North Dakota State Finally Makes the Move: Mountain West Gets a Powerhouse

Our Summary
North Dakota State University's football team is reportedly being considered for a move to the Mountain West Conference. This development arises amid ongoing conference realignments impacting college football across the nation. North Dakota State, known for its dominant performance in the Football Championship Subdivision (FCS), has won nine national championships since 2011. The potential move to the Mountain West Conference would elevate the Bison to the Football Bowl Subdivision (FBS), aligning them with other prominent programs and providing increased visibility and opportunities for higher revenue streams through larger media and sponsorship deals. This transition, if finalized, would mark a significant shift in the college football landscape, adding a historically successful program to the Mountain West's lineup.
