The game is fine to be played but it has to be on our terms and in the dome. Certainly not every year but if it doesn't compromise our scheduling strategy and the no namers want come down south for a beating then let them.
I won't lie, I had fun today!
All week long, I'd turn on the radio hoping to hear about NDSU football only to hear, time and time again, "UND absolutely dominated the series in the '90s," when, if I remember correctly, if UND hadn't won a 13-10 game in 1999, the 1990s would have been tied.
That's a pretty low bar for terming something "domination."
Trivia: Who was President the last time UND won a game against NDSU by 25 or more?

My own unscientific estimation was that the UND crowd could not have been much more than 5% (roughly 1,000 fans of the 19,044) and certainly no more than 10% in even the most generous of estimations.
There were, however, a lot of people in UND gear in the tailgating lots before the game, but obviously, as it turned out, most of those did not have tickets to the actual game itself. It seemed to me that most of the UND fans just wanted to experience a true NDSU tailgate! :)
Gotta go back farther than that. :)Quote:

Based on the sloppy play today Bison will get beat by the bunnies........sad but true. Whatever happened to the NFL prospect Wentz?
