NDSU lifts postseason ban after FBS transition, eyes bowl eligibility
North Dakota State University’s football program has cleared a major hurdle as the NCAA Division I Cabinet voted to lift the two‑year postseason ban that had shadowed the Bison since their move to the Football Bowl Subdivision. The decision permits NDSU to qualify for bowl games once it reaches six victories in a season, a milestone that could reshape the team’s recruiting narrative and fan engagement.
