That 3rd weekend of November is going to be SWEET!!! Friday night our men's basketball team plays the Gophers at Williams Arena, then the following day our football team travels to Southern Illinois to play the Salukis!!

And meanwhile, the sue fans cry in their beers...

[tophatfan]

But they have D1 hockey and play the Gophers every year

I might as well put that line out before one of them can say it.

To truly be DI you need to have all sports at the D1 level

Great news - I was at Williams arena last year for a gopher game and the venue is great!!

Congratulations on scheduling the Gophers! Yes, UND has been competing against the U of M for decades, they have a great rivalry with us. BTW, the Sioux women played the gophers in basketball last season as well. Welcome to the "big-time" NDSU!

Yes, except but that women's game last year was an exhibition game.

[mikelsch]

Bin City wouldn't know about the exhibition part, because they only follow their DI sport.

Yes, except but that women's game last year was an exhibition game.

So are the hockey games for that matter!

Looks like a pretty good schedule for the Jacks. I'm sure you guys miss the great rivalries in division II . These schedules show how much better division I schedules will be.
