I saw this SBNation article linked on a Sun Belt thread. Kind of a fun read. Sorry if it has already been posted elsewhere.

I don't care what Jim says. That is not the real Ben Franklin. I'm 99% certain.
I would take us by at least 7 against every team from the MAC, Sun Belt, and CUSA home or away. At the dome I would pick us against the majority of the MWC and AAC but see us as underdogs at Utah State. The only teams that we would be dogs to at home or on the road would be Boise, Fresno, Memphis and UCF. I think we could beat any of those four on any given Saturday but we would have our hands full with Fresno and UCF this year.

Pfffft bring on Clemson!
The Bison have proven that they can beat FBS teams. But that has been one-per-year. Much like the arguments against UCF, it is a different question of whether the Bison can win during the grind of a top conference with tough games every week. It isn't so much talent, but depth and discipline that I see in the Bison program that would make them competitive week-by-week against better teams.

Give us 85 scholarships y play half the games in the dome, I like our chances
During this run, the Bison have been legitimately somewhere between 11-20 the entire stretch. I would agree with that article. The heavy blue chip schools would be tough and NDSU might pull an upset here and there but should lose. 15-25 should be close contests and nearly a toss up. The rest, NDSU should be favorites.
Basically, there is the top 8-10 programs and everyone else. It is also why the G5 schools should try to build their own brand with a playoff system and try to add the MVFC, CAA, and maybe the big fluffy.

Jason should tell the FSU AD to schedule the Bison so we can find out.
Funny how he lists much older victories over Kansas and Iowa State, but not more recent ones over Kansas State and Iowa. Not "ha ha" funny but funny that a writer for an FBS school feels the need to bias their argument about NDSU beating their team.
Oh Christ, "enjoy the success at the lower level, but those saying they could hang need to stay in their lanes". When did they legalize hallucinogenics in Florida? Yes Florida State gets better athletes than NDSU. They just aren't a good football TEAM. If they are so much better, schedule NDSU. I think the most interesting part of that game would be the eye candy in the stands in Tallahassee .
