    UND. A bad FCS team. Beat a MW team, "convincingly".

    4 years and NDSU would figure out that 11, 12 game challenge of yours, and wreck your conference.

    We know bro, but he asked what NDSU would bring. So we're telling him.

    We'll bring shit-talking fans the likes of which they have never seen.

    MWC is convinced this is true...

    I have never denied you have a fine football program. You guys seem to think the MW doesn't have any good football programs. I am not sure why you would even have any interest in joining if you equate the MW to the schools you already play..

    It's a step up. But we play Western Illinois and Indiana State right now, soooooo.

    4 years, NDSU takes that step and wrecks your conference.

    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?

    Can't tell if trolling or what, but you're the one who asked why NDSU would be interested in the MW. I answered your question. Why ask the question if you're going to have a dumb response like that lol
    Mountain West, hope for the best.

    That's interesting. If not MWC or CUSA (far worse), that seems to only leave the AAC or MAC.
    Are we AAC or bust? Or swinging for the fences with the PAC / B12?

    AAC has good competition, and would raise our stature. The downside there is the media payout for new schools is lower than MWC, and most of their footprint is in the South East region.

    My fandom has nothing to do with my being able to judge bullshit when I see it.

    But then again thats just your opinion also. .
    I have never personally advocated to move just because or at all costs. I also don’t come here with rumors or hearsay. Never have never will. The reality is the NDSU leadership invested in a $50 million dollar football centric practice facility. That facility makes very little sense if we stay FCS. I want leadership to help me and the fanbase understand why they put that at the top of the priority list if an FBS invite wasn’t almost guaranteed by building it. Maybe it is and maybe it’s coming soon. If an invite doesn’t come very soon, that choice makes the decision very questionable given the impacts a similar investment in men’s and women’s bb salaries, recruiting and scheduling could have had. I don’t think there are any lies in that position, it is very much based in reality.

    That is my opinion and you are dismissive. Memes and emojis aren’t adult dialogue.
