    Have you ever known a politician that WASN'T a lying douchebag?
  3. Re: Big Sky or SoCon? Which Conference is Better Positioned for 2018?

    I am from Illinois, so I am well aware of this - Illinois seems to do a better job at actually CATCHING the crooks...

    Sidenote: My Grandpa was a Kankakee County Supervisor for many decades...

    Rick Renzi - Army brat, moved around, but grew up mostly at Ft. Huachuca in Arizona, then went to NAU
  5. Re: Big Sky or SoCon? Which Conference is Better Positioned for 2018?

    I hear that a lot about The Citadel men.. :)

    That is impressive. NAU's had a Governor, and a Congressman who ended up in jail :)

    Yes.

    Should have been a little more choosy during last expansion.
  7. Re: Big Sky or SoCon? Which Conference is Better Positioned for 2018?

    Big Sky Education >> So Con Education
  8. Re: Big Sky or SoCon? Which Conference is Better Positioned for 2018?

    Did they go to school while in the SoCon? If not, no credit.


    As far as Flag Bearers who competed in that conference, NAU's Lopez Lomong competed for Big Sky Championships (and won them)

    Good pick. First kicker in the Pro Football HOF = Montana State
  10. Re: Big Sky or SoCon? Which Conference is Better Positioned for 2018?

    Tiebreaker 1: Olympic Flag Bearers - BSC 1, SoCon 0
    Tiebreaker 2: NCAA Team Championships last 5 years - BSC 2, SoCon 0 (Does not include UND's Hockey Championship while in the BSC)
  11. Re: Big Sky or SoCon? Which Conference is Better Positioned for 2018?

    I like this!
  12. Re: Big Sky or SoCon? Which Conference is Better Positioned for 2018?

    Sorry dude, but Nevada, Boise and Idaho were the big three of the Big Sky. Montana didn't start picking it up until mid 90's. Idaho State and Montana State were decent, won a title, but never...
  13. Re: Big Sky or SoCon? Which Conference is Better Positioned for 2018?

    They make perfect sense.

    You are trying to link two things that are unrelated.
    1) Lack of available opponents
    2) Schedule through 2020 was already made up. Choices were: Kick UND out...
  14. Re: Big Sky or SoCon? Which Conference is Better Positioned for 2018?

    The Big Sky plays 8 conference games currently. Teams out west have problems filling the OOC slate, especially home games. So BSC teams have, and do play each other OOC. And yes OOC is the...
  15. Re: Big Sky or SoCon? Which Conference is Better Positioned for 2018?

    Why is it stupid? Eastern teams don't want to travel out west for home and home series, and the pool of Western FCS teams is very limited. NAU can get home and home series with MVFC and Southland...
  16. Re: Big Sky or SoCon? Which Conference is Better Positioned for 2018?

    Idaho was added before the F'N Hawks left. If the F'N Hawks had announced they were leaving beforehand, we could have just slid Idaho into your schedule.
  17. Re: Big Sky or SoCon? Which Conference is Better Positioned for 2018?

    Nice deflection. That was a totally embarrassing loss that should have gotten the coach fired, again.
  18. Re: Big Sky or SoCon? Which Conference is Better Positioned for 2018?

    Which is why no one was upset with UND leaving.
  19. Re: Big Sky or SoCon? Which Conference is Better Positioned for 2018?

    This is the 5th Season since ASU/GSU left. How much longer can you use that excuse?
  20. Re: Big Sky or SoCon? Which Conference is Better Positioned for 2018?

    I actually agree - just was a counter to the statement about how often the SoCon was hit.

    As for realignment hitting hard, recently SoCon yes. But in the 90's it was the Big Sky hit hard by...
