More flies than fans at the Shell soccer stadium.
It’s been a great game.
Funny thing, North Central is a small Methodist college about 6 or 8 miles from where I grew up. But I never heard of it until today.
I was watching the game and curious about the schools and looked them up. Wikipedia showed it was in Naperville, IL–right down the road. Weird.
It was actually a fun game to watch, Kind of wished I had been there,

Pretty incredible how D3 has had some dominant teams like Mount Union, Wisconsin Whitewater and North Central, and having to go thru a real playoff to do it.

Let’s just say…NO ONE disputes who the D3 national champion is!
To me, their system is the best.
A 10 game regular season…followed by a very large playoff in which ALL conference champions get a bid, plus a few at larges from each region.
If only the caliber of talent/play wasn’t so low compared to the big-time.

North Central was insane this year. Last night was their closest game of the year. In the semifinals they beat Susquehanna 66-0!
Susquehanna is the team the knocked out my alma mater in the first round lol!
Aggie could spend a billion, and still not win enough and continue to disappoint their legion of fans…it’s who they ARE…
Meanwhile the FCS title game was well attended in Frisco (18k). Thanks Bison fans.
Actually looked and sounded like more Montana State fans. Great game.

Those FCS finals really get my interest-reminds me of the way the game used to be played by almost everyone. Guys on both sides of the ball really get after it every play, crowds are always into it on both sides, and no “superstars” that are going to play a little and then bench themselves. Also, think it was the Montana team that played with no sleeves in freezing weather. Probably laughed at what we call “cold”.
