Didn't you get the memo that no one cares about FCS football on this message board? :biggrin:
Just joking of course, since I care at least. I watched some highlights of the game earlier and it looked like it was a pretty good game. JMU apparently faked a punt late and threw a desperation pass to the end zone on 4th down with less than a minute to go in the game that was knocked down, which sealed the deal for NDSU.
I filled out a bracket for the tournament and I picked NDSU to win it all correctly. I watched a lot of the games on ESPN3. It's always interesting seeing how good the MVFC''s top teams are compared to other leagues' top teams. The worst part of the tournament is that they set the bracket up in regions (to save money on travel costs), so a lot of the teams that are consistently good end up playing each other year after year. For example it seems like every year MVFC schools get stuck playing each other in the second round. Usually it's NDSU vs SDSU; this year it was SDSU vs UNI. Unfortunately I can't watch any of the "Final 4" games since I don't have cable. I still follow the games though.
I know we have a lot of work to do, but hopefully within the next few years we can make it back to the playoffs and maybe even make a run. If we ever make it to Frisco, you can count me in as one the fans that would drive to Texas to go see us play.

I don't think there is, or has been, any disputing the MVC is the best FCS conference. It's just that being in it doesn't do us much good. So yes ... the conference in which we were 0-8 and were outscored in by 366 points this year is the best. And we had no business being in it this year.
