I don't know if Mo St was picked by C-USA due to size and geography? The school had been posturing for FBS for a long time even though the FB program was generally average at best and usually poor. Sac St wrote the blue print on how to really muck things up. It's almost as if they thought...

All true except Missouri State. Couldn't compete at FCS but is bowl eligible in C-USA.

The failed P4 guys seem more often than not to be fools gold. ZOf course there are always exceptions - Aiden Bouman for instance, who transferred from Iowa State to South Dakota.

Why does that matter to the Las Vegas bowl?

Looks like a pretty high acceptance rate compared to the U. Three times as large as NDSU. I had assumed there was reciprocity but it doesn't exist. Some Iowa schools have individual accommodations for Minnesota residents. But total undergraduate cost of attendance for undergraduate...

Cowardly backs out? The players voted not to play. The coach is gone. The roster depleted. Players are sitting out these meaningless games more and more. Lots of social media noting the bowl system is dead, and all the opt outs are accelerating it.

What's that have to do with it? That's not the sponsoring organization's fault that we don't travel not any concern of there's as to why.

The thing about it is - I doubt many teams are excited to play Minnesota and it seems the chambers of commerce that run these bowls agree.

Future Wisconsin coach

The Minnesota guarantee, changing demographics and decreased enrollment all around has caused our neighboring states to really incentivize out of state tuition. SD for instance charges in state tuition to MN kids. I'm sure Iowa has done something similar.

First time since 2008 no xDSU in the quarterfinals.

Could happen but the scuttle is entirely coming from North Fargoans reading that into the Polasek contract extension.

Virtually no offense today

SDSU yes. NDSU, no. Lost a running back but the Bison didn't suffer.

Running game wasn't awesome at Wazzu.

He's one hell of a recruiter. He had a bunch of 3 stars headed to SDSU that he took to Wazzu. But his while loyalty and brotherhood schtick will lose some varnish at his 3rd job in less than 12 months. Lane Kiffin 2.0 maybe.

The pay day will be a pretty nice heart balm. Not quite a parallel but close: NDSU AD Gene Taylor was hired at KSU and shortly thereafter, filled the FB coaching vacancy with Chris Kleiman, NDSU FB coach. Iowa State just hired NDSU's president. Will Tim Polasek get consideration at ISU? He...

I predict a win total in the 4 - 8 range.

Does PSU get desperate enough to take a flyer on a successful FCS coach like Brent Vigen or Tim Polasek? Its hard to imagine but if I'm a PSU fan, I think I'd rather try my luck with an unproven commodity at a relatively low cost (buyout) than a guy churning our 7 or 8 wins consistently in FBS.

What a wild time to be a big time college football coach. If you have any kind of success, your agent lets a favorite "source" know that you're being considered for a high profile job and ba da bing, you get a few extra years on your contract and a million dollar raise. Or, you win a lot of...
