"North Dakota State bludgeoned Montana State behind 380 yards rushing and 7.2 yards per carry against a strong Bobcats defense. Running back Kobe Johnson rushed for 106 yards, 76 of which came on a touchdown run in the second quarter. Fullback Hunter Luepke added 82 yards and three scores in an MVP performance for the champions. Quarterback Cam Miller threw for 126 yards and a touchdown on 13 passing attempts. The Bison posted 270 yards rushing in the first half alone behind All-American offensive linemen Cody Mauch and Cordell Volson, averaging an even 10 yards per carry, to take a 28-0 lead into the break. The Bobcats struggled to find any consistency on offense against the physical Bison front. Starting quarterback Tommy Mellott was knocked out with an apparent lower-body injury on the first drive of the game. In relief, Tucker Rovig completed just 13 of 28 passes for 156 yards, one touchdown and one interception. However, 100 of his yards came in the second half with the game out of reach".
