What time do I need to show up at the gates with a few hundred free "Fighting Sundogs" tee-shirts?

How much of that vaunted run defense had to do with Wyo and Drake playing catch up and forcing them to throw?
Fair enough, I'm sure you get plenty of it, but I'm certainly not looking for the banter crap. I responded to a Bison fan over hockey talk, then was criticized for bringing up hockey. Regardless, I don't think there is anything wrong with talking to opposing fans. Come on over to SS. If you're respectful and a UND poster isn't, I'll defend you to the end, I hate the senseless arguments. There is enough to argue about with sport, that it doesn't need to become personal/petty crap.
They are setting up a couple of changing booths to let fans turn their apparel inside out. This is also the game where dome security is implementing the text-a-tip program. They are hoping fellow fans will alert them. There will be all sorts of announcements along the lines of in light of good sportsmanship, blah...blah...blah. Fans will just text when they see something.

Exactly what I am wondering. I was impressed with it in the WYO game, because they had pretty strong RBs, and they weren't that far behind. Drake game doesn't say much to much, for or against us. I really think Frazier and Morlock will show us where we stand. Difference is, NDSU is the first team we are facing who has a strong passing game too. Very interested to see if our D can take the challenge or if it has all been smoke and mirrors.
During the game she sent a test message and a DN came right up to our seats and delivered the free drink coupon. BTW we are way past J! I was kinda impressed with how prompt they were!!!
I bet the Dome sees how this works for the Sioux shit show and then it becomes a factor for serving beer.
Personally I have other concerns other than what someone is wearing. I wouldn't bother. Before many in the dome text a tip about Whioux apparel they would have to know about the zero tolerance policy and then care enough to do it. I don't know why we have to bring the Whioux nickname battle unto NDSU's shoulders, it's not our problem it's theirs.
Righ5, well I registered cuz we haven't played in years and wanted to talk football, which some of your fans have been cool with. Others just seem to want to argue about crap. Funny thin is there are plenty of UND folks who despise NDSU, I've never been one. Wasn't around from more than 1 game of the rivalry as a freshman, which was a blast. Then my in laws are huge bison fans, so I'll tailgate with them and their friends when I'm in Fargo. Always have a great time with great people. Don't have to take me seriously, but I'm really not on hear for the senseless arguments.
Bison D Def looked better this week. Was MT just that much better than Weber, or did your D make a lot of adjustments this week?

I'm literally thinking the game is going to be about the 5th most entertaining thing about next weekend.
I predict a half time show that makes me cringe at least once, a big Bison victory and a lot of whining.
I'm just going to watch, I won't engage. I had 3 people individually try to pick fights with me on my way out of the Alerus in 2003. Fuck them. I hope they have a shitty time.
I am with you, I never wanted this game.
I think we make a bigger statement by "ignoring" it, not that the SSS chant is exactly ignoring it. I can guarantee you the forever Whioux fans will be licking their chops over this "fight", which will drag out this stupid "game" talk into the following week because we have a bye week the following week giving Fargo media an extra week on this crap.
Not intended to be smack. However, if this is actually true, it's embarrassing. Seems like a stunt comparable to throwing dead animals onto playing surfaces of our D2 days, not of a highly successful program with FBS aspirations. Has any other school, in any other sport, forced UND followers to turn their apparel inside out? Why start now? Yes, their mascot situation is a mess but why are you trying to get pulled in and get involved? Just let them wear their damn clothes, beat them by 40+ and move on.
Has to be a joke right:confused::confused::confused::confused::conf used:
Could the dome authority be talking about the NDSU t shirts that say Sioux Suck. Those are funny, but I can see how they could be taken as offensive.
IMO this kinda sucks, we happen to share tickets with a another couple... we have a 2nd pair ticks right behind the goal line and we trade seats at the half. Anyway, I was gonna wear a Siouxper drunk fest shirt ...You know the one that went viral and brought national shame on UND. Was hoping to get it on TV...this sucks.
Word is anything offensive to the real Sioux Tribes. So yes. SIOUX SUCKS is out. I think if it were just to say Sioux you are fine. Hopefully our resident domenazi chimes in. BTW I think they did inform the school up north, as I heard they were chatting about it on their boards.
Granted it is very early in the week but it's interesting to look at the rwo newspapers. El Heraldo has already run two stories on the "Dakota Bowl" and the big rivalry. The Foolum? The only mention so far is the comments from the post game blog where Kolpack basically says "Meh, this will be interesting but UNI is probably our real rival."
If UND plays like they did in the 2nd half of the Drake game this will be a 30-40 point blowout!
But I think the UND defense will come to play and make it respectable. I don't think the UND offense has the talent to consistently score on the Bison defense. One thing the Bison defense needs is a good pass rush. They cannot let their QB sit back and throw the ball around.
From reading UNDies, my understanding that UND does two things fairly well; run the ball and play solid D. Well, quality of D will not matter against NDSU offense if NDSU does not get overly cute, and NDSU D if fine when it comes to run defense. (Looking forward to their RB meeting Mr. DeLuca a few times....)
Well you who say it is just another game are DISRESPECTING those that grew up with the game. Well that is at least what Joel and Jack just said on the Heitkamps show. Time to turn the radio off for a week.
This whole talk is sickening- there will be shirts there will be sioux sucks chants- there will be in-your-face fans and players on the field. Its Monday and I'm already sick of the politically correct whining. The pussification of america has made it to the red river valley. If someone's feeling are hurt by a shirt or a chant than go get a hug from your mommy- maybe she cares- because the overwhelming majority have zero fucks to give.
SIOUX SUCK. ( off to sensitivity training)
