| bwburke94 | 3 | ...but my #25 didn't, as NDSU is moving all the way up to #3. This is the one exception to my post-bowls rule of "play it completely straight", as I'm ranking the Bison here specifically to counter the folks who wouldn't consider ranking an FCS team. |

| MonkeyPunch | 20 | How dominant have the Bison been?  So dominant, I have a feeling even with moving up to the FBS, they would still win 8+ games a year in any conference they join.  Yes, ANY conference.  P5, G5, doesn't matter.   |

| Extra_Excrement | 24 | NDSU, FCS, WHAT!?!? The main mod man Bacondrogo practically forced us all to rank NDSU because he sent a message out to us reminding us to rank NDSU. I kid, of course, but that is actually the first time I™ve ever received a message reminding me its ok to rank a team. I was actually going to do it regardless though. Its hard to ignore a team that absolutely owns their subdivision and a lot of the NDSU fans on r/cfb seem pretty reasonable. Id like to see them move up to FBS as other dominating FCS programs have done before them, but its harder for them than it was for teams like Georgia Southern. Theyre over in an area where people generally dont care for college football as much. They need to upgrade the Fargodome, their facilities, and put more money into the program in general but theyre just not ready for that. Attendance is going down from what I hear. Theyre just not losing and they probably wont unless they schedule top G5 or P5 teams but what team would want to pay an FCS team to possibly upset them? Its a toug situation to be in, bison dudes. Competition and occasional losses boost community interest generally speaking. I, as well as many FBS guys, fully support NDSU transitioning to FBS in the future but my internet words mean nothing. They wont move up until its viable and that likely wont happen for a while. In the meantime, we should just take a step back and respect the FCSs top program. Oh, by the way I think it goes without saying that they werent in my WTE and preseason polls. Its always implied NDSU will do well in FCS play but their level of dominance this year was enough to urge an appearance in my final rankings! |
