I think another argument against NDSU moving up is how the P4 conferences are building a wall between them and the G5 conferences. NDSU would have to have an absolutely perfect season with a schedule made years in advance to even be in the conversation about entering the playoff. And hope they're the only G5 school in that situation. Otherwise they're relegated to the Leftovers Bowls, which may be on the decline as ESPN sheds expenses and the playoff diminishes the value of what were second and third tier bowls.
One day we're going to have a 12-0 Boise State and a 12-0 Toledo or UCF and they're going to be left out of the playoff in favor of a 10-2 Clemson or a 9-3 Oklahoma.
