Buttfbs!!!!
Re: A new and better FBS thread
Looking at MAC schedules over the years, true home games against P5 programs are not all that easy to find. More often than not, the home game for the MAC program is at some neutral site (ie Iowa playing NIU at Soldier Field). Western Michigan does host Michigan State next season. Short trip/same state. Any bets on the Spartan's appetite to travel to Fargo?

NDSU at New Vikings stadium 1 game a year would be bad ass!!
NDSU vs Kansas State at TCF Sept 7 2019 Would be EPIC!! (Buyout that date)
And braves I said. With a brand new stadium we egg the bigger names, but 22,500 dome gets us Colorado st San Diego st Wyoming Air Force

When that happens it'll help, plus the new SHAC will fill up every night.
going FBS would help the basketball program tremendously!
Basketball is shooting itself in the foot because the consistency is not there yet. Once every five years of competing is not compelling enough to create a wave of ticket sales. Jump out 10-2 this year and people will start believing. Otherwise, they will sit back and wait for the next big thing and only stick their toes in to see if the water is warm enough yet. One other fair plays in this as well. Will they be like last year when the training wheels were taken off and the offense had more flow and was more fun to watch or do we go back to two years ago where it is deliberately milking the shot clock every possession. The problem with basketball isn't just about winning and losing, it is also no idea what product anyone is looking at.
Identity, consistency, and a high potential for winning is what will bring basketball into its own with a growing fanbase.

going to need more than that, especially if you're thinking of every year having an "interesting" game.

Don't they still play the likes of Crookston and Minot? That's has to get the fans pumped.

Just like the Gophers who play MN Duluth and Wisconsin who plays WX Parkside.

To think that every year to the dance is attainable is unrealistic goal as a midmajor

Good mid major teams should have the hope for it at least
