BISON FOOTBALL 2019 vs. butler PAGE 2

THE SERIES: This is the first meeting between North Dakota State and the Butler Bulldogs from the Pioneer Football League. NDSU is 3-0 against PFL teams including a pair of home playoff victo-ries over San Diego 45-7 in 2016 and 38-3 in 2017. The other matchup was the 2004 home opener against Valparaiso with NDSU winning 52-0 in the first game of its Division I era.

FRESHMAN LANCE TO QUARTERBACK BISON: Trey Lance, a 6-foot-3, 221-pound redshirt freshman from Marshall, Minn., will be North Dakota State’s new starting quarterback in this week’s opener against Butler. Lance played in two games last year against North Alabama and South Dakota completing his only pass attempt and rushing for two touchdowns. He will be the seventh starting quarterback for the Bison dating back to the start of NDSU’s Division I era in 2004. Five of the six previous QBs won their first start including Lance’s predecessor, Easton Stick, who led the Bison to a 28-14 win at Indiana State in 2015. First Start as NDSU Quarterback 2015 – Easton Stick, at Indiana State (W, 28-14) 2014 – Carson Wentz, at Iowa State (W, 34-14) 2010 – Brock Jensen, South Dakota (W, 38-16) 2009 – Jose Mohler, Missouri State (L, 17-21) 2008 – Nick Mertens, Austin Peay (W, 41-6) 2004 – Steve Walker, Northwestern State (W, 30-17)

BISON RETURN SEVEN FULL-TIME STARTERS: North Dakota State returns three offensive starters and four defensive starters from last year’s 15-0 national championship team. Offensive linemen Dillon Radunz and Zack Johnson return with tight end Ben Ellefson on an offensive unit that will have a new quarterback and lost 65% of its rushing yards, 80% of its receptions and 84% of its receiving yards. NDSU still has depth at running back where Ty Brooks, Adam Cofield and Saybein Clark combined for 200 carries, 1,391 yards and 12 touchdowns last year. On defense, the Bison return their leading tackler in Buck Buchanan Award candidate Jabril Cox at linebacker, second-lead-ing sack-getter in defensive end Derrek Tuszka, leading pass defender James Hendricks at safety, and cornerback Marquise Bridges.

12-GAME SCHEDULE: While 12-game regular season schedules are the norm for the Football Bowl Subdivision, this year’s 12-game schedule in the Football Championship Subdivision is a rare departure from the usual 11-game slate based on the 2019 calendar. Teams are not required to play 12 games. NDSU opponents North Dakota and Missouri State each have 11-game schedules with two bye weeks. The last time NDSU played a 12-game regular season was 2014 when the Bison beat Iowa State 34-14 in the opener and went on to win their fourth FCS national championship. The next 12-game schedule opportunity is in 2024.

BISON FOOTBALL 2019 vs. butler PAGE 3

COX ON BUCHANAN WATCH LIST: Junior linebacker Jabril Cox was on the 25-man preseason watch list for the STATS FCS Buck Buchanan Award presented annually to the top defensive player in the FCS. Cox finished fourth in the voting last year after being selected as the Defensive Player of the Year in the Missouri Valley Football Conference. He led the Bison defense and ranked 10th in the MVFC with 91 total tackles in 2018 and finished with 9.5 tackles for loss, 4.0 sacks, four intercep-tions including two for touchdowns, three pass breakups and seven quarterback hurries. He was the 2017 MVFC Newcomer of the Year and Freshman of the Year.

WEGNER ON WATCH LIST FOR FCS PUNTER OF THE YEAR: Junior punter Garret Wegner is on the preseason watch list for the inaugural FCS Punter of the Year award by the Augusta Sports Council, which has been home to the Ray Guy Award since 2000 honoring the nation’s best punters as the FBS level. Wegner was All-MVFC first team in 2018 averaging 43.0 yards on 59 punts, which was 11th in the FCS. He had 14 punts of 50-plus yards, a league-best 27 punts inside the 20-yard line, and another 16 fair catches. NDSU opponents returned 20 punts for just 3.3 yards per return and the Bison ranked sixth nationally in net punting with a 39.15 average.

