Watch Montana State-NDSU game today: Channel, time, streaming info

On January 7, 2025By Littum

Soon, college football will crown a national champion at the FCS level.

Montana State (15-0) faces North Dakota State (13-2) on Monday for the Division I FCS National Championship at Toyota Stadium in Frisco, Texas, which has hosted the past 15 FCS National Championships.

It will be a rematch of the 2021 national championship where, fascinatingly, both quarterbacks—Montana State’s Tommy Mellott and North Dakota State’s Cam Miller—started against each other before Mellott suffered an injury to Bobcats‘first drive. NDSU won the game 38-10.

The two veteran quarterbacks are both looking to go out with one last win before the end of their careers as they both exhaust their eligibility after Monday night.
