My thoughts on NDSU leaving for FBS:
It removes a dominant team and allows for more parity… but the landscape is still tilted towards the MVFC and Big Sky.
Doesn’t solve the resource differences and doesn’t automatically make other historically good conferences better (SoCon/CAA). #FCS

That last TD drive by Montana State feels like a backbreaker for Illinois State. Redbirds cut the deficit to 14-7, and now a Bobcat TD drive to start the second half would make it 28-7. #FCS
