Not surprising. I think we have tried to schedule almost every FBS team. Multiple times.
533 In a row
Yes, we would have been crushed, but damn would that have been fun!
Road, you think NDSU made enough money on the Target field deal that maybe they could attract a mid major FBS team to play there? In other words, could NDSU pay a high enough guarantee and maybe they'd consider it since "neutral" site? Thinking teams like Northern Illinois, Wyoming (yes, know that would not happen, but the type of team I'm looking for), Colorado St, etc.
Matt Larson was on 1660 today an said we would play any FBS team willing but nobody wants to sign contracts
NDSU Athletics: oderint dum metuant
Now people will bitch and complain about why it never actually happened.
NEWS FLASH!!
Schedules don't usually mesh up nice and perfect for everything to fall into place ever so nice. You can try, but sometimes, it just won't work.
Alabama: you want to play us?
NDSU: Yes, we have these dates open- xxxxxxx xx, 20XX....etc.
Alabama: oh sorry, those don't work for us, how about November, 2030?
NDSU: Nope, sorry can't do that late in the year. Conference schedule goes up to the weekend before Thanksgiving and then playoffs start immediately afterwards.
Alabama: playoffs? Oh, those two games you play in January?
NDSU: No, the 4 or 5 games we play in November, December, AND January.
Alabama: Well, we are the college football national champion.
NDSU: We are the NCAA Division 1 football national champion.
