NDSU had 17 starters either transfer or get injured last year. Literally 17 STARTERS were missing and they still pulled a rabbit out of a hat to make the title game against SDSU. Amazing
A jackrabbit?
Can't say enough about Coach Klieman. He was absolutely a home run hire for the Cats. He's making history at K-State... winning the conference after just four seasons is the fastest a Wildcats coach has ever done that.
Was enrolled in NDSU in 2011 during the first title run. Such a fun time, when winning like that was still a new thing, haha. Would love to see them jump to FBS someday, but sadly, don't think it will happen anytime soon.
It just doesn’t make sense geographically I don’t think
I was at SHSU 2011-2013. Such an awesome time. If it wasn’t for ndsu. Would be better
@@jboog7848Lmao, sorry about that 😂
@@julianrosas9134Sadly you’re probably right. Not really any conference that makes sense geographically.
@@julianrosas9134 MVFC should move to FBS. Drop a couple worse teams and then add a couple of Montana teams.
I'm from the twin cities but I'm going to school in Wahpeton ND and this gave me a better understanding as to why they're so popular around here
I started grad school at SDSU in 2012. It’s crazy I got to watch all of these kids and the growth of the FCS in recent years.
My very first college football game was in December of 1990 when the North Dakota St Bison beat the Crimson Hawks of Indiana University (Pa) 51 - 11. This was the national championship game that was played here in my hometown, and played on the campus of my high school. I got to meet alot of players from division 2 teams that squared off in the title game. Also the finalists for the Harlon Hill trophy (The D2's version of the Heisman trophy) would come visit schools around the Shoals area here in northwest Alabama. I had an opportunity to go to the game in 1988 when the Bison beat South Dakota, but I didn't get to because I had just gotten out of the hospital due to being asthmatic. I'm 45 now and I can remember those games really well. Especially when my hometown UNA Lions won 3 straight, and was the state of Alabama's 4th straight D2 national championship. When North Dakota St beat North Alabama in McAllen, Texas in 1985 for the D2 title, and then the game moved here to Florence. I believe that era of D2 football owe alot to these 2 schools. A few other universities to give credit to are Northwest Missouri St and Grand Valley St. I got to go to every D2 title game From 1990 - 1999. And it seemed to gain more national recognition each year it seemed. And if I'm not mistaken, UNA is still the only D2 program to visit the White House as a guest of the President and as a national championship program. Now the NDSU Bison, the UNA Lions, an many other great D2 programs are making that push to become part of the new era of college football. And I hope they all do! I don't believe that we will ever see our beloved D2 teams win the big time national championship games that Bama, Ohio St, USC, LSU, Texas, Florida St, Florida , Oklahoma, Nebraska, Notre Dame, or Michigan has won. But I think it's possible we could see our programs become powerhouses when we see the big boys finally break away from the entire NCAA, and form what basically is going to be a draft development league. With everything that the NFL does, with some differences as it pertains to traditions, amount of games, and which bowl games become part of it. As far as the G5/FCS programs go. I believe we will see these teams take over what the power 5 built. UNA moved to the FCS as an independent in 2018. They officially were given full FCS membership status this past off season. And during these past 5 years, all I heard was how horrible it was for UNA to make the move to D1. Was told that it would destroy their athletic programs, would push fans away, etc. They couldn't have been further from the truth! As I've not only seen these programs sports attendance increase, but also school enrollment. UNA had 4,000 - 5,000 students 10 years ago. Today they are over 10,000. I'm sure the same can be said for NDSU. Sorry such a long comment, but wanted to give my thoughts on how my first college football game ever was when I watched the Bison here in Florence. And as a lifelong college sports junkie, and a die hard Alabama fan. It's an honor to have had a storied football program such as NDSU, as part of my college football experience. #FightOnBison #RoarLions #RollTide
I was a freshman at NDSU in '90, so got to see some great games outside at Dacotah Field. They moved indoors to the Fargodome in '93, and I was at that game as watched our hopes die in a win over Pittsburg State of Kansas (another dominate DII team) when Arden Beachy's knee bent backwards. But that '90 team was loaded with talent. Chris Simdorn won the Harlan Hill trophy. Phil Hansen got drafted by the Buffalo Bills. I knew a couple of people on the '91 team, but knew quite a few from the '93 team.
