North Dakota State in the underdog role in a playoff game usually isn’t something you see, so I can understand why many may be siding with the underdog here. However, as I said in the semifinal write up, the South Dakota State Jackrabbits have been the best team in the FCS from start to finish, and they’ve blasted the competition up to this point. South Dakota State’s lone loss this season came in its season opener against Iowa, and most would agree it outplayed the Hawkeyes in that game as well. South Dakota State wins its first national title. I’ll lay the points.
