I think NDSU could hold its own against teams from 30-100 but that is kind of quibbling. I think they could occasionally pull off an upset against a higher rated team similar to what happened against Iowa. The reason I am opposed to moving to the FBS is that NDSU would be shuttled to some conference where we would aspire to play in the "Verizon presents the Doritos don't double-dip bowl brought to you by Honda." By which I mean one of the proliferating "bowl" games that no one outside of the participants really cares about. Why spend a lot more money just to be irrelevant. While I suppose some would argue "no one but the participants really cares about the FCS" it is nice to say that the Bison are Division 1 football national champions.
