It's an even numbered year, which means North Dakota State and South Dakota State must play in the playoffs. It's happened in 2012, 2014, 2016, 2018, 2022 and now this year. You can set your watch to it. NDSU has hosted all but one of those games, which was the national championship game in Frisco. The Jackrabbits have accomplished nearly everything in FCS football, except beating the Bison in Fargo in the postseason. SDSU quarterback Mark Gronowski can break the FCS all-time wins record with a victory Saturday, taking the spot of former Bison great Easton Stick. Gronowski tied Stick's record with SDSU's win over Incarnate Word last week. NDSU enters at 12-2, with wins over Mercer and Abilene Christian to reach its 13th semifinal in the last 14 years. The Bison enter as an underdog, much like they were in the regular season matchup in October, which was a 13-9 NDSU win. It is the final game inside the Fargodome for Bison quarterback Cam Miller, who is trying to lead NDSU to its third trip to Frisco in his four years as the starting quarterback. The Forum's Jeff Kolpack and WDAY's Dom Izzo preview the matchup and who has the inside track to win the game Saturday.

Today is the Dakota Bowl! This iconic game day celebrates high school football, with teams from across the state coming together for a full day of championship action. The event, first held in 1993 at the Fargodome, changed the football landscape in North Dakota by bringing all class championship games together in one day.

11/15/24: Joel Heitkamp is broadcasting live from the Dakota Bowl at the Fargodome, and is joined by Congressman and Governor-elect, Kelly Armstrong.

Reporter Ryan Collingwood, who covers the Missouri State football team for the Springfield Daily Citizen, joins host Mike McFeely to talk about the big game this week between the Bears and North Dakota State at the Fargodome. Ryan and Mike go back a long way in covering the FCS, so Ryan offers a pragmatic and reasoned perspective on the ballgame. The Bears, like the Bison, are 6-0 in the Missouri Valley Football Conference, which is somewhat surprising considering Missouri State's long and not-very-successful history in FCS. But Ryan says quarterback Jacob Clark, a transfer from Minnesota, is the real deal and he and the Bears' offense is potent. It should be a good test for the No. 1-ranked Bison.

North Dakota State and Northern Iowa will play in a football game inside the Fargodome for the first time in three years Saturday afternoon.   The Panthers last trip to Fargo coincided with the last time UNI made the FCS Playoffs, 2021. The Panthers posted a 6-5 regular season record and lost in the first round to Eastern Washington.   Since that game in Cheney, Washington, the Panthers have posted a 14-16 record, including six straight losses in 2024 after a 2-0 start. Inconsistent quarterback play and poor defense has plagued UNI in that stretch as they come to Fargo this weekend.   Panthers head coach Mark Farley has gone with sophomore Matthew Schecklman at quarterback over the last handful of games, he threw for 270 yards and three touchdowns last week in UNI's 49-42 loss to Missouri State.   The Bison enter on an eight-game win streak and are getting a couple of players back this week. Cornerback Jailen Duffie will return after missing the last two games with concussion symptoms, defensive tackle/end Will Mostaert will be back after missing last week's game with a hip injury.   Wide receiver Mekhi Collins is expected to return as well after missing last week's game.   The Forum's Jeff Kolpack and WDAY's Dom Izzo discuss the matchup with Northern Iowa, the potential return of Cole Wisniewski to the lineup and the upcoming renovation vote on the Fargodome.

10/29/24: David Suppes is the President of the Fargodome Authority, and he joins Joel on "News and Views" to talk about the local Measure 1, regarding the Fargodome sales tax. David tells the listeners what the Fargodome needs from renovations, and how passing this measure would help the community. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Fargo Measure 1 would provide a one-quarter of one percent sales tax to fund Fargodome remodeling and ongoing maintenance. The tax would be in place for 20 years.

