It's amazing how vividly I remember those. Including 95 when I was a kid. What was the year that the impossible happened and the Bison just had to beat St. Cloud and we were into the playoffs. I may be misremembering but I think a handful of teams we needed to lose actually did. This was back in the days of reading d2football.com or whatever that prehistoric blog site was. They had us at like a 5% chance to get in. Then we went o St. Cloud (or was it Mankato?) and got throttled. I remember a receiver or end dropping a touchdown pass right at the goaline, about summed up the whole game.
UNI had a silver lining. It was the first game they put Jensen in (and he promptly got sacked).
Poly didn't feel shocking at the time. They were the kings of the Great West. A few years later they came into the Dome and lost by like 50 and I knew we'd turned a corner. Great program, would like to play both them and UCD more for old-time sake.

BIGGER ISSUE---Offense likes to use our QB in the run game---non existent with Zeb

That was the toughest emotionally, because that team played very well in the championship and really was a great team overall. Really loved Bentrim and all those Don Morton teams. I would separate it for those reasons.
Yesterday was terrible for opposite reasons, such poor play overall, legitimate questions about direction of the program.
