MVFC Expansion

[td577]

How does the Big Sky operate their schedule. "Divisions" without official divisions?

They probably pull names out of a hat.

They made that decision without a committee? I find that hard to believe.

Don't worry, we're probably forming another committee to waste more money on revising cutting sports. SMH

Well, rivalry will be back in earnest. Hope they are looking forward to getting a regular beating like a red headed step child.

HTF can they announce this without approval from the MVFC? Was there a vote I'm not aware of???

Article said MVFC vote is on Wednesday, and they also said it was expected to pass. So what does this do for the schedule now? Does this trigger us loosing another member like Youngstown?

I'm in no place to talk smack. UND has improved, but is no where near elite (yet). As you said, the rivalry will be back though, fueled by all sorts of different stuff. People that like to hate UND, people that will hate UND being brought into the MVFC, people bitter about UND not scheduling NDSU when NDSU went D1, and vice versa. Everyone will have a different reason.

Personally, I really look forward to some rivalry games, with you guys, USD, and SDSU. Also look forward to playing some of the teams that we haven't really seen yet. It will definitely be fun to come do some tailgating at the Fargodome. NDSU does a first class job in terms of the tailgating setup.
