    of course I want NDSU to be FBS since 2013! We all saw how set up this football program was. Kudos to NDSU to keep succeeding.

    I just keep pushing NDSU to get bigger and better.... and live up to the motto above that NDSU weight room all these years.

    "Bring on the Competition" we've conquered the FCS. time to Bring it on.

    have a good weekend all of you sincerely.

    Not trying to tell you how to post (jk I absolutely am right now) but more posts like this would go a long way for your rep around here. Most probably agree with the previous poster on not being sure if you’re really an NDSU fan. I know you love the hype/drama but bringing realism/humanity never hurts once in a while.

    You can advocate for a better future without denigrating the present/past. A lot of times it helps your overall message. Just food for thought. All love, go bison

    I feel basically the same way. I’ve met Sam and he seems like a good guy and I don’t doubt his sincerity at all. Some people struggle to truly represent themselves on the internet (me sometimes), others don’t. This is a weird place.

    So the PAC 12 is the first P5 to complain about the proposal, suggesting that all the P5s should get an autobid instead … Seriously

    This is how it gets ruined. Whiny rich people ...

    Its all about how to to keep the bowl system intact.

    Plus who said there was no separation???

    Scott said: "The Pac-12 supports expansion of the CFP and believes that the Autonomy Five champions should annually qualify for the CFP. ....

    If we concentrated on the really important stuff in life, there'd be a shortage of fishing poles"

    When you play football, you gotta like the taste of blood, And 50 percent of the time, it's your blood.

    You don't give out trophies for losing. Trophies for sucking. That's a communist idea. You don't get a trophy for losing. You get a piece of pizza and you shut up. Trophies for losing? What the hell happened to us?

    Well there’s three pieces of good news I have for you:

    1. This guy is on the out after his contract wasn’t renewed.
    2. Of the “Autonomy 5” (wtf does that even mean anyways?) only the Pac12 is concerned with their conference champion not being a top-6 ranked conference champion. I’ll let you guess why lol
    3. All other conference commissioners have either said that the discussions were about it being a meritocracy.

    At the end of the day, I don’t really care. It may actually help placate the PAC12 and avoid more of the foolish breakaway talk. Their conference champion is likely always going to be a top 12 team so who cares.
    Mountain West, hope for the best.

    The NCAA choosing to schedule SCOTUS over amateurism because they think they’ll win is about as smart as any P5 team scheduling North Dakota State because they think they’re a FCS tune-up game

    This NCAA thing is not going to be good for college sports. Hard to say how it'll play out, maybe it will lead to a real split by (some) P5 schools, but I think it has the potential to crush others. There can't be more than a handful of athletic departments that make money, and even less that make money after eliminating subsidies.

    none of them “make money” they are not for profit organizations.

    We all live in stories... It seems to me that a definition of any living vibrant society is that you constantly question those stories... The argument itself is freedom. It's not that you come to a conclusion about it. Through that argument you change your mind sometimes... That's how societies grow. When you can't retell for yourself the stories of your life then you live in a prison... Somebody else controls the story. - S. Rushdie
