It will be a fun game but gopher fans aren't excited about ndsu and we aren't fearing a loss. Just a non conf game that most don't care about unless we know a bizon fan who doesn't live in reality and tells us about how dominate the bizon are...
I agree that Gopher fans aren't excited, but are most Gopher fans really not fearing a loss??? They're less than a year removed from losing to the University of South Dakota - an average FCS team at the time. In the last five years that's 2 losses to FCS teams, a 3-point win over SDSU, a 12-point win over Montana State, and a 1-point win over the Bison. Until the program has a few solid years, I'd certainly be nervous about losing to the Bison. It has to be embarassing at this point. I'd fully expect that the U should beat most teams not in a BCS conference, let alone the FCS, and I sincerely hope Kill can get things on track. Until then, I don't think the Bison fans are being delusional at all (that happens during basketball season
).
