[QUOTE="1939hotmagic, post: 366167, member: 1792"] Northern Colorado isn't just FCS level, at this point it's [B]2-7 [/B]FCS level, though they might be 3-7 after this weekend, facing a surprisingly poor Cal Poly squad. (Early in the season UNC had a respectable 21-41 loss to Colorado. ) Assuming Tech defeats Duke and/or Georgia, a game with the likes of Northern Colorado would be little more, probably, than a glorified scrimmage and a chance for guys deep on the depth chart to get some game time, something I consider a good thing for team morale (and it would be nice for those two redshirt frosh QBs to end the season by taking some snaps in a real game). A victory over Northern Colorado wouldn't get Tech a better bowl, because only one victory per season by a given FBS team over a FCS team [I]can count toward bowl eligibility[/I]. If the players want it and it can be done, great, do it. If Tech doesn't have to pay a mint for UNC to enjoy a money game, great. Frankly, I'd much prefer a Dec. 2 game with UTSA if it could be worked out -- an FBS-level foe (currently with a 5-4 record, and two games to come). [/QUOTE]
