    Re: NDSU looks at possible football game at Target Field

    This seems like something more for a 12-game season.

    For one thing, that way NDSU still gets 6 home games. For another, whoever NDSU is bringing in (say a CAA team) - they can still get their 6...

    Re: NDSU looks at possible football game at Target Field

    Call it an experiment then. If it's unsuccessful, NDSU might lose a small amount of money and won't do it again. If getting Bison games on Twin City stations is not one your goals for NDSU, then what...
