NDSU/FCS would go on without playoffs

[El_Chapo]

if the NCAA pulls out today of NCAA championships today.......

NDSU and FCS teams can still go ahead playing their conference games and FBS games.

In fact, fcs teams might take on more than 1 or 2 FBS games as they wont need to worry about playoff or records.


FCS teams still willing to play can still come together as a group and contact Frisco about a 4 or 8 team championship bowl series with 4 quarters, 2 semifinals and 1 title game in Frisco

maybe have the semifinals in a fun neutral site

With no contracts in place to honor (other than Oregon) or fans in the stands, an added FBS game is not going to pay squat to play and FCS team in 2020. And, teams will only travel by bus . . . so why would an FBS game even be discussed? The only drivable games would be TC, Madison, Lincoln, ICity, or Ames. The B1G isn't going to play you. Not worth your breath on this Chap.

[HerdBot]

I agree. Nothing is stopping the top teams from doing the same thing the FBS does. We could make a BCS style bowl system. We all know their are only a handful of contenders anyways

[El_Chapo]

Southland will play NO MATTER WHAT

MVFC should come out and say that too

[oldmantutters]

Fuck a regular season. Let's find 64 FCS teams willing to participate in March Madness style tournament. Shit-ass schools like UND can hang a banner as a 2020 FCS playoff participant. We can get this regionalized, quarantine the final 4 for a couple weeks at the end. It'll be sweet and the FBS will be jealous.

[NDSUBowler]

Even though it's a pipe dream, I'd LOVE something like that, Chapo.

Could make it shorter if needed

World Cup style!

Say 40 teams opt in, do 8 5-team groups. Sort by Sag Ratings in 2019 into 5 pots of 8 teams each, 1 team from each pot randomly drawn into a group and each team gets 2 home 2 away games. At end of 4 games, group winner gets bye, 2nd place gets home game vs random 3rd place. 24 team playoff from there on in

[Rockbear99]

They should do this for Hockey too. Oh wait I dont think they have 64 teams do they. lol

An FBS game would be a significant program expense. No FBS team that can't have fans is going to give NDSU money to come into their house and beat them.

Sounded like they will but “lowball”. NDSU cant afford to fly the team etc without a decent payout.

Big teams not able to pay because of no fans smells like BS with TV contracts to fill.

NDSU saves the cost playing them at home. If could get some TV payout then offer to share some revenue and a *likely* [emoji12] D1 win for the opponent.

What program who is not making money off fan revenue at the game is going to pay a formidable payout to bring NDSU in and lose? No program is going to accrue more football expenses going to Fargo to play and likely lose. People aren't thinking about this situation rationally.

The likelyhood of a season, playoff, and championship in the spring is questionable at best.

If an independant NDSU with the help of ESPN and FS1 (CBS/Fox/ABC?) could coordinate 3+ p5 games- 2 at home and 3+ FCS/G5 to maintain some kind of a season and a bit of normalcy? I’d be on board. Do it without NCAA like the big boys. Show them NDSU is one of them.

This is the time to do it. TV should be screaming for games, but of course the pro ratings have been junk- for other reasons.

Show the country a team (with the best QB and LT in the country) that just wants to play football- win or loose, and keep the politics out of it. The ratings will be there.

Of course this would require a lot of confidence.

Yep- that would be the trick of working an independant TV contract or two or three to get enough revenue to pay a teams expense. Get some teams that should be confident playing NDSU for a win.

There is a reason ABC/ESPN shows NDSU on their ESPN3 commercials. Outside UFC i would guess NDSU is one their biggest draws.

This is such BS on ADML's part. If we could have scheduled a P5 and were paid enough to completely cover travel expenses and testing protocals we should have taken it! This reeks of small time thinking. There is no chance football will be played in the spring. It's not going to logistically work for most Midwestern and northern schools.

1) Are you saying there was an offer similar to what you are insinuating on the tab;e? Because I am pretty sure there wasn't. Any P5 game that was even thought of by both sides basically was a direct result of fiscal loss for the visiting team.
2) Do you stand with the opinion that Spring football is not going to happen and you want to play this fall? You would blow a year of eligibility forthe players this year for something like 6-7 meaningless games and no championship opportunity?

Eligibility will be gone whether we play or not thanks to the 5 year clock rule so getting in 6-7 games is significantly better than 0. Missouri State and SIU who were recently scheduled to play OU and KU respectively in week 1 are both getting paid 300,000. That's half of what we signed up for in Oregon but is probably pretty damn close to what ADML turned down.

The clock stopped for spring athletes last year, the NCAA is going to do the same for fall athletes as well if there is no season. There is no lost season of eligibility.

I don't believe any team is going to pay NDSU anything close to what they would pay MSU and SIU. Nothing close whatsoever.

[AKBison]

Why not? NDSU brings ten times the eye balls to tv compared to to SIU or MSU.

When I first heard about the postponement of the MVFC, the explanation I heard was that there weren't going to be enough conferences playing in order to have an FCS national championship. So what? It's not like the quality of FCS football is equally distributed throughout the conferences. The FCS playoff is pretty much a MVFC tournament with a few Jimmies added in. If the MVFC were to play its season in the fall, just declare the conference winner as the national champion. The only difference from previous years would be more free weekends this year in December and January.

You're not wrong. NCAA is just delaying the inevitable because of the financial impact it will have. There's no way they could work a season on so many levels. The kids want to play but they want the NCAA to "guarantee their safety against the Coronavirus". The NCAA can't do that. Nobody can do that. If they try to move on with the season, MLB shows us they won't have enough teams to finish out the season who can play anyways. Players will either be in the hospital with the virus, have the virus, be quarantined recovering from the virus at home, or be quarantined from exposure. I can't believe people are this stupid where they don't understand that.

[NDSU92]

To me it’s pretty obvious that the NCAA was told by the P5 that they weren’t allowed to cancel football. I’m sure it was “if you cancel, we’re creating our own org”. Since the NCAA couldn’t forcibly cancel all non-FBS football this fall they had to “leave it up to each division”. Which is when you saw D2 and D3 cancel immediately and FCS didn’t last long after. The sad part is that it shouldn’t have taken 5 months for them to come out with what they call a plan.

Read the interview with Choate at Montana State. Football in the spring wouldn't work like it can for other other fall sports and isn't fair to the players. We should try and go this fall and if doesn't work because infections get out of hand then kill it off until next year.

Isn’t the biggest value of being in a conference:

1. Playing games (consistent rivalries etc)?

2. Getting a nice contract on tv group negotiated and shared revenue to prop all up) for playing those games?

If the conference is not allowing the games, not sure how tv payout will look... or any other additional revenue from conference games vs. independent.

But the finger wagging is another nice benefit.

Three FBS road games, gotta think the seniors would take that in a heartbeat considering the outlook right now. Play one game a month, go 2-1 and maybe just maybe we could petition the NCAA to allow us to play a bowl game if the Covid situation let's up...Yes it's all doubtful but let's dream big and would send the seniors and Trey out in style.

I like your style

Sign me up for the 3 FBS games. This 2020 team is possibly one of the greatest Bison rosters ever. Would be nice to see them line up against "the big boys" & see how they do. I believe they can compete & then some
