In the waning days of the 22nd century, Earth had long been a cradle of past civilizations, its surface scarred by the echoes of countless histories. Among these, the ancient traditions of Japan had persisted, evolving with the times, merging with the cybernetic revolutions that swept the globe.

It was the eve of the NCAA Division I Football Championship Subdivision finals, an event that had transcended its athletic roots to become a cultural phenomenon, blending the old with the new. On this night, a figure emerged from the shadows of Kyoto's digital temples, an avatar of tradition and technology, known only as the Oni Quarterback.

The Oni, once a mythic demon of lore, was reimagined for the new era. This enigmatic player wore an armor that was a masterpiece of artistry and engineering, imbued with ancient symbols and nanotech fabrics. His mask, a fearsome visage of red and white with draconic horns, flickered with holographic fire, a nod to the legends of old, while his eyes glinted with the serene focus of a practiced athlete.

As the Oni stepped onto the neon-lit field, the crowd, a mix of humans and androids, fell into an awed hush. His opponents from the other side of the world, the Titans of Tech, watched with wary fascination. The game that unfolded was unlike any other. With each throw, the Oni Quarterback moved like a spirit of wind, his passes sharp as whispers, his strategies deep as ancient wisdom. The augmented reality of the field displayed dragons and phoenixes rising with each touchdown, a dance of victory and valor.

The Titans, enhanced with their own cybernetic prowess, pushed back with the relentless force of progress. But on that field, technology met tradition, and the Oni's plays seemed to be guided by the hand of history itself.

As the final seconds ticked away, the score was tied. The Oni Quarterback, standing calm amidst the digital storm, called for an ancient play, long forgotten by the modern archives but encoded in the memory of his armor. The ball spiraled into the future as the clock hit zero, and the Oni leapt into the end zone, bridging centuries in a single bound.

When the dust settled, the Oni Quarterback had won not just the game but the hearts of all who witnessed his performance. The NCAA Division I Football Championship Subdivision had seen many champions, but none quite like the figure who now stood at the center of the field, a silent guardian of the past, a herald of the future.

As he raised the trophy, a blend of old craftsmanship and new world metals, it was clear: In this age where the lines between humanity and technology blurred, tradition would not be left behind—it would adapt, thrive, and inspire generations to come, just as the Oni Quarterback had on this historic night.

Army Black Knights Football - from Independent to AAC

The Army Black Knights Football team, or Army for short, is the United States Military Academy outfit in college football. The team's colors are black, gold, and gray, and they have been playing since 1890. Army is in the Division I Football Bowl Subdivision (FBS) of the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA). Army has played independent football since its inception except between the years of 1998 and 2004 when they were with Conference USA. Things will change for the team in 2024 since Army announced it was joining the American Athletic Conference, becoming the 14th member.

NCAA Football Bowl Subdivision independent institutions (FBS independents), such as the United States Military Academy (Army West Point), run football programs separate from NCAA-affiliated conferences. Army West Point chose to be independent mainly because it did not need the income from television.

Army plays annual games against the Air Force Falcons and Navy Midshipmen, with the three teams competing for the Commander-in-Chief's Trophy. College football teams typically play 12 games per football season. The Black Knights of West Point schedule games with non-service teams to reach this mark.

West Point's six-year run with Conference USA, from 1998 to 2004, was largely unsuccessful. The team recorded 3-33 in its last three years in the league.

With West Point's past conference experience, one would expect them to remain independent. However, the revenue from TV and bowl appearances is making college football playoffs important for teams. Also, scheduling games outside of conferences is increasingly complicated.

The athletic director of the United States Military Academy, Mike Buddie, said Army will be more competitive in AAC than in Conference USA, and that college football dynamics have changed. The AAC entry will see Army in eight conference games, with four at West Point's home, Michie Stadium.

The games against Air Force and Navy will continue as non-conference games for the Commander-in-Chief's Trophy. Army football has partnered with CBS Sports Network for TV rights, with the contract extending to 2028. The network will exclusively show Army home games, while ESPN, AAC's TV partner, will carry Army away games. As a football-only member of AAC, West Point will have a share of college football earnings from ESPN.

