OT: 2019 NCAA D1 Football

Re: 2019 NCAA D1 Football

Interesting to see UIW has been placed at #3 in the Southland, significantly ahead of ACU. UIW was always struggling in the LSC.

There's a kid who was featured on the most recent Last Chance U who is playing at Incarnate Word this year. Chance Main.

I also find it amusing that the former DI FBS Idaho isn't even in the top 5 of Big Sky schools. CWU plays them this year, too.

I smell upset potential. Idaho is down as their recruiting has been sub standard since the move to the BSC. They are also going to get the living dog **** kicked out of them the week prior at Penn State.

I may have to hit a couple of UIW home games.

Playing non-scholarship football in DI is so random. Stetson and J'ville (both ASUN members) need to ante up and come to the Big South.

And man is that league spread out.

Augustana could end up with them.

Re: 2019 NCAA D1 Football

Again, not on TV- frustrating to listen to all of those games on the radio!

Kids today don't understand the struggle of one or two TV games a year for your team.

Did I miss North Dakota?

Re: 2019 NCAA D1 Football

Did I miss North Dakota?

They are the only Independent in FCS for 2019 as they are waiting to join the MVFC in 2020. But, they still play a Big Sky schedule.

Last season, UNA, Hampton, and UND were the FCS indys.

It was maddening- but it also made me pull for certain teams around the nation. Or root against them.

Re: 2019 NCAA D1 Football

How is it funny? That QB is gone, they also lost a lot of other key players. WSU is good for a couple of years, then they fall back. Really tough to sustain a top ten type of program in Pullman.

Gage Gubrud is gone? I can't find anything about that. Last I heard the NCAA gave him his medical hardship to play this coming season.
