Watching sportscenter just now doing a story on the FCS playoffs said they just started today how ignorant can they be. Nice to see some coverage though.

Why were the FCS quarterfinals games $129 for pay-per-view? Lol.

They also said this is only the second time UNI has made it to the semifinals....it's been at least six times.

I believe Gary Rima said on OPR that UNI was 5-1 in home quarterfinal games as of the UD game last year....Now 6-1.

There is 6 times plus any road wins

They only highlighted 3 of the 4 quarterfinal games. Guess which one was not? Hmmm...East Coast Bias, anyone? xeyebrowx

Just saw it too. Whatever, if we keep on winning they will have to show us on sportscenter eventually.

One other beef: Scott Van Pelt is an inaccurate, condescending idiot.

Today they showed some graphic with "FBS" in it and he said, "What used to be known as Division I."

The guy next to him quickly corrected him and said "Division I-A."

But he did the same thing last year when North Dakota State beat Minnesota, saying stuff like, 'They're moving up to D-I.' Uhm, they ARE D-I. Moron.

Well technically, NDSU was still in the process of moving up to D-I last year, as it was their final provisional year.