West Point has produced three Heisman Trophy winners: in 1945, 1946, and 1958. The conference entry might see the team having more shots at the Heisman since it will be involved in more games. The Army-Navy football teams' rivalry may get a boon from this move as well. The regular end-of-the-season Commander in Chief's trophy game between the two rivals will continue to be held while the two teams may also meet in the AAC championship. If the two teams finish as first and second in the league, they will play the final against each other. While it is a small chance, fans can hope for it.

In the Black Knights' first season, they will play UAB, East Carolina, Rice, and UTSA at home, then Florida Atlantic, North Texas, Temple, and Tulsa for away games. Army's most recent meeting with any of the teams was with UTSA in 2023, ending at 37-29 in favor of the Black Knights.

South Dakota State: 2023 NCAA Division I FCS National Champions

FRISCO, Texas -- Mark Gronowski ran for a touchdown and threw for another after halftime as South Dakota State won its second straight Football Championship Subdivision title, beating Montana 23-3 on Sunday.

The Jackrabbits (15-0) extended their overall winning streak to 29 games, including their win over North Dakota State in last year's FCS game for their first national title.

South Dakota State had an impressive game-opening drive, but led only 7-3 at halftime. Gronowski, the quarterback starting his third FCS title game, then bulled into the end zone for a 10-yard score midway through the third quarter, and on the next possession threw a 23-yard TD to Jadon Janke.

Gronowski finished 13-of-21 passing for 175 yards and ran eight times for 62 yards. The Jackrabbits outgained Montana 372-273.

Montana's 27 playoff appearances are the most in the second tier of Division I football. National champions in 1995 and 2001, the Grizzlies (13-2) have now finished as the runner-up six times, four under coach Bobby Hauck.

This was the Grizzlies' first title game since 2009, when they were the runner-up for the third time in Hauck's first seven seasons. Hauck then left for FBS team UNLV and also was on staff at San Diego State before returning to Montana in 2018.

Less than two weeks after South Dakota State was crowned champions last year, John Stiegelmeier retired after 26 seasons as head coach. He was succeeded by defensive coordinator Jimmy Rogers, a former Jackrabbits linebacker who was captain of their first playoff team in 2009 -- when they lost to Montana after blowing a 27-point lead.

Both teams had only one possession in the first quarter Sunday. Montana's opening drive spilled into the first play of the second quarter, when on its 15th play, running back Eli Gillman was stuffed by Jackrabbits linebacker Adam Bock for no gain on fourth-and-goal from the 1.

South Dakota State had opened the game with a 75-play, 11-play drive. Gronowski completed his first five passes for 55 yards and converted a third-and-4 with a 9-yard keeper right before Isaiah Davis' 6-yard TD run.

That put the Jackrabbits ahead to stay, though they had a couple of costly mistakes before halftime.

A few plays after Bock's stop, one of his 11 tackles, Gronowski had a pass intercepted by Corbin Walker that Montana turned into a field goal for its only points. South Dakota State also had a turnover when punting, as the ball ricocheted off one of its players and recovered by the Griz, though they punted it back.

THE TAKEAWAY

Montana: Playmaking quarterback Clifton McDowell, who had been 11-0 as the Griz starter, was under increased pressure, especially after halftime. He completed 22 of 39 passes for 165 yards, but was sacked four times. After he was stripped of the ball when being sacked late in the third quarter, 295-yard defensive tackle Ryan Van Marel came up with it.

South Dakota State: In their third title game appearance in four seasons, the Jackrabbits became the first team since North Dakota State (2017-19) to repeat as champions. It was another stellar defensive performance in this playoff run for South Dakota State, which had two lopsided shutout victories (41-0 and 59-0) in its previous three games.

UP NEXT

Montana: The Big Sky champion Grizzlies take on one of SDSU's Missouri Valley Conference rivals in their 2024 opener. They host Missouri State on Aug. 31.

South Dakota State: The Jackrabbits open next season on the road Aug. 31 at Big 12 team Oklahoma State, the first major conference team they will play since a 7-3 loss at Iowa of the Big Ten in the 2022 opener that was their last loss.

