A national championship by poll isn't the same as a national championship that was won in a game though.

I don't understand why NDSU fans are always talking about their 8 national championships. I can sort of understand bragging about the ones from the 80's, but what do the championships from the 60's prove? It reminds me of all of the stupid little towns that I drive through that have signs up that say "1935 state champions". Who gives a s&!t. Just because you won a championship almost 40 years ago doesn't mean that your school is better than anybody else now.

I am looking forward to this weekend, where the Sioux should have a 2 game conference winning streak going into Sat with SDSU. I thing UND has a shot against SDSU because I can guarantee that SDSU is overlooking the men. The NDSU-SDSU game is make-or-break for both teams, SDSU loses they have a very slim shot at winning the league, the Bison lose their playoff hopes are all but shot (unless they win the conference tourney). UND matches up with SDSU pretty sell, and if the Sioux can take care of the ball (cut own turnovers) like they did against the Bison, it should be a game. I am curious to see what kind of crowd will show up with hockey in town and all, though. I think UND will have a tough time with SDSU because of their depth. Even though the starters match up well with theirs, SDSU still has some tall freshman that will be able to trade with the starters and wear the men down.
