Wasn't much to see between 57 and 63.
I remember being at this game with two of my brothers, it was pouring rain, miserable. Bison starting QB was injured and Dale May came in to QB.

Jay Gustafson died a couple years ago.
Two or three Cichy's played for the Bison. One was a Center, was it Mike? And Joe was a hard hitting DB, maybe LBr. I remember one of the games the Bison beat Montana in the Camelia Bowl, Joe hit a Montana ball carrier so hard you could hear the UFFF on the broadcast. Absolutely knocked the snot outta the guy.

Nick was a DB as was Joe.

The book is being passed around. Maybe you can get ahold of it by sending a pm to a couple of the last posters here... http://www.bisonville.com/forum/show...ght=excellence
Looks like Gully might have it...or would know who has it.

Well I had a hard time getting the quotes to work earlier, and after about 20 tries gave up on the edit function, but this worked soooooo: I think it should have been OOOF instead of UFFF. LOL
