Bruce Edwards Says Ags Will Go FBS in 5-10 Years The thought of this is enticing, in theory. Personally I would love nothing more than to grow the UCD football fan base, have a roaring sold-out stadium and compete with the likes of Cal and Stanford. Realistically, however, teams that have made the jump from FCS to FBS are pretty much just bottom of the barrel FBS teams. The last thing I would want is to end up like Idaho-- average 1,000 in attendance in a 16,000 capacity stadium (did not fact check), and have to drop back down because no one watches their games.
Edit: According to Wikipedia, Idaho averaged around 10,000 for home games but I used to work there and 10,000 is definitely a ballooned number.
