Disagree because 1A and 1AA just sounds cooler, and I'm all about late 90s, early 2000s chic in that way.
So I like that old branding that's gone.
But anyway, yes, congrats to Montana State.
Gets to break up the Dakota State duopoly and was the best team in FCS this year.
given the way the chips fell.
I mean, this was the best team.
They beat Montana twice.
Illinois State had been on this incredible magic carpet ride, first team to win four road games in the playoffs.
Really felt during the second half of this game like they had a divine mandate to win it all, and Montana State ultimately just said no.
Indeed.
Also, this happened on Sunday night.
This was the Division III national title game at the Stag Bowl.
I want to congratulate Wisconsin River Falls with a pretty major upset over a dynasty program, North Central, that's in Illinois, to win the Stag Bowl.
It was 24-14.
The quarterback for River Falls, Caleb Blaha, broke Joe Burrow's record for individual yards in a single season across every division of NCAA football.
North Central was in its sixth title game in a row, had won three of them previously.
I don't think you could even get a spread on a Division III football game, actually, in most places.
I think the consensus was double-digit underdog-ish.
was about fair coming into this game.
And the Falcons of Wisconsin River Falls go out and do it.
