FARGO, N.D. (AP Sept 11, 2012) – North Dakota State University remains atop the Football Championship Subdivision coaches’ poll this week,
after a 22-7 weekend win over Colorado State, a Football Bowl Subdivision team.
But the defending FCS champion Bison, who are off this week, got
bad news Monday when an MRI confirmed that starting safety Colten
Heagle suffered a torn knee ligament Saturday.
He is out for the season.
NDSU starting linebacker Travis Beck, named the most valuable
player in last season’s FCS title game, was due in court Tuesday to
plead guilty to an alcohol offense over the summer.
The University of North Dakota received votes in this week’s FCS
poll after a 45-37 win over Portland State on Saturday but did not
crack the Top 25. UND travels to San Diego State this Saturday.
