    Re: A new and better FBS thread

    ESPN article has NDSU a possible fit in Big 12--down the road. However, the big problem is the stadium. IF it is 80 elite teams vs. "have nots," we cannot be a viable option in the top 80 until or...

    Everybody assumes that the G5 will break from the P5. I don't think that is a given. Under the current system, the rich get richer, but the have nots are still getting more TV revenue than they...

    80% of the teams in the power conferences HAVE NO CHANCE OF WINNING A NATIONAL TITLE. Obviously, that is not the standard for being in DI because, if it was, NDSU would have NEVER left DII.

    Why should he stop since he is right? I just watched the Utah State Wyoming game on ESPN 2. That could be NDSU in 2 years.

    Zero for NDSU. Not every game is on Tuesday/Wednesday. NDSU cannot sell 19,300 for a nationally televised game on a Tuesday? You think that lightly of our growing fan base?

    WHEN NDSU WON ITS FIRST NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP, how prominent was Boise State in football? Idaho is not a hotbed for football or recruiting.
