    Random thought here too.

    Often times people bring up these lesser bowls as a reason to not want to be FBS. "I dont want to go to <insert city here> to play in <low tier bowl>."

    While appearing in these bowls would certainly happen as a result of playing better competition, if NDSU is as good or fairly close to the level people seem to think it is, wouldn't you anticipate fairly regular conference championships/10+ win seasons? Those typically yield a bowl game against a solid team. Say you have a very good year and go 11-1 or 12-0 and you are looking at a great game

    Yep. A 5' 7" corner doesnt cut it in the MVFC. Same with a non athletic LT. Our interior DT and guards used to be 6-1 to 6-3. Now we're 6-4- to 6-6 inside. We probably resemble a Big Ten Oline. Throw in these 6-6 TEs and we are different. And what's crazy is these big guys arent slow either

    Who knows where things stand now. A new Commissioner took over in the middle of March.
    The only reason some people get lost in thought is because it's unfamiliar territory.

    Devil is in the details here.

    The slots will go to the top 6 conferences and 6 at large.
    Those at large will 100% be P5, and almost all SEC and B1G slots.

    So ... this is great IF you are in one of the top 6 Conferences.

    Join the MWC? Absolutely!

    Join CUSA? Hell no, they will drop even further behind when they can't get a CFP slot. It will snowball.
    And they won't be able to when they've got teams almost losing to Bryant and SFA.

    MWC or bust.

    An undefeated Mountain West champ is absolutely in the field of 12. Every year.
