We have a real challenge next weekend at North Dakota - BroncoPhilly - 11-26-2017 04:14 PM
They always play us tough. That's a program with talent, pride and a belief in themselves and their coaches. They won't make many mistakes.
We need to come out of there with no worse than a split. A sweep by ND would be hard to carry back to Lawson.

I think losing to Colgate on Saturday may have been the best thing for this team going into UND.... They were getting a little TOO loose... You could tell that they started to look for stats on Saturday instead of the win... own zone defense fell apart. I am sure Andy ripped them a good one after that debacle... Great time for a team trip to go prove yourselves once again.

Yeah, I'll gladly take a split on this weekend.

Well, the narrative about WMU is that they are tough at home, not so much on the road. Time to change that this weekend, starting now.
Fun fact: Western has beaten UND more often AT UND than in Kalamazoo.
Remember we swept them in Grand Forks last year.

We're down 4-2 with 6 minutes to go in the 3rd period. Not an auspicious start.
