This team reminds me of the 2011/2012 teams. The potential is there, but you never know from week to week how it's going to go. Yeah, it's early, but that's the feeling I get.

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.
We beat 2 top 25 teams to Start the season in OOC, Iowa game makes no difference, just need to get out without injuries.
if it all goes like it looks we be facing 7 of 10 opponents ranked in the top 25 and 1 FBS top 25 team, we win the conference we will be a top 2 seed. Lots of work but its a good start

We all live in stories... It seems to me that a definition of any living vibrant society is that you constantly question those stories... The argument itself is freedom. It's not that you come to a conclusion about it. Through that argument you change your mind sometimes... That's how societies grow. When you can't retell for yourself the stories of your life then you live in a prison... Somebody else controls the story. - S. Rushdie
