  1. Who is going to take NDSU with their geographical challenges? And being the next Idaho is not very attractive.
  2. FBS is insanely expensive. The only way any of the Dakota 4 (UND, NDSU, USD, SDSU) are moving up is if they do it together and use their leverage to form a new FBS conference. Otherwise, it ain't happening.
  3. Bison rubes honestly believe they are a hot commodity in collegiate sports and that conferences are lining up at their door. News Flash: Neither one of those things are true.
  4. Yet NDSU was the one who needed a state bailout for athletics.
  5. What none of the Dakota 4 have is a conference willing to accept them. Either they all work together and form their own FBS conference or it won't happen.
  6. Can we get back to talking football and not what someone really meant?
  7. Both NCHC and Summit League now have a relationship with CBS Sports. I smell Josh Fenton's influence here.
  8. I've been predicting this for several years now. The P5 and G5 schools are classified as FBS, but they have little else in common.
  9. I honestly don't have an opinion on Wentz. That injury is what torpedoed his career. Best of luck to him.
  10. I honestly don't think there is anything there.
  11. Perhaps collegiate athletics needs to crash and burn before it can be changed for the better.
  12. More good news?
  13. Getting kicked out of the MIAC was the best thing that could have happened to St. Thomas. They will become a factor in Division I during the next 5 to 10 years.
  14. It's the worst run conference in the history of collegiate sports.
  15. Here is a web blog to help keep track of all the changes on the UND campus: UND Campus Renewal Blog
  16. I guess I am just tired of UNI getting into the playoffs with a 6-5 record more often than not.
  17. I think Northern Iowa is overrated in the MVFC poll.
  18. My point is that nobody can predict what will happen for any team before a single down has been played. Picking a playoff bracket now is a waste of time. If we run the table during the regular season, not being included in the preseason playoff bracket won't matter. But yeah, not being included in a pre-season playoff bracket is a slap in the face and (I hope) bulletin board material for the team.
  19. Preseason rankings of any kind are pretty much worthless.
  20. Just plain Chargers would be more palatable.
  21. Can we all concur that the defense last year was not very good and must improve if this team is going to go any further in the FCS playoffs?
  22. So tell me, is it uncivil to point out that a player in the starting lineup is (or hasn't been up to this point) not very good? I say no. Some people think we should post all positive things all the time and make a conscious choice to ignore any obvious negatives. That is the approach that makes me go "UGH".
