I am an alumni and avid fan of a DII school who at this point you could call their football program a dynasty. They have not missed the playoffs since 1998 when they won their first national title.

Oh and it is a real playoff system unlike that joke they call a playoff in the BCS division. Every week is do or die for these teams if they are winning.

but considering that we didn't have a football team from 1950-2013 anything is a reason to celebrate. We only have one senior on the team and next year their will be a large crew of returning juniors and seniors. We are 2-7 for the year, but five of the losses were by less than ten points so there is some hope for the team.

That receiver can certainly run too!
