Re: UW @ UND... The DOTA travels West

I'm already firing up the microwave. This thread is going to be a joy to watch...

You shouldn't run a microwave without putting something in it first. That's bad for it.
Might I suggest a BADger or two?

So long as you keep Joe Finely away from our Mascot, we should be fine.

Ah, that darn mascot got what he deserved.
An apology letter.

Re: UW @ UND... The DOTA travels West

I am most impressed with them hanging 7 on MSU, who look to be pretty good again this year. UNH is only one game above .500 so far this year, but are turning it around as of late.

Outside of that, our common opponents:

UW split with UMN. UND got 3 points.
UW swept UAA. UND split.
Both UW and UND split with SCSU.
Both UW and UND swept MTU.

Agreed, this should be a good, close series.

A logical, unemotional posting? Nice job.

My concern is that UW just crushed an awful Tech team and the sue played in some tight high speed/high intensity games with UMD. Hopefully UW will be able to ramp up their play Friday and get back to the pace of someone like the sue.

And can Minnesota ramp up their play to keep pace with Tech after they played Wisconsin?

I doubt it.

Re: UW @ UND... The DOTA travels West

Wisco scoring goals has me concerned. They are always a defense 1st, 2nd and 3rd. kinda team. If they can score a few goals that is like a bonus for them. This year they are lighting it up!

It's going to be intense at the Ralph this weekend.

I can't wait. I'm still hoping a local station picks up the FSSN broadcast. I'm going:

5-1 UW on Friday, Sioux bounce back and win 3-2 Saturday. Also a number of fighting majors

By close he meant the Sioux crush the popcorn boxes.

Sioux Sweep. Win by at least six goals both nights.

Re: UW @ UND... The DOTA travels West

This stats breakdown shows how close these two teams actually are. Its hard to believe UND is ranked #3 while wisconsin is at 11, by looking at the numbers they should be right by each other in the polls. I know polls don't matter but its interesting that these teams are pretty much the same through 16 gms and have played a pretty similar schedule and UND is #3 and UW is #11 I think UND is a little overrated at this point and Wisconsin is a little underrated, but i'm ok with that. This should be a great series...

There will be no TV for wisconsin fans this weekend. Pathetic isn't it. And as of right now, no tv for the Showdown either... no excuse for it but it is what it is when you ahve Mr Alvarez running the show.

I'm sure they will have some spirited practices this week, anyone know if we get Murray back this week?? although we seemed to do ok without him anyway

Actually:
the NHL Network has the game on Friday night @7:30. I know DISH & DirecTv have the NHL Network, but I'm not sure about Charter Cable (horrible company) or the new AT&T U-verse.

IIRC, the UND TV guys are pretty good. It better be in HD, or hasn't that reached that part of the country yet?

That rodenator thingy looks pretty sweet. Eliminates gophers and badgers. It's almost too good to be true.

Charter is run by the minions of Satan, so I'm not hopeful. On the other hand, I know of a website that streams NHL net illegally 24/7, not sure if it's within the rules to post it here.

Charter does carry the NHL Network, its part of the new extended sports package which costs an extra 5.00 a month. Glad to hear they picked it up for friday, they did the same last year as well.

Yeah, I didn't proof read the website and one of my Badger posters brought the Badger thing to my attention. It's still pretty cool, though! My brother lives in Northern WI and has a small chipmunk problem. I might split the cost with him............
