NDSU All-American Safety Cole Wisniewski To Miss “Significant Amount Of Time” Due To Foot Injury<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

NDSU will be without its best player for a “significant amount of time.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Head coach Tim Polasek said All-American safety and NFL Draft prospect Cole Wisniewski recently had foot surgery, and it is undetermined if he’ll be able to return this season. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wisniewski will be reevaluated in 8-10 weeks on how his foot is responding. Polasek also noted Wisniewski’s long-term future\/NFL aspirations as one factor in the decision on whether he’ll return this year. However, Wisniewski does have a redshirt available if he played in four or fewer games this fall, allowing him to return to college next year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wisniewski was PFF’s No. 1-graded FCS\/FBS safety last fall, totaling 92 tackles, eight interceptions, and five pass breakups.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Bison take on Colorado on Thursday, a team led by quarterback Shedeur Sanders that averaged 294.7 passing yards per game last year (No. 16 in the FBS).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

NDSU has two other notable injuries:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

All-American fullback and long-snapper Hunter Brozio is out with a season-ending foot injury.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Barika Kpeenu, who was expected to be NDSU’s starting running back to begin this season, is battling a knee injury and will be a Wednesday decision on whether he can play this week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Bison are currently 9.5-point underdogs at Colorado<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Montana State Gets 1st FCS Over FBS Win Of 2024<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Montana State earned the first FCS over FBS win this season, battling back from a 17-point deficit to beat New Mexico 35-31. Scottre Humphrey scored on a four-yard touchdown run with 10 seconds to go. MSU entered the game as a 13.5-point favorite, the biggest FCS over FBS spread since 2013.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Bobcats rushed for 362 yards, averaging 7.7 yards per carry while Tommy Mellott went 21\/32 throwing for 205 yards and two touchdowns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

MSU also enjoyed a guaranteed payout of $360,000. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are some enticing Week 1 FCS vs. FBS matchups that could result in more victories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Keep an eye on:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jackson State at Louisiana-Monroe
Lafayette at Buffalo
North Dakota State at Colorado
Fordham at Bowling Green
Sacramento State at San Jose State
South Dakota State at Oklahoma State
UC Davis at Cal
Central Arkansas at Arkansas State
Southern Illinois at BYU<\/p>\n\n\n
