Basketball Bison had a great season and can rest secure in the knowledge that they took the program to new heights. More national publicity than the football team garnered, even counting Game Day.
Still, the football team ended 3 seasons with wins, including an undefeated finish this year. The greater team?
When we needed to come back against Kansas State, who among you doubted that Brock would find a way to win? When we needed to come back against San Diego State, who among you doubted that Taylor would find a way to win? The greater team?
Our football team this year had the knowledge, skills and confidence to take on whatever was in front of them, all the way to the title. The basketball team, and this takes nothing away from their great accomplishment, did the very best they could. But it wasn't enough to catch and finish off a team that they dominated in the opening minutes (with a crappy shooting percentage). The greater team?
It's pretty clear to me.
