NDSU beat Portland State for the D2 title in 1988. Portland State is worse now than they were then. I saw that game at the Eagles/Elks ?, the last year downtown, and I'm watching Portland state now.

Looking back the University of Kansas flies under the radar of great Bison wins from the past. It was a hard hitting, low scoring defensive battle on the grid iron. A great statement The Herd was poised to march across the prairie taking Kansas, Iowa and minnesota.

Reading comprehension is failing you. Or youre just blinded by your own bullshit. Trolling or just plain stupid? With that I will leave you to again have a conversation with yourself.

:lol:

If that’s all the better you can behave you certainly won’t be missed!

I might ask you though, if you weren’t such a pecker-head,, where do you draw the line on ancient history?

Yes they did lose to Abilene Christian, my mistake.

I have seen Harvard on early brackets so I think they are in. One bracket had them on a collision course with The Bison. 🦬

Found this:
Ivy League
Locks: None
Should Be In: Harvard

Harvard moves into the "Should Be In" tier after moving to 8-0 and have beaten every team by 17 points or more. The Crimson still needs to take care of business against Penn and Yale to secure the auto bid, but if they finish 10-0, they should earn a Top 8 seed. Even at 9-1, the Crimson would be in position to get an at-large bid.

This week Harvard stumbled a bit in a wide open 45-43 win over a weak U Penn.

The best game was the 5 OT extravaganza won by USD 53-51. SIU left it all on the field as they say and the whole thing was crazy. Definitely worth catching on replay.

The Racers gave us a great first half leading against und only to see the wheels come off in the second losing 35-17. Good luck to the Racers. They are a new program just getting their sea legs. Can’t wait for Racers/Murray state

Montana flexed its muscles putting up 63 on a miserable Portland State. At this moment I see The Grizz as the top contender followed by several threats, including a severely wounded und.

All-and-all The Bison are beginning to separate themselves from the FCS. For a number of years it was just a good run. Now it’s being recognized more and more as a program in the wrong division. The announcers made a few comments yesterday alluding to that.
