....NCAA football playoffs could return to Fargo this year?!? :) The first division 1 football playoff game ever to be played in the state of ND could occur in a few short months? :nod: The Fargodome could FINALLY be christened as the Home of the post-season Bison? :bow:

Its been a long time, folks. Lets get ready for some football!

Exactly, that's why I'm crazy over this season. AND, why I had some crazy posts after we lost to SDSU last year. I don't settle. I want it all.

First round of the playoffs is the 1st Saturday after Thanksgiving. I know expansion of the playoffs is happening sometime soon, don't know if it is this year or not. If we are one of the top 12? teams then we would have a first round bye. But that all depends on if the playoff expansion happens this year or not.

I thought FCS playoff expansion to twenty teams wasn't slated until 2010... :confused:

I couldn't remember when it started, so to answer his question, when we make the playoffs we will be playing the Saturday after Thanksgiving.

You're right. I wasn't thinking when I posted that.
