the draw of FBS teams coming to Fargo(bcs or not) far outweigh any potential FCS has. Could you imagine a 2 for 1 or 3 for 1 when it came to scheduling teams and having a Big12 school come here? That would be awesome.


But i guess that some of you are fine with New Hampshire, Coastal Carolina & Delaware St.

i mean Ferris St just played a freaking home game here, how low is that? NDSU deserves way better than this.
There will never be an FBS team in Fargo. Why does the discussion of moving up come up non stop. The teams that have moved up werent teams that were at the top of 1-AA they have been mediocre teams that had the stadiums in place, prepared moneywise and were in the right place geographically. We are none of those three. Lets see what kind of support this team has next year or two or three years down the road without a trip to Frisco or without more than one home playoff game or even without a home playoff game, or god forbid no playoff bid. Im sorry but if bison football isnt big enough to outdraw hunting, how do we fare against a bad bison team on thw field. The last thing we need to be is the next umass or temple. Lots of things need to be in place before the thought of moving up should even be entertained. Step one is increasing the athletic budget from within, two would be entertaining a new or expanded stadium, and finally would be evaluating conference invitations.
