Not sure why that's particularly noteworthy. :innocent:

Really, though... relative lack of NFL players is one of the arguments that FBS teams used to use against us. Obviously, NDSU alums have had a little more recent success in the NFL, but we did fine against some great competition without loads of NFL talent in the past. If you want to pick on GFCC, then it's probably more noteworthy how poorly they performed against us last time we played or how poorly they did in the playoffs.

So is Harvard that good or do they just have a small number of consistent standouts? Makes me wonder if they’d be a perennial FCS playoff contender. Whenever I watch them they look pretty darn good but they’re always playing other Ivy’s so it’s hard to know for sure.

I believe they get a few very talented players because they are an Ivy League school, however a few great players do not make a great team.

they could be very good, unlimited money etc..they choose Academics over athletics. Great history in CFB

A rule for all Bison to live by: Take every opportunity available to bash the Sioux. And yes, they also performed poorly against us last time, and in the playoffs last year. But that is just piling it on.:)