Nick Saban is outspoken and often colorful. Here are

the top 10 Saban quotes from his tenure at Alabama,

with some of the harsher expletives deleted:

1. "And they ran through our ass like (crap) through a

tin horn, man, and we could not stop them. Could not

stop them."

- Saban referenced a tougher-than-expected 2011

victory over Georgia Southern before last season's vic-

tory over Charleston Southern, another Football Bowl

Subdivision team

2. "So I want everybody to think here for a second.

How much does this game mean to you? 'Cause it if

means something to you, you can't stand still. You

understand? You play fast. You play strong. You go

out there and dominate the man you're playing against

and you make his ass quit. That's our trademark.

That's our M.O. as a team. That's what people know

us as."

- Saban's pregame speech to the team before a 2008

victory at LSU was captured on videotape and replayed

often

3. "I want everybody here to know, this is not the end.

This is the beginning."

- Saban was prophetic at the celebration event after

Alabama won the 2009 national championship

4. "Mediocre people hate high achievers, and high

achievers hate mediocre people."

- This quote from an appearance on the CBS show

"60 Minutes" summed up a lot about Saban and some

of his top players

5. "If it was up to you, we're six-foot under already.

We're dead and buried and gone. Gone. So, if that

was the case, we'd have to get some respirators out or

something

down there to put life back in people."

- Saban after Alabama's 2015 victory over Georgia

after talk from some pundits tha UA's dynasty was over

following a loss two weeks earlier to Ole Miss

6. "There were no arguments. Those are called

ass-chewings."

- Saban's description of his shouting at offensive

coordinator Lane Kiffin during a victory over Western

Kentucky this season

7. "Settle the (heck) down."

- Saban to AJ McCarron when the quarterback got

too hyped up during a 2011 game at Florida

8. "We're not going to talk about what we're going

to accomplish. We're going to talk about how we're

going to do it."

- Saban talking about his process during his intro-

ductory press conference in 2006

9. "We kind of have a younger generation now that

doesn't always get told no. They don't always get told,

"This is exactly how you need to do it.' So, they have

this illusion they have all these choices. But the fact of

the matter is, if you want to be good, you really don't

have a lot of choices because it takes what it takes."

- Saban in 2015 after three former UA players were

arrested

10. "Changes in history usually occur after some kind

of catastrophic event. It may be 9/11, which sort of

changed the spirit of American relative to catastrophic

events. Pearl Harbor kind of got us ready for World

War II, and that was a catastrophic event."

- Saban evoked images of major tragedies after a

2007 loss to Louisiana-Monroe, briefly creating a con-

troversy over his comparisons

Can UGA Bulldogs Crush the 49-Point Spread Against Tennessee-Martin? Historic Favored Status at Stake!

The University of Georgia (UGA) Bulldogs are gearing up for an exciting football season, and the odds are heavily in their favor as they prepare to face off against Tennessee-Martin. The betting lines are showing a staggering 49-point spread favoring Georgia, making them the undeniable favorites in this matchup. This game marks a historic moment, as it's the sixth time in recent history that UGA has been favored by such a massive margin.

UGA's dominance in previous seasons, under the guidance of coaches Kirby Smart and Mark Richt, has seen them as imposing favorites against teams like Nicholls, Samford, Charleston Southern, and Murray State. In those instances, point spreads ranged from -49.5 to -53.5, showcasing the Bulldogs' superiority. In 2015, Mark Richt's team was also a 49-point favorite over Southern. However, despite these overwhelming odds, UGA has never managed to cover the spread when favored by at least 49 points.

The challenge ahead for UGA is not just winning the game but winning by a margin of 49 points or more to meet the spread. Achieving such a feat in college football, where competition can be fierce and unpredictable, is no easy task.

UGA enters this season with a strong offensive lineup, boasting nine players with starting experience, including quarterback Carson Beck, who takes the reins from Stetson Bennett, now with the Los Angeles Rams. The team also features standout talents like tight end Brock Bowers, the recipient of the prestigious John Mackey Award in 2022. Last season, the Bulldogs were known for their high-scoring offense, averaging an impressive 41.1 points per game.

