Without a doubt the autos have to disappear. So many conferences with autos that are d2 caliber. So many bad teams in the fcs. Pick the best 8 like the fbs picks the best 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think FCS would be better served with a 16 team field with no auto qualifiers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiouxFan100 Posted November 17, 2019 Share Posted November 17, 2019 I say you need auto qualifiers - winning a conference should mean something the goal never has been to get the best 24 there is enough room in the existing format for most good teams to get in - not getting in isn’t a format problem - prove you belong over the season and don’t do like we do and get whipped by a two win teams Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is usually a handful per year that truly have a chance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Und does not belong in the playoffs. If they somehow make the playoffs that only means bubba will still be coach. absolutely not true. We didn't play very well and and still won. This shows that we were the better team as does the scoreboard. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Und wins by 7 points which und won on a blocked punt td. If this game was in Greeley they win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Way too many participating ribbons at a 24 team format. The fbs is only a 4 team. IMO the fcs playoff system is superior than fbs 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DB Cooper Posted November 17, 2019 Share Posted November 17, 2019 Idk, maybe it’s just me but with so many schools in the leagues, it’s fun to Atleast have a chance your team makes playoffs- and anything can happen in the playoffs. Just my opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have been and always will be but I will never give up on und football. I’m an extreme hard core fan. But I’m also they’re biggest critic. I will continue my negative bubba posts until he is gone .

Sioux95 Posted November 17, 2019 Share Posted November 17, 2019 Why did Skokna play today? Seems like a really bad decision by the coaching staff. Have they given up on saving a year of eligibility for him? If he plays against SUU I hope Chaves fires bubba on Sunday morning regardless of whether we make the playoffs or not.

Agree i have to admit I thought bubba had to go during the Idaho State melt down if we make the playoffs and especially if we host a first round game I can forget pretty fast what we went through to get there 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just my opinion. I totally agree, I like the way it is. Yes only the top 8 teams really have a chance to win it all, in my opinion. However it keeps a lot more interest and hope for fans of schools outside of that top 8. Our season would have probably been over after the Idaho loss even if we won out and had beaten Weber. I'm hoping that at some point we are consistently one of those top 10 teams, but I like the format and the interest it generates all the way until the last week of the season.

For wasting an entire year of eligibility by putting a player in a game at the end of the season where we didn't need him to play. I'm tired of trading player's best year for their worst year, and in Skokna's case, this is absolutely senseless. Had he sat today, we could have had him for a playoff game without risking his redshirt. Really poor call to play him today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
