Just curious, how many are thinking the same way as me. I am still on a high after that big win against Georgia Southern. The electricity in the Fargodome, the play of the Bison, beating a team that was played up to be tough to defend, some of the huge plays, an involved crowd, etc. I am really glad there is three weeks between games so that I can continue to be on that high. If the game was played today, that would be too soon.
Now, to discuss the title of this thread for a second. I am guessing that most of you remember the NDSU - Kansas basketball game in the NCAA tournament, played during a weekday. I was at the game. Great atmosphere, much like the NDSU - Georgia Southern football game. Things I remember, the loud crowd, the green and gold throughout the stands, David vs. Goliath, the close score, the team waving thanks to the fans when exiting, etc. The big surprise - when I came home, I learned that time stood still in North Dakota during that game. Most people quit what they were doing, whether work or school or whatever, and watched the game. It was like a national holiday.
I have to believe that the same will happen come January 7.
The fish could be biting, Scheels could have a 75 percent off of everything in their store, it could be 80 degrees outside in January in North Dakota ... and most of us wouldn't even notice because we would be focused. Time will once again stop for about three hours in the very near future in North Dakota.
