Dakota Football

[Freeport]

Can y'all direct me to some good sources to read about the history of the Dakota programs? Is there any good documentary type footage out there to check out? Thanks!

North Dakota State exploded for touchdowns on all five of its possessions in the third quarter and turned the NCAA Division II football championship into a 51-11 rout over Indiana University of Pennsylvania.



Who the hell has a school name after 2 different states?

Who the hell wrote that sentence? "Exploded for touchdowns"? It doesn't even make sense.

PA state schools are name after the town the reside in. Kutztown, Bloomsburg etc. Indiana is a town is PA with a university, Hence Indiana of PA or IUP. Jimmy Stewart is from Indiana Pa.

There was a great production put together by NFL Films in the early/mid 90's called Football America. They documented several gotta-see-it-to-believe-it stories about the game from all corners of the country. They had a great segment on the NDSU/UND rivalry from back when both schools played outside still. (I think that the FargoDome had just been completed...)

The game was rediculously cold as it was tradition back then to play it last game of the year right before DII playoffs. Stupid UND won that game so it wasn't as good of a show as it could have been...

I'm too lazy to find a link for you...

Media guides from the last couple of years.

I don't think he was looking for message board stuff but moreso information from articles written on the Bison. If you want message boards here's another

Thanks for the links. I think I remember that Football in America clip but I can't seem to find it.

I'm really looking for stories about the rivalries, traditions, classic games, etc.

Maybe you can see if some 2002 or 2003 media guides are available??

I know NDSU has up to 2004 on their site, but 2003 would be the last season the instate teams played.