The offensive line is poised to return three of its five starters, and the team is determined to fill the gaps left by key players who have moved on to the NFL. Additionally, the Bulldogs are welcoming back a significant number of defensive players with starting experience, aiming to maintain their impressive defensive performance, allowing only 14.3 points per game in the previous season.

UGA's special teams are not to be underestimated, featuring talented players like punter Brett Thorson and fierce competition for the placekicker position. The team is eager to build on the successes of previous seasons.

Their upcoming opponent, Tennessee-Martin, belongs to the FCS (Football Championship Subdivision), and while UGA is undoubtedly the heavy favorite, college football has a knack for delivering surprises.

UGA comes into the 2023 season riding impressive winning streaks, including a remarkable 17-game overall winning streak and an astonishing 27 consecutive wins in regular-season games. Their home turf has also been a fortress, with an 18-game winning streak.

As UGA strives to maintain its position as a powerhouse in college football, fans worldwide will be closely watching to see if they can not only secure victory but cover the formidable 49-point spread against Tennessee-Martin. The Bulldogs aim to extend their winning streaks, and their journey promises to be one filled with excitement and anticipation.

My Facebook Page's Comments Section Wanted A QB Rankings Article. Now You'll Suffer, Too

For the record, I hate QB ranking articles. I hate listicles. I hate blogs that force writers to do listicles (and still don’t pay flat fees for them). Unfortunately, however, I have fostered a community of degenerates, and us degenerates love a chance to spew hot takes from the fires of Lake Minnetonka. We love to see who has the balls to go out on a limb and defend themselves in the comments section.

We’re barbarians. Heathens, even.

As we revel in the hilarity, however, we also practice a slight bit of intellectualism. Here at 904 SAD, you can have any opinion you want.

Well, as long as you can back it up.

This is why writing an article about the best returning quarterbacks in college football is difficult for me. Shedeur Sanders was the best QB in HBCU football last year, but North Carolina Central’s signal caller (and his Right Guard) put on a clinic in the Celebration Bowl last year. Also, NFL wise, we can’t tell who is worse between Zach Wilson and Trey Lance. Mainly because Trey Lance never plays. All that aside, Zach Wilson and Trey Lance were superstars at BYU (a Group of 5 Independent) and North Dakota State (a 1-AA powerhouse). They both went in the Top 3 of the NFL Draft and each of their franchises regret the picks to this day.

So, pro-level projections aren’t gonna be a thing in this article.

A numbered list won’t be present either.

Instead, we are going to use the written word to find out who the *best* returning starter in FBS or FCS college football is. Sorry D2, D3, NAIA, and NJCAA gunslingers. I’m not being an elitist. Unfortunately, us small school alums know all too well that you’re just gonna end up transferring to a D1 school the first chance you get either way (Why, Austin Reed? Why?).

THE LANDSCAPE

is shit.

Even if you take out the pro potential of the guys available for evaluation, Caleb Williams probably shouldn’t have won the Heisman last year. Come to think of it, Drake Maye wasn’t even a finalist for the damn thing. Unfortunately, that happens when you go 9-5 with a Power 5 schedule. Meaning ya lost 5 games. Meaning it’s hard to be the best player in college football when you can’t beat the best players in college football at least ten times (Lamar Jackson Somewhere: Hey!).

Also, picking Caleb Williams or Drake Maye is too easy. I mean, after all, the correct answer is either one of them. One is being coached by Lincoln Riley and the other one is what Arch Manning is supposed to be.

To make matters even worse, there are a lot of pedestrian fifth-year seniors and pandemmy-waiver dynamos who haven’t even broken 5,000 yards in their entire careers yet. There's also guys like Bo Nix who had one of the best offensive lines in the world, put up some phenomenal stats his first year in a new environment, and still couldn’t leverage his years of SEC experience to make a real run in the Pacific 12. 10-3 ain’t a bad record at all, but Oregon has been pumping out future Hall of Famers and All-Pros for years now. Eventually, somebody has to do what Marcus Mariota did that one time (That One Guy In The Distance: make a fuckin’ playoff, you dorks!).

So, winning obviously has to be a metric when determining who the best returning starter is. Before you guys start: Yes, I’m about to be extremely hypocritical. I wouldn’t be a proper sports journalist (*DEEP COUGH*) if I wasn’t.