North Dakota State and South Dakota State will meet for the Dakota Marker for the 21st time Saturday night at the Fargodome. This will mark the first night regular season game in Fargo since the 2016 season opener, when NDSU beat Charleston Southern in overtime. SDSU comes into this game with a 5-1 record, having won five straight after a season opening loss to Oklahoma State, that snapped a 29-game win streak. The Jackrabbits haven't lost a game to an FCS team since December of 2021, in the FCS semifinals at Montana State.  They are trying to win in Fargo for a third straight time, something that hasn't happened since FDR was president. North Dakota State has a six-game win streak after losing its season opener at Colorado. The Bison are a beat up unit on defense, losing three starters last week at Southern Illinois. Preseason all-conference selection Dylan Hendricks is out and will miss the rest of the season with a knee injury, while middle linebacker Nick Kubitz is questionable after he suffered a concussion last week. The Jackrabbits have won five straight in this series, forcing ten turnovers against the Bison, while NDSU hasn't forced any turnovers from SDSU.

Join the A-Team Live as they recap the 63-13 HOBO DAY Beatdown of the Youngstown State Penguins. In this Episode the A-Team will also give their analysis of what it will take to beat the red-hot Bison on their home turf next Saturday.

10/04/24: Ahead of the big football game at the Fargodome this weekend where the NDSU Bison will host the UND Fighting Hawks, Joel Heitkamp is joined on KFGO by Josh Swanson.  Josh serves on the NDSU Team Makers Board of Directors and enjoys tailgating for Bison football, and can be found most winters in his court side seats to Bison basketball games. He also writes a column and hosts a weekly podcast for Bison Illustrated magazine, advised the NDSU Blue Key student group, and is an active participant in NDSU's Foundations of Leadership mentoring program.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Fighting Hawks travel to Fargo Saturday to take on in-state rival NDSU at the Fargodome.  We bring Hawks radio announcer, Jack Michaels in to the studio to preview the game (we also make Jack stick around to play a game with us).

North Dakota State will attempt to win a 26th consecutive home opener Saturday when Tennessee State makes its debut at Gate City Bank Field at the Fargodome. The second ranked Bison will enter relatively healthy after a 31-26 loss to Colorado last Thursday night. Quarterback Cam Miller is coming off a Missouri Valley Offensive Player of the Week game, combining for three touchdowns and throwing for 277 yards. The NDSU defense will have to contend with former Ohio Valley Conference rookie of the year Draylen Ellis. The TSU quarterback threw for 356 yards and three touchdowns in the Tigers season-opening win over Mississippi Valley State. TSU is led by former Heisman Trophy winner Eddie George, who is in his fourth year of leading the Tigers. George had high praise for Miller earlier this week, calling him, "the best quarterback we've seen in our time here." Jalal Dean is a talented wide receiver, the former Tennessee Tech Eagle transferred to Tennessee State and had a big debut, going for 144 yards and a touchdown last week. The Forum's Mike McFeely and WDAY's Dom Izzo preview the matchup and look ahead to other spotlight games in the FCS this weekend.

WDAY-TV sports host and North Dakota State play-by-play broadcaster Dom Izzo joins host Mike McFeely of The Forum to talk about the spring football transfer portal opening and the NDSU spring game coming up this weekend (it's actually a "showcase," not a game). So far — and we emphasize so far — no Bison players have entered the portal in the first couple of days it's been open in the spring window. Other schools have not been so lucky. We'll have to keep watching to see if any NDSU players leave the program, and how important they are to the Bison. Also, Dom lays out a few positions and players he'll keep an eye on during Saturday's Bison football showcase at the Fargodome. Which young players will pop? Who needs to step up? What position groups have the most questions?

