    I think they do get trophies. Since 6 wins gets you a bowl game and there are 35 bowl games for 125 teams, there are a lot of trophies out there.

    In fact more than 1/4th of the teams will get a trophy. Who's trophy chasing?

    NDSU is. Only we seek the only trophy out there with NCAA Champions on it.

    I am so sick of the Bison already. Win this, win that, blah, blah, blah. I'd really, really like to know how they do it. I swear they have to be the luckiest sob's on the planet. Just sick of this bs, just fed up.

    Of course they get trophys. And they show them off proudly to the recruits.

    Then they're trophy collecting. Like a participation ribbon.

    I think it was Dan Barriero that said they actually have championship banners for the Sun Bowl at the Gopher stadium.

    Oh I'm sure they do. Moral victories. It's a glorified OOC game scheduled based on your seasons record at a neutral site no one wants to go to and means jack crap. There's no tomorrow to play for in those games and it costs you nothing if you lose because your season is over anyway. Pointless, pointless games.

    Buffalo Wild Wings Bowl


    Cotton Bowl


    Idaho Potato Bowl

Hard to replace Billy & Brock, but it will be done.

    IMO, we will not be favored in the national polls, or in the MVFC behind UNI. These are both good motivators for 2014. Should we be favored int he National and MVFC polls, YES.

    As for replacing Bohl . . . in all honesty, it was his time to go, and I'm kinda glad we are starting new. While none of the player had their names on the back of the jerseys, and quite frankly was a very modest group, it was starting to become all about Bohl at NDSU. While I like the guy and hope he is successful in Wyo, his ego was certainly growing in 2013.
    Lindys has us as #1 in the MVFC.
