Game Preview
This year, the FCS championship game will deliver a delicious rivalry between the North Dakota State Bison and the South Dakota State Jackrabbits. The no. 3 seed North Dakota State (12-2) will have a shot to win 10 FCS national championships in 12 seasons this year, and to cement the division’s greatest-ever dynasty. The Bison are also the defending champions. They beat Montana State to win the 2021 national title.
On the other hand, the no. 1 seed South Dakota State Jackrabbits (13-1) will gun for their first-ever FCS national title. It’s their second championship appearance in three seasons. They fell short by 23-21 to Sam Houston in 2020.
However, the Jackrabbits will feel a lot of confidence ahead of the big game as they had the Bison’s number lately. They won three in a row against their rival, including mid-October’s 23-21 victory. That victory eventually helped the Jackrabbits to clinch the conference title – the first outright Missouri Valley championship for them.
You don’t have to miss the action to know if the North Dakota State clinches another FCS national title, or the South Dakota State wins their first-ever title.
