September 22nd, 2007: North Dakota State @ Central Michigan
Just 7 days after their dramatic come from behind win against Sam Houston State highlighted earlier in this countdown the Bison travelled to Mount Pleasant, Michigan to face defending (and future) MAC champion Central Michigan. NDSU cruised to a shockingly easy 44-14 victory thoroughly dominating their FBS opponent and moved the #4 Bison to 3-0 on the season but moreover it was the most impressive win for NDSU football in the D1 era to this point and firmly entrenched the belief from Bison faithful everywhere that not only does this Bison football program belong in D1 but that they could be something special at this level. Some fun facts from the opponent on this game is that future NFL greats Antonio Brown (9 catches 54 yards 1 TD) and JJ Watt (who was a TE but didn't record any stats) both played for CMU. They also had QB Dan LeFevour who ended up playing a few years in the NFL and finished that 2007 season with nearly 5000 yards of total offense and 46 combined TDs.

#27 on the end of the highlight reel was Antonio Brown, yes that Antonio Brown. JJ Watt was also on that team, and the head coach. Pretty awesome
If he were ad we would be in our own league we would play a mix of Saturday’s and sundays.... Alabama ... Norte Dame... Pittsburgh Steelers... San Francisco 49ers
We would then Hold a secondary playoff on his private Caribbean island between the Bizon and the national champ and super bowl champ
