The Big 5, the Mountain West, and NDSU

[THEsocalledfan]

Could MWC replace NDSU for 1 year waiver to fill in for (hawaii, fresno or air force?)

I'll tell you what, that is a solid idea. If there is a year the NCAA would grant a crazy waiver like this, this is the year.

This assumes NDSU wants to play. We seem to be content with a single game.

Get your foot in the door.

Mountain West is BACK!!

. This would allow league to be eligible for NY6 bowls. Not all schools might play w/Hawaii, Fresno & Air Force biggest unknowns for full season

Of course, that would be wonderful for NDSU. But we can't just call the NCAA and demand accommodation.

Why would the MWC and its members want to do this? So a team they see as inferior (FCS) could come in and potentially slap around the majority of its teams, and possibly take a bowl bid from them? Not gonna happen.

They have trouble filling conference schedules.....that is the best aruegment. Your points are strong, however.

Plus like I said last time old chapo brought up a similar idea, what happens to the relationship between ndsu and the mvfc or fcs for that matter. What happens next year when the FBS doesn't want us or we don't want to move up and we've burned all the bridges?

If we did that our FCS days would be over but this idea is about as far fetched as the fantasies from Siouxvolley on SS.com.

Totally agree just trying to bring some sane discussion to an idea that's as looney as bugs and daffy.
