Should Jamestown be accepted into the NSIC?

[MrMustang]

It was 75 Interstate. 4 lane divided roads are 70. 2 lane state highways are 65.

North Dakota has good roads


despite the bump on I29 and I 94 the trip to Jamestown there will be all back roads and small town exploring. On the way home likely 81 mph on the interstates

[MrMustang]

well it is offical. Jamestown in their first NSIC poll. it has happened

Found out that the car doesn't like 80 MPH from a gas mileage standpoint....... I guess the sweet spot is somewhere between 60-75 MPH.

My Thunderbird got 30 mph at 62 mph. Then I got a Ranger. 18 at that speed. I don't feel comfortable at 80 mph anymore with my Escape. 70 is fast enough. But yes, you can watch the gauge go down.

I've noticed that with my vehicles as well. I'm not saving any time by driving faster if I have to make more gas stops. I usually set the cruise at 70 mph.

Plus I've noticed it's a lot less stressful to let everyone else worry about passing me, instead of being the one worrying about passing others.

I guess with the price of a barrel of light sweet crude where it is at (opened a hair over $65 today), the State of North Dakota had to do something to try and increase production in the oil fields. Let's let everyone drive 80+ and burn more fuel.

Sometimes I leave early and drive slowly on the way TO a game. Very relaxing because I never have to worry about being pulled over and can watch the countryside. Also, less likely to get there late and worry about driving too fast. I still get there ahead of time.

I wish I had that patience. Unless I'm driving through a town I'm always going at least 5-10 over the speed limit. That usually bumps up to 15 when I get to Minneapolis. Don't get me started on Chicago.

Uff..... Chicago..... We were driving through once, doing 80-85 and getting passed like we were standing still.

We had a similar experience earlier this year down in Miami.

I think Mankato is underrated in these. They have made some strides

Kato should be two spots higher at minimum - but they're going to be a dark horse team this year. Not quite in the upper echelon of the conference, but they're going to pull off some upsets.

in my opinion anyway.

[Stanger86]

And the limited number of home games across several sports is an eye-opener. I may write a book in 2030 on Jamestown's decision because we're at 173 pages at this point and growing.

I'm not quite sure where you are going with this. I haven't really seen anything eye-opening yet.

i haven’t followed NSiC VB, so I was surprised to see Mankato down so low…FB and both BB seem to be near the top, quite often, so I assumed VB would be similar.
