A different Dakota is celebrating a national championship nearly two decades after the border-state rivals moved up together to the Division I level. "I continue to think back in 2004 and wondering how it was going to work out. Well, this is pretty sweet how it's worked out," coach John Stiegelmeier said after South Dakota State won its first Football Championship Subdivision title Sunday. Mark Gronowski threw three touchdowns and ran 51 yards for another score as the Jackrabbits won 45-21 win over Nort h Dakota State, which lost for the first time in its 10 FCS title game appearances since the move from NCAA Division II. As a true freshman two seasons ago, Gronowski tore the ACL in his left knee on the opening series of the Football Championship Subdiv ision title game. Now nearly 20 months after a loss in that unprecedented spring finale, and after the quarterback missed the entire 2021 season, the Jackrabbits (14-1) beat their border-state rival for the biggest prize in coach John Stiegelmeier's 26th season at his alma mater. "It's really a storybook ending for us," Gronowski said. "We made a memory," Stiegelmeier said. "I live through our players and I always will, always have. And so my joy is great today because their joy is great."Amar Jo hnson rushed for 126 yards and Isaiah Davis had 119 for his ninth 100-yard game this season, and both scored touchdowns for South Dakota State. Gronowski, who completed 14 of 21 passes for 223 yards, had his scoring run on the third play of the second ha lf to stretch the lead to 38-14. "We knew NDSU was going to fight until the end of the game, and we knew that we had to come out in the second half and just start fast, score early," Gronowski said. "That's what we did there on that play." Cam Miller was 17-of-26 passing for 256 yards with two TDs and two interceptions for the Bison (12-3), who went from Fargo to Frisco for the 10th time in 12 seasons. "So tough to lose," Bison coach Matt Entz said. "Not something we like to do, not something we're goin g to make a habit of at NDSU. But I'm more concerned about our players right now...They'll bounce back, I know that." The Jackrabbits have won the past four meetings between the Missouri Valley Football Conference rivals, all in less than two years. - So uth Dakota State/AP College Football

South Dakota State quarterback Mark Gronowski thought he had just twisted his ankle on the opening series of an unusual FCS title game two springs ago. It turned out to be much worse than that. Nearly 20 months after tearing the ACL in his left knee on a 3-yard run, and then missing the 2021 fall season that quickly followed, Gronowski is back in North Texas for another title shot. The Jackrabbits play Missouri Valley Football Conference rival and perennial Football Championship Subdivision champion Nor th Dakota State on Sunday. "Most people only get one chance to play in a national championship, if ever. Just to have the second opportunity and get a kind of chance to redeem myself and redeem the entire team, it's a blessing," Gronowski said Friday fro m a room overlooking the field where he got hurt in May 2021. "I just remember walking in the first time, just being like "Wow," like I'm excited for this moment and I can't wait to be in this game. And that's kind of the feeling I have again right now." The Jackrabbits (13-1) have won 13 in a row since a 7-3 loss at Big Ten team Iowa to open this season. That streak includes a 23-21 comeback win at defending champ North Dakota State in October - the same score of South Dakota State's title game l oss to Sam Houston State, which blew a 10-point lead before its winning touchdown with 16 seconds left. Gronowski was a true freshman during that pandemic-affected season when South Dakota State and veteran coach John Stiegelmeier made their first FCS ti tle game. After the quarterback's 3-yard keeper on the first play and a 16-yard pass, he got hurt in a pile at the end of another 3-yard run before a third-down incompletion on his last snap. In what is now his sophomore season, Gronowski has thrown for 2,743 yards and 23 touchdowns with only five interceptions. He also has 11 rushing scores. "Mark's comeback and his contribution to our football team is far greater than what you see on the field or in the stats. He's our best leader," said Stiegelmeier, in his 26th season at his alma mater. - AP College Football

Mark Gronowski threw for two touchdowns and ran for a third and top-seeded South Dakota State dominated fourth-seeded Montana State 39-18 on a frozen field Saturday in the FCS semifinals. The Jackrabbits (13-1), who have won 13 straight, head to Texas ne xt month for a Missouri Valley Football Conference showdown with third-seeded North Dakota State (12-2).

It was the coldest game ever played at South Dakota State. It was the third straight semifinal for the two teams. SDSU avenged a 31-17 loss last year at MSU. The teams swapped touchdowns on their opening drives and the n the Jackrabbits scored three straight touchdowns, shocking the Bobcats with two long scoring runs for a 28-9 lead at the half. Gronowski, who had a 36-yard hookup with Tucker Kraft to open the scoring, capped a 12-play, 69-yard drive with a 1-yard plun ge on the second drive. That gave him a rushing and passing TD in the same game nine times this season. The next two touchdowns were a 41-yard burst up the middle by Isaiah Davis and a 38-yard scamper by Amar Johnson on a field that played like a skating rink. Gronowski finished 10-of-13 passing for 189 yards and Davis ran for 158. - South Dakota State/AP College Football
