Defenses lead North Dakota State, Sam Houston to title game
North Dakota State and Sam Houston State are true believers in the football bromide that offense may sell tickets, but defense wins championships. They have followed this philosophy all the way to the Championship Subdivision title game Saturday in Frisco, Texas.

In the FCS Huddle: 2012 to be filled with FCS storylines
Philadelphia, PA – In 2006, the use of Division I-AA was officially dropped and the division was renamed the Football Championship Subdivision.
And while on the surface it was a big change, in all reality it was the norm as the FCS goes through minor - and sometimes massive - changes each and every year.
Some years, the changes are big, like expanding the playoff field to 20 teams in 2010 and giving the Northeast and Big South conferences automatic bids to their champions. Other years, it could be as simple as a team completing the transition from Division II or NAIA to Division I (which seems to happen every year).
NDSU hopes to minimize FCS title game distractions
FARGO, N.D. (AP) — The road routine for the North Dakota State football team is routine: fly out Friday afternoon, eat, hold team meetings, go to bed, get up on Saturday morning and play a game. That won't be the case this week.
The NCAA Division I Football Championship Subdivision title game Saturday in Frisco, Texas, against Sam Houston State is a different animal that carries the potential for distractions. Bison head coach Craig Bohl addressed that concern with his team on Sunday
