So if you want to make !@#$ up as you go along head over to the imaginary land called Bisonswille. Where you can fit right in. Expand I agree, no one here said we win a Natty Title but the fact that we keep bringing up not getting in the playoffs and whole quality loss thing is what keeps driving this issue. We laid an egg against Idaho State and Weber and it came back to bite us. No use constantly bringing up missing the playoffs because that just feeds the Bison with the idea that we somehow thought we make this long playoff run to the championship. Quote

Expand Well one of your UND beat writers tweeted out when there weren't enough bowl eligible teams that a team in Grand Forks would take on anybody in the FBS.

They want everyone to kneel down and kiss their feet, and when someone doesn't, its an issue. They want justification at all times as to why they are gods gift. I work with some ndsu fans and they are very good with acknowledging what they have done but do not need the every day pat on the back and did not inherit the gloat attitude. They win and lose with dignity as where these f,?&$ing trolls feel the need to come here and remind us why nobody on this planet has a chance. Then they wait for a response and when it's not what they want to hear, everyone else is an idiot. Stay at you own site so you can circle j@#^ 24/7. Quote

What you will find if one would dig hard enough is NDSU fans who wrote about going to a bowl game in about 2008ish when they were not playoff elgible. Weird that was ok at the time. 2 Quote

Kind of sounds like Mr. Nelson thinks UND was as good as anybody in the country. Expand Wayne Nelson isn't a beat writer. There wasn't enough bowl eligible teams. UND absolutely would have loved the opportunity to keep playing football. Kind of sounds like you're really reaching. Or maybe he dug through Forum Communication's archives and found some of the bowl game crap that came out of Fargo when the writers down there were beating the drum from NDSU to get invited to a bowl game during their transition.

Have you ever heard what's said between SDSU/USD fans or Montana/Montana State fans? It's called rivalry talk - now if you want to read hate talk about a rival head over to Bisonswille you'll find an entire category of it. Meanwhile I still have to question why so many SU trolls take the time to come here - a fan site for the Flagship School of North Dakota that SU only plays once every four years - when you have a team playing for a national championship. So much envy and insecurity, it's like UND hurt you or something? Expand Who is this rival you speak of? NDSU has a rival? NONSENSE! Quote

One thing I don't want to hear is that the whole State of North Dakota should get together and rally around the almighty Bison because it "benefits the whole state". HORSECRAP! It only benefits NDSU and Imperial Cass County....and that is it. Simply put, I am a fan of whomever is playing the Bison every week (regular season or playoffs).
