The participants for the Badlands Bowl were announced for the North Dakota team. Five of the 34 member team that will play the Montana All-Stars in Miles City are NDSU recruits. These future Bison are Tyler Jangula, Zach Harrington, Alex Belquist, Tyler Roehl, & Jerimiah Wurzbacher.

What doe the Montana side look like? Any future Bobcats or Griz on the team? Also, will any Montana TV station show the game?

Bison_Kent,

I haven't seen the roster yet, but I was wondering if you think ND has a chance to win the game this year? The last (what is it, six) few games have been pretty non-competitive, other than last year, which was a good game from what I read/heard. Is the game being played in Miles City or Dickenson this year? And, if you know the date, would you please let me know? I was thinking about attending this years game to take in the festivities.

The game is in Miles City and will be this upcoming Saturday according to the Fargo Forum:

Montana has won 8 of the 10 games played. Hopefully, the ND squad can make the game competative.

Trib and Gazette articles re: Badlands game. Looks like numerous kids did well on all fronts (MSU, UM and Frontier Conf.). Everyone's happy. I was surprised to not see Mason Ophus's name mentioned. Anyone know the skinny? Did he play?

I thought he and Torrey Thomas were the best prep players in Montana last year. For whatever that's worth.

I am very surprised at the final score. I think last year's game was 27-13 or something like that. Even though Montana is killing ND in the series, 9-2, I believe now, I hope it continues. Many of these players just might see each other on the field in their college days.

Our states are so similar.....I absolutely can't understand the disparity. I guess this is why there are more NDSU recruits coming from out of state than in state.