MARK GRONOWSKI - South Dakota State

This MF has already led SDSU to the FCS Championship Game TWICE. Once in the spring (that one pandemmy season) and once in the fall last season. Did I mention that Gronowski is going into his Junior year? No? Well, did I tell you that he’s 22-3 as a starter? No? Damn, did I tell you that he’s been a team captain since 2022?

This man is a WINNER, son.

While Group of 5 guys are stat padding in the basement of the Bowl Subdivision, this man is sending an entire state to a promised land it never knew existed.

Throwing or running for a TD against Iowa would have been nice (would have won them the game in a blowout, actually), but at least he didn’t do what sooooo many FCS guys do against Power 5 teams early in the season: completely tank his squad’s chances of winning. Also, you know a QB has the juice when he is winning for programs that are never televised (ESPN+ matters!), rarely have guys taken in the draft (i’m including RD 7, too), and are in parts of the country that have less than 900,000 people in the entire state. Yes, you read that correctly. There are more bandwagon Patriots fans left over from 2018 than the entire state of South Dakota has residents. Gronowski is doing the Lord’s work.

SAM HARTMAN - Notre Dame

Wake Forest would like a word. Sam Hartman is so honored to play for the great cathedral that is Our Lady in Christ, but he made his initial set of bones playing for a…wait…huh? That can’t be right.

How can a Deacon be from Hell?

Anyway, Hartman is a 17th year senior who has 12,967 passing yards under his belt. Unless he has a season BETTER Joe Burrow’s in 2019, he won’t be catching Case Keenum’s all-time record for career passing yards (19,217). HOWEVER, Hartman only needs a measly 1,112 yards to pass Rakeem Cato for 10th all-time in the history of college football. That certainly makes him a name my list should respect, as Hartman also has the chance to play for a program with the resources, tools, and schedule to make a run for the College Football Playoff. This means the Irish signal caller could net that elusive First Team All-American nod he needs to be eligible for the College Football Hall of Fame.

Storylines, people. Storylines.

SHEDEUR SANDERS - Colorado

HEY, why are you booing me??? I’m right!

Sheduer Sanders led Jackson State to its most relevant era on the field in a minute. Yeah, he lost both Celebration Bowls, but the developing star led his team to a 23-3 record while he was under center. Sanders also won the Jerry Rice Award (Best FCS Freshman), the Deacon Jones Award (Best HBCU All-Around Player), and the SWAC Offensive Player of the Year Award in 2022.

Look, you asked me who the best returning starters in the country were. I answered the question (lul).

Entering into his first Power 5 season, Sanders will have a lot to prove in the Pac-12. Like Sam Hartman, Sanders’ prolific production at his previous school was not enough to earn him a First-Team All-American honor. That means the Head-Buffalo-in-Charge (the Chief Buffalo is his daddy) will probably need to make the College Football Playoff for the first time as a starter to make the media tides swing his way.

JORDAN TRAVIS - Florida State

Mike Norvell probably gets fired if Jordan Travis doesn’t turn the corner last year.

After years of development and struggle, Jordan Travis tossed the rock for over 3,000 yards, led his compadres to a 10-win season, thrashed the Florida Gators (who had a Top 5 NFL Draft pick under center [LUL]), and won a bowl against….

Wait, FLORIDA STATE BEAT OKLAHOMA?!

AUSTIN REED - Western Kentucky

Former National Champion? Check (2019 for West Florida)

Bonkers ass single-season as a passer? Check (9-5 record with 389 completions, 602 pass attempts, 4,744 yards, 40 TDs, and 11 picks in 2022)

CUSA Newcomer of the Year Award? Check (2022)

Bowl game win WITH the MVP to match? CheckCheck (2022 New Orleans Bowl)

The resume speaks for itself. Yes, the National Title for West Florida was won in Division 2, but Reed made the MEGA D2 to FBS jump last year and did the best thing Western Kentucky (or any CUSA team for that matter) could hope to do - Win. A. Bowl. Game. And guess what, he’s suiting up for a college football team in 2023.

Which means….(Isiah Thomas: I fit the criteria).

