    The real question is ...What were the ratings of the basketball game that was before the FCS championship?
    I don't care how the vote ended up. They still suck and always will.

    LOL, you have a quite skewed view of the world. You've got it backwards. They tuned in to watch Pitt play, game ends, gone. It's FCS football man, get over it.

    Warning: It is the offseason. Trollolol may or may not be in full swing. Take a deep breath and eat a trolli burger before reading my posts.

    Casual football fan sees the FCS Championship game on the menu...tunes in...sees a boring basketball game...gone.

    You're so smart.

    If you wore the uniform...you're a champion.

    Exactally, yesterday one of my coworkers comes up to me, says he couldn't find the game anywhere and he wanted to watch it because I'd be there and he likes football. He knew it was supposed to be on at noon because I told him before I left, we didn't know that it would actually be on 12:17.

    I agree with you in principle, CA, but the first hour of our game to a CASUAL FOOTBALL FAN (not an NDSU nut) was pretty boring...

    So you are saying that Vigen should have called the jump pass and/or flea flicker on the second drive (wouldn't work for the first because many didn't see it)?

    Yes, and at all costs. The Primary Gameplan should have been to attract fans to the NDSU and the FCS... Winning the game: Secondary.

    A lot of football fanatics (meaning millions) prefer the white noise of a football game over the silence of a meaningless basketball game...and the never-ending silence of timeouts and fouls that has become the norm in the college game.

    The first hour of our game was exciting to the football purist...the eye of the beholder.

    If you wore the uniform...you're a champion.
