    Default In my lifetime I never thought I'd see...

    ...these.

    1. The Bison playing Minnesota...and beating them.
    2. The Bison wearing gold (yellow) jerseys.
    3. The Bison playing in a dome.
    4. The Bison ranked in the top 50 in any poll that included FBS schools.
    5. The Bison playing on national television. (correction...I've seen this many times...you know, as in the old playoff vids that I have...excedrin please... )

    Please continue...

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

    consistently beating fbs and bcs schools and expecting to beat them. Honestly I was shocked when we beat Montana as a D2 team with half the scholarships, a bigger disparity than we see now with fbs.

    When I was young, I never thought of us going against teams like Minnesota, Wyoming, Colorado State, etc

    myself cheering for the bison.

    Seriously, I grew up in northern minnesota. I never heard of NDSU until my brother came out here in 2002, I am happy I followed!

    Until about 2006 or 2007 or so, I thought I'd never see the Bison basketball team play in March Madness.

    Never thought i'd see the Basketball team beat teams like Wisconsin and make it to the field of 64 (65). It was bison basketball games that my family used to attend as a child that sparked my dad to get season tix to football. If it weren't for basketball i wouldn't' have so many great memories from the late 80's-early 90's of Dacotah field and such!

    Ditto on this.
    The first few minutes of that day's TV broadcast was incredibly surreal.

    Going to "The Dance" and seeing NDSU play Kansas tough.......in a packed house at the Metrodome......during the first year of eligibility. Pure magic.........pure magic!

    The Bison playing on national television is nothing new. The championship games in the 80s were all televised, and weren't the games (such as the ones against Montana) from the late 60's on national television also?
