In the bottom 15 we see some decent teams from weak conferences. They beat up on their weaker conference mates, build a decent statistical profile to find out they really can’t compete against the upper echelons. Thats the position Bison fans are hoping for in the MWC. Any real chance at the championship is a certain mathematical illusion, just as good as the illusion of the Summit Championship and winning the Big Dance.
With the opt-in and 18,500 seats there is nothing NDSU can do in the FBS they can’t already do in the FCS

The 3 mill media cut has the MWC looking more and more like a premier FCS conference.
