I've never seen, nor heard of anyone saying that we would be among Alabama, Clemson and Ohio States of the world, lol.

    But if you want to make that argument- please feel free to do so.. or provide evidence that others are, in fact, making that argument- either will do, but neither are possible since they have not happened.
    I am making the argument that you do not know what everyone is thinking.
    The only reason some people get lost in thought is because it's unfamiliar territory.

    This is not just an argument either... its a testable theory that can be proven:

    Mankato, quick, what am I thinking about RIGHT NOW...?

    That’s not even close to what I said. You are saying that playing Akron is going to get you more excited for a game. If NDSU was fbs Akron turns into the new Indiana State.

    Which is a similar argument I've made to those who think G5 is the place to be. Those "bored" with FCS competition will easily bore with G5 competition in no time.

    WELP- based on the fact that boise state has been mentioned many times in this thread as a program to aspire to and alabama has been named ZERO times in the same context, The burden of proof is solely on you, bud.

    Based on all available evidence Boise state is exactly what people are thinking when they talk about making a jump. To say that people are thinking of Alabama in this discussion would be to ignore reality, and to fabricate narratives out of thin air.

    But yeah, you Really really showed me! Sick tweet man
    1. The FCS was the Best option for NDSU for a very long time.
    2. As a general rule- the FCS sucks at football and has proven that is not committed to football at all.
    3. It's time to go FBS

    The talking head last week actually said---on a 3rd and short----"this is full blown MACTION you are seeing here folks." My wife called BULLSHIT!

    When you play football, you gotta like the taste of blood, And 50 percent of the time, it's your blood.

    It is characteristic of the unlearned that they are forever proposing something which is old, and because it has recently come to their own attention, supposing it to be new.

    That’s a fact.

    If you were a MAC team like Akron, you could get a payout like this:

    "According to the game contract, USC will pay $1.3 million, along with 2,000 tickets valued at a total of $100,000."

    After being stiffed by Nebraska due to a game cancelled because of lightning, the Zips got a replacement game with South Carolina on Dec 1, 2018 at the price listed above. Not bad.
