The North Dakota State Bison and South Dakota Coyotes are set to clash in a highly anticipated Missouri Valley Football Conference opener at the Fargodome. After South Dakota's stunning 29-28 victory last year, NDSU is looking for revenge. The game takes place Saturday, September 27 at 11 a.m. PT/2 p.m. ET (12 p.m. MST).
Bison Seek to Rebound
NDSU, coming off a bye week, dominated its first three opponents and enters this game relatively healthy. Senior wide receiver Chris Harris may return after a foot injury, and linebacker Austin Altepeter is back from a calf injury. After losing two straight regular season games to the Coyotes, the Bison are eager to start the conference season strong.
Coyotes Aim for Another Upset
South Dakota started the season with two losses but has since evened its record to 2-2 with wins over Northern Colorado and Drake. Quarterback Aidan Bouman will make his fourth career start against NDSU, having thrown five touchdowns and four interceptions this year.
