It's a Thanksgiving cornucopia of goodness as North Dakota State looks to clinch an undefeated regular season and the top overall seed in the FCS playoffs. But not so fast,  controversy and debate lurk in the shadows! On the eve of the FCS Playoff Selection show, fans from Fargo to Brookings, and from Harrisonburg to Kennesaw, debate where the committee will place their teams on the Road to Frisco. 

Does the committee pair the top two Missouri Valley Football Conference teams, NDSU and South Dakota State, on the same side of the bracket? Do they do the same thing to Eastern Washington and Weber State? Is Kennesaw State deserving of a Top 4 seed? Questions, questions, and questions! Could James Madison be coming to Fargo for a heavyweight quarterfinal matchup with the Bison, and will the Bison see the University of North Dakota in a second round contest? Swany is joined by Nolan P. Schmidt and Chase Miller for the FCS Face the Nation roundtable to provide you with answers! Swany and Nolan say the committee splits up NDSU and SDSU. Chase says nope, SDSU gets the No. 4 seed and a potential semifinal with the Bison. 

Swany addresses speculation about Kansas State being in the market for a new football coach, and why Bison head coach Chris Klieman makes sense for that job.  Gene Taylor, the former legendary and iconic NDSU athletic director, is now the AD at Kansas State. Swany Says if the Kansas State job comes open, the Bison will be in the market for a new head coach. 

Put a few logs on the fire, pour a warm beverage, and kickback with your old pals, this week, on Herd It Hear With Swany.
