Would prefer Saturday for tailgating.
For the quarters the Saturday 11AM games is the #1 spot since it's on ESPN rather than ESPN2. For the semis it seems like Friday night has usually been the preferred time slot for the "bigger draw" but the Saturday semi used to be on ESPNU so maybe that changes now??? In 2019 both semis were on Saturday but NDSU/Montana St got the ESPN2 slot and JMU/Weber St got the ESPNU slot.

We aren't playing the games so we can look ahead as far as we want to. :)

JMU game on friday night would be the best FCS atmosphere game since NDSU/JMU title games, SDSU/NDSU in brookings 2019, SDSU/NDSU playoffs 18, Montana/NDSU in 15.
Montana would be lame as we all know we'd win by 20+.
I think playing montana would be a better atmosphere and a better game tbh

Montana or JMU, toss up really for my level of interest.

Gimme the Ducks so Purple comes back running his mouth again........ until we give them the same send off we sent Georgia Southern and he disappears forever.

I don't want any of these FBS bound schools to get to the semis (if they could miss the quarters that would be great too)... they don't deserve any recognition

Exactly, bring on Montana!
I like the sound of NDSU vs Montana on ESPN, and it should bring good ratings. Also still think they'd make a great partner to join a conference like MWC.

I won't shed a tear if JMU doesn't make it to Fargo. But I feel we need to play Sam Houston again, can't let them leaving on a winning note against us.

JMU wouldn't admit to leaving on a losing note to NDSU... they just "ran out of time" in the FCS.
