Would love to see Moorhead win this. Stillwater looks so good though. Conway looks like a brick wall in the net.

I had these two teams in the final of my bracket and sticking to my Stillwater pick. However, I would shed no tear if the Spuds championship curse ends tonight. The one program more deserving of a title than anyone else in class AA right now.
If the Spuds win, then it’s just the MN Vikings left that need to get their $#!* together.

Yeah, the Spuds have lost some excruciating games on Saturday night. They usually play pretty well in those games. They’ve definitely ran into a few buzz saws that not many would’ve beat.
The Vikings, on the other hand, always laid an egg in the SB games they were in.

I'm taking the Spuds about 5-2. Stillwater has looked the part, but neither Shakopee nor STA could hurt them offensively. Moorhead can and will.

Moorhead will have to play a full 51 minutes tonight. Took them a while against South and Edina to get their $#!+ together. If they come out of the gate slow tonight they could find themselves down by a large margin early.

In fairness, the Vikings drew some brutal, legendary opponents. They never got to play teams like the Bengals or Chargers.

If it were Vikings vs. Bills would anyone win?

That is very true. Aggravating stat of the day-Vikings are a the 3rd winningest team in the NFL since 1965. Of the top 15 only one has never won a SB.

And the Wild. And the T-wolves, but does anybody here watch basketball?

Rather amazing we still have an nba team given how bad we've been over the decades. 87 and 91 were our golden moments, and the pro women have all the titles.

After playing 15 OTs, the game gets declared a draw.

I think this one is already over unless Stillwater can pull a Hill Murray repeat and win 8-7 in OT.

Well I did predict it...
Glad to see other teams can crap the bed too. Good for Moorhead, this is 30 years in the coming.
I think Stillwater got unlucky with Andover and STA who couldn't challenge them. They came into this game thinking they were really something. They are learning differently.

If I recall correctly, there is no running time in the state championship. Or at least that was the rule when I was young.

I don't think even HM could come back in this one. Moorhead learned their lesson.
