Yeah NDSU is THAT terrible. Seriously it is mind-boggling to me how some people - on both sides - just cannot seem to give credit where credit is due to the other school. Maybe it's just me but I would prefer the two schools to be in the same conference, Big Sky or Valley, don't matter to me. A non-conference football matchup is good for bragging rights....a conference game is good for so much more. Doesn't mean we have to resort back to the NCC days whatsoever but I think it's safe to say UND, USD, SDSU and NDSU have/will successfully make the transition athletically no matter what you think about the other school.

App State (although I think WI gives them a tight one) SFA E. Wash. Delaware NH Wofford WM Montana State Bison fan. Bison need to force 2-3 turnovers and themselves 0-1 to have a shot. Mobile QBs have given them fits at times this year. Offensive coordinator (Vigen) needs to mix it up a bit on first and second down if the weather allows so the Cats aren't looking run, run, pass like every Bison fan knows is coming. This defense is good enough to keep them in the game for a long time though. We'll see what happens. Maybe we can get Sioux fans at least to root for the local boys like Gratzek, Grothman, etc....ha! I personally can't wait for the day when both the Sioux and the Bison are in the playoffs and hopefully on a constant basis. Even though the Bison are lucky as hell to squeek in, as a season ticket holder it is very exciting. Can't imagine what it would be like if we were talking both ND teams in round two of the FCS playoffs.
