[QUOTE="Eatsleeptrap, post: 480396, member: 7577"] The Mountain West is the right conference if football does move up. That trip to Hawaii every few years would be a logistical and spendy bitch for NDSU, and if the damn games are televised it is usually 9 PM, but when Hawaii has a good team, its usually along the lines of 600 yards passing a game and they are a BALL to watch. Same with Air Force and their option game. They throw EVERYTHING at you, including the kitchen sink. The Air Force Academy is a $200 flight from Fargo or Jamestown to Denver and an hour drive south. What a great weekend that would make! UNLV plays at Allegiant Stadium that seats NFL crowds, so imagine jumping on a $200 flight to Las Vegas in Bismarck and watching the Bison play a road game in an NFL stadium in Vegas? I have not liked the idea for as long as it has been talked about, but I've come to realize that the move is inevitable. If we can accept the fact that NDSU football will NEVER win another national championship, it is going to be a lot of great football to watch. Throw in all of the UND fans that are losing their fucking minds right now, and it gets my thumbs up, but... ...I love football and NDSU. NDSU is doing things right. Seven men's sports and seven women's sports, all finally having competitive seasons on their own. I hope having to add 22 scholarships to one of fourteen sports does not upset that. Think about it, even though everything UND does is a shit show anyway, they moved to FCS from Dll and 8-9 years later were forced to drop one of the best women's hockey programs in the country. If the FBS football move affects any other NDSU team negatively, then it was the wrong move. Only time will tell. [/QUOTE]
