Grand Forks, N.D. - For the first time in school history, North Dakota will host Indiana State this Saturday. Kickoff between the Fighting Hawks and Sycamores is slated for 1 p.m.  inside the Alerus Center. The game will be televised on Midco Sports Two. It will also be carried on the Home of Economy Radio Network with a pregame show starting at Noon.

UND enters the contest with a 4-3 record and 2-2 standing in MVFC play after falling 27-0 at Northern Iowa last weekend. It marked the first time UND was shutout since Sept. 13, 2014 (L, 0-38 vs. Missouri State). In the game last week, the Fighting Hawks were limited to 187 yards of total offense, while the Panthers registered 402 yards of offense.

ISU comes into the weekend with an overall record of 0-7 and an 0-4 mark in the MVFC after falling 17-3 to No. 6/16 South Dakota last week. The game was deadlocked at 3-3 at intermission, but the Coyotes scored a pair of second-half touchdowns to come away with the victory. This season, two of Indiana State's losses in conference play have come by a touchdown or less: at Murray State (L, 28-30) and vs. Northern Iowa (L, 20-27).

This will be just the second meeting between North Dakota and Indiana State all-time. NoDak claimed the first game of the series last season, leaving Terre Haute with a 42-7 victory on Nov. 5.
