How good is the MVFC

OleYSUfan:
The comments on moving to the FBS is great!!!!!

I have posted that many years ago and we still have many thinking the FCS playoff system is the way. The only way for increased attendance is playing and beating teams like: Pitt, Mac teams, and Big Ten teams. Making a lot more money and getting more nation recognition. Yes, it will cost more money, but it will be a big return for the future of YSU.

ysufan0505:
We can't even get into the FCS playoffs and you guys want to move up to FBS.... And win what, 2 or 3 games a year?

Penguin Nation:
5--

The MVFC should move to FBS level (maybe as a conference with East/West subdivisions).

Last year, YSU was 5-3 in the MVFC.  Throw in some MAC schools (inferior competition to MVFC games) and I think YSU would have a winning season in the FBS.....and there is a HUGE upside to this in terms of fan interest...travel budget....and potential enhanced Athletic Department revenue.

I hear what you guys are saying, but I'm saying as far as playing other FBS teams.... We struggle to win games now.... Don't see it happening.

Penguin Nation:
idk.....I see at least 6-6...

Sample schedule:

MVFC      5-3
MAC        1-1
BIG 10     0-2

Final season record:  6-6

I think that's a conservative estimation.  We beat Pitt, we were beating IL in the 4th.....ISUb just beat a MAC team.....even the Sycamore are eating the MAC for dinner.....Throw in a BIG 10 split and a MAC sweep and we're at 8-4...and maybe in a bowl game...
