  • Ferris State should move up. :) :) :)

      It's clear that NAIA has a better playoff model, and regionalization really isn't the way to go. Take Wayne and Kearney, for example—they could meet in the semifinals even though they're from the same state but different regions. It doesn't make sense. OBU and Mankato should have played different playoff opponents. Mankato vs GV but that didn't make any sense, yet, GV and Mankato are in the same region next year. There are so many other flaws with how it’s set up. If automatic qualifiers (AQ) happen, the best 24 teams should be chosen, and yes, that means fewer teams making the playoffs but the best 24. New Haven is 36 in the country. The current system has been terrible for the past few years, with blowouts dominating the championship game. It’s time for a change.
      Granted, but Ferris also dominated all of SR3. Slippery Rock acquitted themselves well but I don't think anyone would call that Ferris's best game, nor do I think a SR3 vs. SR1 game should be held as an example of parity. Ultimately, this Ferris team would be favored by double digits against any other team in D2.

      The playoff system is flawed, but this game in particular is not necessarily a symptom of that. Ferris is just that good. They have a team that could win a game or two in the FCS playoffs.

        This game should be played after the New Year.

          Agreed. Lack of character.

            Well they basically have a D1 team already.

              So far in FBS there have been two blowouts so far..Penn State steamrolled SMU and Notre Dame crushed Fake Indiana.

              • Are you F ing kidding me. Ferris keeps falling in the manure pile and keep coming up with roses.

                    We beat them. It was our last good game all year and Ferris steadily got better. Congrats to both teams on a great season, but the class of D2 cleay resides in Big Rapids.

                      I live 20 minutes from the stadium. Left early in 3rd quarter when Ferris went up 35-7. I sat on FSU side. Looked like they had maybe 500 there. Valdosta had maybe a few more. I’d be surprised if there were over 1.200 there counting the 50 football players from McKinney high schools who got free tickets to hold the big flag during the national anthem. Big drop off from the 5400+ at the Harding-Mines game last year.

                      • I had the NDSU-SDSU game on. By the time that I tuned into this game, it was out of hand. Hate to see that in a title game.

                        • Congrats to Ferris - they're a fine team with some top-notch players. D2's model program right now.

                          • I thought Ferris State would win, but I didn't expect the Bulldogs to crush a really good Valdosta State team. (Then again, I could have said the same thing after Ferris State walloped Harding a couple weeks ago.)

                              Indeed. At least the Jacks vs Bison game was close.
