I think we need to ask more from FBS teams. 750k minimum. Were a better draw than much of the G5 .
And yes, we need to up the buyouts.

Gene Taylor made it easy for Matt with the nice sized buy out
Start at zero. Get 200k then pay 300k. Pay 100k cost for a game on espn vs a quality team. Sweet deal.
It will be here for sure. More than likely Eastern Washington or Illinois State. We've been speculating this game for a long time
If it's not a big dog like Musburger, I like Sharrif since he knows everything Bison
The 25 bucks a ticket is way low
I pay 40 per ticket per game plus teammakers dues. And I would assume I'll see a slight increase
It's funny we get more national TV exposure than much of the Mountain West, MAC, and pretty much all of the Sunbelt. College Gameday had never been to the Gophers and we will have more gamedays (3)...
This is the best schedule ever.
Espn vs a playoff team
Eastern Washington who everyone hates and will probably be a college gameday game
Illinois State National Championship rematch
Bo Pelini...
Sure as heck hope the new video boards are ready for the kickoff game. Would look awesome on TV.
Yeah but we get a whole bye week to prepare for Iowa and a national TV game on espn. Plus a good non conference opponent. Doesn't get much better. Sure beats the days of Wagner, Central Connecticut...
Or what about adding an extra game as a non conference game, like they do in the Big Sky?

I agree. 1aa is not 1a, although our conference as a whole is as good as the G5. Then again the shitty FCS conferences would get rolled by most FBS teams. I think the FCS is just like the FBS. Top...
I think with the difference of 35, 63, and 85 - it's pretty darn substantial. Heck the top D2 conferences have caps in the upper 20s. So in reality it's more like 25 for D2, 63 for FCS, and 85 for...
D2 has some scholarships, more than D1 non scholarships. Believe me I hate the idea of playing a D2 but it is what it is. A cupcake game just like half the other crap FCS schools. It's filler
Und is a bad idea. A D2 cupcake would be more challenging. I bet they would have positive yards by halftime too
What's funny is we are their most difficult non conference game. We would curb stomp Miami (Ohio ) and Iowa State
I don't think it hurts in the eyes of the playoff committee anymore. Some correct me if I'm wrong but a D2 win still counts as a win (but it didn't a few years ago) it's just not a high quality win....
I don't have a problem playing a D2 game if it's thr ONLY option but I don't like the argument that FBS plays FCS, so it's acceptable.
SCHOLARSHIPS
FBS - 85
FCS -63
D2 - 32 or less
So a...
Jacksonville State? That would be bat shit crazy!
