    This conference would be worse than CUSA.

    Re: A new and better FBS thread

    We've had a great run the the FCS and I love the FCS playoff system, but lets face it, the division is badly watered down. The competition just isn't there anymore.

    This years playoff's include...

    Re: A new and better FBS thread

    In other words, they haven't reached out to anyone, or even given FBS any serious consideration.

    NDSU is way behind the mark on this one and is going to be left out of the party when this round of...

    Lets get the FBS bandwagon rolling. No more MVSU games on the schedule.

    Re: A new and better FBS thread

    The Mt. West would be great, but according to Sams, they have absolutely no interest in us. So, that leaves us with very few options but to stay in the FCS.

    Re: A new and better FBS thread

    The material benefit would be the ability to play FBS teams vs. D2. Personally, I have zero interest in seeing us play the Incarnate Word's of the football world and I know I am not alone in this...

    Re: A new and better FBS thread

    You don't know for sure that a FBS conference would never look at us with a 19,000 seat stadium. Our stadium size meets the NCAA minimum requirement for size. As for Montana, they end up scheduling...

    Re: A new and better FBS thread

    This could be a very real possibility, but it doesn't hurt to start making plans. I really don't want us to be playing D2 teams on a regular basis and I don't think a majority of our fans want to...

    Again, you are correct in regards to the SHAC, but lets face it, basketball isn't exactly a high priority in Fargo. Football is king and will be able to raise a heck of lot more money and a lot...

    Re: A new and better FBS thread

    The obstacles you mention are indeed real, but I don't think insurmountable. If the FBS games dry up and we find ourselves playing D2 teams to fill out the schedule, then I think it will be time to...

    Re: A new and better FBS thread

    And this is where you are 100% correct. The basis of my earlier argument was that we should at least have the feelers out there. I wasn't aware that they were already out there.

    Well, like it or not, some fans may lose interest if we lose the FBS games. But, if you look at my bolded I never mentioned fans losing interest, just the level of excitement for the program may go...

    Never said that at all. I will always be a Bison fan, no matter the division. However, FBS games are a big deal to a great number of fans and usually generate more interest than a normal FCS game. ...

    [QUOTE=TransAmBison;976053]So let's say we move up and join a lower tier FBS team. Would we not play the same teams and occasionally win a obscure bowl game? Would we not get bored with the level...

    Yes, PL, I really believe that if we can't schedule any more FBS games in the future, the program will be stuck in mediocrity and fan support and interest in the program will become stagnant. Like...

    Anyone listen to the coach K interview on the Bison media blog? He thinks we are near the end of FBS games due to the new playoff system and our success against FBS teams. I know this isn't ground...
