How anal is Frontier with checked back size?

I have a bag that's about 65 linear inches... do you think they'll try to hit me with oversize?

OVERALL DIMENSIONS Height:31.5in,Width:21.75in, Depth: 12in

I think it is exceedingly unlikely you have an issue checking a bag that is only slightly too big. If the bag isn't overweight they don't pay close attention.

Won;t that cost you twice as much? That seems like a painful solution.
