2023 Non-UND FCS thread

So the odds of all 4 Dakota schools making the playoffs took a jump forward today.

This finally might be the year it happens.

I don’t know…there’s one Dakota school that might possibly lose to all the others.

NDSU will still get in if they get to 7

MVFC looks good at getting 5 teams in.

They will win their next 2. I see them at 7-4, or 8-3. They won’t beat SDSU, but will have a good chance against SIU at home and UNI on the road.

[SWSiouxMN]

SDSU

USD

UND

NDSU

UNI

YSU

ISU RED

SIU

To me: 8 teams gunning for 5 spots.  YSU and UNI could be done by next weekend, or this become a bigger mess.

are you making a case for summit football?

Grid lead vandals 10-0. About 3 minutes left first qtr.  It's on ESPN2

[Nodak78]

Bobby Hauck using way too much trick plays.  Behind the back pass.

[Sioux94]

Montana beats Idaho in their house 23-21. I said it before .....Big Sky is down this year. I think all four of the Dakota's may be be better than every team in the Big Sky other than MSU. Idaho was supposed to be the up and coming Big Sky darling, but get beat at home by a team that lost to an NAU team that we crushed. Still a long ways to go though, but either way I think that second tier in the Big Sky after MSU is not as strong as the second tier MVFC after SDSU.

Hoping that the comments MVFC Commissioner Patty shared at UND Booster luncheon are followed through on. Basically said that SOS needs to be higher consideration. Biggest challenge is getting the Selection Committee to have more integrity and less back room deals.

This is interesting.

So you can play 4 regular season games PLUS all playoff games and retain eligibility?

That's what it seems like

That’s definitely a game changer when it comes to roster management.

Is this a mid season rule change, or did some people just notice?

This was put in place for FBS schools before this season, but it was just recently clarified now to also apply to the FCS playoffs. 

[SWSiouxMN]

So there is the potential of someone playing close to a full season (4 games plus 4-5 potential playoff games) and still keep their redshirt.

Very interesting.

Korey Tai and Lance Rucker szn

[The Sicatoka]

Assuming no prior appearances, the whole roster opens up with four regular season games remaining for as long as the season persists. Nice.

Since there are 5 regular season games left, could maybe play them against UNI this weekend and sit out one of the other games, like Murray St. or Indiana St.  Could still use them for USD and Illinois St. in that scenario.  Can't remember who all has played and in how many games.  I think Tai has been in one so far??  Could perhaps see a Jerry sighting later in the season, especially in mop-up duty against certain teams.

Just for clarification, the "them" I was referring to was any Freshman who hasn't played any or many games, not just Tai or Rucker.

Rucker has already played in at least 4 games, Drake, Northern Arizona, Boise St, and NDSU.  Can't remember if he did against SDSU or Western Illinois.  My guess is he was probably in late against Western Illinois which would already put him over 4 games already this season.  Korey Tai however is completely different and would be fun to see him play in the playoffs. 

[SIOUXFAN97]

don't think this rule change or interpretation shouldn't really change much......if Tai or any other young guy is that good why isn't he playing or playing more?

nate d...i think 6 starts...0 catches...come on man
