Chris Klieman said when he was at North Dakota State, they tried to schedule Alabama, but it never happened. @RossUglem @HankSouth247

Not surprising. I think we have tried to schedule almost every FBS team. Multiple times.

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

But we can't pay enough to come to Fargo, and maybe they can't generate enough revenue to justify bringing in NDSU. (Again, looking at G5, not P5)

Bingo. It is funny to see all the handwringing in this thread. The solution is obvious. Go FBS. Then you can play all the FBS teams you want, including plenty of P5s.

I'd think a MAC team would maybe bite but I doubt a MWC would. Northern Illinois would be awesome but I don't think they are that stupid.
