[QUOTE="zoops, post: 138684, member: 790"] I also grew up in GF and went to UND and have been to countless games - grandparents had season tickets to hockey, football, and basketball and I was a sports nut as a kid so I tagged along since about the time I was potty trained. Was just talking to a buddy the other day - remember when we were at the game in 1993 when UND broke the bison's streak? We sat on the track behind the end zone because the bleachers were full. We were 10 years old and my parents just dropped us off at the stadium and said "we'll pick you up at grandma's after the game" - my grandparents lived by university park. Would anyone dare let 10 year olds go to a college football game by themselves these days lol? I guess I don't have a problem with FCS football. D2 became a lot of smaller schools (UM-Crookston, Moorhead, Mary, Minot, etc) that really watered it down and really made it a no-brainer for the better D2 schools to move up. It's worked out pretty well. No sane person will argue that the FCS champion is the best college team in the country so whatever I guess. To think that UND or NDSU will compete with the SEC is not grounded in reality. Got my tickets for UND's playoff game today; will be my first game since the D1 move and I am looking forward to it.
