I, personally, don't get some of the Bison hate on here. To me, I really hope they win. NDSU plays hard, they have a bunch of Minnesota kids who, with he exception of Woodside, got virtually zero attention from the Gophers. They are on the verge of getting into the NCAA tournament in their first year of eligibility.
To me, that's a cool story.
And back in the day when NDSU was in the NCC, there was little question that the Gophers were the No. 1 Division I team in Fargo-Moorhead.
I root for schools like NDSU and Northern Iowa. Clearly not every Minnesota kid can play for the Gophers. I root for the teams that have a bunch of the next level of MN players.
Go Bison.
