Dom knows what gets a buzz going in his readership and this is nothing more than a play for some hits on his blog and to rattle the cages of some of the fans who take this topic way too seriously. They'll play again but it's very very unlikely to be in 2013 with the scenario that he cooked up.

I have a gut feeling that NDSU and UND match up in the playoffs before an agreement is actually hashed out between the schools for a regular season matchup. You know that if the two would both be in the playoffs that the NCAA would match them up against each other unless they're both seeded due to the proximity of the two schools and the ticket interest they know it will generate.
