Only reason I give 2 sh*ts is:
-apparently NDSU is looking for an 11th game, and a 6th at home.
-JMU apparently is looking for a 12th game (already have 6 at home), and a lot of JMU fans on the JMU board are clamoring for a 12th
-of NDSU's 3 open dates and JMU's 2, they both are open Sept 21. This has been brought up on the JMU board.

As I said on the JMU board, NDSU is already playing @ K State and hosts Montana St, who has been in the playoffs for 3 straight years. I doubt they'd want to play a BCS and 2 I-AA powers. They only have 5 home games, so even if they were willing to do a one and one with JMU, it would have to be @ NDSU this yr.

JMU would be a great game.

Haven't checked out Delaware State's schedule, but I have heard rumors from NDSU.

GSU might want a 12th game. Up for a nice warm November game in Statesboro?

Glad the game could still be played albeit 3 years later. :thumb:

Pretty sure they are trying pretty hard to get a game on the 14th, so we will have a bye weekend right before the conference schedule starts. I've also heard the Delaware St rumors and our AD has stated they are fine with playing only 11 this year, due to all the extra games we have played in the last two years.....it basically amounts to a whole extra season of games. I've also heard the rumors that they would possibly be interested in a home and home with one of the elite FCS teams, so JMU could be a possibility......I would love to JMU come to the Fargo Dome again, but most likely it will be a average to below average FCS coming to Fargo on the 14th.

WCU will be flush with cash with their 2013 schedule. They'll be beaten up, but they'll have some big paydays.

@MTSU
@ VT
@ Auburn

Hey Psychocat - any idea what the payout for these games is?

Confirmed.

So that gives us Delaware, Towson, NDSU back to back to back. Sacred Heart is floating out there but still unconfirmed for now. I wouldn't be shocked if a last minute FBS game is thrown in there to open the year.

Brutal scheduling. We're gonna have an inexperienced team next season, they're really going to be thrown into the fire.

According to AmsterBison, DSU will be the 38th different FCS school NDSU has played since moving up from DII. Looking forward to seeing a new foe in the dome.