The FCS Playoffs kick off tomorrow in eight cities across the country and for the first time in 13 years, Fargo is one of them.   North Dakota State will face Drake in the opening round Saturday at 2:30 p.m. at Gate City Bank Field at the Fargodome.   The Bison (8-3) will face the Bulldogs (8-3) for the second time in the last 15 months. Drake came to Fargo for the 2022 season opener, a 56-14 NDSU win.   Todd Stepsis is in his fifth season as head coach, who's team has seen the top of the Missouri Valley this season, losing 55-7 and 70-7 to North Dakota and South Dakota State respectively.   The Forum's Jeff Kolpack and WDAY's Dom Izzo preview the matchup between the teams and what the other FCS playoff matchups look like.

Saturday's North Dakota State game at the Fargodome may have the most at-stake during the regular season since the Bison championship dynasty began in 2011.   That final regular season home game in 2011, NDSU was matched up with Youngstown State and had a chance to clinch its first Missouri Valley Football Conference title. The Bison raced out to a 21-10 second quarter lead, only to see the Penguins rally and win the game 27-24, denying NDSU a chance to clinch the conference at home.   NDSU had to wait a week and win the league in Macomb, Illinois the following week. The Bison don't want to put off a win this week as they welcome in Southern Illinois for a monumental football game.   Each team enters with a 6-3 record and 3-3 mark in the Missouri Valley Football Conference. The winner will get to the elusive 7-win plateau and likely cinch up a playoff berth. If the Bison were to lose, they would have to win a road game at Northern Iowa next week to be considered for the 24-team playoff.   SIU has had an up and down season much like the Bison. SIU started 3-0, which included an FBS win over Northern Illinois, and a road win against Southeast Missouri State. They have a bumpy road in conference play, which included a 31-3 blasting by Youngstown State and home losses to South Dakota State and South Dakota.   The Salukis were held to just 17 combined points in losses to SDSU and USD.   Nick Hill's team has never won in Fargo, losing all six games, including a 38-7 playoff defeat in the second round in 2021.   The Forum's Jeff Kolpack and WDAY's Dom Izzo preview the game and the implications surrounding it. They also discuss Senior Day and the players that could potentially return next season.

North Dakota State wraps up the month of October with a first-time opponent, as Missouri Valley conference newbie Murray State comes to the Fargodome this weekend.   Murray State was a founding member of the Ohio Valley Conference and left in July as the school wanted to join the Missouri Valley Conference to enhance its basketball profile. The football team was added to the MVFC in April 2022, becoming the 12th school in the league.   The Racers are led by 59-year-old head coach Dean Hood, who's trying to end a 22-year playoff drought for MSU. Murray State last made the postseason in 2001.   North Dakota State enters off a 52-7 win over Western Illinois to improve the Bison to a mark of 5-2. They may be shorthanded again this week as tight end Joe Stoffel will likely miss the game with a banged up shoulder. Stoffel fell hard on his right shoulder as he scored a touchdown against Western Illinois and left the game.   Head coach Matt Entz says a rotation of Carson Williams, Hunter Brozio and Finn Diggins could likely replace Stoffel in the game this weekend.   The Bison are still searching for a 100-yard rusher out of the running back room, which has yet to happen this season. Barika Kpeenu rushed for 95 yards last week against the Leathernecks.   The Forum's Jeff Kolpack and WDAY's Dom Izzo preview the matchup between Murray State and NDSU and look ahead to the final four weeks of the season as the playoff picture starts to come into focus.

The second half of the 2023 FCS college football season begins Saturday for North Dakota State and in essence, the Bison season really begins this weekend. NDSU after being flattened by North Dakota last Saturday, returns home to host winless Western Illinois at Gate City Bank Field at the Fargodome. This game centers more around how the Bison play and who plays for NDSU this weekend than anything that the Leathernecks do. WIU is leaving the Missouri Valley Football Conference after this season for the Ohio Valley Conference, a move that became official in May. The Leathernecks have not won a football game in nearly two full years, entering on 19-game losing streak. The Forum's Jeff Kolpack and WDAY's Dom Izzo discuss the issues surrounding this year's Bison football team and where things go from here. They also discuss what potentially may happen over the final five games of the season.
