I actually like seeing a tough schedule for a team making the transition. I would rather a team get experience against a good team then confidence against a bad team.

Probably isn't much reason to risk re-injury in this game. I doubt he plays unless he's close to 100%
If you lose 60-6 are you really getting good experience? The only reason UND is playing them is $$$.
They're not local, so its not like you're going to get a bunch of Sioux fans to make the trip.
Rodgers4ever - please follow the rules so you don't get this thread locked.

I think if would be better to schedule a FBS school that is at the bottom of a major conference or a team that isn't from a major conference, than schedule an Oklahoma or a Texas where you are almost guaranteed to get beat badly. And please don't say b/c App. State did it UND can too. App. State and UND are not on the same level.

Flip, their a powerhouse defending their undefeated national championship. Its better they play them than some pathetic team like Wagner College which NDSU is playing

The best team in FCS is not that far from some of the better teams in FBS. The 50th best team in FCS is no where close to those same teams. You can't compare basketball to football either. Kentucky lost to a NAIA team a few years back.

Ha yeah. Sioux Falls is a powerhouse NAIA school but still. UND still should have one.

The sioux were using there 3rd and 4th string running backs . I would say the level of talent is pretty close. Except Sioux Falls quarterback was unreal and above anyone the sioux has. He was running around looking like a NAIA Michael Vick in his prime. This isn't a shocker by any means.