CAMERON RISING - Utah

Played against the Heisman Winner in the 2022 Pac-12 Championship Game and blew the Heisman Winners’ Malibu doors off the frame and the hinges.

Was efficient and accurate all year with a 64.7% completion percentage.

20-8 record as a starter with 2 Pac-12 Championships to his name.

Uh, yeah. Cue the Isiah Thomas ad-lib again. (Isiah Thomas: I fit the criteria).

AFTER THIS BATCH OF GUYS,

the list gets murky.

Spencer Rattler was supposed to be the #1 overall pick. Then he sucked. Then he transferred to South Carolina and got…hmm.

DJ Uiagalelei got Dabo Sweeney to do something he’s never done before: Give up on his guys. Before we knew it, DJU was benched for a Freshman and Coach Sweeney started looking for new coordinators to replace his new coordinators. Damn, son; that ain’t good.

Bo Nix has a chance to break out (like, REALLY break out), but what will it lead to? Will pretty numbers be enough to win? Or will it all just lead to some team taking a “flyer” on him in the 4th round? We’ll see.

Jalon Daniels? Ha.

Jayden Daniels? Ha. Ha.

Tyler Van Dyke? Ha. Ha. Ha.

Emory Jones? HA. HA. HAAAAAAAAA.

SO, YEAH

The past 2 NFL Drafts have taken a lot out the sport. Even if I scour the rest of the FCS and Group of 5, I’m not gonna find a guy who’s better than Caleb Williams or Drake Maye. That means I have to make a decision based on the guys I already named in this article. And with that, I choooooooseee…

College Football Rivalries

College Football Rivalries. Rivalry: The Battle Of The Domes. Trophy: The Battle Of The Domes Trophy. Teams Involved: Idaho and Idaho State.

The first meeting was in 1916. Their latest meeting was this past season. There have been 44 total meetings. Idaho leads the series, 31-13.

The series was played annually for 31 seasons from 1965 through 1995, until Idaho’s move to the Football Bowl Subdivision (with Boise State), leaving Idaho State without an intrastate rival. Annual play has resumed since Idaho’s move back to the Football Championship Subdivision in 2018. The rivalry was at its most competitive in the 1970s and 1980s, with neither team three-peating; Idaho has won thirteen of the last sixteen and leads the overall series at 31–13 (.705). Since Idaho’s return to the FCS, the Vandals lead the trophy series at 3–2.

A notable game of the series was not even played. In the conference finale for both teams in 1978, a night game was scheduled for Moscow on November 11, and ISU planned to fly up to the Palouse that Saturday afternoon in two vintage airplanes. One developed engine trouble shortly after takeoff from Pocatello and returned. Both teams were at the bottom of the Big Sky standings and the game was not rescheduled; Idaho was granted a 1–0 forfeit win.

The "Battle of the Domes" theme began in 2017, and is applied to multiple sports. In opposite regions of Idaho and in different time zones, the driving distance between the campuses is over 530 miles (855 km) through Boise, and over 610 miles (980 km) if routed through western Montana and Coeur d’Alene, a popular choice as it is mostly interstate. The Battle of the Domes is currently sponsored by Idaho Central Credit Union.

Idaho State was the first of the pair to play its home games indoors, opening Holt Arena (originally ASISU Minidome) in 1970. The Kibbie Dome in Moscow was enclosed in 1975, after four years as an outdoor venue; the last two outdoor games in this series were played there in 1971 (debut) and 1973, then known as new Idaho Stadium.

Under accomplishments: Idaho State has a NC. Playoff Appearances – Idaho (11) and Idaho State (2). Bowl appearances – Idaho (3) and Idaho State (2). (Both teams are undefeated in bowl games.) Conference titles – Idaho (10) and Idaho State (8). Big Sky Conference titles – Idaho (9) and Idaho State (3).

Montana State routs William & Mary, 55-7 to reach FCS semis

Montana State routs William & Mary, 55-7 to reach FCS semis

South Dakota State: 2022 NCAA Division I FCS National Champions

FRISCO, Texas -- A different Dakota is celebrating a national championship nearly two decades after the border-state rivals moved up together to the Division I level.

