Cats are currently front page of NCAA website for an article covering a mock FCS playoff bracket. Stan has them at #1
https://www.ncaa.com/news/football/arti ... nth-season
This is not a surprise to me. MVFC is virtually identical to the Big Sky. They have 3 good teams (NDSU, SDSU and USD) and then it falls off. You could argue that Missouri State is a fourth good team but they have a couple of bad losses (one to UM). North Dakota has some bad losses and barely beat UM. I would put those two teams in the second tier of the Big Sky.

MSU is in a seperate class with dominating wins and and FBS win. Then there is Davis and Idaho who probably belong in an upper tier. UM, NAU, Weber all fall into a tier 2.

Both conferences have a lower tier and the MVFC might even have more crappy teams than the Big Sky

I recall in years past we were able to buy championship tickets through MSU. Or they offered them lottery style I guess? How many tickets did each person get to buy or does anybody recall? I know it’s based on points etc. just curious at this point.
I was able to purchase six tickets from MSU for the last time the Cats played in Frisco.
I got 4 last time based on priority points.
But my priority # is in the 300's now so maybe might have access to more?
Possibly, as long as they don't change the system.

Just a couple days ago I received a note saying an email would be coming out within the next week which will talk about priority points and how access to tickets will work for the playoffs. Suspect we will all know how it is going to work this year within next week.

One more to 12-0 and home games until Frisco. I kind of like the team had some adversity at the end of the game, even if it was totally a terrible call by a ref on the PI in the end zone to start the dominos.

If it was the one I am recalling, I kind of agree. Thought both were playing the ball. But I am certainly not an official.

Cruzado’s final year as president.

This would be the cherry on top of an amazing career.

The path to Frisco runs through Bozeman.

12-0

First-ever #1 seed?

Definitely their first #1 seed since joining the 1-AA/FCS division. They were the #3 seed when they won the championship in 1984.

I was in junior high and went to both of those games at home.

What’s up?

I know a team when it’s the one.

Couldn’t make this one. See you next weekend in Bozeman.

Bobcats and Ducks are a combined 27-0 this season. Bobcats will win the championship. Ducks may not. Regardless, a season as a fan I’m probably never going to match again.

We’re in the same boat, my friend. What a year for football!

My wife says I should savor it. The odds of both winning championships is slim because I think our Ducks have a pass rush problem at times and I never fully trust an Oregon defense. My nephews play for Glacier and I’ve been in attendance for the last two title games, which unfortunately they lost. Have to get the #1 seed next year and play at home throughout the playoffs.

The Bobcats are as dominant at Big Sky team since the Dave Dickenson championship and it will sting if they can’t win it all.

Are you going to the game in Eugene next Labor Day weekend?

Amazing atmosphere yesterday and it’s always fun seeing so many MSU friends from the 1990s who live out of state who travel to Bozeman for these big games.

Yesterday was a great MSU team just being methodical and beating a very good USD team. Best team I’ve seen at Bobcat Stadium by far this season. Well played, Coyotes.

One more to go and Tommy has revenge on his mind.

Woof. I know there are some Ducks fans on here and I seriously was rooting for a FBS vs FCS title game but this is getting ugly.

I know. A super bummer. Let’s hope this isn’t indicative for undefeated college football teams in the playoffs…

Alternatively, let's hope it is indicative for teams wearing green and yellow.
