SIU heads to the Fargodome on Saturday to face a Bison team that's having a shockingly down season by their standards. Meet the Bison: It's been 13 years since North Dakota State lost more than 3 games in a season, SIU has a chance to hand them loss #4 on Saturday. North Dakota has won 9 National Championships among 3 head coaches in that span but this season hasn't lived up to their amazing standards. The Bison started the season 3-0 with wins over Eastern Washington and Central Arkansas but suffered a 24-19 loss to South Dakota at home. 2 weeks later, they lost 49-24 at North Dakota. After wins over Western lllinois and Murray State, they suffered a 33-16 loss at South Dakota State. North Dakota State is coached by Matt Entz, in his 5th season as head coach. Entz served as defensive coordinator under Chris Kileman and took over for him when Kileman left for Kansas State. In his first season as head coach, Entz led the Bison to a perfect season winning the National Championship. They took a step back the next season in the COVID year with Trey Lance opting out but won another National Championship in his 3rd season. Last season, Entz and the Bison lost the National Championship to South Dakota State in what might turn out to be a changing of the guard in the FCS. The Quarterback of the Bison is 6-1 Senior Cam Miller. Miller was a 3 star recruit out of Solon, Iowa and has made starts in each of their last 4 seasons. Last season, Miller started all 15 games for the Bison and ranked 3rd in the FCS in completion percentage. Miller is a true dual-threat QB, he rushed for 561 yards last year and had 15 rushing touchdowns. So far this season, he's rushed for 9 touchdowns and has thrown for 1,578 yards and has 12 passing touchdowns. Miller leads the Bison in rushing yards, attempts, and rushing touchdowns. North Dakota State's leading receiver is 6-7 Senior Zach Mathis. Mathis has been with the Bison since 2018 where he played one game that season. This season, he's having his best season catching 37 passes for 546 yards, and 5 touchdowns (all career highs). On the defensive side, 6-3 Senior Defensive End Dylan Hendricks has made an impact. Hendricks leads the Bison in tackles for losses (6.5) and sacks (4). 6-4 Senior Safety Cole Wisniewski leads the Bison in interceptions with 4. Massey Ratings: Massey Ratings has North Dakota State winning 27-17 and gives the Bison an 76% chance of winning.

We are not going to win by kicking all field goals.

nDSu winning the yardage totals 231-146. no chance if that continues.

Great start to the 2nd half. A give up rush play, a dink pass, and a ridiculous run up the middle. Punt.
