Should the Gophers move to the Big Sky for its superior travel destinations? I dont see how you could compare Iowa City to Cedar Falls. Not even close.

Or maybe I just imagined that, I'm really not sure. I think it was the power bowl or something similar to that. Can't remember who was the sponsor. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every game is on ESPN3, makes it easy for parents to watch their son play. Also very nice for fans. I have seen several people try and pass this off as a plus. I don't get it - Eversports shows all Big Sky games on line for free.... plus you can watch all games on demand for months. ESPN3 usually requires a fee or up charge and not all providers have ESPN3 available. Plus, the games are on demand for 2 or 3 weeks - then gone. Plain and simple Eversports is a much better deal. I don't get your logic. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, that's a bit harsh, but have you seen Cedar Falls? I'm sorry, but just as a travel destination there is no comparison. Don't try.

I don't get your logic. Ive had streating issues with eversports. Last year they screwed up the Idaho st fb game and didn't even show the weber game. Also they don't stream games on roots sport network. Love using the espn app on my roku, and have never had an issue with it. I think alot of the eversports vs espn argument depends on your location and your current provider. For me personally, I'm looking forward to the change and not having to hook up my laptop every time I want to watch the game. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SWSiouxMN Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 So Montana and MSU can/could be brought in as package deals for non-conference basketball. One night in Fargo, GF and then flip then next night 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are in the 780-790 channel range and they show a lot of FCS football games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, what you "could say" about them is that they don't compare favorable to the mountain scenery of the Big Sky as a travel destination. It makes no difference how they compare to Cedar Falls.

UND-1 Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 Go to BV. Suddenly the greatest football conference in college football history sucks and they need to go FBS. All because of the addition of one team. The addition of South Dakota was sweet-ass but now the entire conference is worthless and beneath them. BV is the message board equivalent of Appalachia.

Not sure about the rest of you, but I'll go ahead and sit Macomb, Carbondale, Terre Haute, Normal and Youngstown out. Still a move that needed to happen...

You have to understand that a very small percentage want to move to FBS at all costs and will use any excuse to try and make that case. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love how they think we aren't going to beat anyone in the MVFC, its like they are the SEC or something. Comparing our Mussman years and Bubba's first year as the W-L factor. If thats the case the last time we played UNI we beat them with our DII team. They are a riot over there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
