    I started playing NCAA Football 14 on the Xbox 360 again recently. I replaced San Jose State with NDSU. A guy can dream?

    NDSU is the MVFC/FCS- not sure how or why they would not see this as a benefit to improve their image. Be like the FCS being upset NDSU scheduled Oregon.

    Beyond that- at what point does NDSU act somewhat upset that the MVFC isn't playing when the Big Ten is?... Yeah yeah, spring schedule (minus a decent number of our seniors). NDSU just flames back that they did it for them. Good for NDSU recruiting as well- that they care about football, not being pushed around, and care about their players.

    funny on the MWC board, that's been mentioned a few times. Just replace SJSU w NDSU asap.


    sorry, this isn't a far fetched idea, NDSU has Cred right now and a marketing gorilla in Trey Lance/Dillon Randunz that could be utilized to HELP created revenue for this university that is hemorrhaging revenue now

    Only when people have ambition in life anything of significance can be achieved. Currently we have an administration that is very bad. They are just riding on the coat tails of a very successful Football program. Student enrollment is down (http://ndsuspectrum.com/enrollment-r...nt-rates-rise/). No FBS games on schedule. No interest in moving to D1 level where exposure and opportunities are bigger and better. Currently the only thing we have is a very successful Football program, largely due to a bunch of highly motivated and outstanding 18-20 year olds and Football coaches. The top management is just lazy , overfed and very uninspiring.

    Reality slapping the face.

    elevating NDSU by using the football program as a springboard was what elevated NDSU in the 1st place paging Joe Chapman/Gene Taylor

    I agree we needed to try harder to play some FBS games. We needed to play at least 3 games this fall. It would have been unbelievable to play an independent type schedule this year. I have not been onboard to jumping unless it makes total logical sense, but we clearly are not an FCS program. Although, I lived thru the 90's as a fan and we went backwards thanks to D2 taking away scholarships and FCS is headed clearly in that direction right now.
    If it flies it dies.

    Long for the days of freezing in the south stands of Dacotah Field.

    this is what i'm fearing as well, with covid as an excuse, alot of fcs programs will be hurting (they already were and are!) so what a perfect time to decrease scholarships grrr

    Yep I'm starting to jump on the bandwagon of moving up. We are clearly not an FCS program anymore. FCS teams don't beat Iowa or K State.

    Let's crowd source a budget and pay these FBS pansies to play us in their house. Think about the press from that? FCS school pays FBS school for road game. Beats them by double digits. This is once in a century like opportunity.
