Not really.
Tried telling you guys the MVFC is really really good. Top to bottom, it is a better league than some of the FBS conferences. Probably a notch below the MW overall, but not by much.
If you gave NDSU, SDSU, Illinois State additional scholarships and put them in the MW, they all would be competitive on an annual basis.
Personally, I think NDSU or SDSU could win the conference right now.
If you aren’t P5 or maybe consistent non P5 teams like Boise/BYU or a Norte Dame, there is very little separating your FBS program from top FCS programs.
Boise St would beat NDSU 9 times out of 10 and 7-8 or them would be by 3 TDs. Wyoming would probably split even with them winning in Laramie or losing in Fargo, and Wyoming looks to be a bottom third MW team. I don’t doubt the top of the FCS is competitive with the bottom 50-60 FBS teams but there is a big difference once you get to the top of the G5 and low P5. NDSU would probably be a 6-7 win team in the MW.
If you honestly think Wyoming would split with NDSU, you are seriously fucking high.
It would not be pretty of these two programs played. I honestly don’t think it would be competitive.
Wyoming barely, and I mean barely, beat Wofford at home....and the separation between a Wofford and NDSU is significant.
I like how you can say wofford is statistically a good team but in reality they are not all while smiling.
Can we stop debating this clown?
