The last 365 days have been long for South Dakota State, but the year probably seems short now that they see who they'll be lining up against in the FCS semifinals on Saturday afternoon. Almost a year ago to the day, Montana State knocked off the Jackrabbits 31-17 to punch a ticket to the national championship. Here we are again, and the stakes are…

North Dakota State has been the class of the FCS for the last decade-plus. The No. 3-ranked Bison have won nine of the last 11 FCS titles, including a 38-10 victory over Montana State in 2021, but at+155, are listed as the second choice to win another behind No. 1 South Dakota State (+140). The Jackrabbits beat North Dakota State 23-21 in the…

Outside of the Celebration Bowl, there are only seven games left on the FCS calendar and four of them go down this weekend. All eight teams still alive in the playoffs are the eight teams that received seeds in this year's tournament and after looking at these quarterfinal matchups coming up, it certainly seems like the committee got it on the nose…

This list will get knocked down from 24 to 16 to eight to four, and then it's national title time. This is NOT a ranking of the 24 best…

BOZEMAN - The Montana State football team's most recent memory against Northern Arizona is a good one: MSU won 49-31 in 2019 to break a three-game losing streak to the Lumberjacks. That game, MSU's most recent against NAU, was at Bobcat Stadium. The Bobcats haven't won at the Walkup Skydome since 2008. This year's MSU team is arguably better than…

BOZEMAN - The Idaho State football team doesn't have to dig deep for incentives to win Saturday's game at Montana State. ISU fell to 0-5 overall and 0-2 in Big Sky Conference play after a spirited home loss to No. 3 Montana last week. The Bengals are 10-31-1 against MSU in Bozeman, including a 27-9 defeat on Oct. 23, 2021. That was the first game…

The FCS season is rolling along and this week may be the biggest yet, at least in terms of the magnitude of games. Conference play is starting for several teams and lots of those teams have very important games on the slate this week.
