    Hawks are one of the most aggressive animals on the planet. I will never forget the one in my backyard taking out a pigeon...feathers went flying everywhere! Still, I would have loved to see UND become the Fighting Flickertails.

      Interesting.

      It's also true that hawks are a prominent part of the prairie landscape.

        I believe nothing so elaborate as this...some clever people at UND figured HAWKS was a great abbreviation for How About We Keep Sioux 🤔

          Sioux up 1-0 after 1. They controlled most the play the first 20.

                  Sorry ND I have to root against you only because if Ohio State advances I don't want our guys playing to an arena full of your fans. We'd do best playing to an empty arena like we're used to! LOL!!

                    BU looks so tired & slow, I don't know how they've extended this game.
                    But that one shot of Boston's that was swatted out of the air & off the post must have made every North Dakota fan there pee themselves!

                        That was a pretty epic game to open the tourney.

                          Captain Obvious here but tough game for anyone to lose, especially when you almost totally dominate the 3rd period and 1 1/2 overtimes.

                              The winner of the next game could benefit from the OT's unless they go to OT as well.

                                In theory. I can't forget the superhuman effort of PSU in back to back double overtime wins. But BU did look gassed.

                                I think many Gopher fans are conflicted. Many of us are B1G fans. But UMD is in the U of Minnesota system. I would probably root for OSU over just about any team without the word Minnesota in its name.
                                Go Gophers!
