    Today's @SJUJohnnies / @TommieAthletics game at Target Field outdrew more than half the Division 1 bowl games held last season.

    Try finding a ticket

    ndsualumni.com/ticketexchange it amazing how many people are looking for them.


    Going rate is $100/ticket on Craigslist https://fargo.craigslist.org/search/tia?query=ndsu


    for Homecoming/UNI & USD they will be going for $150-$200/ticket easily. WOW>
    Im reading your post as a pro for staying fcs...if we were in a worthless g5 conference...those ticket search posts wouldn't exist. I think that's a good problem.

    No! That can't be True...the bowl game is the all honored and covered prize!!! And a game at Target field would be terrible I've heard.

    Those Georgia Southern FCS playoff teams that came to the Fargodome would handle this GSU FBS squad.





    Serious question, of all the teams that have moved from FCS to FBS in the last 10-15 years how many are actually better now than their FCS years?

    Georgia southern won a bowl game with their FCS recruits, think about that

    Now look at them and that crappy spread option type offense, and their overweight d line that was sucking air halfway thru the first qtr..

    To be fair, GSU has a new coach, no? That could have happened in FCS as well...

    Boise State would be out of the time frame he used, i.e. last 10-15 years. The list would be Charlotte, Coastal Carolina, Georgia Southern, Georgia State, FIU, FAU, UMASS, Old Dominion, South Alabama, Texas State, Texas-San Antonio, Troy, and Western Kentucky. Some of these schools were new start-ups and only played in FCS for two years before jumping so it's hard to compare FCS to FBS success.

    Which ones have had FBS success? Also to what degree, winning one game will not make it a successful jump.

    WKU is probably the bellweather so far, they have done really well after getting off to a slow start. ODU has sold out every game since restarting football and UTSA has been up and down a bit but is undefeated right now and draws well at the Alamodome. Of the recent move ups, App State has won 2 bowl games in a row, GaSo is struggling right now but will be fine. Jury is out on Coastal and Charlotte while FAU and FIU have been a joke. That's my synopsis anyways.
