Re: 12 team playoff? All P5 conference champs to be in, 1 G5 Champ, six at large
AAC dark horse may be NDSU. They have not wanted to move up previously due to the belief that you can’t win a Natty as a G5, which was/is true. They are arguably a state flagship, carry a strong brand and actually bring good basketball, reaching the tourney 4x since 2009. Fargo is certainly no Hous...

Re: Transition
Thank you for the comment. We do and have for a long time redshirt most/all of our recruiting classes. It takes a few 2-3 years in our program to really get a grasp of your assignments and knowing them like the back of your hand. Small details are emphasized like no other. Maybe some day a transitio...

Re: Transition
These are all very intriguing statements and I thank you for it. The one big glaring issue if a move up was ever on the table is that we will never be able to compete for a national title again. Would it matter if you got home games against Minnesota, Boise State, BYU, or some other regionally or n...

Re: Transition
I appreciate all of the responses guys/gals!! My goal to joining your forum was to get some first hand thoughts and information from a fan base that has gone through this process and again I thank you for it. My findings show that you guys appreciate the FCS years and titles but wouldn't go back fro...

Re: Transition
There was some talk about possible dome renovations and maybe getting to 23k but in some ways it would be more cost effective to maybe build new. The stadium aspect is an issue that would have to be hashed out. We are currently trying to get enough funding to break ground on our $40 mill indoor prac...

Re: Transition
Culture and tradition are two things that NDSU does not have a lack of. We pride ourselves on culture and tradition.

Re: Transition
Hosting P5 schools was another thing that some fans don't think would ever happen even though Wyoming hosted Oregon a few years ago and Fresno St. had Minnesota come in for a visit. It probably won't happen all of the time but I would be willing to bet that maybe 1 every other year or so one would p...

Re: Transition
Who are the P5 teams the App has hosted? Have you had many ranked teams come to play with ya'll?

Re: Transition
I can't even imagine how you guys can remain enthusiastic playing FCS ball. How do you measure one season versus another if you are undefeated every year? Honestly it’s getting a little rough. If this season ends the way I think it will we will have played 2 and a half seasons without a loss. This ...

Transition
Hello everyone! I'm sure someone has asked before and I may have missed it but I have a question regarding your transition from FCS to FBS. You guys have had a lot of success in the Sunbelt especially as of late and I am wondering what your opinions are on the move. I'm sure its easy for you to answ...
