Huge throng. I have a seat but am watching from standing room section because i have a better view. They cant keep up with people in concession lines.

Nice. What's the ratio of Bison fans to Eagle fans? I don't see much red on the broadcast, but they don't show much of the "home" side of the stadium, so I can't really tell.

[sealhall74]

I would say about 2500 eagle fans.

38-24, NDSU wins. Their 7th Championship in the last 8 years.
