Vegas? The Mountain West office is in Colorado Springs. I drive by it a lot. I'm still hoping to run into their group (preferable seated at the same table) at one of our Sport Corp luncheons. I really want to know how crow tastes and if they still think NDSU is a cute little university.
Hail the BISON!!!
Definitely. I even think it would end up closer than most Bison fans think it would. Look at how much Clemson struggled with Syracuse last year. Bison would bring their A game and that tends to take other teams somewhat out of what they want to do. It probably wouldn’t be a blowout.
I remember someone brought this up on here a few years ago. Same with LSU, OU?
I believe a lot of SEC schools schedule SoCo teams as their FCS.
Georgia Southern gave Bama a hell of a scare in 2011. Racked up 400 yards rushing and kept it within a score most of the game until the end. We could make it interesting and put up more of a fight than most FBS teams. We'd still lose by a few scores, but I don't think it would be a slaughter.
It's called aviation. Wonderful industry. You think the MW is bus league? I'm pretty sure they fly the team from Boise to Albuquerque. To say nothing of Honolulu. In fact, Fargo is preferable to some FBS towns as there is no need for a long bus ride from the airport. The Target Field game confirmed yet again that NDSU has a fanbase that can support an FBS team. If NDSU wants play FBS teams, NDSU should find a way to go FBS. Push for it. At least try to make it happen.
I don't care what Jim says. That is not the real Ben Franklin. I'm 99% certain.
