Per the second part of your post, I'm not sure we'll see anybody else three-peat for a long, long time. Too many variables at the FCS level. Forget this year: You guys were dominant - but in 2011 and 2012 you guys had a lot of close calls during the conference season. If one of those games goes the other way maybe you are not playing so many home playoff games, and anything can happen when you are on the road.

The perfect transfer drops into the laps of a school with a solid program and that player could take that team all the way to the title. Lots of solid teams out there anyway. I'm rambling, I know, but what App. State did and NDSU might do with three-peats is amazing stuff.

I know. But if Mt. Rushmore were on the North Dakota border, that's what it would look like. As for the sign, I could go back and replace it with special version of the NDSU Bison, but I thought the "brought-to-you-by" tag was appropriate.

FRISCO, Texas – Merle Gullekson was around 40 miles down the road Wednesday when he found out he had misplaced an important item at a South Dakota rest stop. Gullekson’s checkbook, which contained four tickets to Saturday’s Division I FCS national title game, fell out of his pocket in the bathroom.
“Someone could have easily thrown that checkbook in the garbage and kept the tickets,” said Dave Artz, who was part of Gullekson’s nine-person travel group of North Dakota State football fans.

People, when are we going to live in a state that is free of the terror that is landslides? I propose a refunding of the " Mountain Removal Project" and a leveling of any hill-like structure located within the state of North Dakota.

I stand corrected.

People, when are we going to live in a state that is free of the terror that is landslides? I propose a refunding of the " Mountain Removal Project" and a leveling of any hill-like structure located within the state of North Dakota.

App's longest streak of playoff appearances is 8 - 2005-2012. They are tied with Eastern Kentucky with the second most playoff appearances all-time with 20. Montana has the most at 22.

I have a spreadsheet (hasn't been updated for this year yet) with a lot of this information, minus the consecutive years part. I'm sure it'll get lost in all the smack, but it's located HERE (https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/pub?hl=en_US&key=0AvHJfK4_Pa8jdGJtWkpvWmRDdnU0STdDV1JRaThqb3c&hl=en_US&gid=9).
This is one of the great traditions that comes from a couple of posters on this site (It was handed down from OL FU to Mountaineer) and I sure hope it does not go away. I also hope you do not abandon this place Mounty. This must continue.

You may have noticed, we don't like each other very much.

True, but that can be said for UM/MSU and several other rivalries. It just carries way too far into the pettiness of it all. It's like having a couple that you like individually over for a party and every little conversation has to turn into some sort of argument over the same old crap you've heard them say a million time before. Then one of them gets stabbed in the chest with a butter knife and the cops have to be called. There comes a point where you just say "better not having them over to the party together anymore...at least as a couple."

clenz used different verbage than I would have but the sentiment around here is very similar to his overall point. Even the vast majority of UND/NDSU fans feel that way from what I've seen.

Your post was just a good launching point for the thought on the matter as it not intended to be directed toward you as I've seen very little of that on your account.xthumbsupx
