North Dakota State and Montana State Set for FCS Championship Clash
In an eagerly anticipated matchup, the North Dakota State Bison (13-2) will face the Montana State Bobcats (15-0) in the FCS football championship on Monday, January 6, at Toyota Stadium in Frisco, Texas. Kickoff is scheduled for 7 p.m. ET.
North Dakota State earned its spot in the championship following a series of impressive playoff victories, besting Abilene Christian and Mercer before edging out South Dakota State 28-21 in the semifinals. The Bison, a powerhouse in FCS football, have demonstrated their resilience and experience under pressure.
Conversely, the top-seeded Bobcats have displayed dominance throughout the postseason, scoring over 30 points in each of their playoff games while limiting their opponents—Idaho, UT Martin, and South Dakota—to fewer than 20 points. This consistent performance has solidified their status as serious contenders.
Historically, Montana State has struggled against North Dakota State, losing their last five encounters, including a nail-biting overtime defeat in December 2023, where the Bison triumphed 35-34. The upcoming championship promises to be an electrifying contest as both teams vie for supremacy.
The game will be broadcast nationally on ESPN, featuring play-by-play commentary from Dave Flemming, analysis from Brock Osweiler, and sideline reporting by Stormy Buonantony. Fans looking to stream the game can do so via Fubo, which is currently offering a promotional package for new users.
