND fans aren't paying $87 for high row end zone seats to potentially see a repeat of last week. Lots of potential reasons for not being a sellout yet.

That’s very true as well. 

[UND1983]

This is simply a game on the schedule.  Nothing more, nothing less.  They can ask more because it's NDSU, but there are still two more games after this with one being at home - both of those games are as important as this one for playoff seeding. No reason to make it more than it is - UND fans/team did that two years ago and the team completely sh*t the bed after the win cause they handled it wrong.  

 

[Sioux94]

It was definitely the right call to increase the single game NDSU tickets so that UND got the money instead of other people buying them cheap and selling and profiting. I agree the corner ones probably should be a little less as those aren't good seats, but sounds like they are almost sold out. It was their first time raising them that much for the SU game. Maybe they will adjust the corners a little bit in two years. But it doesn't seem they are that far off from getting it right, and at least they tried.  Plus Im sure hoping in two years we are an even better team than we are now and even more excitement around the football program.

Why would someone down vote this?

[Sioux95]

If you want to feel good about UND's chances in this game, look no further than NDSU's last game against Youngstown State. In the second quarter they got a touchdown with possession starting on Youngstown states 20 yd line, another touchdown starting on Youngstown states 7 yd line after a muffed kickoff return, and later they had a 100 yd kick off return for a touchdown.  If we can make them earn their scores, which we've been pretty good at all year, this game should be very competitive.
