I am watching 1. North Dakota St vs 12. Montana.

No doubt I love being FBS and playing in the highest level of college football but I sure do miss dominating FCS and being able to contend for titles. Think what could of been if we had stayed FCS.

Watching Montana reminds me of ODU with TH his sophomore year. Their coach pre game said his goal was to run 50 to 60 plays before halftime.
We got out just in time. Im looking forward to a bowl and competing with vt and uva.
Playing in a game no one watches for a title nobody cares about is not my idea of the good old days. I'm staying with FBS

Amen brother !!
When ODU has a football game on ESPN called by Brent Musberger like these two small time teams are, let me know. It will probably NEVER happen. And BTW, the Montana stadium is bigger then ODU's and is going to be enlarged again. What channel is that ODU game on again? Just sayin. We ain't exactly big time. Maybe one day we can out recruit Marshall perhaps.

Sounds like some want to argue today. Im not concerned about when we get on espn or if our stadium will be as big as Montana's. We are simply doing it right.

Thank god SB Ballard will never be as cold as Montana's stadium. Oh, and stop complaining, ODU made out like a bandit during the conference realignments.
The only reason NDSU is on is because it's basically the ONLY game on today... and a gameday producer two years ago stumbled across their record. Otherwise ESPN doesn't know they exist.

By the way: the ODU game will be on ASN (as will most of them), check your local listings. This will likely be one of maybe 3 tv games for NDSU all year, and possibly the only one for Montana.
Well Montana is almost about to win this game
Exciting game! Made me smile to see Stitt start his time at Montana with such a big upset win. This game was cool in that we got to see an offense we've run a variant of (Montana's spread) and an offense we may end up playing like in the coming years (NDSU's Pro-Style). On top of it all, Montana fans had that place rocking even with the crap air quality from the regional wildfires. Magic stuff.

I've got to to say both those teams could complete in CUSA and Sun Belt. That as an exciting game!!!!!

It was a great FB game to start the college FB season.

I just wish the conference would play on a level ground. Out recruit Marshall at this point would mean taking non qualifiers.

Non qualifiers can't be on scholarship03-banghead
You mean to tell me you do not think they are about to get NQs enough "Financial aid" to pay for school.
I just think it weakens the whole conference to take them.
They should go to prep or JuCo

What funds do you think NQs get outside of grants (if they qualify) and loans? NQs go to JUCO.

And unless you know the eligibility status of every kid at Marshall, you would never know who is/was a NQ

Well move to Montana and root for them. Their stadium might be bigger, but how often do they sell out? I see ODU out recruiting Marshall because of were ODU lives and their schedule. Marshall always has a cupcake schedule as they are afraid of competition. ODU just joined the FBS and has almost played 10 P5 teams. Kids won't want to go to a school that makes cupcakes, they wanna be on TV and ODU delivers that. Look at how many big names we are playing in the future. Okay and now look at Marshall's. Right.
I might be movin' to Montana soon just to raise me up a crop of dental floss.
