    Default Answer: 11

    Question: On a scale of 1-10, how spoiled are Bison fans right now?

    1. We're 6-0 but the schedule has been weak... wait a second - nobody else out there has played two of last year's semifinalists and beaten them both. Sure, some MVFC teams still have a chance do that in the regular season, but they haven't done it yet. Heck, USD is the only FCS team to have a win against one of last year's semifinalists.
    2. Most teams don't get to experience a 6-game winning streak more than once a decade (if that.)
    3. Most teams didn't avenge a playoff loss on the other team's home field with a beat down.
    4. I can't think of any other teams who have gone on the road and beaten two top-10 teams.

    Didn't you hear? Our QB and coach suck.

    Most FCS teams don't sell out home games or have a decent tailgating experience. Last year we won six games against teams that finished in the top 20 Sagarin ratings and an FBS team.
    It's OK to not be OK.

    This! You would think we were 4 & 2, coming off a couple of bad losses, and searching for an identity. Wait - that's South Dakota State. Seriously though, Bison Nation would be in melt down mode if anything resembling a downturn occurs. Extremely spoiled fan base.

    I don't care how the vote ended up. They still suck and always will.

    Bullshit!!!

    How can I possibly be spoiled when we haven't won a Natty in over a year, had a pom-pom event in over two years, and hosted a GameDay in over 3 years??!!

    C'mon Tony, think before you post!
