    I mean, yes SDSU's side of the bracket was soft. But that is because the only other relavant football programs (NDSU, Montana, & Montana State) were on the other side of the bracket. If the NCAA set up the bracket where those 4 schools were in their own quadrants, that would be your Semifinal teams every season.

    Four teams that should no longer be FCS teams. Honestly, we ruin it for the other FCS teams that simply have zero chance to ascend to FCS Championship games.

    This is precisely why it’s only a matter of time before the powers that be start creating rules or changing scholarship allowance to even the playing field for the betterment of the student athlete experience. It’s coming.

    Personally, i kind of hope that this does happen. It will ignite the fire for NDSU, SDSU, Montana and Montana State to move up a level. Just like the d2 days, it took something major to get our administration to do something.

    Albany was a disappointment…
    The Villanova game was a much bigger struggle for the Jackrabbits, with the Villanova punter being SDSU’s Offensive MVP for the game. Furman taking the Griz to overtime was a much different game also.

    Personally I would count a fake field goal as a special teams play. They do say "while not on offense" but they start with the claim that no TDs have been scored on special teams.
