    On another note it pisses me off beyond belief when the away team stays in the locker room until after the national anthem is over. I was so glad that the only away game I attended this year (Minnesota). I was able to see the bison stand with pride on the sideline during the national anthem. What does the away team gain by not standing on the line like the home team? Complete disrespect!!!!!
    It's an attempt to get into the heads of the home team...and to insulate their players from the environment that escalates just prior to the game.

    In other words...it's stupid.

    If you wore the uniform...you're a champion.

    Me either. And so far this year, it's worked for every game (knock on wood).

    Wear the same green for away games and the same yellow for home games, whether I am at the game or not.

    The weird thing is I have never had any team I root for win a title while being superstitious. So technically I should be doing the opposite of superstitious, but that would be being superstitious anyway so I will just stick with what I am doing.

    1. Saying "I hope we win this weekend." This was called out by a friend earlier this season as sounding "wishy-washy" but I said it versus Minnesota and every game since and we haven't lost.
    2. Wearing the homecoming hankie as a bandana. Luckily I haven't used it as a hankie yet.

    I get very close-mouthed before the game. My family knows better than to try and strike up a conversation as the game approaches. Not sure if this qualifies as a superstition, but the family is very aware of this ritual.

    Nice to see some new, younger folks posting here. (not you 4mcrue)

    When you play football, you gotta like the taste of blood, And 50 percent of the time, it's your blood.

    It is characteristic of the unlearned that they are forever proposing something which is old, and because it has recently come to their own attention, supposing it to be new.

    1. Same sweatshirt and sweatpants to every game along with a yellow shirt.
    2. Watch every game with same friend (visitors are welcome) in section 16, row R on the very end of the student section (give or take two rows depending on availability)
    3. After every game, I go to a friend's house with our dads and have dinner.
    4. Get my student ticket every week at 8:30 AM on Monday morning
    5. Every week I have posted the same thing on facebook:
    "Just another Bison Win"

    OPPOSING TEAM __ (points)
