It's akin to subtle differences in the English language by locals. 1 mile from where I grew up, they pronounced Schedule as Shedule, and about was pronounced aboot, and the letter Z is pronounced Zed. University of Manitoba calls their sports teams Bisons, similar to how 88 pronounces it.
So the Bizon are kind of like the University of North Dakota Fighting Hawkz, Harvard Crimzon, Oklahoma Zooners, etc. ;)
Don't forget the Utah Falconz....

SuperHornet's Athletics Hall of Fame includes Jacksonville State kicker Ashley Martin, the first girl to score in a Division I football game. She kicked 3 PATs in a 2001 game for J-State.

Being wrong about a topic is called post partisanism - kalm

MAQA - putting the Q into qrazy qanon qult qonspiracy theories since 2015.

It will probably be difficult for MAQA yahoos to overcome the Qult programming but they should give being rational & reasonable a try.

Thank you for your attention to this matter - UNI88

I'm not poking fun at all bizumb fans, just the thin-skinned ones who are anal retentive about how bison is pronounced. It wouldn't be nearly as much fun to poke fun of them if they didn't get their panties in such a bunch. :poke: ;)
NDSU admits, on official university communications/websites, they are the only people to use the Z sound.

They know, and admit, to doing it wrong.

Always?

Because according to official NDSU documentation you didn't start doing it until well after the university was founded
