The USA Today article isn't any better.

"The Bison, who won four national titles in Division II until beginning the move to FCS in 2004, reached last year's quarterfinals."

NDSU won five D-II championship games.

I've talked to friends who live in the Dallas area and they have not seen much mention on the local media about this game. There is another big game in the city Friday night and I'm sure they are also full of Stars and Mavs talk and venting about another lost Cowboys season. This is big for the schools involved, FCS in gengeral, and the northern suburbs but it's not a major event for the Metroplex.

We will still get a decent share of mentions in national media and various local media so I have nothing negative to say about the volume of coverage. It's definitely more than any other FCS program and many of the FBS programs will be getting this week.

They are busy pushing the wasteofaschoolsbudgetbecauseourfanswonttraveltothi sjokeofabowl.com bowl between the MAC and the Sun Belt.
