The Dakotas also have the Midco Sports Network which televises a lot of games.

I yearn for the day when we are so good that creating a thread here for the upcoming game is almost an afterthought and the local media chatter about the game is all about how much of the game the starters will play.
Embrace the pace of the race.

As a lifelong Cubs fan, I'm very familiar with that saying.

Well, we've put up more points that I thought we'd do. Some promising looking things at times.
NDSU's freshman RB is really fast (NDSU fans were saying that this week, that they'd hoped to see him in this game). True freshman this year, so he gets 4 games as a "redshirt".

I hope Turk is ok. Sounds like a pretty nasty injury to his leg.

ndsu could beat most teams in the MVFC without ever running a pass play. Today, they worked on fine tuning their passing game because they will need it in the playoffs.
Embrace the pace of the race.
