Bison versus Butler at Target Field, 2019

No idea what type of arrangement they had. But the next UND home game against NDSU will be a conference game.

Bison will only get some leftover popcorn and an ass kicking.

Well we love kicking UND's ass but there's still time for UND/El Forko to burn to the ground before we have to travel to that dump so I'm holding out hope for a venue change.

How about a neutral field game with Montana in Denver. Skip the east coast people and play Montana who appears to be back in the mix in the FCS world.

Why not just another home and home with them instead?

Couple things on this game...

1) I wonder if having a game/event like this in August detracts from the interest in Frisco? As in Bison game reunions amongst friends happened in August in Minneapolis instead of in January in Frisco.

2) Does anyone know the dollar amount NDSU got from the Twins on this game? Initially it was reported that they would max out at $600k with a complete sellout (which it didn't get to) but I heard rumblings that the number was likely going to top that. I haven't heard anything official on it.

Wish we would get an agreement with UNI to have all of our home games in Minneapolis every year. Either target field or USBank! Imagine how many alumni both schools have in the Minneapolis/St Paul area!

I’ll bet we could get 40k every year or a good 2x what either home game attendance would have been had we played at UNI or Fargo! Would be a win win for both teams.

#2 - We talked about this the day of the game, but never heard the final answer.
