NDSU vs Sundogs

[Bisonville GasMan]

Where would we even host gameday? Downtown Grand Forks? A windy parking lot off I-29? It would such a terrible experience!! Would love the national exposure, but it would be terrible! Fargo has done a great job with gameday the past 2 years.

You're damn right we have...

In the Olive Garden parking lot with that old lady who reviews restaurants as the guest picker.

Why doesn't some reporter like Dom or Jeff do a story about why we quit playing each other. Hint: start by getting Roger Thomas to go on the record.

This is hilarious! Seriously had me laughin out loud at work.

8. Use ESPN exposure to recruit better hockey players.
9. Wait for hockey to start do you can ignore the other sports prigrams.

Schlossman put out an article in July. Pretty fair on the issue. It was certainly UND who stopped the rivalry, and the truth was that whether NDSU wanted to stick it to UND or not; the Bison had already established themselves (without the help of UND filling schedules early on), NDSU didn't need to put UND on their schedule. UND may be pushing for the rivlary now, but our school can only blame ourselves for ever stopping it in the first place (Not to mention being dumb enough to not transition to D1 at the same time as NDSU).

I'm glad it is back, this year, but alot would have to change for this to ever be a annual game; starting with UND improving the program.

Since the schools left the North Central Conference and NCAA Division II to move up to Division I -- NDSU first in 2004 and UND four years later -- both schools have taken turns dangling carrots in front of each other, taunting each other and thinking they are one-upping their biggest rival when they were only hurting themselves.

First, it was UND’s turn.

After then-UND President Charles Kupchella didn’t have the foresight to go to Division I along with NDSU, the UND athletic department opted against scheduling the Bison in all sports.

UND said playing the Bison in football could have hurt its chances to make the Division II playoffs and host a game. While that part was true, the fact that UND wouldn’t schedule the Bison in any other sport signaled a different story: UND wanted to stick it to its rival, which was having trouble filling out quality schedules as an independent in Division I.

Once UND reached Division I, North Dakota State did the same to UND, refusing to schedule its rival out of spite.

Honestly if we wanted a good chant, forget anything Sioux related, just "Sun-dogs, sun-dogs" would be much funnier....
