2025 Game 5: Illinois State

[tony]

The Red Birds are the 2nd ranked opponent in a row that NDSU will face (5 of NDSU's next 6 opponents are ranked.)

4-0 Oklahoma only rushed for 103 yards against them. Their lines are huge, and Rittenhouse is a very mobile QB.

Edit: Last year, NDSU held ISU-Red to 8 yards rushing (.3 ypc). Going to be tough to top that.
