That is what happens when you go first on something big, you get to make it into a huge deal and people will make it into one.
They never would have done it if we hadn't, they all know it but are too prideful to admit it. Which is fine.

If I could come back and play in one more college game this definitely would be the week... #GoBison #TheFightingWho??
Sent from Win8 phone on a bullet train from Hillsboro.
Found this in an article on the ncaa.com website.
(Thomas, Lennon, Schweigert were football coaches at UND).
But Thomas and his staff, which by then included eventual coaching successors Dale Lennon and Bubba Schweigert, along with then-assistant coach Rob Bollinger, designed a plan to recruit and develop players to counter the Bison's vaunted, run-oriented veer offense, as well as to develop a passing attack of their own. "We worked hard at recruiting," Thomas said.
A reason why the UND game should be just another game. In the early 1990s UND started recruiting and developing players so it could beat the Bison. In other words, to be best in ND. As some of us have argued ... wrong perspective for NDSU. The goal of NDSU is to be strong at a national level, to be able to compete against a variety of offensive & defensive schemes. If NDSU starts making it a priority to defeat UND, rather than a priority to be strong nationally, it will harm NDSU's competitiveness. Part of the reason I don't like this so-called rivalry. I think the numbers speak for themselves - NDSU 12, UND 1.

Seeing how some fans are already fed up with their first Bison-**** week makes me think I got off easy having to deal only with my co-workers and the main stream media when it came to this game for most of my life. Internet and social media probably would have made it unbearable when we played every year and had playoff implications.
It is interesting how this year the Bison play probably their three biggest "rivals" three straight games in a row.
The Good: SDSU
The Bad: UNI
and the Suckey: UND
No mention of the big game in Denver. Whioux free weekend here.
