    Re: A new and better FBS thread

    Is there an option that gets the MVFC as a whole to become FBS? I know some here desperately want to leave behind most of those schools but that might end up being the only path. I too fear that...

    I guess we can close this thread now.

    Re: A new and better FBS thread

    Adjacent to your point is the fact that the MAC is sitting right there, basically in our footprint (yeah, a stretch but not by as much as elsewhere) and once we join with SDSU, we'll help the...

    I just want to go on record to say that I had nothing to do with this.

    Re: A new and better FBS thread

    It wasn't too long ago that the big scuttlebutt was that Texas and Oklahoma were heading to the PAC12 and that it'd be the end of the Big12.

    I wonder how long it will take the B1G to kick out...

    Re: A new and better FBS thread

    If the PAC4 teams join the MWC (not merge but leave PAC4 and join MWC and evade the Comcast thing), NDSU's best FBS options become MAC or AAC.

    If the PAC4 schools decide to try to stick it out,...

    Florida State and Clemson won't be in the ACC by week's end, though.

    I think that there's a version of the portal that might not be obvious but within which the Bison may already currently participate, and may actually further exploit with an FBS upgrade. A...

    No


    No. Not sure how to resolve that. I think Entz would do okay but I just don't think he's worthy of an FBS $alary just yet. I'm certain his staff is not...other than Kramer. That guy should...

    As soon as we make the move, they'll make a big show of not scheduling games with NDSU, then after a few years will start bitching about how NDSU won't play them anymore...

    Re: A new and better FBS thread

    For selfish reasons, I'd love the Bison in the MWC given the easy flights and potentially some road trips to away games for me.

    That said, I don't think this recruiting thing can be overstated....

    Re: A new and better FBS thread

    Viewership even suffers here in Pacific Time. It's very common for games to be still going by midnight and a lot of people have tuned out by then.

    (Admittedly, I don't have the numbers to back...

    I think folks here vastly underestimate the harm that the late games will do to attendance, TV/streaming viewership, and the brand overall.

    Not sure why that would be the case. FWIW - the PAC12 school that looks more like the B10 would be Washington when you look at both the academic and athletic profiles.

    Re: A new and better FBS thread

    I know we're splitting hares here but I seriously doubt it. Fargo is much more "all in" for NDSU than SF is for either of the SD schools. A major part of that is that NDSU is actually IN Fargo and it...

    There are certain people for whom a move to FBS is about the prestige and visibility of the program. As much as I'd personally love the Bison joining the MWC because of the proximity to me and my...
