I think I was pretty clear in my last post that while UND may be nationally recognized in hockey, hockey is not as nationally recognized as football. Would their be fans that say that crap? Sure, like I said, all fan bases have idiots.
I really would have liked to see NDSU get a hockey team, because I think there is a lot of potential for rivalry games there AND as Penn St. showed the past few years, it doesnt take long to get competitive.
Gotta realize that not ever post from a UND fan is an attack on your school. Really not here for the bantor, just like to talk sport, especially during game week.
This^^^^. They can shove those pucks up their ass. Sioux suck shit. Always have. Always will.Quote:

Nice mtg you yesterday and I agree. Not gonna responsf to UND posts any longer. Fake-ass at best. And just classic-->we can't otherwise compete, so please get hockey ... a sport that about 30 effing schools in the world play. Nah!! We are fine.Quote:

Will NDSU establish the run game, or will UND's run defense play strong? We've looked good so far, but this will be a great measuring stick. Wyoming was supposed to be a strong running team, and they ran well this weekend, but definitely terrible against UND. Then again, our run D looked good again this week, but in a terrible game against Drake. Regardless, Frazier and Morlock are both very solid, not to mention Wentz's ability even if he isn't 100%
Will NDSU smoke us through the air? Even without throwing deep, NDSU looked great this weekend through the air. The short pass to Morlock that turned into a long TD was a great play, and with tremendous effort. Drake exposed us WAY more than they should have this weekend, and that alone has me nervous for next weekend, after we had a nice showing against Wyoming.
Will UND be able to expose the Bison defense? In watching the game vs MT, I was not surprise to see the Bison put up so many point, though I definitely was surpised to see MT score so many points, especially with so many long passes. That being said, I know the Bison lost a lot of starters, and there is some catching up to do with the young guys. Will UND be able to take advantage, or will the Bison make all of the right adjustments.
Will special teams play a big factor in the game?
Will there be many turnovers, and how much will that impact the game? Good lord I hope UND cleans up their offense this week. I think we put the ball on the ground 7 times this week (one which cost us a touchdown). 7!!! If that happens this week it will be a very fun afternoon for most of you. On the other side of the ball, we have missed 3 or 4 easy interceptions this year. Gotta take advantage of that.
All in all, I certainly don't expect us to win, based on where both of these teams are right now; but stranger things have happened. So I'm certainly hopeful. After our game against Drake, I think fans are way more nervous than they were. Then again, maybe it is a good thing that happened when it did. Our team is definitely not going to come in too high on themselves for a win over a low caliber FBS team; can't come in feeling good about much from the Drake game.
Never said that, and certainly don't expect you guys to get hockey, I think we are all aware of the success you guys have had in football, and basketball too. Just think it would be a fun game on the schedule. Doesn't matter, it won't happen.
Be fair, it's 59. Although about 30 of them are actually DIQuote:
