Unpopular Opinion: it’s more interesting to see College Gameday visit a unique small school than visit a big school they’ve already been to dozens of times.
North Dakota Friggin' State. These guys are unstoppable. Talk about a true dynasty. As a fellow FCS fan (James Madison) I am in awe of what they have done year in and year out.
Both of these teams should be in the B1G - I feel like they each would finish middle of the conference as they are right now - add more depth with extra scholarships as an FBS squad and they’d be insane
Lmao you gotta be kidding me B1G??? Both school enrollment combined is not even big enough for the B1G, they bring no market value or money to the conference. Stick with the Sunbelt, MAC, CUSA, & MWC. Those are the leagues they can compete in.
Noway, NDSU is the New England Patriots of College Football closely followed by Mount Union. The problem is people only watch the FBS when there is a lot of good football inb the lower rankings. NDSU is by far the most dominant team in college football. They play in the SEC of the FCS (MVC) a conference that has steadily beaten FBS teams and they have won 7 of 8 National Championships (they lost 1 in the playoff semi-finals). Mount Union plays in Division 3. They also play in the top conference in D3 and have beaten tough teams. Mount Union has won 13 championships since 1993 and has been runner up 8 times since 2003. Thats pretty impressive but I'd give NDSU the nod in terms of Dynasty greatness. Behind them I'd put Alabama. The problem with Alabama is they have championships given to them. These other teams play in real playoffs not a battle for ratings. When you have a real playoff system crazy things can happen and Alabama is shielded from that. Anyone remember what Utah did to Alabama and what Boise State did to Oklahoma, Oregon, Arizona, and TCU? Until the FBS gets a real playoff system their champions will still have the same taint surrounding them, not to mention all the years Alabama was given gifts from the BCS. I forgot to mention Pierre Garcon and Cecil Shorts III when to Mount Union.
@@ooo_Kim_Chi_ooo mount union does not play in the best conference for division 3 bud. They play in a shitty one for there level. WIAC is the best for D3 with: UW whitewater UW oshkosh UW platteville UW lacrosse UW eau claire UW stevens point UW stout UW black river falls This conference is the best and has been for a while. Not taking anything away from mount union because they have dominated D3 for awhile minus the years UW whitewater dominated it.
@Tw1 Have there ever been any real FBS dynasties? Or, at least any that have been consistent like App State or NDSU? I'm not downplaying Alabama or anything, but North Dakota State would come out for blood just to prove a point. Scheduling the Bison is a lose-lose for any P5 team involved.
Right? These guys have kicked ranked FBS teams off their own field and gotten paid to do it. Not to mention they've kept their boot on the rest of the FCS's neck for damn near a decade. App St. got promoted, NDSU should too
@@paulsmallriver6066 I highly doubt money has anything to do with it. NDSU is one of those bandwagon magnets. They have plenty of revenue, just not the fortitude to take losses while adjusting to the new competition.
SmithN' Wesson money dictates this decision. If it would have been profitable it would already be done. The numbers aren't there to make it work. The fan base isn't large enough and that's just the fact. Not enough to fill a larger stadium, not enough to bring in the volume of ad revenue needed to pull it off. Big deal if it's been talked about, that don't prove diddly other that it don't pencil out.
They've received plenty of offers from FBS conferences; they just don't want to move up. They're perfectly happy dominating the FCS. From a logistical standpoint, it makes more financial sense for them to say FCS. There are a multitude of reasons why they don't want to move up, but their main thought process is basically, "why move up to the FBS and become a middling program and become an afterthought when we can be the best FCS program in the country and still get plenty of media coverage due to our consistent dominating success?" Can't say I blame them.
They wouldn't work with the region. One of the motivating factors when SDSU moved to D1 was the fact NDSU moved up. It was also an extremely unpopular opinion here in brookings due to USD and Augustana both staying in D2. Looking back it was a better decision to move up. But we've one been D1 for 10 years. It's too soon to compete in other sports. It would mean leaving the summit league to join those conferences.
@@gopherfan118 the only way I could see either of these teams going up to FBS would be if they joined the Mountain West. Similar recruiting regions, and games wouldn't be too terribly far away. Besides, Boise State vs. NDSU would be fun to watch
It would be a dream to see the Jacks be ready for the FBS level, maybe the Big 10 so we can give Nebraska a good slapping for what they've done to us. Maybe some day, and some day soon I hope.
All these comments saying that they should go to the big ten (or move up to FBS), my only argument is that outside of football and hockey, they may/not be at the level for other sports. But they can definitely still beat some Power 5 teams.
Jeff Gau in order to move to FBS, they would need to join another conference (that is in FBS), and they would need to move all sports, they can’t just change conferences for one sport.
Not nessasarily, Notre Dame is in the Big East in every sport except Football for example. It is definitely possible to have different sports being a part of different conferences
Jeff Gau It does happen, I find that North Dakota isn’t gonna move up (or be an independent) unless they are absolutely forced to by the NCAA. There are some teams in FBS that should be FCS, and some FCS teams that need to be FBS. I would love to see NDSU in D1-A tho
Why would they? They can dominate the FCS or be average in the FBS. Easy choice if you ask me. Although I would like to see them in the MWC playing Boise State and San Diego St etc
Nope. LSU is #1 (somehow) in the FBS AP poll. NDSU is #1 in the FCS. They are one of only three unbeaten team left in the FCS, next to Dartmouth and Princeton.
14 playoff wins vs 17 championships....nuff said... the play by play guy should be announcing MLB.... wasted talent broadcasting sdsu football..color commentator should go back to pee wee football..

PSC Highlights especially if it’s a 1 vs 3 rivalry matchup
TheSportsGamer yea that helps too
PSC Highlights and how bout put it on national tv
I would agree but there were three much better options this week
That’s why I’d much rather see it at Minnesota over Tuscaloosa in 2 weeks
You’re the only one to post actual highlights for this game so far.
NDSU in the Big Ten, move Rutgers out , please.
Keep Rutgers in and have SDSU join as well. SDSU has beat FBS teams and is always a top 10 team.
@@ooo_Kim_Chi_ooo Sixteen teams in a conference? I'm good, thanks.
Honestly, though. Hadn't thought of that.
NDSU AND SDSU would both get clapped in the big ten Group of 5 at least
Sam Iam have them join the big 12 they need better teams
North Dakota Friggin' State. These guys are unstoppable. Talk about a true dynasty. As a fellow FCS fan (James Madison) I am in awe of what they have done year in and year out.
North Dakota State does not play anyone good.
@@jaredmcbride9632 huh? So all the fbs team that we beat are not good??? Hmmmm....
A hard fought battle between two great programs, but NDSU pulling away with a clutch touchdown in the end.
Two crash cans of schools and football programs. GO VOLS 🧡🍊
@@MikeHawkbaby they would beat u guys lol
Benjamin The Golden Retriever LMAO it’s hilarious that you said go Vols. Stop embarrassing yourselves
Tennessee is a dumpster fire
WeShowYou39071319 Kensucky 29-7 over Mizzou.. Ouch. Wait till Tennessee dominates y’all in a couple weeks!

Do you guys have a favorite FCS team? I’ve been to South Dakota so I’ve always kinda pulled for the Jackrabbits.
I have also been to SD. So jackrabbits I guess
NDSU just because of how much I’ve seen of them
I guess North Dakota because that's the only one I know
Furman
NC A&T
Dakota Bowl.
NDSU is really the Alabama of FCS.
More than that. 7 national titles in 8 seasons is insane

11:20 lol
I caught that too 😂
I want North Dakota State vs Alabama in 2022
Dynasty vs Dynasty.
Until you realize that it will be a primetime game at Tuscaloosa because it's Bama.
@Tw1 Have there ever been any real FBS dynasties? Or, at least any that have been consistent like App State or NDSU?

no you don't, you might think you do but no you don't
I wanna see NDSU vs App State
fr
North Dakota State has no business being in FCS. move them up
Both of these teams gotta go to the MWC
Right? These guys have kicked ranked FBS teams off their own field and gotten paid to do it. Not to mention they've kept their boot on the rest of the FCS's neck for damn near a decade. App St. got promoted, NDSU should too
It is not possible financially.
Paul Smallriver then they will never truly be taken seriously in football. If that’s ok with them then more power to them
@@paulsmallriver6066 I highly doubt money has anything to do with it. NDSU is one of those bandwagon magnets. They have plenty of revenue, just not the fortitude to take losses while adjusting to the new competition.

Put them in the fbs already
Their stadium isn’t large enough for them to play in the fbs. 🤷🏽♂️

lots of these guys will be playing on sunday
Underrated rivalry
What is a “Bizon?”
A bison is a type of buffalo
Bizon is the plural of bison
I know lmao who says it like that
A gun
I don't know, how does the sun "rize"?
Vinateri?
Honestly it's time to move NDSU to FBS. They are too good to be in the FCS. Imagine when they get 40 more scholarships....
I am glad for the Bison and dang it's too bad someone had to lose. SDSU is a good team.
North Dakota is unstoppable
Noah Miller yep 29 game win streak now
@@pschighlights you have the best highlights ever and they win almost every championship they play in
Noah Miller thanks my man😁
@@pschighlights np bro
North Dakota State*

came down to 2 plays. couldn't catch the running back.
What a call on 4th and 1. WOW
You should have posted the McAfee bit lol
Someone get ndsu a promotion to the fbs ASAP
NDSU should go FBS and sit as an independent first few years to build the program for FBS plau
I go to South Dakota state and was denied by North Dakota State
anyone wanna tell me how the fuck SDS scored 1 singular point between 9:00 and 9:18
Stupid play call and decision @9:18
Came here to watch Trey Lance, and leaving wishing I would’ve watched this game live. Wow
Former NDSU student, SDSU fans are kinda jerks. Some are good, but a lot of beer thrown at you. Plus my dad went to SDSU and we didn't talk all game!
prollins6443 damn that’s crazy
He didn't throw a beer at me. That was some other person. But he did act like he didn't know me, all game and afterwards (NDSU won)!
Top 50 programs

Hockey? Are you thinking of UND hockey? Because those schools are not the same. NDSU has club hockey and that’s it lol
this is D2 right?
Jake Johnson nah, FCS is division 1 even tho it’s a lower level than the FBS
Do they have a playoff or just a national championship game
Geaux Tigers like a 16 team playoff
Jackson Sweat oh nice
PSC Highlights ya cuz i was confused y they were ranked
Great game!
👏MOVE👏THEM👏UP👏
how?
NDSU AND SDS could beat a lot of the fbs teams
Quincy for announcer LSU #1 and they have
Rutgers
And NDSU regularly does beat FBS teams.
Bryon Grosz exactly
Wow South Dakota state wanted a better stadium than North Dakota state lol
Move to the fbs already
Why would they? They can dominate the FCS or be average in the FBS. Easy choice if you ask me. Although I would like to see them in the MWC playing Boise State and San Diego St etc

Yay more of the same
FCS kickers blow
#ND701 HORNS UP! ☝👆
Why does it say they are #1 in the nation I thought Bama was. ???
1 and 3 in FCS , Bama is number one in FBS!

Go buckeyes
Go Arkansas razorbacks. Hogs for life.
