A new and better FBS thread

Now thats funny. Youre already playing the guilt and blame game.

I don't think anyone on this board is to blame for anything that happens in NDSU athletics. But I am playing the "I told you so" game about two years in advance. And if it turns out I'm wrong, I'll be the one lacking self-awareness to remember this conversation. However, I'm guessing I'll have your help to remind me.

Just remember, basketball season is less than a month away. Then we'll be seeing eye-to-eye on everything!

Mock them all you want. They will be looking down their nose at us soon enough, and they'll have some right to do so. After all, they weren't afraid to make the jump. Their administration apparently said, "yeah, we don't know everything that is going to happen with CUSA, but we know we don't want to be in FCS forever. We have to seize the opportunities presented to us, not the ones we wish were presented to us but weren't."

lol. So now we're not even pretending the attendance requirement exists. They sure didn't get that invite based on the quality of their FB program.

It has been a long, long time since the attendance requirement was taken seriously. Watch some Rice and New Mexico State highlights. Idaho’s stadium capacity was less than the requirement lol

FREAKIN KENNESAW STATE. NOT NDSU. TO FBS. LOL. FIRE LARSON

Sources: Kennesaw State has emerged as the favorite to become Conference USA’s tenth member. That addition is expected in the near future for Kennesaw to join effective 2024.

I guess if you’re going to suck might as well suck in FBS. Go Owls. It's the Owls, right?

I’m not worried about NDSU moving up. All signs suggest to me that they are actively pursuing it, and I know the Bison will find a good FBS home. I suspect they’ve been working on it for some time, and I appreciate the standards

They will have 1 Neutral Home game at Atlanta Falcons stadium vs a big opponent and get 50,000 attendance


THE MOST IMPORTANT THING SAID BY KSU IS . (WE NEED TO BE FBS BY 2024 TO PARTICIPATE IN THE "OPPORTUNITY" TO GET INTO THE CFP)

This move is ALL about location. Helps the existing/new schools like JSU, FIU reduce their travel some.
On the flip side, this move nails CUSA to the floor, they won't sniff the CFP the next 10-20 years.

Any other adds will come from the same region, the next schools up are SFA, Tarleton, UCA, EKU.
Missouri St could get in if they want probably, but they seem more interested in SBC.

Location, location, location. It's why we need the PAC/MWC cascade to get sorted out.

[El_Chapo]

problem with your scenario is the CUSA/MAC/SUN BELT will have a "Chip & A Chance"

because in 2024 the door is shut & NDSU will be ballsacking the Dakota schools & Terra Haute/Mcomb teams for next 100 years while our idiot admin says "we will see what the future brings"
