Re: For the FBS or bust crowd.......
Why would p5 teams stop playing teams that would help their strength of schedule?
Boise had no problems scheduling Oregon va tech Georgia etc etc when they burst onto the scene
I think you're nuts to think playing MAC level teams is the same as playing YSU, UNI, USD etc.

YOu really think p5 teams are more willing to lose to us if we were FBS/g5? vs being FCS? They want cupcakes or ranked P5 opponents for those games.
I get what you dropping but not so sure I am 1100& agreeing on this one... to a point but it helps a lot that you are FBS and Not FCS
Re: For the FBS or bust crowd.......
I don't think scheduling games against the P5 will be a problem if we were FBS, home games maybe but road money games no way.

No need to add a red herring to the argument.

Of course not. It’s nearly as absurd a notion as assessing the realness of another’s fandom.

Doesn't losing to a team with a lower ranking hurt your strength of schedule?
I'm nuts? Look at the sagarin conference ratings. If I'm reading them right mvfc is right between the Mac west and east.

everything in this conversation doesnt have to be that NDSU comes out on the winning end of these games.
Id be interested to know what MVFCs score is when you remove NDSU

Well that's the other side of my argument. The opposite is we actually are a cupcake and get rolled by these teams and they keep inviting us back. That sounds fun.

I dont think NDSU would ever be considered a cupcake unless things go completely upside down. IF they were FBS, theyd be in the solid 25-50 range. So a top 30 win potentially would benefit some P5 teams more than their own conference mates.
