    So instead of playing North Dakota State, which had a BYE (in fact, we still do) on Sept. 9th, you're making UND break their contract with Mesa State in order to play you on Sept. 9th. Yeah, I guess that makes sense.

    Hopefully a UND win will give them enough courage to make the transition up to DI and DI-AA football.

      I don't think we made them do anything. They took the game.

          Discuss all things related to Panther football.


          In this thread it says that you guys had an opening on 9/9, but you then filled it with Minnesota. So, do you guys still have an opening? I guess I thought you didn't have a game available still.
          The Lord reigns, let the earth be glad; let the distant shores rejoice, clouds and thick darkness surround Him; righteousness and justice are the foundation of His throne. Fire goes before Him, and consumes his foes on every side; His lightning lights up the world; the earth sees and trembles; the mountains melt like wax before the Lord of all the earth. The heavens proclaim His righteousness and all peoples will see His glory.

            The NDSU website shows the game with Minnesota on Oct 21. Their schedule does have 11 games with that game added.

              Key word there would be "hope"...

                No faith for your former NCC brothers?

                How about in 2003 when NDSU beat Montana at Montana?

                Don't think it could happen to you? Think again.



                We still have an opening at 9/9. I was thinking along the lines that the NCAA would allow I-AA teams to play 12 games a season. But I guess that isn't happening now.

                However, we did have that 9/9 before we scheduled Minnesota on 10/21. You guys were no where to be found.

                  We'll be found in the playoffs. Hope to see you in the UNI-Dome.
                  "This program is the most important thing. It was here before we were here, and it will be here after we leave. Right now, we represent this program and this university. We represent the community, we represent the state, and we will do everything that we can to put UNI football at the level we're proud of and always have been at this university. When I'm talking about this program, I'm talking about alumni. This place is important to them, just as it is to me." - Mark Farley, Football Coach

                    From my understanding of the situation, it was more along the lines of NDSU being nowhere to be found... UNI would have welcomed that game in the DOME with open arms...

                      and how many people in this thread (on either side) has any involvement what-so-ever in the scheduling process?

                      (not I)

                        Actually, Jay, you may be suprised to know that NDSU won't schedule a game unless a majority is reached in a bisonville.com poll.

                          And NDSU would've welcomed a game in the DOME as well.

                            If you're talking the UNI-Dome, then I am very surprised it did not happen; I would assume your Athletic Department had something cooking with Minnesota as an 11th game. If you are talking about your dome, then I'm not surprised we're not playing. Why would a traditional powerhouse, returning from the National Championship game play a game in North Dakota?

                              According to the 2005 results it looks like UND had a pretty good year. Whatever the team it's very difficult to win in the UNI-Dome.

                                NDSU and UNI were in talks about playing each other this year but since both teams wanted home games they didn't really go anywhere. From what our AD said in a Fargo Forum article it sounded like the UNI game would have been scheduled if we couldn't play the Gophers. It would have been a home and home so UNI would have gone to Fargo, just not this year. I guess the $400k was too much to pass up for our AD even though our coach didn't really want to play 2 IA's this year. I was really hoping we would have played you guys this year and was even planning on making the trip down to the UNI Dome. Hopefully we can play you guys sometime in the future, good luck this year and crush the Sioux.
