A new and better FBS thread

Fuck geography. (strawman)

so if NDSU is in MWC. San Diego State flies to Wyoming 1 time every 2 years.

So they fly 1-1.5 fucking extra hour to Fargo 1 time every 2 years. big fucking deal.

we'd play better teams , we'd have 2-3 HUGE OOC games, we wouldn't have to worry about selling tickets for 2 shit playoff games & 2 shit ooc games every year. our recruiting would expand, our NDSU brand would expand, the university would be seen at a higher level.

so many more positives going FBS. than staying put.

It’s not NDSU that cares about the geography it’s the conferences that care. STRAWMAN ALERT!!!!

Eh.... low level FBS is probably more appealing than FCS at this point. Outside of the Missouri Valley... there are like two or three interesting teams effective next fall.

So....as i've stated everywhere....damned if you do damned if you don't. Geography rules college athletics it's really not that hard to figure out.

The west doesn't have a G5 conference, a western equivalent to the MAC.

So build it.

There's the path to FBS.

strawman

an intentionally misrepresented proposition that is set up because it is easier to defeat than an opponent's real argument.

The most enticing scenario to me is the Dakota Schools and Montana schools in some sort of FBS conference. But you better duck if you mention that because NDSU is apparently above and beyond those institutions. I have no idea how realistic that is.....

That would be great but the Montana schools have no ambition to be anything but what they are. They are the Delaware's of the west.

At this point that scenario is as likely as MAC or MWC. Thought we could just make shit up around here.
