A new and better FBS thread

its odd that they keep saying that the dakotas are a package deal when not a single one of the dakota schools thinks that.

I mean one of the Dakotas thinks like that

only one dak school has been willing and able to make solo move in the d1 era ..........and we know how that went.

Zero Dakota schools moved football only.

true...but only one school went solo in anything from the other 3...point is ...1 school trying that again is almost at zero...it'll be 2 or all 4....

with all the tarleton state to the _________________ you wonder if the pres of tsu even answered the phone when Fenton called and if he did he said "who"..."what"..."stop calling"
interesting to see what happens with pac12/mwc stuff now....

Not remotely true for a football only move.

[skunkapekiller]

true...but a fb only invite from the mw or mac (mac is almost a zero percenter considering the mac didn't like the addition of AAU major metro Buffalo).....is not happening.
it's all sports or nothing for the mw for the daks, mont. and idaho

So why would the MW add Northern Illinois as a football only? That's 1 team on an island and 600 miles further east than us. They are the only team in the central time zone, the most valuable for TV time slots

Also Buffalo is in the MAC so I'm not following

Reality is football only is much more likely. Traveling every 2 years in football makes more sense than traveling every year for Olympic sports
