We don't travel well for anything other than football.

Does hunting and fishing count as a sport in this discussion?

Bison fans can't bother to drive 4 hours and yet they are going to fill the attendance void left by WSU? Fargo is a metro area of 250,000 and you can't get 3,000 to a game on a nightly basis? Your a FB school and always be a FB school. Which is why you have no shot at the MVC, unless SDSU gets an invite and take you along for the ride.
Oh, and to the poster who wants NDSU, UNI and ISUr in the MAC. NDSU? Yes, you could do it. UNI, ISUr? Neither have the money or support to pull off such a move.

Nobody in the Summit could replace that. The conference's best schools right now in the south Dakota schools can't even average 3,000 fans. NDSU is the only school in the Summit averaging over 3,000 fans a game.

Can we all stop pretending that strength of a program and relevance matters to joining a bigger conference.
Re: Poll: XDSU's to the MVC or stay in the Summit
SDSU needs to become more prestige and do more in the NCAA tournament(like win a game) so it would make the 2 XDSU's more attractive to the MVC. Also being nothing but a 14, 15 or 16 seed is embarrassing if you call yourself a bball school
Until then, theyre nothing but a womens college who have a total of 2 playoff wins in their football history.
Id rather hold hands with UND to the MVC. At least their program produces NHL talent on a yearly basis.

Good question. We sell out in Football every game. SDSU can't even get 3,000 fans to their home games. NDSU draws better than SDSU.

Didn't NDSU average over 4k for conference games? There was 5k at the Rabbit game and I didn't see a lot of Rabbits there supplementing the attendance like Bison fans supplement for certain football games a few hours south.
Maybe we should have the Summit tournament in Fargo lets see how many SDSU fans take 3 days off work and book 4 nights of hotel rooms.
