    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?

    Big time college football Northern Illinois. They had 10800 for the opening game of the season against Western illinois. Sometimes I think many forget many of teams are not number 1 show in their towns whereas we are the show for most of the state.

    12 MAC titles, Toledo has 12 also.
    Combined NIU and Toledo have 7 of past 10 MAC titles.

    That plus TV markets is what FBS conferences care about. Mid week games in the MAC tends to erode attendance and the fanbase. The entire MAC suffers from this imo. They traded away Saturday games for TV money.

    Yes, we know we would likely beat these teams, but they have a long FBS record that can be measured. Not saying they are better, just the perception of being proven is there. FCS titles largely get overlooked by FBS.

    And yes, if they create an opening for us in MAC, we should still take it, even with midweek games.

    Issue with the MAC is that they have even more options to add then any western league.
    NDSU to the FBS always. In all ways.

    Sources: Texas State officials have received a verbal offer to join the Mountain West. A decision is expected in the upcoming days, as the talks continue. The Pac-12 has also expressed interest, but that has yet to yield an offer.

    Continues to be sickening the programs that get looks. I know I know I know.

    Still just seems ridiculous.
