GRAND FORKS, N.D. (AP) – Former Notre Dame football coach and current ESPN analyst Lou Holtz thinks North Dakota and North Dakota State should resume their football rivalry, but UND athletic director Brian Faison says there hasn’t been any movement on the issue for some time.
Holtz was in Grand Forks this week to speak at an oil conference. He suggested the Legislature take action to get the rivalry renewed
The rivalry stopped when NDSU moved from the NCAA Division II level to Division I in 2004. UND followed a few year later but the two schools are not in the same conference, and that has made scheduling a matchup difficult.
Last year, UND mentioned some possible dates in 2015 and 2017, but Faison says nothing has come of it.
