FARGO, N.D. (Dec. 11, 2021) – The ETSU Football team dropped a 27-3 decision to 2nd-seeded North Dakota State in the FCS Quarterfinals on Saturday inside the Fargodome in Fargo, N.D. With the loss, the Bucs conclude their season with an 11-2 overall record.

The Bucs finished the game with 165 total yards, including 66 in the ground game and 99 through the air.
