I like the Gold Pit or Gold Mine. Nothing too crazy here folks.
I liked Gold Mine as well.

People tend to get too cute with nicknames. Take the Seattle NHL team. The Seattle Kraken? Sounds like some independent league team when the following options were available.

Seattle Steelheads
Seattle Salmon

or, if you want a mythical name … Seattle Sasquatch.

Kraken is just dumb and has nothing to do with the PNW.

Gold Mine. Wrap it up because the contest is over.


Seattle to Billings to Missoula to Bozeman to Portland to Billings

What a ride

Disagree....I think Kraken is one of the best names in all of professional sports.

Yea Kraken is awesome. There is a huge maritime community out here so it fits, even if the Kraken itself isn't local (or even American). It was the fan favorite name too so it's cool they relied so much on the fans when choosing the name.

Their color scheme is hideous though. I like hockey and I'd love to switch my affiliation from the Blues to the Kraken but I just hate the colors too damn much. Need to get to a game though.

I'm actually surprised the naming rights of the student section hasn't been sold to a corporate sponsor.

something like......

The Ford Edge Student Section. Giving our athletes an Edge over the competition....cmon down to our local Ford showroom and test drive one of our new 2023 models that will give you that extra Edge you need to stay in the lead.

I miss the Case IH Rrrreeddd Zoonnneee! The Rosauer's Vegetable Zone, as I call it, is just about the worst replacement ever. If the school can't find a better sponsor for the red zone than a grocery store someone in marketing needs to be fired.

I believe Learfield owns all the advertising and naming rights.

The Train Station
I love this. Especially since people just want to know..... and who the Bobcats are playing. Take em to the train station Rip. And if they got Rip to come to a game to announce the name......

Though give it a decade and the name would lose its meaning. But it would be unique.
It would take less than a decade for it to be played out.







/it’s already played out.
Agreed!

What about The Woodshed (take them to The Woodshed)? Seems to be enduring...


Never argue with an idiot. They bring you down to their level and beat you with experience.

Battle Zone.


Can't make up my mind as to which is better - 55-21 or 48-14.

I think the student section already has an official unofficial name.

the Enthusiastic Students Generally Going Crazy Group

If that's a little too long and doesn't roll off the tongue easily perhaps it could be shortened somehow.

I would imagine the powers that be are looking for something a bit different than that.


If you're looking for someone with a little authority, I'm your man. I have as little as anyone!

I like Gold Mine!

Ideas from our fight song:
Vim Zone
The SUAC (Stand Up And Cheer)
Gold Wave


The Den
Vim Block

I didn't realize this is for basketball, but could work for football too I guess
I did like the MUSS when we lived in SLC - Mighty Utah Student Section - good for all sports & seems unique

Some of my favorite memories as a young lad growing up in Seattle are of when Lenny Wilkens would release The Kraken and it would emerge from the depths of Puget Sound. Awe inspiring.

To each their own but I still see it as a gimmicky name and somewhat of an embarrassment.


Seattle to Billings to Missoula to Bozeman to Portland to Billings

What a ride
