Who is your pick to win the FCS National Championship in 2018?

The change of the name means nothing. It’s all the same damn thing. It’s like saying the MVFC didn’t exist prior to 2008. It did, a name change didn’t create a new conference.

A name hangs didn’t create a new subdivision.

Nope....but the Dakota schools made it relevant.

If his screen name is geographically correct, TennBison does need the occasional diversion from the clown show that is UT football.

That is true, I have not had anything to do with them since my playing days, that program was a ****show back then and more than likely is the same now. I am talking internal workings, not the play on the field or the coaches. Which is a whole other story.

Lumberjacks. You heard it here first.

Northern Arizona?

The Bison are a safe bet and that's who I'm betting on!

It's a sign of the times that there are probably no more than ten schools with any reasonable expectation of competing for the title these days. Whether in non-competitive conferences, or a school that cannot buy itself home playoff games, or simply reside in areas that do not generate enough talent, over 100 schools in the subdivision have no path to Frisco.

There is ALWAYS talent and a chance to make it to the title game. The problem is, most of these schools only care about NCAAM March Madness and the money they get from it OR they have no business in D1 athletics so they hemorrhage money to do so.

Anyone who says they can't recruit, is not looking hard enough or willing to dig. Look at APSU, KSU, etc... These school are not "prime" FCS schools, yet they bucked the trend and made their names known by willing to take non "blue chip" athletes as they knew they were not going to beat out the regional competition and yet made something out of it.

That's pretty much the case in everything and at every level and always has been, the schools might change a bit from one decade to the next.

No path? . . . , self inflicted reasons probably eliminate over 1/2 of FCS.
* 0 scholarship teams
* less than 63 scholarship teams
* ineligible Conferences
* Conferences that don’t want to compete

probably not much different than the FBS level where G5’s are not able to compete, fund, get to same scholarship levels.
