North Dakota State Aims for Historic 10th Straight Title
The North Dakota State Bison football team will face the South Dakota Coyotes in the Summit League championship game on Saturday, November 19th.
The Bison are seeking their 10th consecutive Summit League title, a record in FCS history. They have won 39 straight conference games, the longest active streak in the country.
The Coyotes are making their first appearance in the Summit League championship game. They finished the regular season with a 7-4 record, including a 5-2 mark in conference play.
The game will be played at the Fargodome in Fargo, North Dakota. Kickoff is set for 12:00 p.m. CT.
Keys to the Game
- North Dakota State's offense has been one of the most prolific in the FCS this season. The Bison are averaging 41.4 points per game, second in the nation.
- South Dakota's defense will need to find a way to stop North Dakota State's high-powered offense. The Coyotes are allowing 23.7 points per game, 22nd in the FCS.
- The weather could play a factor in the game. The forecast for Fargo on Saturday calls for snow and cold temperatures.
Prediction
The Bison are a heavy favorite to win the game. They have a more experienced team and have been playing at a higher level all season.
However, the Coyotes are a dangerous team and they will be playing with nothing to lose. If they can find a way to slow down North Dakota State's offense, they have a chance to pull off the upset.
My prediction: North Dakota State 34, South Dakota 17
