2021 FCS Spring Final Four

[Jake]

I think the FCS should always play in Spring, football for when there is no football.

Delaware (2003) and James Madison (2004, 2016) have won FCS titles. North Dakota State won 8 of the last 9 but they were eliminated by Sam Houston in the quarterfinals. Neither Sam Houston nor South Dakota State have won an FCS title.

JMU finished the season ranked #1 but SDSU got the 1-seed, so I'm hoping they settle it in the championship game. Both are favored this Saturday, but JMU will have to win on the road. They've done it before, beating North Dakota State on the road in the 2016 semis then beating Youngstown State in the championship game - Bo Pelini's finest hour at YSU.

No. 1 South Dakota State takes on unseeded Delaware on ESPN at noon ET on Saturday. Turn to ABC after that to watch No. 2 Sam Houston vs. No. 3 James Madison at 2:30 p.m. The winners meet in the national championship game on ABC at 2 p.m. on Sunday, May 16.

The team wearing these helmets is getting blown out 27-3 in the 2nd quarter. Go figure.

I will root against Delaware for all time unless they wise up and get rid of those horrific helmets.

Sam Houston making a big comeback.

edit: SH down by 17, then run off 28 straight in about 6 minutes.

James Madison led 24-3 at halftime and managed to lose, 38-35. That's what I get for betting on FCS football (had JMU -1.5).

Sam Houston with another late come back. FCS champs.
