FINALLY, CHAMPS: South Dakota State football wins FCS national ... (Sioux Falls Argus Leader)

The Jackrabbits completely dominated rival NDSU to capture the first championship in program history.

When the team arrives back in Brookings, they can put the Dakota Marker and the National Championship trophy on display, right next to each other, a permanent symbol of the most significant accomplishment in the history of South Dakota team sports. Chances are the Bison will strike back in this rivalry sooner than later. It was the first time in 10 national championships that NDSU ever trailed by more than a touchdown, but SDSU was just getting started. And let’s face it, they probably didn’t have the same sense of urgency. SDSU blew the doors off their rivals on Sunday, a 45-21 win in front of a crowd of 18,023. The Bison are still the 9-time champs.

South Dakota State Wins First FCS Title with Dominant 45-21 Victory ... (Underdog Dynasty)

The Jacks have done what many have seen as undoable. The Bison are FCS champs no longer.

For the Jacks and their fans this was one for the ages. NDSU was in a spiral and the experience was starting to get religious for South Dakota State fans. If any team was going to dethrone the Bison it was going to be this one. The Jackrabbits got the ball first in the second half and picked up right where they left off. With under a minute to go before half, the North Dakota State defense got a small victory by stopping Davis short on third down. Johnson cut it free to the outside and sprinted 32 yards for the score. Facing their largest hole in their championship history, the Bison needed a spark. It was Johnson’s seventh TD of the season and it gave the Jacks a 14-7 edge with 12:50 to go until halftime. Stoffel hauled in the pass behind the SDSU defense and rumbled over the goal line to knot the game up. The NDSU defense stifled Gronowski and company, forcing a quick punt. With the Jackrabbit faithful in a crescendo, it was Davis that gave them reason to erupt into a full-on madhouse. It didn’t take long for the Jacks to give their fans something to cheer about.

Gronowski hit wide-open [Jaxon Janke](https://www.espn.com/college-football/player/_/id/4368290/jaxon-janke) for an 18-yard TD four plays later -- Janke also had a 30-yard TD catch in the fourth quarter. 9 at home against 2021 national runner-up Montana State, which the Jackrabbits beat in this season's national semifinal game.

The previous three had been in regular-season games for the Dakota Marker trophy that wasn't up for grabs in the MLS soccer stadium nearly 1,000 miles from the border of their states. Johnson's 32-yard TD run broke a 7-all tie early in the second quarter. Gronowski, who completed 14 of 21 passes for 223 yards, had his scoring run on the third play of the second half to stretch the lead to 38-14. As a true freshman two seasons ago, Gronowski tore the ACL in his left knee on the opening series of the Football Championship Subdivision title game. "Not something we like to do, not something we're going to make a habit of at NDSU. Well, this is pretty sweet how it's worked out," coach John Stiegelmeier said after South Dakota State won its first Football Championship Subdivision title Sunday.
