Maybe this has already been posted (sorry if it has), but I just noticed that THE FCS ACTUALLY HAS A PREGAME SHOW! Don't remember seeing that in past years, but I could be wrong...

ESPN News at 10:30 Central next Saturday, right before the game.

You're probably right, even though the description says "A look at the two teams to compete for the FCS title"...

Watched it last year... the host was that well known FCS "expert" Jay Walker -- it totally focused was on the FCS playoffs. Was it "must watch TV?" NO... but it was ok

I probably shouldn't complain that they are actually making an effort, but why not put it on the same channel as the game? And, please, no Jay Walker... he might talk about the FCS, but he somehow always turns it into a conversation about HBCU schools.

If I remember corrrectly he already picked the field over NDSU during the Selection Sunday show. Will be interesting to see if he wants to hedge now.

He's a coward if he does.

I thought it was on the deuce this year (same network as the game itself)? Last year it was on ESPNEWS if I recall correctly.

Migration? More like the world’s largest Scandinavian invasion since the age of the vikings.

According to the program guide, it's on ESPNEWS... they are leading into our game with "NFL Championship Chase" on the deuce.

It looks as if we don't have to worry about some worthless college basketball game running long again and pre-empting the start of the championship game on ESPN2...they are airing a one-hour NFL Wild Card Weekend preview show running from 10:00 am until 11:00 am. The FCS Championship Preview show is on ESPNU from 10:30 to 11:00 am. That will no doubt be packed with about five minutes of FCS Championship talk and around 25 minutes of the Alabama-Clemson game, but at least they have something.

Well, coward rhymes with Howard, where he played college football, and since you brought up the NFL, did you know he played in the league? Also, he played in the league.

Aargh ... this. I would be surprised if during the half-time show of the FCS Championship, ESPN's announcers say anything about FCS football other than passing comments. Even in the playoff games, ESPN programmed talk about FBS football. Not right in my opinion. There is plenty of FCS football, and some of the great players to come out of FCS, to talk about. ESPN is largely an insult to FCS football. The NCAA could fix this.
