Good Luck Bison+++

I know polls are not exact science (like weather forecasts) but it is still so cool to see NDSU mentioned with some of the schools. Great job coaches and players!!

Yes, it is great to see the Bison sandwiched inbetween Louisiana-Lafayette and Jacksonville St.

I'm kidding. Congrats to the ladies. They have been among one of the many bright spots of NDSU's short stint in D1 athletics. Good luck this year ladies and continue to make us proud.
