When my parents first arrived there, North Dakota had just been admitted to the Union, and the country was still wild and harsh.

We definitely de-winged North Dakota.

North Dakota State. What do you have to do there to graduate? Milk a cow with your left hand?

It's not a novelty for them as much as it is in western North Dakota.

Our single greatest challenge is the ability to move power to markets outside North Dakota.

[North Dakota] and [St.Cloud State] are No. 2 and No. 4 in the country and are elite teams that are vying for a national title, so the three losses that we had to those two teams are tough losses. The No. 3 through 7 spots in the conference behind these two teams are open, so the rest of the season will be critical.