NDSU class of '86. It was great to get this update. I was there when the Thundering Herd was rolling up Division II every year.
Hadn't really paid any attention to what was going on since.
Go Bison!
After watching the video I had to come back and say it was great. Even though you’re a bison fan. I would love a break down of the Dakota marker games over this time period.
Even though I moved from SD I always make sure to tune in for that game and here’s to hoping game day comes back again!
I remember being up late and watching the Arizona NDSU game I beleive in 2021. Was one of the most entertaining games to watch and even tho they lost I always love to watch them play
As a SDSU fan this was a really cool video, I think it would be awesome to see a video about our rise to the top from the perspective of an NDSU fan
This is very well done! Go Bison!
Dave Osborne from Cando, ND and Jim Kleinsasser from Carrington, ND had 12 and 13 year NFL careers respectively.
North Dakota kids have played college in state and gone on to the NFL for a long time.
Trey Lance vs. Ben Denucci is an FCS must watch for me lmao
Great video man.
W vid and love too see it
great video man
Very well done
Thanks man, I actually watched your why did they leave video 4 days ago😂
Shoutout to Billy Turner that man is a dawg
Lance Dunn was my teammate in highschool great person even better football players so happy for him
Good video. Had to sub
Would love to see them play. Auburn or Minnesota
Cordell volson used to live 30 minutes from me and goes to some of our basketball games
As a SHSU alumni i hated those ndsu teams. It was so good to beat them in 2020
There have been 11 players drafted to nfl out of ndsu. How many from Alabama?
I hated seeing JSU lose the FCS national championship game in the same month I became an alumni. It still stings North Dakota State. It still stings 😭
As a North Dakotan I think the dominance is over or at least stalled for a bit.
Then you're just a fair weather fan.
@@11C1P that’s your opinion.
Can only be so dominant for so long till other school eventually start catching up. Still, i dont think we will EVER see a run like this ever again at the FCS level. One of the greatest dynasties in all sports.
Well, we had a down year in '23, losing in the semi-finals in OT. Pretty much any other school in the nation would consider THAT a great season. But we've been spoiled for so many decades now it's sometimes hard to see just how good we've had it. Since 1964 NDSU has played for a National Championship in 1/3 of its seasons. Not just made the playoffs, but played for the Championship 20 times. They fell in the semi-finals six other times. That's just unreal for most programs.
And it’s all down hill from here 🤘⬇️
Yea South Dakota state is him now
Ndsu won like 9 chips in 12 years. NO FCS team will ever be on their level when they were on top. One championship doesnt mean youre the new NDSU, gotta have a similar run like them, which no other team will do.
@@unknowntrademark9992back to back and sdsu ain’t stopping any time soon lol
Lets see@@nb8982

Do me a favor and remember this comment when you hit 100k subscribers. I knew from the opening 10 seconds this was going to be good.
I appreciate that, thanks
Cant believe UND is gonna beat them in football this Saturday
UND did in fact beat them this Saturday
yessir @@walkingtheline3379
@SSC_Juicy_JaxonProdz A lot of the older NDSU fans (pre dynasty) have seen this coming. In fact, I'm surprised this hasn't happened sooner. I'm okay if SDSU wins a few championships, they deserve it. I just want it to be that there is good parity between all the Dakota schools.
Aaaaand their dynasty has been ended by SDSU, GO JACKS!!!

Baba Booey to Y'all
It's unfortunate that NDSU AD Matt Larsen refuses to make any real effort to move up to FBS.
Shows that you don't understand NDSU's culture and objective...
NDSU has no interest in playing for the annual "No one gives a f*ck bowl" they want to play for championships.
And what's the ONLY way they can play for championships at the FBS level? By being INVITED to a power 5 conference since the power 5 is making it almost physically impossible for G5 to even make a case for being ranked in the top 4. Cincinnati almost missed out on a top 4 ranking BEFORE the power 5 schools decided to form super conferences...
So how can NDSU make the FBS playoffs if they aren't in a big media market and won't get a power 5 invite? The ONLY way is if the FBS playoffs expand to 16 or 24 teams. But does the playoff committee want to do that? So far no.
