I think in the short term, yes, it will be less common as players who are good enough to go from FCS to FBS move up, but I think it will stabilize over time. The lower tier FBS schools will continue to schedule games they risk losing because they are cheaper to schedule and the FCS school will travel to them while the P4 teams won't or at least won't very often. Ball State isn't getting a home and home with Bama, Georgia, Notre Dame anytime soon. Sam Houston, still newly minted to the FBS, isn't going to host USC, Michigan, or Oklahoma in a one time non-con game. These teams will just have to continue taking their chances with the FCS teams and there will be upsets.
ive always said there needs to be a transfer portal regulation. my idea was that an athlete can only transfer after their 2nd year of eligibility has ended. and athletes who transfer are required to sit out 1 year, but it has no effect on the rest of their eligibility
@@rxsejay Scott Frost was 0-2 against Colorado, and lost to a CU team that put up a shockingly similar choke job against an even worse Oregon State team. His teams really weren't that good just because they kept most losses to one score lmao
Southern Illinois is 3-1 vs FBS their last 4 tries, including NIU this past season who finished with a winning record. The one loss was a one-possession loss to Kansas State who finished 8-5 that season (2021).
@@jamesshivelynow I'm no expert, but moving down (and thus out of conference) may still serve a purpose. Look at Idaho's mens basketball team compared to what the MW just did with the NCAA tourney. If anything, those other sports may be a reason to stay in a smaller (non FBS) conference.
@@dbeast03 I mean as a football-only member, which is very common. Idaho youre right though, should absolutely stay in the BigSky for every other sport. I could see Basketball going up to the MW as they are in their first year of a rebuild, but still suck. And Moving to FCS helped Idaho a ton for a few years but we're not gonna stay FCS especially teams like MSU or Montana go up
@@jamesshively for sure, limited sport memberships work, though that may come down to the exit cost to the Big Sky.

Hey Long time subscriber here. Love the content. Happy that cfb vids are back. Just a request that I think would be cool for upset vids is to have the closing spread just to see how big of a dog they were. Cheers!
Love all of these, but special shoutout to Sacramento State for beating a Power 5 school. There is an immense gap between the P5 and the FCS in terms of pretty much everything -- talent, recruiting, facilities, fanbases -- and the FCS teams have to bridge the gap with nothing but hard work and drive.
The ironic part is that Troy Taylor, Stanford's current head coach, was previously the Sacramento State head coach and had done a masterful job building up their program before leaving
Sacramento State > Stanford > Colorado. RRRAAAHHH in this past decade, FCS has had 3 seasons where they had 10+ FCS over FBS wins. (2021, 2016, 2013) since 1978, the Pac-12 have the worse winning % against the FCS as a P5 and the MAC have the worse winning % against the FCS as a G5.
SIU was no slouch last season. They went 8-5, were a field goal away from making the FCS quarterfinals, and were the only team all season to hold FCS champion South Dakota State to under 20 points
It might be my favorite highlight of the year if NDSU beats Colorado. Can’t wait to watch the Buffs of CU get overhyped again and lose to NDSU then Nebraska in back 2 back weeks! (GBR by the way)
Idaho was so close to being 3-1 over FBS schools these past two seasons (Lead Indiana and WSU by 10) and got close to being 4-0 (Lead 17-0 against Cal) Hopefully we can can get a few good scored against Oregon this season and beat Wyoming
What’s more impressive is not only Idaho beat Nevada soundlessly but also beat both Sacramento state and Southern Illinois during the beginning of the season and near the end. 💪 V’sss Up!!!!
With lots of teams moving up from FCS to FBS this is getting less likely to happen (ODU, Jax State, Sam Houston, etc.) Got the Dakotas next year that could pull it off. But I don't think NDSU beating Colorado would be a upset really 🤣
Two things, If Sacramento state can beat Stanford, then they can beat Colorado 63-7. Plus I wouldn't call Idaho's win an upset, they were actually favored against Nevada.
Is it just me or does it feel like there were a lot fewer of these last year. I know we still have four of them, but it feels like there was more in years past.
The commentator for the Sacramento State v Stanford game has got to have one of the most annoying voices I've ever heard. If I were a fan of one of those teams, I'd have that shit on mute,
This is not accurate at all. Sac State was 12-1 the previous season and Stanford was reeling. I wasn't surprised at all that Sac State won, especially as a revenge game because Sac State's head coach left them for Stanford after the 12-1 season, only to get handed a loss right away to his former team. Stanford was only a 6.5 point favorite. NIU was a 9.5 point favorite over SIU. And by far the biggest, Buffalo was a 21.5 point favorite over Fordham. Idaho was actually a 4.5 point favorite over Nevada, so that one really wasn't an upset at all, but the margin of victory for Idaho was still definitely a surprise.
Sadly there was only 4 FCS over FBS upsets in 2023. Hopefully they don’t become less common with the transfer portal and NIL.
Fuck the NIL

Its weird how Idaho got better by moving down.

@@morriciummagnum860 I will laugh so hard if Colorado goes and loses. Tho would be expected by the Bison
Stanford went from losing to Sacramento State to pulling off the incredible comeback against Colorado. What a wild season.

Felt like there were far fewer FCS > FBS upsets last year than normal. Hopefully that number increases this coming season

Watch out for NDSU vs Colorado this year.
It's one thing to lose; it's another to get embarrassed at home, Nevada.
Northern Illinois beats Boston College one week then loses to Southern Illinois
Makes BC's turnaround season all the more remarkable

@@TrojanManXLT their second to last year, and they put up 61 in a bowl game win that season
What are the odds NDSU beats Colorado this season?
They’re only 6.5 point underdogs, which is very close for a p5 vs FCS game. They definitely have a good chance
It might be my favorite highlight of the year if NDSU beats Colorado. Can’t wait to watch the Buffs of CU get overhyped again and lose to NDSU then Nebraska in back 2 back weeks! (GBR by the way)
very high
I’d say there’s a good chance, although NDSU hasn’t been as dominant the last few years

MW should drop to FCS, Bigsky to FBS 🤷♂
Hope that this year NDSU beats Colorado. The Colorado Crybabies' reaction would be priceless 🤣 😂

Ok, but that last touchdown by Sacramento State against Stanford was insane.
As a lifelong UNR fan, the Idaho loss was one of the most painful I've experienced. We should've stayed in the WAC.
