Most Bison fans hate SDSU because their football team was dirty and their fans vandalize cars.

In case you can't access this site without a subscription: "Perry was engaged with an SDSU offensive lineman on the play he got injured. Near the end of that play, the SDSU player dove down and cut block Perry in the knee area."

Yes that was a long time ago, but some of us are still mad about Drew Pearson pushing off a Vikings defender in the NFL playoff almost 50 years ago and upper-Midwesterners hold sports grudges for a long time.

for myself- i HATE losing to the bison but i have only respect for the school the athletic program and the football program. most of the time if they are not playing the jacks i find myself cheering for them because i respect the way that they do things more than i respect the way a lot of other programs do things.
also i have always appreciated that the two schools made the move together when none of the other ncc schools had the wisdom or foresight to see that D2 was going to get watered down and that it was the smart move to make, and they definitely helped each other to survive a difficult process when everyone else around them tried to make it harder.
lastly, it is better for the conference to have them win
