And JMU was the team that beat them a couple of years ago. NDSU is a FCS powerhouse. Wonder if NCAA will push them to FBS.

NCAA doesnt force any movement for dominance. NDSU just heavily invest in their sports. They actually offer $3,400 stipends to athletes which is rare in FCS. NDSU has shown no desire to make the jump right now. Might as well stay in FCS, moving up to join the MAC and play in the Potato Bowl isnt appealing.

Very true. Georgia Southern has fared pretty well. I ionically think NDSU would actually do pretty well in FBS

Theres no doubt they could win. Just not worth it when they'd have zero chance of winning national championships. 

it would also require a lot of $$$$ for them to move up.. no reason for them to do that.. they can just own the FCS level which is terrific.

Yep, and they would have to build another stadium. The Fargodome is a nice facility, but it doesn't have the capacity requirements of an FBS Stadium. They would probably be required to play in a Dome, considering how cold it gets there.
