82 days left

82- In 1921, NDSU became a charter member of the now-defunct North Central Conference, which they remained affiliated with for 82 years until 2003
As members of Division II, they won 8 national championships with an overall record of 347-94-4 having only 2 losing seasons from 1964-2003 Wow

82- Grant Olson's tackle total for the 2013 season. 3rd on the team for total tackles. An impressive feat considering he played in less than 75% of games last year(11-15)

82....the official number of the BZVFC!!!

Not quite correct. Don't believe everything you read on Wikipedia. There are a lot of errors on that shit site.

NDSU won five DII national championships (83, 85, 86, 88, 90). It is important to note that DII football came into being in 1973, not before.

The championships NDAC (NDSU) won in 65, 68, and 69 were by AP/UPI voting for the "Small College" division of college football, not DII.

66 Days Left, can't come soon enough (I don't mind the FBS talk but it gets old, good enough for off season talk though I suppose)

66.3- Brock Jensen's completion percentage last year which helps compute his top passing efficiency in the MVFC and 5th in all of FCS

66 - Points scored last year by John Crockett(3rd on team)

Yep, 58. As in "In 1977, NDSU beat UNI 58-0."
