This is a great draw for UND as they have 2 home and homes with Montana, Montana State and Northern Colorado, which are geographically the closest teams. From a fan perspective, those 3 teams also will generate a ton of interest. The light at the end of the transition tunnel is getting much closer.
What are all your thoughts on the home schedule? Does this make you excited for the future of Sioux Football and will prompt you to go get season tickets now if you didn’t already have them? Let’s get some reader discussion and comments going on this. We’ll get back with more thoughts after we dissect the schedule a little more.