"I continue to think back in 2004 and wondering how it was going to work out. Well, this is pretty sweet how it's worked out," coach John Stiegelmeier said after South Dakota State won its first Football Championship Subdivision title Sunday.

Mark Gronowski threw three touchdowns and ran 51 yards for another score as the Jackrabbits won 45-21 win over North Dakota State, which lost for the first time in its 10 FCS title game appearances since the move from NCAA Division II.

As a true freshman two seasons ago, Gronowski tore the ACL in his left knee on the opening series of the Football Championship Subdivision title game. Now nearly 20 months after a loss in that unprecedented spring finale, and after the quarterback missed the entire 2021 season, the Jackrabbits (14-1) beat their border-state rival for the biggest prize in coach John Stiegelmeier's 26th season at his alma mater.

"It's really a storybook ending for us,'' Gronowski said.

"We made a memory,'' Stiegelmeier said. "I live through our players and I always will, always have. And so my joy is great today because their joy is great.''

Amar Johnson rushed for 126 yards and Isaiah Davis had 119 for his ninth 100-yard game this season, and both scored touchdowns for South Dakota State. Gronowski, who completed 14 of 21 passes for 223 yards, had his scoring run on the third play of the second half to stretch the lead to 38-14.

"We knew NDSU was going to fight until the end of the game, and we knew that we had to come out in the second half and just start fast, score early,'' Gronowski said. "That's what we did there on that play.''

Cam Miller was 17-of-26 passing for 256 yards with two TDs and two interceptions for the Bison (12-3), who went from Fargo to Frisco for the 10th time in 12 seasons.

"So tough to lose,'' Bison coach Matt Entz said. "Not something we like to do, not something we're going to make a habit of at NDSU. But I'm more concerned about our players right now. … They'll bounce back, I know that.''

The Jackrabbits have won the past four meetings between the Missouri Valley Football Conference rivals, all in less than two years. The previous three had been in regular-season games for the Dakota Marker trophy that wasn't up for grabs in the MLS soccer stadium nearly 1,000 miles from the border of their states. It was their 114th meeting since 1903, but only the fifth in the FCS playoffs and first in the championship game.

South Dakota State's only previous FCS title game appearance was a last-minute loss to Sam Houston State in May 2021 after the lower-division season was pushed back to the spring because of the COVID-19 pandemic. The Jackrabbits beat NDSU in that abbreviated regular season, then again later that fall before a 23-21 win last October after overcoming a 21-7 halftime deficit in the Fargodome.

Johnson's 32-yard TD run broke a 7-all tie early in the second quarter. The Jackrabbits got the ball right back when Steven Arrell stripped the ball from running back Kobe Johnson, and Dalys Beanum recovered it at the Bison 34. Gronowski hit wide-open Jaxon Janke for an 18-yard TD four plays later -- Janke also had a 30-yard TD catch in the fourth quarter.

There was an exchange of 44-yard touchdown passes right before halftime. On third-and-1, Gronowski went forward as if he was going to try to run for the first down when he instead stopped for the line and threw to Mike Morgan all alone behind the entire defense.

"It means the world to me. And I've got to thank every single person that has helped me along this journey and the guys who played an awesome game,'' Gronowski said of his comeback from injury to being the game's most outstanding player and winning a championship. "There's no better feeling in the world.''

THE TAKEAWAY

North Dakota State: The Bison have a 44-4 record in the FCS playoffs, and missed a chance to match the record of 45 wins by Georgia Southern, which is now playing at the FBS level. They have only 14 losses overall since 2011, when they won the first of their record nine FCS titles, and six of those losses are to South Dakota State -- no other team has multiple wins over NDSU in that span.

South Dakota State: The Jackrabbits have won a school-record 14 games in a row since opening this season with a 7-3 loss at Big Ten team Iowa.

UP NEXT

North Dakota State opens the 2023 season on Sept. 2 in Minneapolis, one of the school's largest alumni bases, against perennial FCS playoff team Eastern Washington.

South Dakota State still hopes to fill an open slot on its 2023 schedule for Labor Day weekend. As of now, the first set game is Sept. 9 at home against 2021 national runner-up Montana State, which the Jackrabbits beat in this season's national semifinal game.
