Money money money money, money! (U know the tune)-------i dont see anyway moving half of the fbs teams down a level makes anybody MORE money, if that did ever happen I'd say most of them would just drop football at that point

That would never happen. Fans of the teams would not travel to 3 or 4 different locations on a playoff run. It's hard enough now with a difference championship game and a bowl game or 2 playoff games.
If the playoffs expand much further they are going to have to go to hosted sites for the first couple rounds. Once that happens the bowls will go away. The teams that don't make an expanded playoff beyond 8 teams will see even less value in bowl games and the main bowls will not host the 3rd or 4th place teams from a conference.

Oh, I know it will never happen but I don't necessarily buy that it wouldn't happen because of travel.
Most lower-mid tier bowls are horribly attended now anyway. This would never happen because it would wreck the traditional system of a bowl game being the season finale and it would cut the opportunities for about 40 teams to get their warm fuzzies by competing in a bowl game for getting their 6 wins or more.
If the playoffs are ever expanded I'd agree that it's far more likely to be campus sites hosting in the expanded rounds than more neutral site bowl games being rolled into it.
Re: NDSU American Athletic Conference?
Let's give this discussion a rest PLEASE! Your opinions are all respected. But let us not distract the team and players from their goal of a championship and a consecutive win record! Let's enjoy it now and be quiet so it can happen. You are all intelligent and no harms no fouls hopefully between any of you. Enjoy your TEAM, THE MIGHTY BISON, the power of the Herd is the BISON and the Power of the Bison is the Herd!!!! That means all of us!

I’m in on this. What a great, yet unexpected year. I follow other FCS message boards, and those that are in or close to in on playoffs are pumped and excited.
The really only downer threads here are from the FBS now/Fatigue posters, and we know what who geniuses of those threads is. No more clicks/replies to them please

Re: NDSU American Athletic Conference?
I don't see guns to anyone heads to
A) read a thread where an article had NDSU on it
B) reply to a thread.
NDSU is mentioned in this article.
the fatigue thread is about lack of buzz w NDSU
FBS better thread is strictly for FBS.
