I have always enjoyed this rivalry. I have friends from both schools. In the 60's watched the games on TV. the 80's were tough to watch. I remember Roger Thomas hard years making UND competitive again. a couple years really stand out for me. the Year Mooney stole the ball and ran for a TD. It was very cold and I had a single ticket on the visitor side. While waiting for the gate to open to get into Memorial stadium, everyone was talking about how cold it was. There was a mixture of Sioux and Bison fans all waiting to get in to the stadium. I looked around and close to me was Ozbun, president of NDSU with a fur hat on and was complaining how cold it was. I had a Sioux stocking cap on and asked if he wanted to trade hats. we all laughed at that, even Ozbun. The play of Mooney was so puzzling to the fan were I was seated. Nobody knew it was a TD until he was almost in the Endzone. loved that play. The other memory is the game Kleinsasser ran for the TD. I and some friend mostly Bison and some Sioux were attending the game together. My Bison friends could not believe the run or could I. Jimmy made the Sioux so proud. I too would like to thank, Bubba, Faison and staff for making this game possible. This will be a very good game for the state of North Dakota. I believe we have the defense to win this game. At any rate this will be a good season and I smell conference title. one game at a tome.
