UND @ UAA, Oct 23-24

Re: UND @ UAA, Oct 23-24

I'm sure it would be the same as any other home game since it's on FSSN.

WRONG!

It will not be webcasted through fightingsioux.com. Webcasts are only done when FSSN broadcasts games, and we are just picking up the UAA feed. UAA will have a webcast though through their site I believe.
 
Re: UND @ UAA, Oct 23-24

I'd really like to hear the U-A-A song again...:D

Bet this plays every day after the 5 pm farm report

t's For You, North Dakota U

It's for you North Dakota U
That we sing, your sons and daughters true;
Cheering our comrades to Victory
Renewing allegiance to UND

Your honor we uphold in every contest,
As your children aye shall do;
And whenever you hear the cry of Odz! Odz! Dzi!
It's for you, North Dakota U. It's for U.

SORRY!

didn't know how it was working. but nonetheless, I'm sure there's some sort of webcast of it somewhere.
 
Re: UND @ UAA, Oct 23-24

Boy, this thread is quiet compared to last week.... does anyone know if there is a webcast of this series? I'm out of town this weekend and would like to still catch the games.....
Sioux sweep
Actually reading the thread works wonders :p
I don't know if the GCI webcasts are free this year like they were last year. The site does not say, you can read it for yourself here:

Robert Morris had 10 powerplays Saturday. Did Robert Morris have too much speed for UAA? Seems UAA will literally have their hands full next weekend?:p

Speed wasn't an issue there, we actually had a shorthand goal due to our speed! 3 upperclassment D-men were out and will be this weekend too. One of our freshman blueliners would rather sit in the penalty box than actually skate, so that leaves us with what 3 regular d-men? Leinweiber and Darwitz are all of 5'8" and 160 lbs so that about says it for us. I don't expect the games to be close at all this weekend. NoDak could be like sharks in a feeding frenzy if we aren't careful. I am guessing (sadly and regretfully) a couple of 5-2 Sioux wins this weekend. I am hoping that I am wrong.

Actually Lee Baldwin is 6-4 205, but yes he spends way too much time in the box (who hasn't so far?)

Yeah we've taken far too many penalties this year and it's killing us. Between that and missing our top 3 d-men I don't think we got a chance.

I don't really consider Vidmar one of the top 3, I would much rather see Leinweber play defense than Vidmar.
 
Re: UND @ UAA, Oct 23-24

You are a glutton for punishment, aren't you? Does it help to know that we UAA fans hate it as well? Probably not, you'll keep rubbing salt in the wound.

If the fans hate it why do they play it?
 
Re: UND @ UAA, Oct 23-24

Do they play it? Not like in grand Forks where all you hear all day long is the Flickertail Fight song. The church bell dings it out at noon. Every “hip dude “in town has it programmed into his programmable car horn that he has hotwired to his “take to town tractor”. It is so appalling and been out of fashion for so long that I bet even Lawrence Welk refused to take part in it on his accordion or have his Polka band pound it out with bubbles hovering over the Dak Rat square dancers . I heard a rumor that it’s the only hillbilly tune that didn’t make Bobby Burgess smile and he refused to dance to it. Also heard that even the Lennon sisters balked at singing it and mom backed them up. One of a couple songs banned in Branson Missouri. Even Big Tiny Little had a clause in his contract… It ain’t happening boss. :D

Seawolves...... take the weekend the Dak Rats ....freefall in the polls
 
Re: UND @ UAA, Oct 23-24

IMO, this is UAA best team in years in fact I wouldn't be suprised if they split this series with UND. Going into this season I have found UAA to be faster and physically stronger than years past. They need to be more consistent in order to secure a top five playoff spot. Surely they will be in the mix until the end of the season.

I don't see UAA finishing in the top five ahead of DU, UND, UMN, Wisc, SCSU and or UMD. Sure there is a good chance that UAA and UND will split this weekend, but when it's all said and done the Seawolves will be about 8-10 in the WCHA standing.

This is the same UAA team that lost to Robert Morris and was blown away by Michigan, I watched the game o n GCI it wasn't even close. I think the Travel factor will play in UAA favor. The Sioux have a 6-3-1 record against Seawolves the last 10 games.
