Kansas - N. Dakota St Open Thread

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) - Ben Woodside let his steely gaze relax for a second, and a sly smile crept across his face. His North Dakota State Bison, in this fifth and most special season, have officially stepped onto the national stage.

They're about to play the defending NCAA champions at a major league stadium just a four-hour drive from their campus on the prairie, and people all over the country who couldn't tell Bismarck from Fargo will be taking long lunches and logging onto their laptops to watch.

So far, so good, for Woodside. It looks like Collins is going to score 70 points this game, though.

i'm probably cluttering the fanposts, but figured there would be enough interest to warrant it's own thread

"I log on to RCT after school, and I see the 228 comments on this thread. I actually immediately panicked, because knowing KC, I figured some other fan from another school (most likely Mizzou) came over and said something stupid. Then, KC freaked out at him, and said something stupid (no offense, KC, but this really wouldn’t be that extraordinary for you to pull off) and then there was mass hysteria. I would have to ban people, and warn people, and it’d be mass chaos." - SlowDance
