OFFICIAL BISONVILLE SPONSOR OF:Tatanka™ brand humor. Gary Bettman's incompetence. The process of recommending a task force to recommend a process to be suggested to another task force, and of meetings called to discuss future meetings. The 21.3% of teh university students that, unlike Tatanka, are online-only, and the 15+% that never step foot in North Dakota. And hating Detroit...Proud member of TOHBTC and NDSU Team Makers.
Any body hear anything regarding a 2017 or other future FBS game? Saw today Auburn and others have filled out there schedule with a FBS team.
When Gene Taylor announced the home and home with Eastern Washington before he left for Iowa, he stated that NDSU was changing the scheduling philosophy for the future to home and home series with high level FCS programs. This was because most FBS teams will not even consider playing NDSU in the near future because of our success against FBS teams.
The talk sounded like the only teams that may consider NDSU in the future are the very successful Pac-12 and SEC teams. The question Matt Larsen will have to ask himself is does the benefit of playing these tougher FBS teams outweigh the long travel, out or traditional recruiting area, and higher possibility of a loss.
It will be interesting how Matt Larsen handles future schedules for NDSU. 2015 and 2016 are set. I would not be surprised if NDSU gets a few teams from the northeast region of the U.S. on future schedules for home and homes or guarantee games. His connections to those teams from when he was at Stony Brook may help to open the doors to some games with teams from that area of the country.
True but if Coach Cain can successfully bring a difference maker out of Cal every year or two I can see how it could be a win to play a Stanford or Cal or somebody like that. Also would be great to get into the Carolinas especially if we get more Molick Scott types and also helps with Florida parents as they could drive to a game.
From a Montana St fan..any legs to this? I would think ndsu gave them a big old finger unless the bobpussies agreed to come here first and the buyout is above 600k or moreIn addition, the Cat's will be playing NDSU in a home and home on the schedule starting in 2017
NDSU Athletics: oderint dum metuant
Would love to see Boise St to prove who is the best non P5 team.
Illinois State scheduled by Wisconsin for game in Madison in 2022.
$550,000 for that bus trip.
