      Of course the only thing Craig and John on 1230 could focus on and be critical of was Aaron's comments.

      "The opportunity to play USD fit the scheduling criteria we have for our women’s basketball team,” said Johnston, whose Jackrabbits have finished in the top 40 of the NCAA rating percentage index (RPI) two of the last three years. “We really needed a home date and we were looking for a single game.”

      They chastised a caller who asked why they focus on the negative. They just don't get this is clearly a bigger deal for USD than SDSU and far from our biggest game of the year. I would not even call it a rivalary at this point especially in Women's Basketball.

        This is a good move for both schools.

        Operative line: "Overall, SDSU leads the series, 37-21, after sweeping the 2003-04 season series by scores of 99-83 and 61-58."
        Got a feeling that gap is going to grow in the immediate future. Now, let the men play.

          No big deal. Let's try not to over comment on this one. I'd be more interested in seeing IUPUI or IPFW. Hopefully they'll draw just as well.

            The game on Feb. 13 is a much bigger deal, Saturday night vs. NDSU.

              This is a big deal and it still is a rivalry. Just because we'll crush the Yotes, it does not mean they not our rivals. I am glad to see AJ reach out to USD. This will be a fun game for the fans and the State of South Dakota.

                You all say you want students at the game. I guarantee that we will be there in full force for this one. No students on this campus were around during the BIG rivalry days, but we have heard plenty of stories and are ready for it.

                  No doubt. It'll be a blow-out though.

                    "Much bigger deal" is a pretty bold prediction. NDSU might be important in the Summitt standings, but this is the revival of an intense in-state rivalry after a six-year hiatus.... I'd wager the crowd and attention will be just as big for the U, if not bigger.

                      Saturday night, conference game, against the new rival NDSU vs. a Monday night game against an over matched non-conference USD. I would take that bet.

                          I forgot at USD you get style points for almost winning on the road! Jacks will be very prepared for this game!

                            If USD gets a fair scheduling deal I will go to the game in Brookings but if USD is going to sell themselves out for a one game only contract I will not be attending that one. If I don't go to the game in Brookings I will make it a priority in 2010 to come to a game in Vermillion that I would not have otherwise attended against another school just for principal's sake. I am not gonna sell out as a fan for a game that will be/was set up based on inequality. USD owes SDSU nothing.

                              Smack is bad, here.

                              Strive to avoid smack.
