North Dakota State is back atop the FCS.
The Bison (14-1) won their sixth national title in seven years Saturday afternoon in Frisco, Texas, knocking off No. 1 seed and defending champion James Madison 17-13. Quarterback Easton Stick was named Most Outstanding Player with 192 total yards and a touchdown.
NDSU started strong, building a 17-6 lead at the half. But JMU seized momentum in the third with a touchdown run from Marcus Marshall. In a defensive battle, the game came down to a JMU fourth down incompletion at the Bison's 25-yard line with 58 seconds left in regulation.
The Bison's six program titles now match Georgia Southern for most championship wins in FCS history.

The really cool thing is we have only been in the FCS playoff eligible for 10 years now.
NDSU has a record of 158-38 since 2003, and 711-371–34 all time.
An I bragging yes I am.

Tried to get last minute tickets for this sense the game is always like 20 minutes from me but alas, I wasn’t able to pull it off.

Rock I was rooting like hell for the Bison. My father in law thought he needed to switch between the game and a western.....I knew I should have stayed home.
That is a machine you got there up north. Makes the Valley look good though.
