Maybe. San Diego has a pretty strong point differential (38-13 vs. 28-17 for the Bison), and the Toreros avenged their only defeat. Villanova, Sam Houston State, James Madison, Richmond and Eastern Washington have all won titles, (although the BearKats won theirs in the NAIA back in the 60’s). So has ancient rival North Dakota, although theirs was in Division 2. The Fighting Sioux would love to be the ones to beat the Bison, more than can be described. So would another old rival, South Dakota State. But the Bison always seem to play their best football of the season in the playoffs. [/QUOTE]
