I have to think that there would be more interest in the FCS championship game if they devote some significant effort to promote it. You are describing the core fan base. However, TV profits are made in the margins by grabbing additional viewers.

I doubt they would get much bang for their buck if they did excessive promoting. It may move the needle some but not enough to make the time and effort to promote it. That would be money for ABC/ESPN in advertising revenue and they have a pretty good pulse on what their market will be.

It’s also a shame one (#JamesMadison) is leaving for the FBS and the other (#NDSU) desperately wants to follow them giving up a terrific playoff and rivalry for the “honor” of playing worthless bowl games in Detroit and Shreveport.

Friday nights atmosphere will be better than any bowl NDSU would ever achieve at FBS....except for those "you're telling me there's a chance" fans.

NDSU fans would bring 25,000 to a Las Vegas Bowl or Arizona bowl in December with all the snowbirds and alums... hahaha nice try

Who would we play? Troy, Southern Miss, North TX, Memphis, South Florida? That's the only marquee programs I can think of.

I’m hoping Friday night’s atmosphere is as good as previous semifinal games. It should be. That being said, these are the type of statements that are ridiculous. Most of us on here have attended very few, if any, bowl games. The reality is that there are some really great bowl game atmospheres and destinations. I have friends who are big gopher fans. They’ve traveled to many of the recent bowl games in the kill and fleck era. They have really enjoyed themselves. They typically haven’t been playing in the marquee bowls. I think the bowls that NDSU would/could achieve would create experiences very similar to Frisco, just in more varied locations.
