Seriously, jc, you are proud of a Top 25 ranking in 2012? The only way that could have happened in a 6-7 season, is to have been ranked after a rare and elusive 3 game win streak to start the season, correct? Then you flamed out like bottom feeders do. But hey, at least you didn't finish last.
You realize if NDSU jumped to the Big 12 today they would be true "bottom feeders"
But hey, they say ignorance is bliss, so who am I to tell you to not keep living in your fantasy world (which appears to be your mommy's basement)
