Bummer. Hate seeing top talent leave the FCS to become a bottom tier FBS team. I understand it, do not get me wrong, but as an FCS fan- it's not fun to see. :thumbdown:

Calling Liberty top FCS talent is a stretch, IMO.

Fair- that checks out. However, they do have a stadium nearly the size of Washington-Grizzly and a national trademark any typical college football fan will recognize. It is a loss for the FCS and adds to a more and more diluted bottom tier FBS.
At best, they eventually move to the Sun Belt and win a conference title or two, but I'm not expecting a lot of success for them. I know there's been some talk of them trying be the next BYU (an independent school that is lifted by it's fan base), but I don't see them reaching that level.

UNC looked dull this season? The Bears nearly pulled the upset against the Eagles in Washington, beat Montana and finished with a winning season. I don't think UNC had a very dull or "pedestrian" season at all.

You're contradicting yourself. Pedestrian means dull. UNC's game against EWU was anything but dull. The Bears had many games that were pretty exciting. Thus, "almost" are in themselves not pedestrian.

Losing 49-31 isn't really almost pulling an upset. The game was closer than that score, but EWU was never really in any kind of danger to lose that game. A more appropriate game to talk about would be the 2015 game in Greeley. THAT was a close game. Not the one in Cheney this year. And when a program has never made the playoffs in its Division I history yes that is very pedestrian.
