    Given the state of the football program, I seriously doubt very many in Moscow would even realize that Idaho was in the PCC (the precursor to the Pac10/12) conference, ever. Many knew the rumors that they could have gone, but some X conspired to not let them (and to me, it makes zero sense to have two so close together in a rather non populated part of the country). BTW, they were co-champions... but a championship is a championship.

          Of all the football games this weekend, North Dakota St-James Madison in Texas is not the one I expected to have snow on the field.

          Ok, I don't expect it in the 49ers game either.

              North Texas gets a lot of snow, or used to before we pegged the thermostat.

                Wow, great game. NDSU wins 28-20 with an interception on the goal line with two seconds left. Becomes the first 16-0 team since 1894.

                That makes it 8 of 9 for the Bison, 128-8 during that span. Where does this rank in the all-time college dynasties?

                UCLA basketball had 10 in 12 from 1963-1975 with a record of 335-22.
                Iowa wrestling had 20 in 26 from 1975-2000.
                Oklahoma football had a 107-8 record and three titles from 1948-1958 (seems like they should have more here).
                In the age of parity, Alabama's run with Saban is certainly in contention.

                There are the women's dynasties: UNC soccer, Tennessee and UConn basketball, Minnesota hockey.

                My favorite dynasty stat is Kalamazoo College won the MIAA conference tennis championship every year from 1933-2012. That streak is sort of still ongoing, as they still have never finished below first, but due to a financial aid scandal they had to vacate 2013-2016.

                  Yikes.

                  Amos Alonzo Stagg's University of Chicago Maroons played 22 games that season.

                    Fun fact: it costs more to go to Kalamazoo than Harvard.

                      I think Carson Wentz' class won more NTs (4) than they lost games (3). Icehawk would know; he's CW's uncle.

                        Good lord, this stat:

                        North Dakota State's QB Trey Lance finishes the season with almost 2,800 passing yards, 1100 rushing yards, 42 total touchdowns and 0 interceptions.

                        He's a freshman.

                          Whew. I had a fairly substantial bet on the Bison as a +1.5 (-110) underdog from about a week-and-a-half ago. Talk about easy money.

                                Where would they go? If joined the MAC it would literally double the area of the conference. The MW would also have a huge travel budget. Plus they’re capped at about 15k or whatever the Fargo Dome has. Probably the only chance they move up is it the MVFC or Big Sky decides to move up as a conference.
