U MN vs. UND: The Rumble in the Desert

Re: U MN vs. UND: The Rumble in the Desert

I could see how that would terrorize UND, after all, a Gopher home game is usually a f'hawk ***-whooping.

I think icehawk was referring to this instead when he mentioned brilliant. Whioux fans are a bit slow on the take so all is forgiven.

UND should win decisively unless they play down to the level of the competition.

Have you seen this year’s version of each team? The only way UND has a snowball’s chance in hell is if they overachieve and the Gophers underachieve. Unless both of those things happen I promise you the Gophers will win.

Cool story! If you hadn’t realized, I simply copy/pasted the same words of a post you made with a minimal edit.

It’s funny how often you make statements like this and it backfires. I guess you wouldn’t know cause you like to disappear when results don’t go your way.

Of course I realized, but what I said made sense because this year's Notre Dame team is vastly superior to this year's Duluth team. What you said is nonsensical because this year's Gopher team is vastly superior to this year's North Dakota team. I'd like to say nice try but it wasn't even that, it was a massive swing and a miss. You really should be embarrassed.

Ok got it, you don’t understand sarcasm emotes. If anything, I have pity for you. The way you obsess about the NCHC and it’s teams is unhealthy. You shouldn’t have to disappear to avoid taking ownership for being an ***.

Can't we all get along? After we beat you, of course. Although, the chances of a brouhaha in the handshake line goes up about 700% when UND lose. Are you guys bringing Rhett along, he should be good for at least one 5 minute penalty.

If that was supposed to be sarcasm it was a pitiful attempt. As for your misconception that I "obsess" about the NCHC, my true intent obviously sailed way over your head. The fact of the matter is that I am simply retaliating against the numerous NCHC fans who obsess over the Big Ten ad nauseam. If you don't comprehend how that works, then I am sorry but I can't help you.

Yep, I swear their attitude is "If we can't beat them, let's beat them up".

Re: U MN vs. UND: The Rumble in the Desert

I think this game will be close. Guessing (minus any ENGs) it will will be a 4-3, 5-4 type of game. Being the homer I am, of course I'll say MN.

Despite what some say, these teams still hate each other. The rivalry is not dead yet.

Ya the people that act like the games aren't the most intense on the schedule still are just in denial.

I can't for the life of me figure out what's wrong with a little fisticuffs in the handshake line. All throughout nature young creatures tussle with their siblings as a means to prepare them to survive in a hostile world. I would think young gophers and other vermin would value this, as most of them will be snatched away by Hawks before they reach old rat-age.

btw: As I recall, by tradition on these series threads we're supposed to start talking hockey sometime on Thursday. When is that supposed to start? This does not apply to Happy, of course, who has a lifetime tree and 25-year-old Canadians pass.

Hard for me to get too fired up for a game I can't watch.

You're not alone: most gopher fans will find this one hard to watch.

Re: U MN vs. UND: The Rumble in the Desert

Ah we played ranked opponents and you played Culinary institutes so lets not quite compare how the season is going.

Re: U MN vs. UND: The Rumble in the Desert

No, I think UND just felt that if they scheduled the game for a larger arena and it was only 60% filled it would feel too much like a home game for the gophers.

Winner!
