That was my only point. For the record, I am not a fan of any western team.
I only brought up the North Dakota example last year because it was brought
up as an issue this year. So I ain't forgetting anything; if I had paid
enough attention in previous years to know about the MSU situation you
mention, I would have brought that up as well. It doesn't matter to me that
MSU didn't win; just because they failed to capitalize on their advantage
doesn't mean that there was no advantage. Unless there is a NEED for them
to be at campus locations (as, for example you could argue there is for D3),
in my opinion, they shouldn't be.