FIVE PRESEASON ALL-AMERICANS: North Dakota State has five preseason All-Americans including junior linebacker Jabril Cox and senior offensive lineman Zack Johnson, who were each named to first teams by HERO Sports, Athlon Sports and STATS FCS. Junior offensive lineman Dillon Radunz was second team by HERO Sports, senior defensive end Derrek Tuszka was named to the STATS FCS second team and HERO Sports third team, and junior punter Garret Wegner was third team by STATS FCS.

PRESEASON ALL-CONFERENCE: North Dakota State led the way with six players named to the Preseason All-Missouri Valley Football Conference team. Offensive linemen Zack Johnson and Dillon Radunz joined linebacker Jabril Cox, safety James Hendricks, defensive end Derrek Tuszka and punter Garret Wegner on the first team. NDSU had three honorable mentions in tight end Ben Ellefson, defensive tackle Cole Karcz and long snapper Ross Kennelly.

CAPTAINS: North Dakota State’s six captains in 2019 selected by a vote of team members are safety James Hendricks, cornerback Marquise Bridges, running back Ty Brooks, tight end Ben Ellefson, offensive lineman Zack Johnson and defensive end Derrek Tuszka.

MERCADEL GETS SIXTH YEAR: After missing the 2018 season with a knee injury, North Dakota State linebacker Aaron Mercadel has received a sixth year of eligibility in 2020. That news brings NDSU’s current senior class to just 14 after the Bison boasted their largest outgoing class ever with 24 seniors on the 2018 team.

BISON ON 21-GAME WINNING STREAK: North Dakota State owns the longest active winning streak in the FCS at 21 games, which is second longest in Missouri Valley Football Conference his-tory and tied for sixth longest in FCS history behind the record 33-game Bison winning streak from 2012 to 2014. FCS Longest Winning Streaks 33 - North Dakota State, 2012-14 26 - James Madison, 2016-17 24 - Montana, 2001-02 24 - Penn, 1992-95 22 - Harvard, 2013-15 21 - North Dakota State, 2017-present 21 - Colgate, 2002-03 21 - Montana, 1995-96

15-TIME NATIONAL CHAMPIONS: North Dakota State won its 15th football national champion-ship in 2018. NDSU claimed three College Division national championships in 1965, 1968 and 1969, five Division II titles in 1983, 1985, 1986, 1988 and 1990, and was the first team in college football history to win five straight national titles with FCS crowns in 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014 and 2015 before winning again in 2017.

BISON WIN RECORD SEVENTH FCS TITLE: North Dakota State has won seven of the last eight FCS championships to surpass Georgia Southern’s record of six FCS titles.

NDSU Head CoachMatt Entz

n 2018 Football Scoop FCS Coordinator of the Year

Matt Entz was named head football coach at North Dakota State for the 2019 season after five seasons as NDSU’s de-fensive coordinator. He is the 31st head coach in program history. This is the first head coaching job for Entz, a 21-year veteran assistant with 15 years of experience as a defensive coordinator and eight as an associate head coach in two programs. At NDSU, he’s been part of five Missouri Valley Football Conference championships and four NCAA national championships with the Bison. Entz, who was named the 2018 FCS Coordinator of the Year in his third time as a finalist for the award, has led a Bison defense that allowed less than 14 points per game over his five seasons as the defensive coordinator and consistently ranked in the top five of FCS in scoring defense and total defense. NDSU had eight FCS All-America honorees on defense the past five seasons, including line-backers MJ Stumpf, Nick DeLuca and Jabril Cox. Two of Entz’s former linebackers, DeLuca and Chris Board, are currently playing in the NFL. The Missouri Valley Football Conference is familiar territory for Entz. He came to NDSU in January 2014 under head coach Chris Klieman after one season as the associate head coach, co-defensive coordinator and defensive line coach at Western Illinois in 2013, and spent three previous years at Northern Iowa. He was named defensive line coach in 2010 at Northern Iowa and assumed the de-fensive coordinator duties at UNI in 2012 after Klieman departed for NDSU. Entz was the defensive coordinator from 2002 to 2009 at Winona State, where he was promoted to associate head coach in 2003 and was with the defensive line for three years before becoming linebackers coach in 2005. He was named the AFCA Division II Assistant Coach of the Year in 2008. Prior to that, Entz was the assistant head football coach and linebackers coach at Wayne (Neb.) State from 1999 to 2001 and the defen-sive coordinator at Illinois College in 1998. He holds certification from the National Strength and Conditioning Association and served as an assistant strength and conditioning coach dur-ing his time at Wayne State.
