Which would you take right now?

Beating Iowa and not winning the conference and natty would take a lot of the luster off of beating Iowa. Being the giant killer doesn't mean as much when you aren't killing those on your own level, as well. Then we just become the team that beat Iowa on any given Saturday. We can be the school that beat Iowa and won 6 in a row because we are badass and we can beat any school on Saturday. Tall order, but if anyone is up to it, don't put it past the Bison.

That's how I expect UNI, Illinois State, EWU and Richmond will be feeling at the end of this year when NDSU wins its sixth straight title.

They will just become schools that had an awesome Saturday. I like being part of the tradition striving towards having an awesome season.

Me too and why I dislike these hypothetical polls where total success isn't available. Doesn't fit the culture of the program.

If I had to choose one of them......... A, we play for Natty's.

Lost to USD last year and brought home a 5th national championship. Individual games dont mean jack if you dont bring home the title.

[HerdBot]

That's a trick and bullshit question designed to elicit a bullshit response, AKA Trolling

I would rather beat Iowa, lose a conference game or 2, then repeat, the three peat.

why dont bison fans bring up Sam houston, towson wins etc to Iowa fans to justify NDSU's greatness then?

We do, but collectively.

It's easy for FBS fans to dismiss SHS-who? and "Townsend" because they've never heard of them before, but saying we have beaten 20 straight playoff games against the best of our division in a single elimination tournament might mean something to all but the most ignorant of FBS fans. Especially when you point out that the FCS teams that are beating FBS teams tend to be the ones in the playoffs.

The thing I hear the most when NDSU is mentioned in the national media is "Five time consecutive national champion NDSU Bison!" My Question is, why can't we play Iowa tough and still win the Natty?

I don't ever see national championship opponents be brought ever. Where do you get that assumption??

Winning 20 straight do or dies is more impressive than the 5 Natty's in my own mind. Even though theyve all been home games.