The ONLY way I see NDSU even making an attempt to move up is if they hear rumblings of the playoffs expanding to 16 or 24 teams when would give NDSU a chance to make the playoffs from a G5 conference.
But I did hear that NDSU is already trying to expand their current stadium seating with a building upgrade, so it does appear like they are headed in the direction of at least attempting to be ready for a move up if the right opportunity presents itself.
I heard that NDSU already shot down multiple G5 invites over the last few years. NDSU doesn't need the G5, the G5 needs NDSU
@@paidtourist6563 LMAO. You don't understand how poor FCS football has become. All the other big names have moved up, apparently they don't have a problem playing bowl games. Quit making excuses. NDSU has not turned down G5 offers, Larsen would take an invite, the problem is, he's too damned lazy to make an effort to pursue one. He thinks conferences will come to him, but that's not how it works. The AD needs to keep in constant contact with conferences and work out a deal, any deal. And the AD also needs to keep the donors informed so they are on board with a move up.
Larsen thinks the only person who needs to know is himself, and that's why many, many donors have stopped giving to NDSU. Since Larsen won't make an effort, why should anyone make an effort to give money??? Good luck getting people to come to the FargoDome to see teams like Murray State and Indiana State, because that's all that will be left in FCS in a couple years.
@@GermanShepherd1983 The Mountain West is perfect for them
@@keithharper1470yeah, a little eastern for the MWC but it can work. After all, we used to have Idaho in the Sun Belt for football.
@@GermanShepherd1983Not sure what your personal gripe is with Larson, but it’s clear that’s what is going on here.
The problem is with geography. Mountain West is the only conference team that would make sense, and the closest school is 500 miles away, second closest is like 850. Big 12 or big ten doesn’t want them
Trey Lance is also the most spectacularly overdrafted player NDSU has ever had, and likely will EVER have. He should have transferred to a D1 FBS school for a year (if the portal existed back then he likely would have, of course, but he still should have done it and been patient). He and whoever he was listening to saw the $$$$, and the 49ers GM should have lost his job for that. He could still become a good NFL QB in a few years, and he was traded to a good place for him to be, so there is still genuine hope for his career, but he has proven that he should never have been drafted above the 5th or 6th round. Brock Purdy of course is another story, so wildly underdrafted, but even so Purdy shouldn’t have gone before the 4th round. Most quarterbacks shouldn't be drafted as high as they are, I'm not picking on Lance at all, I'm "hating" on the stupidity of drafting QBs so high up. They should be at the same level as RBs given how most are a total bust relative to where they are drafted. Drafting any QB and expecting them to immediately be a starter in the NFL is managerial malpractice. They *all* need time.
P.S. I'm also a 🦬 fan, fwiw.
Buck the Fison
They kinda suck this season
They’re still a playoff team
Them in a down year is still winning 2 playoff games and still playing in December😂
@@unknowntrademark9992 it’s not a “down year” it’s the 2 year of their downfall. NDSU shouldn’t have any reaction to still playing in the quarters
They shit this year though
You forgot the amount of d-bags come from the program.
As someone else from North Dakota, I have a hot take. I don’t think Cam Miller is that great of a QB🤷♂️
That's not a hot take. I've said that for the last 2 or 3 years.
Cole should have been starting for the last 2 years
It's Tyler Roehl's fault that the offense is poor.
Horns down und better
If only they’d actually make an effort to move up like every other good fcs program does
No invite means no move
You can’t “make an effort” to move up, you need to get invited.
@@beebobber546 you can hone conferences for an invite just like everyone else was doing but NDSU is completely content with not doing that
Pretty unfeasible for NDSU to move up considering they are like 400 miles away from the nearest FBS team
Great video but can't stand the "bababooie" thing every time you announce the year. Had to stop watching the video halfway through unfortunately. Otherwise awesome video!!
Yeah looking back now, not a great transition piece
bro call me crazy
call me a troll
call me a negative nancy
call me just nancy.
Carson Wentz's stat line doesn't really impress me and ive always thought him to be Overrated and mid asf with a shakey mentql and hes always been injury prone.
5 straight losses to SDSU #GoJacks
I'm really hoping that Hunter Lepke gets the chance to show off for the Cowboys next season. He's my favourite 🦬.
