Pretty impressive blurb for the Bison Freshmen when concidering what other schools were mentioned. NDSU was also mentioned on sportscenter this morning when the college ananlysts were asked which team needs to step their efforts in order to make the big dance. Paraphrasing: "Wisconsin needs to step up, especially after loosing 5 of last 6, including a loss to North Dakota State..."

Still riding the PR wave...

On Sunday night, another ESPN TV analyst (Doug Gotlieb) said the Big Ten teams learned a lot from NDSU about ways to beat the Badgers. Granted, Wisconsin's recent troubles have something to due with injuries and players leaving school.

Good to see those freshman getting props on the national level. I also love how they state the 4, and comment on how they start for the Bison.

People are wide eyed enough when they see a team like NDSU beating Wisconsin, but then when they see that NDSU starts 4 freshman, it's almost like a double take.

OT: I can't believe Kansas didn't get any mention from Brandon Rush, who is one of the most talented and impacted freshman in the nation. Chalmers, and also Julian Wright are great freshman, but Rush is the catalyst on that team offensively.

Terrific article. Nice to see them get mentioned.

Lots of frosh faces on the team - those four and Lorenzo Riley and Tom Lunde (get well soon).
