It's obvious to all but the most embittered rivals. only one data point but a co-worker came back from a Minnesota-NDSU football game a few years ago and couldn't believe how arrogant and obnoxious the NDSU fans were. He is not a UM fan and was pretty open minded going into the game but was completely turned off by the NDSU fans that he encountered. There are good and bad fans of all teams. 3 Quote

SIOUXFAN97 Posted September 20, 2016 Posted September 20, 2016 and barney ball's TWO wins over FBS teams (and one in record fashion) in the same season is a bigger story/shocker than the ac beating iowa by a field goal. 1 1 Quote

MafiaMan Posted September 20, 2016 Posted September 20, 2016 Love some of the comments here... pre-Iowa game: the Hawkeyes aren't Iowa State or Kansas. They're gonna roll NDSU bad! 30 seconds post-Iowa game: Meh. Worst Iowa team I've seen in recent memory. A six-win season at best. Quote

I'm pleasantly surprised there are UND fans with comments like the one you just quoted yet floating around; we all know such UND alliances are fading each and every week around here. NDSU continues to impress the masses and load up the bandwagon. Quote

Sampson Posted September 21, 2016 Posted September 21, 2016 I'm an NDSU fan and the Bison fanbase is extremely obnoxious. The only fanbase more obnoxious are the Sioux hockey fanbase. 3 Quote

LOL Actually, I wanted to say that when I say that I think NDSU should move up, it's not so UND can avoid them. I really believe that they have a golden opportunity to move to FBS and shouldn't pass it up. I'd like to see an FBS team out of North Dakota. We all know it won't be UND anytime soon, if ever. 1 1 Quote

After moving to the Twin Cities I found that in general Gopher hockey fans are more obnoxious and many of them are much less knowledgeable about the game. Their feelings of superiority drive me nuts. I quickly found a new bond with UND hockey. 4 Quote

I have to shake my head many times when I hear some new UND hockey fans talk, and especially the ones that are in the hockey only crowd and thumb their nose to the football team. 1 Quote
