This is getting the cart before the horse. But if NDSU and UND both win this weekend, where would the semi-final game between them be played?
Neither team is seeded and, as I understand it, there is no bidding process for home playoff sites this year. Would site selection be based on regular-season results? If so, who does that favor? UND has a better winning percentage and fewer losses, but NDSU has more wins and beat UND rather handily head to head. The polls are split: NDSU is ahead in the STATS poll (6 vs 7), while UND is ahead in the coach's poll (again 6 to 7). Attendance would seem to favor the FargoDome over Alerus.
