Playing a Div-2 Game

[unbison]

Why would anyone want to play a meaningless game that could basically only hurt your team's postseason chances. I'd rather play UND in GF before a fing DII or lower game.

this is exactly what fbs teams do everytime they play a fcs school

brian gordon? HUH?

now thats some funny stuff right there. equipment manager. CMON MAN!

Brian Gordon is in his sixth season at North Dakota State University and his first as the director of football operations and equipment services. His duties include handling all operational aspects of the football program including scheduling and all arrangements at the Fargodome for Bison home games. He will also oversee equipment services for all intercollegiate sports.

Sure is...

No its not, FBS teams get a bowl qaulifing win everytime they beat a fully funded FCS school. I dont think most well attended FBS teams lose attendance over playing FCS.

Every upset i can remeber the stadiums were prettymuch at capacity.

yeah and winning those games is what got them ranked that high.....they would have been ranked just as high without playing those games! so it is why there is nothing to gain!

not to play captain obvious, but I dont think that is the type of scheduling they are refering to. More along the lines of when players get to stadium and when they eat. But maybe I am wrong.......

Though im sure those schools paid FCS schools 300-400k.

And would of paid crappy FBS schools 1-2 million.

They probably had a way higher profit margin.

Seems like they gained alot of money and lost nothing..

Until BCS has some kind of playoff thing I dont see how it matters, if even then.
