I'm sure they were glad I told them to stay.:nod:
That was a great game! I think I was on an official visit as a high school senior pretty near front row of students section. It was awesome. Place blew up.

Rhett Bomer was a Sooner transfer and was a dude in that game---358 yards passing, 103 rushing and 4 TD's. He went on to have a cup of coffee with the Giants, Vikings, and Raiders.

That 2007 team holds a special place in my heart. Steve Walker is still my favorite Bison QB. What they were able to accomplish that season was special. I remember hearing rumors about a possible bowl invite if they were to finish undefeated, but then they lost a heart-breaker to SDSU to close the season. What a great squad!

Similar for me. GSMB from 94-99. Didn't care about FB for most of that, but became a drum major for 98 & 99. Needed to learn the game at least somewhat to do a good job. Then the early DI success convinced me it was good for the university, so I became an actual fan after that.

I am going to date myself, but we played a playoff game in the snow at Dacotah field in lots of snow. I was little guy, and I loved how everyone in the stands wore camo and blaze orange. The linemen were tough because they did not wear coats or sleeves. I wanted to be like them. I am going to say this was in the early 90s.
Also, I was brought up... Sioux Suck and they still do :hide:
Most memborable game in the Dome was Steve Walker vs Sam Houston. We went 80 yards in like 23 seconds to win.
