Five Football Games To Be Televised In 2008; Sunday Evening Show Added

FARGO, N.D.--Five North Dakota State University football games will be televised this fall, including two road games, four statewide broadcasts, and national coverage of the Northern Iowa game on Fox College Sports. NDSU broadcasting director Jeremy Jorgenson made the announcement today.

In addition, the Craig Bohl Football Show will re-air after the late local news Sunday nights on KVLY-TV as part of a new two-year television contract between NDSU, KVLY and KXJB-TV. The show will continue to air live on KXJB-TV and statewide NBC affiliates at 10:30 Sunday mornings.

"We are very happy to be associated with Bison athletics for two more years," said Charley Johnson, general manager for KVLY and KXJB. "Our sports and production teams enjoy and take great pride in producing Bison football and basketball games, as well as the Craig Bohl Football Show."

Home games against Southern Illinois (Oct. 4), Western Illinois (Oct. 11) and South Dakota State (Nov. 22) will be carried live on the North Dakota NBC Network. Kickoff for the Western Illinois game was changed from 6 p.m. to 3 p.m.

The Youngstown State game Sept. 20 will air live on KX4 only. The Northern Iowa game Oct. 18 will be live on FCS and the North Dakota NBC Network, and tape-delayed on FSN Midwest.

"We are excited about our televised game schedule this year," said NDSU athletic director Gene Taylor. "We were able to add a couple of road league contests for our fans that can't make those trips, which was one of our goals. We are also pleased our television partners KVLY and KXJB will produce three of our home games across the state."

Single-game tickets go on sale at 8 a.m. Friday, August 1, at the Bison Sports Arena ticket office and online at GoBison.com.  For group tickets or more information, call toll free (888) 231-NDSU.
