    Here in Oklahoma they sure know about NDSU being in the Tourney.

    Ya man I mean NOBODY ever talked about NDSU beating K State and Iowa in football. It was never mentioned on any major news outlets. LMFAO.

    You know what prevents NDSU from being a basketball school? Lack of fan support. I drove 5 hours last night across the state to watch the championship game. Not a single student in the student section. Not one.

    It was the most pathetic showing at a significant NDSU sporting event I have ever witnessed. Omaha had far greater fan support. Granted it is a bit closer, but their student section was mostly full.

    THE STUDENTS MADE SPRING BREAK PLANS AND ADULTS DIDNT PLAN ON GOING... BECAUSE WHY>???? BECAUSE WE WERE 13-15 vs D1 teams and staring at a boring coach.
    NDSU TO FBS. HAVEN'T WE WON ENOUGH?

    Exposure:

    NCAA BB Tourney Win > FCS Championship > NCAA Tourney Bid

    Go there and win, that’s the ticket

    But, 7 FCS titles > 1 NCAA tournament win.

    The only reason some people get lost in thought is because it's unfamiliar territory.

    How about a curling school? Who knew?
